Love is beneficial, sacrificial and futuristic. Love thinks ahead of the present troubles to protect the relationship long term.

The mercy God gives everyday is the refreshing water that we have always needed. It is consistent with His nature! The water (or mercy) will increase as the days go by, yet we cannot be water repellent. When I go to water my plants it is only because I see the leaves are limp and wilted. after giving them enough water within an hour their leaves stand tall and strong with luster. Likewise with God the Father, he sees us and he knows when to bring the water that will revive our soul.

I was working at the hotel front desk, i checked the man in; then proceeded to ask what the make and model of his car was, so i could charge for parking. He looked up to the ceiling and said "I don't know its a rental, ive been riding in it for so long that i forgot what it was." That caught my attention immediately, it hit me deep. I found myself forgetting what the end result is supposed to be. What am i supposed to hold on for? What will the end result look like? And as i dwelt on this, i got weary in spirit. Then i remembered "faith shows the reality of what we hope for; it is the evidence of things we cannot see." (Hebrews 11:1) So i prayed... Lord help my unbelief, give me strength to carry on even when i have lost the original plot. Holy Spirit please help me to find it again and locate the altar i left. Amen.

Healing was made available for those who are in Christ. But we must want it ourselves too. Jeremiah 6 :14 says "you cannot heal a wound by saying its not there!" Acknowledge what is wrong, painful, embarrassing, haunting, and inconsistent within yourself so that it can be dealt with according to the Word of God. Not just the good things.

Paul tells Timothy "with this encouragment use your prophecies as weapons as you wage spiritual warfare by faith and with a clean conscience" (1 timothy 1:18 passion transition) Prophecy over your life can be declared as an act of warfare to counter the thoughts, feelings, and discouragement that comes against your faith, thus keeping your mind clear. Wow! Thats good to know
