I loved the messages at church today. So good.
We can speak from our opinion or we can have rivers of living water from our belly – God speaking through us to other men and women. How do we do that? We are always feeding the old man or we are feeding Christ in us. When the Disciples decided to go fishing after the resurrection Christ invited them to come and dine with Him. Satan’s main objective is to get us to live in anything outside of our position in Christ. What he has, what the world has and what we have in our natural produces a famine in the land no matter how much we eat. When Christ invites us He gives us a new level of food that can bring such amazing paradox in our lives. We can have tragedy but have hope and joy in the midst. We have God living in us. We have eternal life. Simple but profound. Sometimes so simple that we complicate with our natural man.

On another note… Downton Abbey was so heart wrenching tonight. I know it’s just a Masterpiece Theatre drama, but man oh man, it has really crushed my heart for our current troops (based in Britain during WWI). To think of the sacrifice they make to go and then they come back whole but never the same but sometimes they come back physically altered as well. What an effect it must have on them and their families. I am so grateful and my heart breaks.
