All Natural

When I shop for food, I look for All Natural. It usually has a higher $$ tag attached to it. Go figure – it’s all natural or so it boasts; how is it that doing less to it (keeping it natural) costs me more! 

But that is not how this post originally began. Here’s how:

My flesh wants to be annoyed, ABBA, always annoyed or worse. What does my spirit, Your Spirit in me, want when the computer is slower than my brain envisions as good; when the ICloud no longer automatically loads pictures and I’ve tried all I know and still  — they are not there?

My all natural default is to be annoyed; so  easily annoyed.  See what I mean? All natural is not always good and yes it does costs more! :)

Sin is all natural and the wages of sin is death – really high price to pay. See Romans 6:23.

But thanks be to GOD for His indescribable gift (see II Corinthians 9:15) we can have a super-natural nature (see II Corinthians 5: 17-21)! One that is not easily annoyed; one that is long-suffering; one that sees beauty and good everywhere she looks; one that lives in joy everyday. (See I Corinthians 13) One that has a mission here on earth, one she cannot do annoyed. :)

Thank You, ABBA, for a new nature. One that can choose to kick her natural nature to the curb. :)

Something

Something really quick. Something small but HUGE. BrokenMadeWholeSomething to pin to the wall of your mind. Something to invite into our hearts to stay. It came to me via Facebook this morning and it was too good to fail to share here.

Two Verses

The Pastor’s message began with verse 13. I started with verse 11 and as I read I thought of you.
