As a Christian, I LONG to give you tidy answers to

As a Christian, I LONG to give you tidy answers to the pandemic. (SHARE and SAVE)

But, I personally can be tempted to OVERSIMPLIFY complex problems using 300 words on instagram.

Sometimes, we can be tempted to explain away pain with Christianese verbiage.  I long to give you an answer, but the Bible has 3,116,480 (approx) characters and 783,137 words (approx) that hold complex rich theological principles.   Sometimes, not having an answer to the pandemic, earthquakes, natural disasters or someone else’s pain can point us towards the only one with the answers. I have to point you to the one who IS the answer-JESUS.   Let’s not get caught up in tidy answers, and trite solutions.
"Where were you when I laid the earth's foundation? Tell me, if you understand. (Job 38:4) #chasingsacred

I was so weary today. I felt done. My talents felt less-than and my mothering fell on deaf ears. (Save this for encouragement)

There is a principle of scripture where God uses what we already have and multiplies it. The boy and the feeding of the 5,000 (John 6), the widow with the oil (2 Kings 4), the other widow with the oil (1 Kings 17).

These people already had these resources. It wasn’t anything to do with their efforts, more time, or the right words or parenting tactics.

I’m not sure why I am always looking to BE more, DO more, and to figure it all out. Today, I rested in the fact that God has already gifted and equipped me. God can multiply my efforts and energy for what he wants to accomplish. I don’t need to figure it all out.

“Your servant has nothing there at all,” she said, “except a small jar of olive oil.”(2nd Kings 4:2)

It is so much easier for me to prescribe honor to

It is so much easier for me to prescribe honor to those that I do NOT know. [SHARE and SAVE as a reminder]

The more we know someone, the more we
SEE their imperfections. It’s human. We love what we do not know-because it is without fault.

Jesus knew this truth about the human condition. Jesus himself knew that, “a prophet had no honor in his own country,” (John 4:44) despite the fact that he was perfect, people did not support what was familiar to them, “..For not even His brothers were believing in Him.” (John 7:5)

This shouldn’t surprise us, his family grew up with him, it was hard for them to understand that he was the King of Kings. Some marveled at the fact that an un-educated man from their home-town was claiming to be the Messiah.

We see the unwelcome messages of the Old Testament prophets, Isaiah, Ezekiel,and more and how the familiarity of these people constituted an audience that ignored them.

Today, I want to challenge you to love what you do know, and believe in those closest to you. We are quick to adore speakers, and teachers, or far-away preachers. Yet, silly-enough, the people who we walk day in and day out with, we don’t ascribe them honor. We often don’t listen to the criticism of those closest to us. Jesus, who is perfect, and known by his Word, we often don’t give him the worship he deserves. Instead, we spend time fawning over the appearance of humans who aren’t close to us.. Today, let’s listen to those nearest and dearest to us, let’s prescribe honor to those that we know the full-scope of their hearts. #chasingsacred

Happy #fridayintroductions!!!! It’s been a hot

Happy #fridayintroductions!!!!

It’s been a hot minute since I’ve introduced myself. My name is Mikella and I recently broke free from THAT quarantine-life. My family got corona and the State is still calling me a month later. (SAY WHAT????)

I recently had this beautiful lady👇 Her name is Copley pronounced Cop-lee.

I have three sweet boys: Paxton (5), Barkley (3), and Hudson. (2)

I want to know if you have had Corona if you lost your sense of smell and taste??? My friend just texted me that she’s hoping it comes back before Thanksgiving! Let me know if you will be unable to smell and taste the Turkey this year?????✌️

If you haven’t had Corona then tell me your kids names!!!

God changes all of our names to children of God wh

God changes all of our names to children of God when you believe. [SAVE & SHARE] As a child of God you are:
Part of Gods family
Heirs with Christ
Made righteous
Beloved by God
Endowed with the Spirit
Holy
Set-apart
Obedient
Bear his image
Confident
Secure
We have authority
Assurance
& more
And you are NO LONGER: fearful, orphaned, hopeless, unworthy, slave to sin, destitute, lacking security, alone, or, any of the lies you have been believing.

Are you believing in Faith like Abraham that you are who he says you are? #chasingsacred
