About That Life: Living Life To The Fullest... God's Way!

"The Domino Effect"I'm sure we are all familiar with stacking dominoes in various patterns just to later watch them all neatly fall down.  Just as you reach out to tip over the first domino to set off the chain reaction, such is LIFE. Our words and actions have powerful effects on others.  Every time you something to people to encourage or discourage them; or do something to serve or disserve them; you make an impact on their lives.  Then those people go on to impact others around them in similar ways.  God calls every follower of Jesus to give a "kingdom tip" to the domino in front of him or her.  Our words and actions cause a consequential and exponential impact on the lives of others around us.  Each person impacted because we intentionally touched just one.  Though we seldom see past the domino in front of us, we can trust God to take our seemingly inconsequential actions of obedience--spiritually prompted prayers, inspired words and individual encounters--t

"Be Filled"Romans 8:26-28 The Message.  Meanwhile, the moment we get tired in the waiting, God’s Spirit is right alongside helping us along. If we don’t know how or what to pray, it doesn’t matter. He does our praying in and for us, making prayer out of our wordless sighs, our aching groans. He knows us far better than we know ourselves, knows our pregnant condition, and keeps us present before God. That’s why we can be so sure that every detail in our lives of love for God is worked into something good.Before Jesus was crucified He promised that God would send "another counselor" in His place who would refresh, empower, Lead and keep us connected to him.  The Holy Spirit was sent to dwell in our hearts and remind us that we've been adopted into the family of God. The Holy Spirit also keeps us in line with the will of God.  We can't fulfill God's dream without being filled with the love and power of the Holy Spirit.  Paul states in Ephesians 5:18 we are to be filled with the spirit.
