Walking the Passage: Remind one another...

Remind one another...

"Shine like the beautiful lamp you are!"

"Do you remember that not even two years ago you so desired a church home? And now .. now see all that the Lord has done!"

Two friends speaking life into my being... taking the time to remind me of who I am and where I have been and the faithfulness, character and nature of my God...

Another friend is always speaking truth.... walking around as if he was an actual concordance... full of life.. full of truth... full of the way God sees and knows .. confronting lies with the outrageous and extravagant love of Father...

They are beautiful to me... they are life to me.... they remind me of that which is important....

Remind one another ... Hebrews 3:13 speaks it.. and I would yell it out at the top of my lungs...

"But encourage one another daily, as long as it is called Today, so that none of you may be hardened by sin's deceitfulness."

Encourage one another daily... do it... say those words that might be awkward and corny but say them any way.... speak life into one another... speak truth into one another... bless one another...

Ah I feel myself turning one at even the thoughts of this... I love this.... I love how words come together and form encouragement and I love seeing people as He sees them and holding up a mirror and saying, "this is you... this is you... this is really who you are..."

You are altogether beautiful..... and your worth is far above rubies..... it's truth!!!! There is nothing better

One of my Favorite Narnian Quotes...

“One word, Ma’am,” he said, coming back from the fire; limping because of the pain. “One word. All you’ve been saying is quite right, I shouldn’t wonder. I’m a chap who always liked to know the worst and then put the best face I can on it. So I won’t deny any of what you said, even so. Suppose we have only dreamed, or made up, all those things – trees and grass and sun and moon and stars and Aslan himself. Suppose we have. Then all I can say is that, in that case, the made-up things seem a good deal more important than the real ones. Suppose this black pit of a kingdom of yours is the only world. Well, it strikes me as a pretty poor one. And that’s a funny thing, when you come to think of it. We’re just babies making up a game, if you’re right. But four babies playing a game can make a play-world that makes you real world hollow. That’s why I’m going to stand by the play-world. I’m on Aslan’s side even if there isn’t any Narnia. So, thanking you kindly for our supper, if these two gentlemen and the young lady are ready, we’re leaving your court at once and setting out in the dark to spend our lives looking for the Overland.

A Brilliant Quote from Marianne Williamson

Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate,

but that we are powerful beyond measure.

It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us.

We ask ourselves, "Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous?"

Actually, who are you not to be?

You are a child of God.

Your playing small does not serve the world.

There is nothing enlightening about shrinking

so that others won't feel unsure around you.

We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us.

It is not just in some of us; it is in every one.

As we let our light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.
