Peoples!
How you feeling today? I pray you're experiencing victory in Him and comfort in the fact that we, who belong to Jesus, with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord's glory are being transformed into his likeness with ever-increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is Spirit. (2 Cor 3:18)

By God's grace i'm well. Things have been pretty good - busy as usual, but i'm beginning to center down on the most important things: not what i can do but who and whose i am. That's what makes life worthwhile and satisfying; i believe that's also what releases the Father to accomplish His will through us. It's amazing because as we focus on who and whose we are, we also become less as Jesus becomes greater - a great paradox huh?
What a mystery, but all i know is that as i begin to focus my prayer life and communion with God on coming to the cross where self is crucified and "I" cease to be central...God is doing a great work in me. My desire is that His work in me is so complete that overflow into the lives of others as a channel of blessing will happen more and more naturally.
Amazing though because we are called to live at a place of brokeness - this is something i don't ever want to relinquish. I've seen awesome examples of broken yet whole people in my life. I think this must be a delicate balance cuz God don't despise contriteness and brokeness and when i'm weak He is strong....
As a final thing to meditate on which has rocked me in these last days:
"When Jesus was 12 he was mightily used of God in the temple where his earthly parents found him astounding to the teachers of his day with his wisdom - nowadays we would've released him into fultime ministry, he would've held workshops, seminars, talked at universities, etc. However, he had to undergo the maturation process of Luke 2:52 and grow into sonship - from a breastfed babe to a meat munching man. When he was 30 years old he was then baptized by John as the transition into being released into the fullness of His ministry. The Father said 2 incredible things of Jesus at this baptism:
1) this is my Son - Jesus was now clearly a son which speaks of having received the full inheritance of the Father and this stage of maturation applies to all, gender is totally irrelevant
2) with whom i am well pleased - Jesus hadn't even done any public ministry before this point and yet the Father was happy with him! Why? Because the Father was concerned with who and whose he was not what he could or couldn't, did or didn't do!"
That's big innit??? So, may you find true security in who and whose you are in the Father. You have been given the spirit of sonship by which you cry "Abba Father". Let that permeat your spirit, soul and body; I challenge you to discover what that really means. As we let go of external (and internal) pressures and we'll become - just as the I am is.......
Aight famz, that's all for now..............much luv and blesses!
You ever seen a white pumpkin???
