Song of the Day

"Limitless"

Too young, too old

Too shy, too bold

Too average

To make a difference

The world's too big

And you're too small

If you try to fly

You're gonna fall

They're shouting

But we won't listen

We are limitless, limitless

Limitless, limitless

The power of love

Alive in us

Is limitless, limitless

Unstoppable and nothing less

No nothing can hold us down

We're limitless

No more impossible

So much far too difficult

We know that our God is greater

Oh wake up you dreamers

Become make-believers

This is who we are

We are limitless, limitless

Limitless, limitless

The power of love

Alive in us

Is limitless, limitless

Unstoppable and nothing less

No nothing can hold us down

We are limitless

Take away the limitations

When we fix our eyes on You

Flood our hearts with expectations

Lord, there's nothing You can't do

Doubt sees a mountain, no way around it

Faith sees a victory, no doubt about it

Fear sees a ceiling, hope sees the stars

Love be the light inside of our hearts

[x2]

We are limitless, limitless

Limitless, limitless

The power of love

Alive in us

Is limitless, limitless

Unstoppable and nothing less

No nothing can hold us down

Cause we are limitless

Doubt sees a mountain, no way around it

Faith sees a victory, no doubt about it

Fear sees a ceiling, hope sees the stars

Love be the light inside of our hearts

(We are limitless)

Doubt sees a mountain, no way around it

Faith sees a victory, no doubt about it

Fear sees a ceiling, hope sees the stars

We're limitless

Cause You're limitless

My Thoughts Today

I am what I think I am. If I believe that there is no hope, that life has no meaning and that things just will not work, because why would anything good happen to me.

You know what I am doing? I am giving into the negativity and self pity, I am getting absorbed into my own feelings and insecurities. If I focus on all of that negativity soon, I become lost and unable to see what is right there in front of me. I have created the storm that I am lost in. It is bad enough going through storms in life, the highs and lows of each day, but when I create a storm I am giving into the feelings that there is no hope, I am giving into the doubts, the fears that I am suppose to be free of.

The Bible talks about this very thing, it teaches me how to walk free from it, but why do I not use it? Is it because it is to easy? No, it is just the opposite, it is because giving into the feelings that are part of my existence is easier then looking for the Son. It is so much easier to lay down and die then stand up and fight. When we walk as a Christian we are to stand and fight the good fight, we are to run a good race, not giving in, not comparing ourselves to others. God has me right where He wants me, if I look at others, I can say there are faster runners out there or they are better then me, they look better, etc. I am called to allow God, surrender those to Him and with Him anything is possible. When I give into those feelings, I am putting God in a box and saying my problems are to big for Him, but guess what there is nothing to big for God.


Romans 5:3 "More than that, we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance,"
Matthew 11:28-30 "Come to me, all who labor and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn from me, for I am gentle and lowly in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light."
Philippians 4:6 "Do not be anxious about anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God."

His way and not mine, His thoughts and not mine, I will struggle, but when I do I need to focus on Him, with Him all things are possible. 

My Thoughts for the Day

I can look at all the stresses at work and lose sight of what God is teaching me through it all. My strength must come from Him and not myself. It is so easy to focus on the negative, but so much harder to focus on the positive (benefits).

I think it is so in life as it is at work, so much easier to take a path of least resistance, but harder to actually do what is necessary to move forward along the path that God has lade out for me. The path that God has, is not always easy, but it is worth the climb. My human instinct wants easy, but in order for me to be the man of God I need to be, I am trained, taught, instructed and more.

When you look at the training that a soldier goes through, we don't ask why, because we know that they will face some challenges, but going through the testing first they learn and grow.

We Christians are the same, we are in a training camp of God, are we willing to take the test that He has for us or are they to difficult? We are in training and each struggle, each hardship we can either try to do it on our own or we can see that with God all things are possible, it isn't about my way, but your way Lord.
