JOURNAL=MY ROOTS ARE GOD AND FAMILY




















JOURNAL=3-17-15=MY ROOTS ARE GOD AND FAMILY




“Do you want to be well?” John 5:6


Of course-WE all want to be WELL-don't we-well physically-well emotionally-well SPIRITUALLY-well financially-WELL-in every area of our life


BUT-some people suggest that the ROOT of our gifts is ALSO the root of our sins-I THINK-it is UP to us to MAXIMIZE the gifts that GOD gave us-while at the same time DIMINISHING our negative faults-NOT an easy thing to do-BECAUSE the root-the same QUALITY where our gifts come from-is also the same quality where our sins come from-but it CAN be done-IF we maximize our CONNECTION with the SPIRIT OF GOD


SAY YES to God-and let your GIFTS outshine your sin-and the GIFT that ALWAYS keeps SHINING-IS the LOVE of GOD and the love of others


it is a GREAT day to be ALIVE in GOD'S LOVE for us-and a great day to let OUR GIFTS SHINE






MY ROOTS
ARE IN GOD AND FAMILY




WHERE are your roots
What gives you LIFE?
What SUSTAINS YOU
In life


The ANSWER
To all those questions-
FOR ME
Are in God and family


GOD GAVE me life
Once-at birth
And numerous times thereafter-
In countless medical emergencies
On my birthdays


“NOW CHOOSE LIFE
So that you
And your children
May live


And that you
May love
The Lord your God


Listen to his voice
And hold fast to him


For the Lord
IS YOUR LIFE


And he will give you
Many years


In the land
He swore to give
To your fathers
Abraham-Isaac-and Jacob” Deuteronomy 30:19-20


CHOOSE GOD
CHOOSE FAMILY


Outside of God
it is MY FAMILY
Who has SUSTAINED me


My parents and sisters
For accepting me
FOR WHO I AM


My nieces
And my extended family
(and all of my friends)


“Consequently
You are no longer
Foreigners and aliens


But fellow citizens
And GOD'S PEOPLE
And members of GOD'S HOUSEHOLD” Ephesians 2:19


You are MEMBERS
Of the household
Of God's own family


GOD is your adopted father
Jesus is your adopted brother


And the ROOT of God
LIVES INSIDE of you
Inside of all of us


IF you haven't been active
In being a part of GOD'S FAMILY
It is time to start


Between BELONGING to God
And the family
I was born into
I FEEL
Like God gave me
EVERYTHING that I need


MY ROOTS
Are in God and family


“I Jesus
Have sent mine angel
Unto these things
In the churches


I AM THE ROOT
And the offspring of David
And the beginning and morning star” REVELATIONS 22:16


BECAUSE I belong to God
Because I belong to Jesus
Because of the love
OF MY FAMILY


I continue to GROW in love


Because my ROOTS
ARE IN GOD AND FAMILY
