Life Change

This morning, during my quiet-time, I just felt a tugging on my heart to share with you something I had read the other day.  The article was about encountering Jesus and the understanding that it just isn't enough to have Bible knowledge...we must know it's Author and be in love with Him.  "Therein lies the difference between religion and relationships". 
You know, when God shows up,  peoples lives are changed!  I have seen it many. many times! It's one of my favorite things in life is to SEE...LIFE CHANGE!  When you really encounter the love of Christ and come in contact with the Holy Spirit things happen!!  Amen! Here is what I read:

Armies tremble.

Nations fall.

Victories are won

The lame walk.

The blind see.

The deaf hear.

The unsaved repent.

The dead are resurrected.

When God comes near, there is an obvious trail that tells of His visit.  When He performs miracles in our lives, we should be changed and drastically different.  What has He done for you?  Remember when He...

resurrected your hope

resurrected your marriage

resurrected your finances

resurrected your children's spiritual lives

resurrected your career

resurrected your health

resurrected your heart for Him

An encounter with God is life-altering.  When He does these things and overwhelms us with His boundless love and power, there should be a radical difference in your lifestyle and attitude of worship.  We should...

work differently

play differently

react differently

measure success differently

eat differently

love differently

parent differently

spend money differently

serve differently

Every aspect of our lives should be different!  (And We are Changed)
