“The impulse to pursue God originates with God, but the out working of that impulse is our following hard after Him; and all the time we are pursuing Him we are already in His hand: “Thy right hand upholdeth me.””

- Spurgeon

I heard a great message through Hosea this morning on how God’s love is relentless and how we are to display this relentless love to others, and I really wanted to share! Isaiah Qualls reminds us that we are a reflection and representation of God to those around us. He posed the question, “Who in your life are you telling a lie about God to?” Is the love I give in my relationships with people a relentless love as God gives to me? Happy Tuesday!

You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous person, though for a good person someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.

Romans 5:6-8

When I think truly about just how good God is and how holy and righteous He is… I am SO blown away that He loves me though I continually fail Him, and He loved me even when I was in lost in sin… and loved me so much that he sacrificed His only begotten Son—Jesus—perfect and holy—in the most unbearable way of punishment, that I might draw near to Him and spend eternity in His presence and in His grace.

I am so unworthy, but still You love me… I can’t believe it. Thank You, Jesus. Thank You, God for Your love for me. I am so captivated by You.

“There is no place for laziness and indulgence of the body in a disciplined pursuit of holiness. We have to learn to say no to the body instead of continually giving in to its momentary desires. We tend to act accordingly to our feelings. The trouble is, we seldom “feel” like doing what we should do. We don’t feel like getting out of bed to have our morning time with God, or doing Bible study, or praying, or anything else we should do [like love others]. That is why we have to take control of our bodies and make them our servants instead of our masters.”

“Earthly kingdoms have a purpose in that they restrain wickedness and preserve order, but they are very different from God’s kingdom, and should remain separate and distinct.
The heavenly kingdom, exemplified by Jesus and the cross, is based on love, sacrifice, humility, and righteousness… Christians must take care that they live and serve with the power demonstrated by the cross, not the power of Rome. The key to living in Jesus’ kingdom is not found in trying to rule over others or things, but in being more fully ruled by God.”

- David Guzik (Commentary on John 18)

“What I am anxious to see in Christian believers is a beautiful paradox. I want to see in them the joy of finding God while at the same time they are blessedly pursuing Him. I want to see in them the great joy of having God yet always wanting Him.”

- A. W. Tozer.

Reminds me of Jeremiah 29:13. :)

I ran out of pages in my notebook so the application overflowed onto post it’s! :) I really enjoyed the sermon I just listened to by David Platt on Revelations: The Triune God, and I really wanted to just share it with you all! :) Let us continue to pray fervently, give sacrificially, obey the Lord confidently, and daily die to ourselves willingly in light of the GLORY of God and His excellency! :) also, Ephesians 4:1! :) Let us live a life worthy of the calling we have received! Happy Friday! :D #encouragement #godisgood #ptl #reminder (Taken with Instagram)

Do not let your adorning be external—the braiding of hair and the putting on of gold jewelry, or the clothing you wear—but let your adorning be the hidden person of the heart with the imperishable beauty of a gentle and quiet spirit, which in God’s sight is very precious.

SUCH A GREAT message and way to revive my soul after a day in the heat. I strongly encourage and urge brothers and sisters to watch this if you have about an hour to spare!! :) Especially if you are struggling in your walk with the Lord… I think this is such an encouraging and convicting reminder to continue to persevere in your faith! :)

Sorry it’s from the same series I keep posting about in Revelations, but GAH! It’s SO GOOD! Please watch ittttt! :)
