Staying focused on growing up into Christ is as simple as ABC. The theme of Back to the Basics continues and in this episode, the letters G-K serve as your guide to living life as a Burning One. 

Scriptures:

2 Corinthians 10: 5-6 TPT

Psalm 119:32 NIV

Remember every day we get to choose how we will respond to life with God. For the next few episodes, I am reminding myself and encouraging you to keep it simple by following the ABCs to life as a Burning One. This episode centers around D E and F. 

Scripture:  Psalm 37: 3-5 TPT

Every day we get to choose how we respond to our life with God. Living out our 'yes' with Him and for Him is as simple as ABC. Notice that I said simple, not easy. The Lord has allowed me to revisit the basics of how to live like a burning one for His kingdom and His glory and He did so using the ABCs.  Thanks for listening. 

Scriptures: Luke 1: 26-55 and  Luke 2: 8-19

▪Highly concentrated juice or other product has had water or some other diluting agent extracted from it and all that remains is the pure substance.

▪How much more flavorful would we be to the people we live with? The people we work with?

Giving God thanks is a choice we get to make every single day. Are you able to thank God when things are going great? How about when things aren't so great? I want to encourage you purposefully offer words of thanks. 

In all circumstances give thanks for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus. 1 Thessalonians 5:18

True story, so this cockroach walks into a bar one day... 😊 Okay, it was a juice bar, but it is a true story of how sometimes God will use the most common creatures in life to gently remind us of where He wants to see us grow.  

Passivity is a choice because at the end of the day not choosing is in fact making a choice. 

Let's choose life with Christ over everything else.

Scriptures

• Hebrews 3:13-14
• Hebrews 10:24

How often have you spoken these two little words, what if... and at the end of that thought, felt worse than you did 10 minutes prior? How we shape the remainder of the question is significant to how we end up responding to life's challenges.
