SelahV Today by hariette petersen

I AM...

i am lowly and meek because i want to be;

i am mild and at peace because i'm conditioned to be;

i am brave and courageous because God tells me to be.

i am saved and sure because He died for me.

i am satisfied now, because life happens to be

                           totally fixed on eternity.

i am set apart as Christ sanctifies me;

i am chosen in HIM to live righteously.

i am grateful He keeps me consistently;

i am blessed to rest in Him peacefully.

i am happy to know He abides in me.

i am less than another who yearns to be

                    totally free of hypocrisy.

i am full of the faith God gave to me

        to hope in tomorrow's destiny.

i am granted peace that assuredly

        each morning brings more of His mercies for me.

i am all i am because God created in me

        a love for the cross that has set me free

        to worship the King, His Majesty.

"I AM", so you don't have to be...

whoever the world says you need to be." selahV

Who do you say i am?  Who are you?

Life is a Bubble

Life is a bubble in time.

Its first breath draws in the air created by God.

It forms a sphere of beauty which reflects all the world around it.

A rainbow of color, an orb of grey.

So fragile is this bubble.

Swiftly it moves upon the slightest breeze.

All too quickly it meets its destination and explodes...

expelling its final breath,

then bursts forth into another dimension, leaving behind this world,

and all who loved its presence.

Life is a bubble...enjoy it while it lingers.  Treat it tenderly, kindly, generously...

with love.

Cherish the brilliance, the joy; ignore the collection of dust it gathers in its trek.

All too soon it comes to an end;

then we wonder why it could not stay forever in our midst.

"You have made my days a mere handbreadth; the span of my years is as nothing before you. Each man's life is but a breath. Selah" Psalm 39:5
