To love like, means to live like Jesus!

I will identify, for anyone who is interested, that one of my spiritual gifts is LOVE - Agape love.  Over the weekend though I was challenged by the Holy Spirit to evaluate where I have fallen short in loving people.  This post is not to point out shortcomings in anyone; it's a reminder for me.  Perhaps you are able to identify with me on the need to evaluate/re-evaluate the function of love in your life; feel free to connect with me about it. I'd love to hear from you - we can encourage one another to love better; to love like Jesus. It would have probably been very easy for Jesus to hang out with people that lived righteously, followed the Torah and attended Temple every Sabbath, lived innocent lives never having made a poor choice, or transgressed the law in a deliberate attempt to self-medicate hurts, loneliness, anger or loss.  I'm sure from the instant He reached the age of accountability, He could have walked out of his home and found life easier not needing

Praise Him!

I apologize for the crazy movement from the camera. There was no way I could be still with the Spirit of praise & worship that was happening in the house! It has been years from the last time I was in such a gathering; and I loved it. Such services are reminiscent of my childhood having been raised in a Spirit filled church by Pentecostal A/G pastors.  For full transparency, I did my share of dancing, jumping, shouting and rejoicing. The proof that it can be done, even in 4" heeled boots, was in the resulting soreness of my calves the next day! LOL  

Worship Wednesday

Today is affectionately known across Christian circles on social media as #worshipwednesday and as  a worship leader, I like to put choruses together and create a medley of choruses from writers and artists that may never actually get the chance to work together on a project.  These two choruses came together for me during some private worship moments earlier this week. Thanks for allowing me to share them with you for Worship Wednesday. There is none like You No one else can touch my heart like You do I could search for all eternity long and find there is none like You I searched all over couldn't find nobody Looked high and low still couldn't find nobody Nobody greater, nobody greater  Nobody greater than You I do not own these choruses or the rights to them.

The Me Keeper

1 Peter 1:3-5 KJV 3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, which according to his abundant mercy hath begotten us again unto a lively hope by the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead,  4  To an inheritance incorruptible, and undefiled, and that fadeth not away, reserved in heaven for you,  5  Who are kept by the power of God through faith unto salvation ready to be revealed in the last time.

Love Note = Happy heart

Love Notes make a happy heart happier and Like Notes make any heart joyful. I adore Love & Like Notes, because, well... they make my heart happy :) So, okay, I'm a girl and that's just how my world works. Tell someone that wouldn't expect it, how much you appreciate them. Chances are, they could use a boost. Love on someone today! PS - here's a note that I got today :)

Refuge in God

Psalm 46:1-3 For the choir director: A song of the descendants of Korah 1 God is our refuge and strength,     always ready to help in times of trouble. 2 So we will not fear when earthquakes come     and the mountains crumble into the sea. 3 Let the oceans roar and foam.     Let the mountains tremble as the waters surge!

Purity of thought is crucial!

Philippians 4:8 (KJV) "Finally, brethren, whatsoever things are true, whatsoever things are honest, whatsoever things are just, whatsoever things are pure, whatsoever things are lovely, whatsoever things are of good report; if there be any virtue, and if there be any praise, think on these things."
