Do you live in fear or in expectation?

nathan-dumlao-287713 I recently was blessed by these words sent to me in an email story…

Expectation positions us to see miracles, big and small. It sharpens our vision and focuses our attention towards God. It liberates us from apprehension that blinds us to the majesty before us.

Instead of being shackled by fearing the worst, we’re free to recognize and receive what God is delighted to give.

What are your current expectations of God?

And how does He want to expand them? 😀

Graham Cooke, Shawn Bolz and Jonathan and Melissa Helser did a 3 day event on how to create a lifestyle of EXPECTATION in God!

Here’s a peak at what I enjoyed from Graham Cooke…

If you’d like to enjoy some life coaching with this kind of perspective, I’d be honoured to journey with you.

More Important Than Fear

Fearless One Minute, Freaking Out the Next

“Whether you deny Jesus in what you do or don’t do, he forgives and restores you as he did Peter.”

I shared this above with a friend and she replied…

“That was fantastic!!! Thank you for sharing! I love all your ‘Peter’ moments! What an honour to know that you (we) will rise and fall, but that our Father is there EVERY TIME to pick us up, dust us off and praise us, sending us back on course.

You are beloved! Your energy is contagious as it exudes the love of our Father! I LOVE that about you! You share that same twinkle in your eye that your Dad has. Captivating, inviting, loving and spunky! Don’t ever change! I love you, just the way you are!!!”

Wow, I certainly have found a friend who has Christ’s love in her heart. May we all be so blessed. May we be that friend.

May we also know that we can be freaking out one minute, turn to Jesus and He makes us fearless!
