So, what's the “good” work that we are to keep
So, what's the “good” work that we are to keep doing? Let's look at that word: *Good.* Biblically speaking, “good” means beautiful, excellent, precious, useful, commendable, or admirable. What is work? It could be a paid position in an office, or in a home raising children, or volunteering in service to others… Whatever it is, every type of work has something to do with people– in some way, it's connected. Now, let’s think about your work. • Is your work beautiful to God? • Is your effort excellent in God's eyes? (Not perfect, y'all– but *excellent.*) • Do you aim to be useful, beneficial, helpful… a blessing to people? • Do you work for God's glory? Or for your own? Read 1 Corinthians 10:31 and Colossians 3:17, and then take a few moments to prayerfully consider the work that you do and ask God if there’s any area where you need to recalibrate under his truth and refocus your work. Whatever he tells you to do, do it! I love y’all! xo - P♥️ READ: “So whether you eat or drink or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God.” 1 Corinthians 10:31 “Whatever you do, no matter what it is, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus and in dependence on Him, giving thanks to God the Father through Him.” Colossians 3:17 #lifeonlifepodcast #discipleship #lifetogether #bettertogether #discipleship #readthebible #work #excellent

Your purpose is not a platform. Your purpose is to
Your purpose is not a platform. Your purpose is to glorify God and make him known…famous in all that you do. Whatever you do. Wherever you do it. He’s the one who’s front and center, in the spotlight. Jesus tells us that God’s light in us lights us up on the inside so that our light shines out in a way that people see our good works but give glory to God. His light fills us and shines *from* us— not on us. So, is the good work you’re doing shining light on you or shining light on God. Is it all about you and your platform and your following? Or is it all about him and pointing people to Jesus? We were not made for the spotlight. We were never made to build platforms. Your purpose is to *be* a platform— the stage on which Jesus Christ takes the center spot, shining brightly through us, with all eyes on *him.* “Let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven” (Matthew 15:16). I love y’all! xo - P♥️ #LifeOnLife #LifeOnLifePodcast #BetterTogether #spotlight #purpose #Light #letyourlightshine #centerstage #jesus

Never forget those who died.
Never forget the hero
Never forget those who died. Never forget the heroes who gave their lives to save lives. Never forget our country’s military who fought for 20 years, at home and abroad, to keep us safe and defend our freedom. Never forget those who murdered for the sake of hatred. Never forget the evil that caused this. 20 years ago I never thought we would be where we are today. For a few months after that horrible day we, the people of America, were more united than ever. We actually did care for one another, we looked at people as created in the image of God and treated them so. We had strong leadership that rallied us together, and around God and the hope that He brings. Churches, synagogues and religious gatherings were jampacked. People were looking for Hope, searching for answers, turning back to God as we vowed to NEVER FORGET. But then the days turned into weeks, into months, and slowly we went back to where we were. Because we forgot to *remember* never to forget. Every year on 911 we cry out again, “NEVER FORGET!” And yet it seems that we mostly have forgotten. In fact there’s a whole generation who can’t even identify with the horror and significance of that day—what it meant to our country, to us personally; they’ve not been told the stories or taught rightly about 911; their perspective on life, faith and freedom is skewed for lack of remembrance. 20 years later—look where we are. Look how far backward we’ve gone. Citizens of this country have failed to remember. Leadership in this country has failed to remember. Most of us have failed to remember—failed to allow 9.11.2001 to mark us & change us for more than just those few months; failed to allow that tragedy to make us better, to motivate us to make a difference... or things would certainly be different now. Better. Healthy. Strong. Resolute. Loving. Compassionate. United. But they’re not. And it is because the Main Thing we have forgotten to remember is God. Everything wrong in our country then...and now, everything wrong in your life, can be traced back to this one thing: What you believe about God and His preeminent place in your life and in your world. Lord help us. xo P💔 #911 #neverforget

I so love, and often quote to others, Jesus’ beautiful invitation in Matthew 11:28-30; and though I can recite it by heart, the Lord has placed it on my heart this week to meditate on, to study, to pray it out, to live it out. “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 Already I see so much in these 3 verses that could revolutionize a person’s life if truly lived out daily. And what I love so much is that the Lord is inviting us to an intimate relationship with Him; the kind of relationship that offers us rest… *soul* rest. Perhaps you need some *soul* rest too. Perhaps you need to just cuddle up with Jesus so He can hold you close. Come to Him, beloved, come to Him. I love y’all! xo - P♥️ #lifeonlife #discipleship #tellyourstory #bible #lifetogether #disciplemaker #church #worship #gathering #womensdiscipleship #jesus #faith #teaching #rest

Are you trying to hide from God?

*In your work, y
Are you trying to hide from God? *In your work, your career, your social activities? *In your family obligations? *In your recreational activities? *In your ministry? We run *from* God when we should run *to* him. We hide *from* Him when we should really hide *in* Him. God himself is our hiding place (Psalm 32:7), our refuge and our stronghold in times of trouble (Psalm 9:9), and our shelter (Isaiah 4:6) from the heat and the storms of life. He is the one we are to run to with everything. Everything! No matter how big the sin or the screw up, He says, “Come now, let us reason together; though your sins are like scarlet they shall be white as snow…” (Isaiah 1:18). He’s big enough, He’s God enough, He’s God Almighty… and He is the only One who can do anything about everything that concerns you! Beloved, you can’t run away from him, and you certainly can’t outrun him. So, whatever your situation, run to Him. I love y’all! xo - P♥️ #lifeonlife #discipleship #tellyourstory #bible #lifetogether #disciplemaker #church #worship #gathering #womensdiscipleship #jesus #faith #teaching #hide #hidingplace #hiding


Think about it.
Think about it.

Worldliness.

An attitude of worldliness means w
Worldliness. An attitude of worldliness means we’re seduced by what we see… and it controls us, manipulates us, and causes us to waste our time and our life on worthless things. God’s Word– his perfectly complete, timeless, error-free and living Word has something to say about the worthlessness of worldliness. Psalm 119:37 in the Amplified Bible is really drilling this in today: “Turn away my eyes from beholding vanity (idols and idolatry); and restore me to vigorous life and health in Your ways.” The greatest lure to *worthless worldliness* comes as a result of what we *turn our eyes to.* What we set our eyes on registers in our minds, appeals to our senses, and results in our hungry hearts screaming, “I want it! I’ve GOT TO HAVE IT! NOW!” Pause a moment to consider: What are you thoughtlessly turning your eyes toward? Take a personal inventory of what has your attention and decide: Worldly or Worthy? Then, replace it by fixing your eyes on Jesus— the One who satisfies every craving of your heart. Read his Word, believe his promises, ask him to fill up your hungry places. He satisfies like no other. I love y’all!⠀ xo - P♥️ #lifeonlife #discipleship #tellyourstory #bible #lifetogether #disciplemaker #church #worship #gathering #womensdiscipleship #jesus #faith #teaching


Remember who you are and remember Whose you are!
B
Remember who you are and remember Whose you are! Believe it. Believe Him. Live like you do, and tell others how great your God is! “This is what the Lord says—Israel’s King and Redeemer, the Lord of Heaven’s Armies: “I am the First and the Last; there is no other God. Who is like me? Let him step forward and prove to you his power. Let him do as I have done since ancient times when I established a people and explained its future. Do not tremble; do not be afraid. Did I not proclaim my purposes for you long ago? You are my witnesses—is there any other God? No! There is no other Rock—not one!” Isaiah 44:6-8 - NLT xo P♥️ #LifeOnLife #LifeOnLifePodcast #GodIsGreat #BelieveGod #BetterTogether #Discipleship #DisciplesMakingDisciples
