He's Alive --- Are you? Cont.

He's Alive! Are you? If Jesus lives in your heart then you should be very alive today. So many times we live so far beneath what Jesus intended. When He endured the cross HE thought of you? Are you fully receiving the gift of Jesus Christ and living life to the fullest?

Self-Esteem can be a negative thing for women in keeping them from being alive and living! If your self-esteem is holding you back it is time to take steps to turn it around. Give it to God and live life like Jesus intended! God created you with purpose! Are you walking it out and fulfilling it? OR, are you just sitting, whining and complaining? Sad to say that is what some of you are doing, but whining and complaining will not get you anywhere. Are you stale and stagnate? If you are waiting on someone to tell you that you can do something then stop waiting. God is waiting on you to take some steps of faith and get busy. He is alive in you, right? Then act like you are alive and get moving. Move with the intensity that you know Jesus Christ lives in you. Greater is He that is in YOU , than that which is in the world. HMMM> That is a scripture girls! Stop living beneath what Jesus Christ paid the price for you to have. Reach out and grab hold to truth and get moving. With each step you take things will get better when Jesus is the leader. Encourage yourself! Do not wait on others to do it for you. Jesus is alive and He is alive in you so don't live beat down, discouraged and as if your life is over. Pick yourself up and get moving with Jesus! He is alive! Are you living life as if He is alive in YOU?

This feels like a good kick in the back side. Maybe that is just what we need sometimes. Be encouraged! You are so valueable and God is pleased with His daughters. You are a masterpeice, you are free, forgiven, and new in Christ. Live like it today! There are so many scriptures for this. I'll name a few and you go in search of some more! Ephesians 2:10, 1 John 4:4, Col. 2: 13-14, 2 Cor. 5:17

Be blessed!

Jesus made the choice!

Enjoy this poem for today! Happy Easter. He's alive and I can live because of the choice He made!

The to be continued will follow in the next day or two. Be sure to stop back by. Blessings! Lesia


Choices

Arrested in the Garden of Gethsemane,You could have called on heaven's armies;yet You allowed them to take You captive.

Falsely accused in a mockery of a trial,You could have denied who You were;yet You convicted Yourself.

Physically and emotionally abused,You could have struck down Your tormenters;yet You remained silent and turned the other cheek.

On the way to the cross,You could have thought only of Yourself;
yet You spoke with compassion to Jerusalem's daughters.

Nailed to the cross and spit upon by the crowd,You could have cursed Your enemies;
yet You prayed, "Father, forgive them."

Taunted to "Come down from the cross!"You could have done exactly that;
yet You chose to suffer and diethat I might have the choice to live in You.

Marlene BagnullReprinted from Spring 1984 issue of Face-to-Face

He's alive.. Are you Alive for Him?

He's Alive!!

Happy Easter to all! I am so thankful that I serve a living God. A God that is alive in me everyday! I can rejoice in WHO I AM because of WHO HE IS! I am nothing without Him, but with HIM I can be the woman He created me to be.

He created you with a purpose, destiny, and joy to walk out life to the fullest. Think on these things. As Jesus went to the cross He thougth of you. He knew that one day you would need a Savior, so He had to perservere. He went for it all with you in mind. I encourage you to show God glory and go for it all with Him in mind! He did it for you, so show Him glory by doing the same. How can you show Him glory? Ask the Holy Spirit to show you . It may be just the words of your mouth, the little things you do. Look around. You are God's glory because you are His daughter, and He created You . As you look in the mirror reflect on His glory. As you reflect on life reflect on His glory. Go for it all... Keep Him in Mind as you go through life. May your life bring Him glory! He's alive! Are you ALIVE for Him?

Happy Easter!

Thomas Nelson Book Review.

The New Generation Mp3 Bible Review

The New Generation Mp3 Bible is great for tweens and teens. I wasn't sure at first how I would like it. The Bible is presented by great speakers that add some pizzazz to the recordings. It is presented in a way that it will appeal to the younger generation. The younger generation are all into the technical stuff so this is a great tool for them to hear God's word. This would be nice for a long drive to listen to the Word. I listened and passed it along to my 16 year old. Thanks for taking the time to minister to the teen generation. It is definetly worth getting for a teen.
This MP3 Bible can be purchased at your local Christain book store.
