Colossians 3:23 (NIV)-

  Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters,

The Maestro of my life is the Creator Himself! 

The ivory and ebony keys sit waiting for hands to bring it to life. Without hands to tickle the ivory keys it doesn’t to anything but sit and wait. It sits in dead silence…

So too we wait as the keys do.  We wait to come to LIFE. Just as the keys for the hands of the LORD bring us to LIFE. For it is the LORD who is the Creator of all things. We sit and wait, until His hands of grace bring all creation to LIFE.

He is the Maestro for my symphony that plays in my heart and soul which is created only by the LORD. It is He alone who brings me to LIFE.  He brings all to LIFE!

When we do all things, anything at all- we need to do it for the LORD. Not humans…but GOD!  He alone is the reason for all things. He is the reason for the piano itself!

Colossians 3:24 –Knowing that of the Lord ye shall receive the reward of the inheritance: for ye serve the Lord Christ.

The rewards and promises that come from knowing the LORD and His Word and His love are beyond all human comprehension but suffice to say – it is a worthwhile way of LIFE. But then again there is NO LIFE without Him. AND for me- He is my LIFE. He is my delight and joy!

Psalms 37:4 (KJV) – Delight thyself also in the LORD; and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.

The LORD is my joy, and it is my desire to please Him and all that He is. When we do all things for Him and seek Him – He will bring you the desires of your heart. He is faithful, He is precious, and His hands of grace are unlimited in extending it to His children who follow Him.

Do you do all things for the LORD? Do you realize He is the Maestro of Your life, and only through Him do you come to LIFE?

“LORD, thank You for being the Maestro over my LIFE, and bringing me to LIFE with Your hands of grace, I am at Your service, and at Your feet in worship, may I do all I can to honor You with my existence all the days of my life, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

 

 

DEAR GOD: Your Water & Light Complete Me~

The Stream of Living Water

God is the source of all life and light. He created the sun, the moon, and the stars to illuminate the earth and to mark the seasons and times. He also created the sea and the sky and filled them with living creatures.

He is the fountain of life, and in His light, we see light. He gives us living water, which is His Spirit, to quench our thirst and to cleanse us from our sins.

He is the light of the world, and whoever follows Him will not walk in darkness, but will have the light of life.

He is the basis of all things for all things, humans, creatures, nature and otherwise. In Him we have a sanctuary and an everlasting protective armor. With Him we can accomplish things with relative ease through His power and name. Without Him we are baseless in all we endeavor, which is to say it’s an exercise in futility, we won’t be able to do anything in the way we would with Him in our lives.

His everlasting Light and His Living waters complete me as it should all of His followers and those of faith.

When you see the Light from sun, whom do you think of?

When you see the rushing moving water, who do think of?

“Dear LORD, Your Light, Your Living Water, and Your love complete me, in Jesus’ name, Amen.”

– Genesis 1:3
And God said, “Let there be light,” and there was light.

– Genesis 1:14-15
And God said, “Let there be lights in the vault of the sky to separate the day from the night and let them serve as signs to mark sacred times, and days and years, and let them be lights in the vault of the sky to give light upon the earth.” And it was so.

– Genesis 1:20
And God said, “Let the water teem with living creatures, and let birds fly above the earth across the vault of the sky.”

– Psalm 36:9
For with You is the fountain of life; in Your light we see light.

– John 4:10
Jesus answered her, “If you knew the gift of God and who it is that asks you for a drink, you would have asked him and he would have given you living water.”

– John 8:12
When Jesus spoke again to the people, he said, “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life.”

“But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.”

(2 Corinthians 4:7)

 

The showmanship of bragging was something that always irked my soul. I was never a fan of individuals bloviating/boasting/bragging/loving themselves to the point of ad nauseum, is something I could never tolerate!

Having been blessed to grow up in a family that held strong morals and Christian beliefs, I found it odd when people gave themselves credit for overcoming things, issues, or circumstances, it was just wrong in my eyes!

Can’t they see what we do we do is only because of God and His gifts from above. That we in fact gain wisdom and knowledge through Him and His word? We are not the doers but the vessels in which we do!

Can’t people realize when something of importance is accomplished through our words or actions, that it is in fact, “GOD WHO USED US” for that purpose?

And incidentally, He uses ALL His Children. He doesn’t pick only those with the proper education and experience. Nor does he pick strictly those graduates of the most prestigious theological institutions in the world.  NOPE!

He uses us all for HIS purpose and HIS will for HIS glory.

When we are tuned into the LORD and are ready to serve Him, He will use us according to His plan and purpose for our lives.

We were made by His hands and only He can “fill us to capacity” the likes of which we can be poured out and utilized.

You are His possession—for His purposes—and for His honor.

In His hands, we were fully made and designed. We are completely repaired and highly maintained. We are washed and cleansed (by His most precious Blood) Keep your eyes on the King! Trust Him fully in the process.  Believe in Him without any doubt.

And finally, remember this:

“It’s not what YOU do.

Instead, it is what GOD does through you!

 

 

 

 

 

 “If a man therefore purge himself from these, he shall be a vessel unto honor, sanctified, and fit for the master’s use, and prepared uno every good work.”

Timothy 2:21

“Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, what makest thou?”

Isaiah 45:9
