Affirmation of God: Jesus defines me.
Today’s Scripture: Galatians 1:1 (ESV): Paul, an apostle--not from men nor through man, but through Jesus Christ and God the Father, who raised him from the dead— Paul made it clear who defined him as an apostle, didn’t he? Jesus and God the Father and not man define who we are. Paul asks a great question in Galatians 1:10: For am I now seeking ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I rejoice with inexpressible joy.
I can not explain it; can’t express it but the joy God puts in my heart replaces the dread and anguish that once resided there.

Romans 7:18: And I know that nothing good lives in me, that is, in my sinful nature. I want to do what is right, but I can’t. (NLT) Most of us find comfort in Paul’s statement in Roman’s 7:18 don’t we? Hey if Paul struggled maybe I am not so bad! In Celebrate Recovery this is the biblical comparison for STEP 1. We have to admit we are powerless ... Continue Reading »
Affirmation of God: I present myself to God as being alive from the dead.
Overwhelming, that is what this God thing is. Choose Him and you will not be disappointed. No not disappointed but blown away. This is one of those days where God is overwhelming me.
