ANW's Meaningful Monday's

How do you overcome opposition?

Opposition is always in action, as it tries to tear down good works. Fighting opposition, yet persevering and surviving, was Daniel, in the den (see Daniel 6); Shadrach, Meshach and Abednego, in the furnace(see 3:8-25), both due to betrayal; and Esther, standing up against "the most powerful official in the empire" (Esther 3:1 NLT). So, whatever the opposition, God always has your back, and will pave the way for you to keep doing what you are doing. #KeepPushingForward #InPrayer #InPerseverance & #InPassion

How can you lighten your list and life?

Just because you are busy does not mean you are productive. Reminding you and I of this is when Jesus came to visit Mary and Martha. Instead of busying herself, like her sister Martha who was "worried and upset about many things" (Luke 10:39), Mary sat "at the Lord's feet" (10:39), enjoying and being in the moment. So, as you prepare for the day and or week, might you remember that "whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do it all in the name of the Lord Jesus" (Colossians 3:17). For when you recognize and understand this, your priorities change, lists shorten, and you bear more fruit and "rest for your [soul]" (Matthew 11:29). #QualityOverQuantity

What list(s) are you on?

Lists, especially those with names, tell a story; and no greater place to find them is within Scripture. For each name that is listed in The Word is "useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work" (2 Timothy 3:16-17). So, whether listed names are familiar or not, like "the Shelanite or Perezite Clan", whom were"descendants of Judah" (Numbers 20:26), they, too, are still on the list and part of life's story, just like you are. May whatever list you are on allow His Word to help you to write your story, no matter how big or small. #AddToIt

What holds you back?

If it is because you worry, then, might you ask yourself this: "Can...you by worrying add a single hour to your life?” (Matthew 6:27). No; because He instructs you to "be strong" and "not fear; [for] your God will come" (Isaiah 35:4). So, might you give your worries to Him and go about living your life without hesitation. #DoNotWorryAboutYourLife625

How sensible you are?

Much can offend you, if you let it; and helping you how not to be is Proverbs. It is "sensible people" [who] "control their temper" and "earn respect by overlooking wrongs" (19:11 NLT) that keeps themselves from reacting to any offense. So, if you want to keep yourself from getting hurt or upset, might you have the good "sense" (19:8) that is necessary to do so. #SecureInSelfAndSoul

How smart and social are you?

It is just as important to have social graces as it is to have intelligence. Exhibiting both qualities, and equally so, is the Lord. Regardless of "no one [being able to] fathom" "his understanding" (Isaiah 40:28), He, also, personally, "gives strength to the weary and increases the power of the weak" (40:29), along with helping the hopeful "soar on wings like eagles" (40:31). So, if you struggle with one or the other or both, might you consider working to blend them together and strike a balance. #AWinningAndAttractiveCombination

ANW’s Takeaway Tuesday’s

ANW's Takeaway Tuesday's

What do you need clarified?

So much in life gets both misinterpreted and misunderstood; and one of those misinterpretations and misunderstandings is who Jesus, “the author of life"(Acts 3:15), is.  While here on earth, and before he was "killed" (3:15), many did not take the time to get to know Him and still do not even after “God raised him from the dead” (3:15). Yet, despite how misread and misunderstood He was, He still wants you to get to know you. So, if you would like to experience a great life, might you take the time to find out who He is and what He is all about. #JustAsk

How well do you love your neighbors?

It can be a very daunting task, but you and I are asked to be good samaritans to our neighbors and love them as ourselves (see Luke 10:27). Reflecting such behavior was "a priest" [who] happened to notice a man who was "stripped", "beat" and left for "half dead", after being robbed, on "the same road" that he was traveling. Taking "pity on" the man, the priest "bandaged his wounds", "put the man on his own donkey", and "brought him to an inn and took care of him" (Luke 10:31-34). So, might you, too, "go and do likewise" (10:37). #GoodHearted & #Kind

What do you do to heal?

Rest is necessary to recover and heal, especially when "there is no health in [your] body" (Psalm 32:3). Wanting to help you rest your bones and rebuild your strength (see 32:3-4) is The Lord. So, if you "are weary and burdened", might you consider "[taking His] yoke upon you and learn from [Him]...and you will find rest for your [soul]” (Matthew 11:28-29). #DontIgnoreTheSignsAndSymptoms & #TakeCareofYourTemple
