In Christ Alone

Hello Papa. I was directed to Ephesians by Your Spirit this morning especially:

Ephesians 1:3  Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, who has blessed us with every spiritual blessing in the heavenly places in Christ,

You know how my mind works PapaGod. I just got to wonderin’

  Wonderin’ how do we live “in Christ Alone” in this busy distracting world?

    how do we live in the Lord’s Strength and  Power of Christ alone, Papa?

    how do we live in Your full armor in Christ’s Alone?

    how do we live in Christ Alone’s Spirit’s blessings in us for us with us?

    how do we come to know our Sufficiency in all things in Christ alone?

    how do we come to know Who Christ Alone is for us?

    how do we come to know What Christ Alone has done for us?

    how do we become warriors for the Kingdom thru Christ Alone’s Victory?

 how do we come to a place to depend on Christ Alone, not ourselves, our jobs, our identity,

Our homes, possessions, our daily routines, our family, friends, our strengths, wisdom….?

 how do we in Christ alone receive all the riches in heavenly places as ours?

 how do we take hold of all Christ Alone has taken hold of us and for us?

 how do we stand in Christ alone for our life today?

 how do we finish in Christ Alone sharing His Gospel?

 how do we prepare in Christ Alone’s future Kingdom with Him?

Yes, PapaGod,

JUST WONDERIN’ how do we believe, receive and live out our lives in those blessings–everything we need for life and godliness in Christ Alone?

      2 Peter 1:3   For His divine power has bestowed upon us all things that [are requisite and suited] to life and godliness, through the [full, personal] knowledge of Him Who called us by and to His own glory and excellence (virtue).

For His sake I have lost everything and consider it all to be mere rubbish (refuse, dregs), in order that I may win (gain) Christ (the Anointed One),

9  And that I may [actually] be found and known as in Him, not having any [self-achieved] righteousness that can be called my own, based on my obedience to the Law’s demands (ritualistic uprightness and supposed right standing with God thus acquired), but possessing that [genuine righteousness] which comes through faith in Christ (the Anointed One), the [truly] right standing with God, which comes from God by [saving] faith.

At the End of the Day

Good Evening Papa, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit. I like the end of the day. It’s a time to wind down and think about relaxing and restoring by resting. Yes, resting in You thruout the nite, You speak to me. I thrill at Your voice speaking, instructing, sharing, delighting me with Your thoughts. My thoughts are so shallow it seems to me, Papa. Yet You delight in communicating with me in the night seasons. I wonder, Papa, do You smile at some of my silly thoughts? Do they make You laugh? I would delight to hear You laugh more, PapaGod.

Back to end of day subject. The rush of morning is gone with its list of “to dos”. The nite and quiet are settling in. time to relax and let my thoughts wonder a bit. I wonder, Papa will we have time to daydream in heaven? Will there be no nite or day? Yet will there be nite and day on the new earth? Its all mind boggling and exciting Lord–the things You have ahead for us, for me. What will we be doing together? Will we go on heaven’s non-time, or the new earth’s time?

I wonder, will we be helping each other plant gardens of food and flowers to share in the vast community of heaven and earth?

Will there be an “end of day” in those days–where we wind down from activities and be still to spend time knowing You?

It’s good PapaGod, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit just to have some cherished moments at the end of these earthly days, thinking on You and our life to come together!

I Love You Papa, Lord Jesus, Holy Spirit yes, at the end of the day.
