Flap Your Wings



September 6
Chasing the blue heron in the evenings is a favorite pastime. The other night I shot some magnificent photos and they make me smile!  Such an amazing skinny bird!  They seem to be loving living life here on the lake!

Do we exude joyful living?  Are we a billboard of appreciation for the gift of life God has given us?

The following verses establish some simple life application steps leading to joyful living.

Father, we come before you awed by who you are and how you love us.  Your compassion, forgiveness, mercy and ever present access to accomplish each of those attributes, as well as your ability to instruct us in all things is reason alone to shout hallelujah.  Add eternal salvation to the list and we should attempt cartwheels!  We could to You today as teachable children, ready to learn from You and be set apart for Your purpose.  In Jesus' Name, Amen

"Set yourselves apart for a holy life. Live a holy life, because I am God, your God. Do what I tell you;
live the way I tell you. I am the God who makes you holy."  Leviticus 20: 7-8

"Hallelujah!  Thank God!  Pray to him by name!  Tell everyone you meet what he has done! Sing him songs, belt out hymns, translate his wonders into music!  Honor his holy name with Hallelujahs, you who seek God. Live a happy life!  Keep your eyes open for God, watch for his works; be alert for signs of his presence."  Psalm 105:1-6
