Where does God dwell?
This weekend the question became posed in my mind, "Where does God dwell?"
In the past He dwelled in the temple,
In the past He dwelled in cloud,
In the past He dwelled in a burning bush,
In the past He dwelled behind a very thick curtain,
In the past He dwelled on a mountain,
BUT THE CURTAIN HAS BEEN TORN.
THE GATE HAS BEEN OPENED
THE BRIDGE RESTORED
In the present He dwells in my heart,
In the future He dwells in my heart,
For the rest of eternity He will dwell in my heart,
No where else, but my heart.
He does not dwell in the building, people call the church, but in the hearts of the people that make the church. His presence is in each of us, not the building. Wherever we are at, wherever we may be, He dwells within us. As we give him praise and honor with the honoring of the temple, which is our body. We worship him, with song, praise, joy, and dance. We give him thanks through song and dance. We worship him in everything we do, walking, talking, etc.
"a time to weep and a time to laugh,
a time to mourn and a time to dance"
a time to mourn and a time to dance"
Ecclesiastes 3:4
Even David, a man after God's own heart, danced! Give Praise to our Lord and Saviour through our whole selves, in everything, everything we do!
2 Samuel 6:13-15
13 When those who were carrying the ark of the LORD had taken six steps, he sacrificed a bull and a fattened calf. 14 Wearing a linen ephod, David was dancing before the LORD with all his might, 15 while he and all Israel were bringing up the ark of the LORD with shouts and the sound of trumpets.

Are we all to you, just lost causes
Life can get difficult... life can get hard... life can get downright intolerable...
When my head is aching, hurting, it is hard to think, hard to sleep, hard to do anything. My week has been tough this week, realizing my weaknesses, realizing, just realizing.
Tomorrow is a new day, new life, new hope, new energy, new day to continue putting my faith in God.
Realizing that he will give me strength in my hard times.
Keep fighting, keep pushing, keep up the good fight....you'll make it. He says to me.
So I will continue fighting, continue pushing, continue the good fight, and I will make it.

The World
The World
Why is it so hard to live in as a believer in Christ? because we are not of this world. We are "only visiting this planet" as Larry Norman would say. Just visiting, that's it, not from here, did originate here, just visiting. I have been sheltered just a little bit in my Christian bubble, most of the friends are Christians, same beliefs, but once again I was exposed to the world and I guess you could say I didn't like it....I was uncomfortable, bored, a little shocked at some of depraved language and conversations going on.
In a world, where absolute truth is irrelevant, where there is no black&white, but lots and lots of gray, where each person decides what is right based on what they feel, where there is morality only when it fits in with their individual lives.
Just yesterday I read a verse:
"In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.”
John 16:33b
So I guess God was telling me yesterday, to take heart, because Jesus has already overcome the world!
I will leave you with this video:

Mirror, stays the same
Life is a mystery
with all of it's history
young and old
for all to behold
through the years
we stay like mirrors
reflecting ourselves
every time we open our mouths
If you thought we evolve
look back as the world revolves
we've never changed
our thoughts always deranged
beginning of time
the same desires
the end of time
the same desires
always increasing never ceasing
always binding never releasing
They hold us until we scream
and our Father rescues us
from these never ceasing
desires of our hearts
with all of it's history
young and old
for all to behold
through the years
we stay like mirrors
reflecting ourselves
every time we open our mouths
If you thought we evolve
look back as the world revolves
we've never changed
our thoughts always deranged
beginning of time
the same desires
the end of time
the same desires
always increasing never ceasing
always binding never releasing
They hold us until we scream
and our Father rescues us
from these never ceasing
desires of our hearts
