Think about it for a minute…..
God is good and wants only good for us…..He is willing to cause our thoughts to become agreeable to His will…….and He is thrilled when we are established in peace and experiencing success.
What would our day look like? ——Peaceful, successful and joyful!
What would our week look like? —-Peaceful, successful and joyful!
What would our month look like? Our year?? Our life???
Yes, peace, success, and joy—-every day of our lives. When I first had one of these kinds of days, I asked God if it would be alright with Him if I had two in a row. I am sure He got a chuckle out of that. God is good every day and because He is a generous and loving Father, He wants us to partake of His goodness as much as possible. The more we are willing to submit to His leadership by committing our plans to Him, the more involved He will become in our lives. I am learning that God wants way more for me than I want for myself. His definition of “good” is way more advanced than what I can even conceive of.
Again, think about this for a minute:
That is what is meant by the Scriptures which say that
no mere man has ever seen, heard, or even imagined what wonderful things
God has ready for those who love the Lord.
1 Corinthians 2:9 (TLB)
And how about this???
Now to Him Who……is able to [carry out His purpose
and] do superabundantly, far over and above all that we [dare] ask or think [infinitely beyond
our highest prayers, desires, thoughts, hopes, or dreams]—
Ephesians 3:20 (AMPC)
Now that’s living the joy-filled life!!
