Be Fed with your Bible

 Be Fed with your Bible

Anyone will tell you that I absolutely love a hot cup of something first thing in the morning. Mostly it's my love affair with coffee, but on occasion I will have a cup of chai or tea. I can admit that when I don't have it, I'm just not right, sort of like getting out of the wrong side of the bed (an old cliche' I know). More importantly, when I'm not face first in my bible, I'm left to my own devices. I'm left to my own thoughts and fleshly ways in dealing with my day. God says to meditate on his word day and night. You can't do that if you don't spend time in your bible.
No more excuses. Make it a daily habit to read God's word.

Don't have time? Get up 20 minutes earlier. Or spend the last 20 minutes of your day reading your bible.
Don't have a bible? There are a bazillion bible apps that can be on your phone or computer.
Don't know what to read? You can research that too, on the internet for reading plans.
Don't understand what you are reading? Pull up an online sermon or follow a favorite pastor and open to what they're preaching on.
Need others to help you along? Go to church. Find a small group that studies the bible in their home or online. Join an online community group. Ask other friends or family to join you in this thirst for digging deeper in the word.
"This Book of the Law shall not depart from your mouth, but you shall meditate on it day and night, so that you may be careful to do according to all that is written in it. For then you will make your way prosperous, and then you will have good success."--Joshua 1:8
"But he answered, “It is written, “‘Man shall not live by bread alone, but by every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”--Matthew 4:4


PRAYER

Lord, thank you for your word. It is indeed a lamp to my feet and a light to my path. Help me see daily what scripture you have for these eyes to read and this mouth to recite. Pour your message out and into my heart. I long to learn more about you and your ways. I want to grow closer each day to you and follow your ways for me. I know that through endurance and through the encouragement of the scriptures I can have hope. Your word is so much more comfort to me than my cup of coffee and I am more energized by your word than caffeine! Thank you God for planting me face first into your word. I am only delivered by you leading me where you would have me go. In Jesus mighty name, Amen.
We are better together.
Have a blessed day, Kimala

Wading through Grief

Image
  Wading through Grief The nature of grief seems to spill into other areas of our lives while we attempt to navigate it's shores. We can begin to believe we got a better handle on it, creating boundaries to keep it tucked inside, but it can spread quickly and overtake the lines we draw in the sand. So true. As you stand on its shores, can you see what's ahead? Look for the smallest sparkle of light. God knows your heart. He knows what pains you deeply. He sees you long for what and who you miss so dearly. Recognize your desire to replace the hole that was left inside of you. Fill it with God's goodness and let His love wash over any areas that have left you feeling high and dry. What you thirst for, He has for you. "He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds."--Psalm 147:3 Soon, you will recognize that grief was a gift He provided to help you swim to the next new shore. New territory can spring forth new beginnings. Yes, it will look and feel different. ...

Our Body is a Temple

  KIMALA'S CORNER Our Body is a Temple Consider this: what have you done for yourself lately regarding your physical self care? Do you actively engage in exercise or strenuous activity to get it moving and burning excess calories? Do you conciously choose healthy eating options and promote good healthcare? Do you make regular appointments for dental and physician routine check ups? Do you take care of your outward appearance regarding your hair, face, skin, nails, etc? How about mental self care? Do you only intake that which would do you well, pondering, contemplating and considering your mental thoughts? Do you carefully screen what you watch, listen to and read? Do you take opportunity to unplug and unwind by resting yourself? How about spiritual self care? Can you consider your time each day with the Lord, reading his word, watching Christian movies, listening to spiritual leaders on Podcast and radio? Are you involved with a ministry or bible study with your church? Are you he...

Exceeding Love

Image
Exceeding Love We cannot comprehend it. This kind of unconditional love. The outpouring from a Savior who would give anything for us--longing to have relationship with you and I. No man or woman walking this Earth can compare or even come close to loving you the way that Jesus does. No one. Today, dig deep inside to fill the hurt, anger, pain, upset, anxiousness, worry or disappointment with the One True God. His love is exceeding--His love is healing. Allow yourself to be filled to measure--what does that mean exactly? Well, in my mind, it means to the tippy top!!!! He loves you that much. "and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God."--Ephesians 3:19 We are better together when we are Splashed in the Spirit.
