♥ The next level.
So inspired by the book of James, it speaks so much into my life now.
Really feel so encouraged by a lot of the verses in there, too many to list...
In particular,
" 19 So then,my beloved brethren, let every man be swift to hear, slow to speak, slow to wrath; 20 for the wrath of man does not produce the righteousness of God.
21 Therefore lay aside all filthiness and overflow of wickedness, and receive with meekness the implanted word, which is able to save your souls.
22 But be doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving yourselves.
23 For if anyone is a hearer of the word and not a doer, he is like a man observing his natural face in a mirror; 24 for he observes himself, goes away, and immediately forgets what kind of man he was.
25 But he who looks into the perfect law of liberty and continues in it, and is not a forgetful hearer but a doer of the work, this one will be blessed in what he does."
- James 1:19-25
Jasmine! It's not just about THINKING in the head in your mind anymore. It is time to make things HAPPEN, to make things MOVE, to EXECUTE!
"For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also."
- James 2:26
Just like how a body without spirit is dead, how faith without works is dead, thinking without action is dead too.
So powerful.
Studies, CCH, everything - Feeling hard-pressed especially after today, but Yes I will breakthrough! All things are possible with God.
Your ways are higher than my ways. God, lift my thoughts. Let me fly on eagles' wings. No limitations.
Oh, lift it higher.
