Daily Huddle - Sat Aug 24, 2019 Driven Or Drawn

Love you all, praying for you!
 
God challenging me recently.  Are you driven or drawn?  By what?  Most people are driven by fear or greed.  Most people are drawn by temptation, or the pleasures of the world.  Are you driven? Or Are you drawn?  What drives you?  What draws you?  Have you ever pushed a rope?  You can’t get anywhere with it.  It gets all wrinkled.  Life is a lot like that.  It’s a path, and when you push on your own – trying to make things happen, sometimes your path can get wrinkled… taking all kinds of twists and turns, that sometimes have you even going backwards.   Driven – urged forward by force; impelled to move, constrained by necessity.  Drawn – Pulled; hauled; allured; attracted.  Jeremiah 31:3 – The LORD appeared to him from afar saying, “I have loved you with an everlasting love; Therefore with lovingkindness I have drawn you.  Praying that you will be drawn by His loving kindness, and if anything drives you – it would be neither fear nor greed, but the desire like Jesus – to obey fully His Heavenly Father – everything that He has assigned you today, so that you will walk in the good that He has for you.  Two of my favorite words ever.  What If?  What if you remembered today - the everlasting love that God has for you?  What if you walked in His lovingkindness today?  What if you worked for Him alone – with all your heart – in the joy that He gives?  What if you really lived in PiVAT today? - confirming with Him what He has for you in this hour.  What if you would overchoose His presence today… coming back to worship and more PRISM time with Him, choosing it over other things you could choose?  What if you would overpraise today?  To speak out loud who He is and what He has done, more often than you’d normally do?  What if you were drawn by his infinite love for you?  What if you obeyed no matter what He said.  What if you gave your testimony today – just what God did and is doing, to one more person than you would normally engage?  What if you helped them discover their testimony, what God has done for them?  Praying that you would be fully submerged in His love for you today – fully walking in every step that He has.  There is good waiting there.  Beyond what you would even imagine. 
 
Love you all,
