July 29, 2013 - NO Sweating Allowed

Another week and lots of opportunities for success. Love, love this. Starting new is a good thing. Yes? While I am thinking about it, I have been approached by several about starting Life Group again. Let’s do it! We will continue to meet the first Sunday of each month, but in August, I have a previous commitment on August 4th. So, I am opening my home on August 11th for Life Group to launch. Here’s the BIG SECRET. On that night, we will be filming portions of our meeting for a promo video to be used at our church, as my pastor wants to really encourage participation in these groups. So come with your dish to share, a recipe to share (12 copies), your favorite shirt on, and bring a friend. I really feel God wants us to start praying more for healings. Don’t know exactly what this means, but let’s share and pray! I believe God wants to touch His people. Amen! Please let me know if you can attend, so we can adequately prepare. I was in the pool Saturday morning working out REALLY hard but never sweating or struggling as the water cushioned every move and allowed my knees to do things they cannot do outside the water. I felt as if I was “in a miracle.” I was at total peace! I was reminded that life in the Spirit is like this. Because the Spirit of the Lord is upon us (Isaiah 61) and in us (Acts 2), our journey is designed to flow and move in ways that are beyond our natural limits. God doesn’t promise a perfect journey, but He promises to constantly surround our day’s activities and issues as we move in Him and provide our journey with supernatural help. God never wants us to worry or fret but trust Him and lean not to our own understanding. Can anybody other than me admit that sometimes that is not as easy as it seems? God is HUGE; He never loses, never fails, never hiccups, never has to think through His “best” solution. He’s God. AND….He’s like the water in the pool constantly wrapping Himself around me and assisting my journey in HIM. Without God – fretting, struggling, sweating. In God, moving with ease. Yea, baby! Oh, I smile as I type that. I can’t imagine a better place to put my entire trust. Can you? Let go and LET GOD. PK
