31 Days of Chasing THE Light Day 5 {Day 277}




Dreaming Light

We do this by keeping our eyes on Jesus, the champion who initiates and perfects our faith. ~Hebrews 12:2

Dream….it means “a strongly desired goal or purpose.” Do you have a dream? One that makes your heart beat widely? Or one that maybe feels out of reach…maybe so far away that you are afraid to leap? Or do you have a dream that you have tucked away because…life.

Sometimes we have to wait.
Sometimes we have to change.
Sometimes we need to shift.
Sometimes our insecurities get in the way.
And sometimes God changes the dream.


Do you have a dream that needs to be pulled back into the Light? Do you need to slow down and not get ahead of Him and His plan? 

Be obedient.

Press on but lean in.

And keep coming to Jesus. Don’t look side to side. Don’t look too far ahead. Let’s keep our eyes on Jesus. 

Focus: What’s the dream on your heart?

Zoom In (journal): Write out your dream and invite The Light into this dream. He is the Author of our dreams. Ask yourself if you have pushed it back because you are afraid…if He has called you to it….He will equip you to get through it. Be obedient. We have the holy spirit of God living in us. He will equip you. 

Capture: Did you make the steps to bring that dream back into His Light? Run your race and let God get bigger in your field of vision. 

“For yet in a very little while, He who is coming will come, and will not delay.
But My righteous one [the one justified by faith] shall live by faith [respecting man’s relationship to God and trusting Him]; And if he draws back [shrinking in fear], My soul has no delight in him.  But our way is not that of those who shrink back to destruction, but [we are] of those who believe [relying on God through faith in Jesus Christ, the Messiah] and by this confident faith preserve the soul.
~Hebrews 10:37-39

Worry? Proverbs 31 OBS Blog Hop

  This week's blog topic from Proverbs 31 OBS is on “Worry”… AND I know a thing or two about worry.  I’m betting a lot of you reading this do as well.  Dictionary.com defines worry as: “ to torment oneself with or suffer from disturbing thoughts; fret. ” Torment oneself.  Suffer.  Fret.  That’s what I can do to myself sometimes.   I’ve heard that if you worry you don’t really trust that God can handle it.  You don’t trust God with it.  That’s hard to swallow for me.  Because I worry about my kids, my family, me, friends, etc.  But I’m in the Bible every single day.  I am a Jesus girl.  So for me to worry and then see that my worry means I don’t trust that God can handle it is hard.  UGH.   I am getting better about it though.  My time with God every morning is helping.  When I start to worry about something…I begin to pray.  I stop the tormenting in its tracks and give it to Jesus.  Now, I may have to give it to Jesus more than once. 

A Raging Battle.... Proverbs 31 OBS Blog Hop

On Sunday of this week, we started a new online Bible study with Proverbs 31!  I am so excited because I love anything Proverbs 31!  Our study this time around is by one of my favorite authors, Lysa TerKeurst….and her book, Made to Crave !  I have read this book already and it is amazing.  If you want to jump in on the study…please do!  Go here to sign up:  http://proverbs31.org/online-bible-studies/ This week for my blog topic I picked “A Raging Battle”   because food is not something I crave more than God…I crave other things.  God has shown me some things that I crave more than Him and it’s not pretty.  “My soul yearns, even faints, for the courts of the Lord ; my heart and my flesh cry out for the living God.”  Psalm 84:2 For three years now I have been doing a 365 photo a day blog and last year I started writing every Thursday about my faith and whatever was on my heart.  I felt like this was something I was supposed to do.  When I

Running on Empty --- Proverbs 31 OBS Blog Hop Day

It’s the middle of summer and I feel like I am running on empty.  Ever feel that way?  The pace of summer is supposed to relax me but these past couple of days…I feel tired and done.  Right now- I don’t believe my life is telling the story of God’s grace.  Oh, I know His grace is all around me…He gives me grace D A I L Y.  But…am I giving grace to others?  No…not really because I am empty…drained…exhausted.  In fact, I told my kids that it would be an early bedtime last night because Mommy was done...that Mommy was on empty…that I had nothing more to give and we needed to just go to bed. <Insert Mommy guilt> I need to be filled up.  I want to be filled but I keep going through the motions of my day to day activities.  Depending on my own strength is draining me and causing me to say, “I have nothing more to give!”  When really…I do.  The other day, my daughter had a trail ride and as I stood in a big open field and looked out at God’s creati
