Nor shall the flame scorch you.

Cool Of The Day Highlights

Matt - John 21

Saije - Psalm 104

Our heart behind Cool Of The Day is to encourage people to spend time with Jesus. We believe that is the most life changing practice that we can do. It's so simple, so easy and so regularly forgotten. We often focus on the big A-HA! moments in life or the super insane crazy experiences with God. Those are cool, God wants you to have them, but consistent fellowship with God is the most important factor in our life. This week we are putting out a new product that is aimed at encouraging and focus our quiet times with the Lord. Join us as we explain it in more depth!

Saije - Psalm 103:12 As far as the east is from the west, so far has He removed our transgressions from us.

This week we cover how the Lord spoke to us again with the word abide. It seems to be the theme of our lives right now. In this episode we cover why it's so important to us and what God has been sharing with us. Thanks so much friends for listening and hanging out with us!

John 15:5

“I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing."

Jesus said that, so pretty big deal.

Song of the week:

Cool Of The Day Highlights!

Saije - Just because it's taking time, doesn't mean it's not happening - God is working even when you don't see it. He has things behind the scenes that we don't learn about until it's our time to know

Matt - 2 Chronicles - Honor the Lord. You are in charge of your life and the best way to have a good life is to set your life before the Lord and let Him be in charge. The kings that do well honor God and the kings that fail do not and pursue their lusts and pride.  This verse isn't in the podcast but it makes the point better than me. Matthew 16:25 "For whoever desires to save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for My sake will find it."

While we were thinking about topics for this week the marriage journal came up and we wanted to share with you guys what we love about it and why it's so awesome! We also cover some new topics such as: homesteading in the city, recycling schedules, container placement and twilight!

Saije - James 4:3 And even when you ask, you don’t get it because your motives are all wrong—you want only what will give you pleasure.

Cool Of The Day Highlight

Matt - God is crazy faithful and showed Israel His love in bringing them through the wilderness to the promised land. It's in the bible somewhere. (Mid Exodus and Numbers, solid recap in Deuteronomy)

Saije - Psalm 67:1-2 God be merciful to us and bless us,

That Your way may be known on earth,

Locations are very important things. Where you are and what you do in those places really matters. Simple things like a quiet time typically happen in places where we can really focus. That may be your home or a coffee shop, but generally at the park while your kids are playing isn't a good time. I have been thinking about this simple topic for the past week and in this episode we cover some locations that have really stood out to me. Thanks for tuning in!
