Day 37 ~ Reflecting by the River

John 3:8 ~ The wind blows where it pleases. You hear its sound, but cannot tell where it comes from or where it is going. So it is with everyone born of The Spirit

As I reflect by the river, that gentleness of the wind is present. It's soothing breeze just feels good. For some reason along the river it seems to always be changing. Whether it is in direction, forcefulness, or calmly settling-down. One thing for sure. You feel it. You might not see it, buts it is present. It is within the air we breathe, visions we see, intimacy we are experiencing. It is serving a heavenly purpose within everyday life. The wind blows  generated within The Lord Our God. It is a free-gift of undeserved grace from heaven above. Living hope blowing within our everyday life. 

It is within that gentleness nudging our life to do something, talk to someone, or just live still. It is within that passion of agape love within our heart, the gospel of truthfulness within our mind, the intimacy of living hope within our soul. It is vibrantly alive within our very inner-core of thriving life. That inner-core where Christ Jesus sacrificially lives That inner-core where the Holy Spirit protectively dwells. That inner-core where Abba Father is actively engaging our sinfulness. That inner-core where The Lord Our God lives to intimately cleanse, redeem, and restore all our brokenness. All our sinfulness. Remember.  All. It is everything. Including our life. It is within every moment. It is the life our life is actively living within everyday life. 

Remember. Our life is free-gift like the wind blowing within many directions. Our sinfulness is serving a purpose among this world of ungodliness. Like the wind cooling, soothing, and redirecting. Our uniqueness is engaging real people living real life. The Holy Spirit is actively using our life of true-repentance in mightily ways. We might not feel it, or even see it. But live reassured; our life is serving a purposeful passion. We do not just intimately exist. The agape love of Christ Jesus living within our heart must be intimately shared. That protective guidance of the Holy Spirit dwelling within our mind must be truthfully lived out. That intimate promise within Abba Father to never leave us, never forsake us, never abandon us within soul must be shared. That everlasting life within the winds of heaven above living vibrantly within our inner-core of thriving life must blow everywhere. Blowing living hope without fear, without hesitation, without knowing who our life might or might-not be engaging. 

Just live among a world of ungodliness. Discipleshipping boldly, courageously, fearlessly within The Lord Our God. Blowing the cleansing, redeeming, restoring life-changing undeserved grace vibrantly alive. Living within our blessed uniqueness. That free-gift of sacrificial forgiveness within Christ Jesus. That free-gift of protective guidance within the Holy Spirit. That free-gift of everlasting life in heaven within Abba Father. That free-gift living so freely with intimate purpose to be blown vibrantly among a world living within satan's ungodliness. Our discipleship: it is blowing within living hope. This is not complicated. Just live loving the unloved. Forgiving the unforgiven. Not worrying about being seen. But our discipleship being intimately felt in life-changing ways. Just live our blessed uniqueness engaging everyday life. Blowing cleansing, redeeming, restoring living hope. Our discipleship: it is blowing within all directions. Blowing the winds of living hope, agape love, sacrificial forgiveness, everlasting life in heaven. Blowing new life within God the Father ~ God the Son~ God the Holy Spirit ~ Amen ...
