Many people consider the amassment of
things, money, recognition, position, education, man-made religious titles,
secular or religious authority, secular or religious control and possessions as
success in life, some consider it as living
life.
Life doesn’t consist of one’s
possessions. It is not found in what one owns or controls. It doesn’t even come
from finding the "right denominated church." True life, quite simply is the
practical, knowable and experiential presence of God as reality in daily life
living. It is an inner sense of assurance and confidence that we are loved by
Him and His provision is ours and our whole being is not only in His hands but,
we are in Him and He is in us and the evidence of such is that He works through
us in the engagement of His purpose as the community of the redeemed in the
community of humanity. This life isn’t derived from things or good
circumstances, but in fact supersedes them. Living His life will endure the most
adverse circumstances and we will allow these circumstances to transform us to
be a reflection His love and purpose the the community of humanity. People live
in its beauty and serenity even in the most severe places of need or
pain.
Jesus promised that His followers,
(believers) again and again that His kingdom would flood their hearts with the
abundance of life. He compared it to a spring of refreshing water flowing out of
them and assured them that living His life had in mind the fullness of our joy
even in the midst of adverse circumstances. These are the promises and
assurances of living as a believer.
But not all
believers find their way into that reality...For...it is not found in religious
rituals or practices, it is not found in denominational adherence, it is not
found in secular or religious positional recognition. A lot of people go through
life searching for life living peace but experience a seemingly endless cycle of
dissatisfaction, spiritual emptiness and
frustration?
Real life living will help you
find freedom from flesh-focused attempts to to work for or please God in and of
ourselves, and allow us to live His life in the abundance of reality as His
loved child, loving the across-our-path people we
meet.
Religion does NOT bring the satisfaction
of life living!
Jesus IS the SATISFACTION of
LIFE LIVING!
