Don't Pick it Up!



The yoke we bear is so heavy at times. Many times we feel like it will just squash us flat!  I have been  going through this Bible study, Breaking Free by Beth Moore.  As I was reading through the material this week, trying to catch up to where everyone else is, it is revealed to me over and over again!

You can feel completely free from past sins and temptations that surround you today!

Galatians 5:1 says:
"Stand fast therefore in the liberty wherewith Christ hath made us free, and be not entangled again with the yoke of bondage."

I don't know about you, but I can't tell you how many times I have laid a past sin or burden down at the foot of the cross and not a few days later picked it back up again!  Sometimes I think that I can handle it on my own...or maybe just feel so guilty over a sin (one that has been confessed and forgiven) that I don't feel worthy of forgiveness and mercy.  We must remind ourselves that Christ died for those sins and God has won the victory over any hardship that we face.

Here is a video that I thought says it even better:

Unshakeable Faith

What state is your faith in?  October 13, 2017, we had a one night conference to address our faith and to teach us how to make our faith unshakeable ! The following are the notes that I took throughout the conference, where we enjoyed listening to 3 godly women: Valerie Howe, Kristi Neace and Brenda Poinsett.  I hope you are blessed in the passing of this wisdom. The Bible tells us in Luke 10:27 that "Thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy strength, and with all thy mind; and thy neighbour as thyself." What does that even look like? Our hearts are deceitful things! God warns us about this in His word.(Jeremiah 17:9)  We are told in many places to control our emotions. We are to "be angry and sin not," "be slow to anger", "put on the whole armor", "walk in the spirit" and so many more! Our actions and words show the inner condition of our hearts.
