Live Liberated!

Be free...let yesterday go...joy comes to you...see the light at the end of the tunnel...be optimistic in your thinking...great things await...don't be afraid where the day takes you...wellcome all possibilities...a new opportunity lies around the corner...it's a new day...everything is different...live the liberated life today!

(pause the playlist...the last half of this really builds well with the music)



Today I will not be overcome by sorrow, because weeping may endure for the night but joy comes in the morning.

Today the Bright and Morning Star shines on me-and through me. It's a new day and everything is different in my world than it was before.

I demonstrate that His mercies are new this morning by my determination to live the liberated life today.

Time is Redeemed for You!

There is a...time for every activity under heaven.
Ecclesiastes 3:1


Yesterday while driving home, feeling a little frustrated that I didn't have enough time, I stopped myself and said, "no, you have all the time in the world".
I continued the self talk, "I say that time is redeemed for you, and God restores what was taken away!"
Isn't there an old Rolling Stones song that sings...time, time, time, is on my side...yes it is!?

So...celebrate your triumph over time. Escape the trap of being dominated by deadlines.computer animation of a clock and businesspoeple


God moves in the eternal, effortlessly, and He moves in us.

Jesus said over and over and over again not to worry or stress out over things. The first summer lily outside my breakfast room window this morning reminded me of that...

and although it was "time" for the grass to be cut, I saw the constant reminder of Christ's words on the tall yellow dandelions that speckle my backyard moving with the flow of the breeze.
-Not even Solomon in all his splendor was adorned like one of these. If that's how God adorns the grass, how much more will your Father in heaven take care of you.

So I say...move with the flow of life and the flow of the timeless Holy Spirit where the river of eternity transcends the time-bound world system.

Time is redeemed for me!...Time is redeemed for you!
