April 29, 2009, Not One Hour

I am so thankful to be a part of such amazing experiences lately. To be able to see God's glory in death and resurrection as it shows up in so many lives. To be able to live and experience God's Amazing Grace, through the total dying of my'self' and reemerge into a beautiful person from within, and the experiencing through the senses all the beauty within here, and out there. How can we ever explain in words what is happening? We are so limited in our vocabulary to express God's amazing Love, and what He did for us, coming to be one of us, and dying for us to redeem us from our'selves'. Fear is constantly dying to be anything more than I am, fear is constantly dying to anything that is contradictory to what He is teaching me about His Great Love and how He always takes care of us.

Matthew 6:25 "Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more important than food, and the body more important than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Who of you by worrying can add a single hour to his life? 28 "And why do you worry about clothes? See how the lilies of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you, O you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, 'What shall we eat?' or 'What shall we drink?' or 'What shall we wear?' 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. (NIV)
