Why did they do it in
the first place? They gave what they had
. . . to help others. There were some that
felt they virtually wasted a year of their life . . . at least that is what some
said . . . when they returned. They believed
that they were a part of a life-changing opportunity. What
was the truth?
The thing is . . . when
individuals collide with the power of
God. . . lives change.
How
often do we live life with limited vision?
We struggle seeing
beyond our own life. Since the ancient days, humanity has looked for a way to
be saved from living with limited perspective. The presence and power of God is
the unseen reality of this world, a
bigger picture than just our own life and circumstances.
Take time to think about the man
that could walk for the first time in his life because his life intersected with
Peter and John who were filled with the Spirit:
He
jumped to his feet and began to walk. Then he went with them into the temple
courts, walking and jumping, and praising God. (Acts 3:8)
The
man’s life had never changed. He had
lived the same way all his life . . . unable to walk . . . until Peter and John
stopped what they were doing . . . saw him . . . and reached out through the
Spirit of God. The reality of freedom . . . healing . . . and wholeness was
given and received . . . completely dependent on the Spirit of God. His world collided with God.
Collide with God.
Refuse to start your day without
seeking Christ first.
Ask Christ to give you eyes to see what He sees in your world.
See more than your own needs.
Slow down throughout the day to see more than yourself.
Ask God to show you what He sees in specific individuals and/or situations.
Proceed through your day with new vision.
Ask Christ to give you eyes to see what He sees in your world.
See more than your own needs.
Slow down throughout the day to see more than yourself.
Ask God to show you what He sees in specific individuals and/or situations.
Proceed through your day with new vision.
Learning with you to KICK START the day . . . colliding with the presence and power of God.
