Clouds of Love Above

It's Majestic Marvel Monday! Since Mondays can often be one of the tougher days of the week and for many, it means back to the daily grind, what better way to put a smile on your face than to marvel at His majestic wonders! I absolutely love photography! It is both a creative outlet and passion that brings me joy. So, each Monday, I will post at least one photo of God’s majestic marvels I’ve captured. See and be in awe of His creations and beauty!

For your unfailing love is as high as the heavens. Your faithfulness reaches to the clouds. -Psalms‬ ‭57‬:‭10‬ ‭NLT‬‬

“Hear this, O Job; stop and consider the wondrous works of God. -Job 37:14

“God writes the gospel not in the Bible alone, but on trees and flowers and clouds and stars.”

Fuel Your Walk Friday

Fuel your walk with some Jesus and Joe.

I love Jesus and I love me an iced cuppa fresh cold brew halved with vanilla almond milk. What better way to combine the two and perk up the beginning of your weekend, than to “Fuel Your Walk” with some Jesus and Joe. Once a week, I will be posting a little snippet, thought, quote or question to ponder in relation to your walk with Christ. So grab your favorite mug, pour yourself a delicious cuppa Joe and get comfy as you let this question percolate in your mind:

In his book Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God, Francis Chan said, “Following Christ isn’t something that can be done halfheartedly or on the side. It is not a label we can display when it is useful. It must be central to everything we do and are.”

Are you seeking and following Christ wholeheartedly? If not, how will you make Him your central priority?

Then he said to them all, “If any want to become my followers, let them deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me. -Luke‬ ‭9‬:‭23‬ ‭NRSV‬‬

Whoever serves me must follow me, and where I am, there will my servant be also. Whoever serves me, the Father will honor. -John‬ ‭12‬:‭26‬ ‭NRSV‬‬

Francis Chan, in his book Crazy Love: Overwhelmed by a Relentless God, said, “You have to stop loving and pursuing Christ in order to sin. When you are pursuing love, running toward Christ, you do not have opportunity to wonder, *Am I doing this right?* or *Did I serve enough this week?* When you are running toward Christ, you are freed up to serve, love, and give thanks without guilt, worry or fear. As long as you are running, you’re safe.”

Are you running towards Christ?

Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us, fixing our eyes on Jesus, the pioneer and perfecter of faith. For the joy set before him he endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. -Hebrews‬ ‭12‬:‭1‬-‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬
