thoughts for the sojourn ...

We are sojourners.
Called to swim not tread water or merely stay afloat
Called to His purpose
Sanctification

Perfecting ...

His thoughts not our thoughts
Not the natural but the supernatural
Not the norm but the peculiar

Those who will leave and cleave
Those who will be salt not become salt
Those who will be light not cast shadows

Those who will glorify Him not them
Those who want His power for His not theirs

Those who listen for His voice not hear their own

Those who won't travel with extra baggage but trust His burden is light and His provision is right
Those who are not looking to God's blessings but blessing God

Those who put on Christ
That drink His water and not the world's
 those who are discerning not looking/taking surface things but the deeper things of the Spirit.

Let His Eyes be Your Mirror

from a young lady on facebook ... beautiful; she and her words of  wisdom ...

"encounter with the Father ... He allowed me to see myself through the eyes of His son Jesus and I cried like a baby because for the 1st time in my life I felt beautiful and I understood that He had made me according to His purpose for my life. I no longer feel insecure about my outside appearance bc it's what the Father wanted me to look like, and if that pleased Him then it pleased me. I worry about my inside appearance and being beautiful in heart and spirit so others can see the Jesus in me. Love yourself bc the Father lovingly created and fashioned you in his own image."
