For the DROOPING

Have you thanked Him?

Have you praised Him?

Have you made it your priority to agree and cooperate with Him today?

Have you taken that deep breath and listened for what He has for you today?

1 Timothy 2:1 (The Message)

The first thing I want you to do is pray. Pray every way you know how, for everyone you know. 

Romans 15:13 The Passion Translation (TPT)

Now may God, the inspiration and fountain of hope, fill you to overflowing with uncontainable joy and perfect peace as you trust in him. And may the power of the Holy Spirit continually surround your life with his super-abundance until you radiate with hope!

I was decompressing a little last night.  15 events in the first 19 days of April has “taken its toll”.  Almost 4000 miles of travel since April Fools and I am not fooling when I say I am a little “whipped”.  But I have another AWESOME weekend and week of OPPORTUNITY ahead though, so I need a little “boost”; a little uplift!

I think it lies in that passage from ROMANS.

GOD is CONTINUOUS INSPIRATION!

Look what He “continuously does”! 😉

Gives us:

A little sunshine mixed with VITAMIN D.

Spring smells.

A welcomed cup of coffee.

An invigorating conversation.

A needed word!

Not to mention that GOD is a FOUNTAIN of HOPE!

...an unshakeable hope! 

We have this certain hope like a strong, unbreakable anchor holding our souls to God himself. - Hebrews 6:18-19 (TPT)

And THOSE serve to FILL US!

Fill us ENERGY for when we are weary!

Fill us with PEACE for when we are “anxious” about all the things that were left to do today because there just wasn’t enough time to get to all of them previously

Fill us with JOY by shifting the narrative of another full day from burdensome to blessed!

And you must love the way that Paul and the PASSION wrap that little promise: That the HOLY SPIRIT will ENVELOP us with ABUNDANCE; more than we NEED for what is in front of us today!!! 

You revive my drooping head; my cup brims with blessing. – Psalm 23:5 (MSG)

How are you feeling today?

You know you can’t go ONE day without HOPE!

And the GOOD news is GOD has PLENTY of it and some other “SUPER ABUNDANT” "stuff" for you today!

Open you heart and mind to them!

Soak them in!

Bask in them!

No more drooping!

Radiate HIS hope!

Remembering that…

Hope is the thing with feathers that perches in the soul and sings the tune without the words — And never stops at all.” -Emily Dickinson

Never stops at ALL!

Have a BLESSED weekend my friends!

Love you all!
