Open Up
I believe life’s fulfillment is discovered when we open our hearts to Christ!
An open heart is a powerful thing as it forges relationships, mends wounds and empowers us to achieve. This truth inspires us but can also intimidate us as having an open heart requires courage and strength while experiencing new things.
Our ubiquitous temptation is to play it safe and protect, at all costs, what we deem special or important. This stems from our disappointment where expectations and fulfillment have a big gap, yet we have the power to choose our response. How we choose to respond will determine our outlook of either expectation or negativity.
“See, I have set before you today life and good, death and evil”.
Deuteronomy 30:15
Our open heart empowers us to receive His Life and Good!
What areas of your life do you want His Life and Good to touch?
The bridge we cross to see this reality is taking the step of bravery by opening our heart. It’s leaving the confines of our experiences as we reach for new things in Christ. Overcoming ourselves is the doorway to destiny, so let’s reach forward receiving His Life and Good.
The detour we take to death and evil is in a closed heart. When our heart is closed to God and people we become self-centered, lose compassion, and become vulnerable to deception and vanity.
This epic battle rages within all of us yet we have the power of choice. We can choose what we will receive and it begins with our heart. It’s a powerful thing to have destiny and legacy within us, yet our choices determine what happens.
Let’s collectively take this step together”by opening up”our heart to God and to others, believing that His Life and Good are ours to receive.
The best is yet to come with an open heart! Have a great week and see you soon!
