Herran Ybarra: Living Risen

Everyone must inspect what they own- the car, home, physical body, and even the soul. Things can get overwhelming, but a simple inspection can be an easy remedy, but at other times- it will take work and help.

The biggest asset and detriment is the mind. Continual negative thoughts will lead to disappointment, discouragement, and frustration. Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but the inverse is also true. Hope in the heart makes you well. You are never alone and never without help.

Sometimes our efforts seem to have no return. Things do go our way or people let us down. Now what? Keep the faith and readjust. Keep on keeping on.

We have constant influences all around us and the truth is that we are influencers whether we choose to be or not. Our thoughts and words influence our actions, so choose wisely.

The voice of God calls you and me to better, more, greatness, etc..., but cloaks and things that seem to cripple us hold us back.

Don't believe the lie!

We all have thoughts that can take us off course, but we must combat thoughts with Scripture.

Our alignment to the will of God must include guardrails to stay on track and keep us safe when we begin to drift of course.

We all have thoughts that can take us off course and we all need a realignment. Even when we are aligned and on a course toward our purpose; we still need guard rails to keep us on track.

Life is full of changes. Some changes are good, but others not so much. The Gospel of Jesus Christ is the standard for life; therefore, we need to be renewed in our souls.

Remember, whatever is modeled will be repeated. We get to choose.

The ingredients of forgiveness and renewal are crucial to living a fully "Risen Life" in Jesus Christ. If we understand that we have been forgiven by God, we can then forgive others. When we grasp that we are loved by God, we can forgive, but we cannot truly forgive when we do not love.

Remember, you are called to "Walk New & Live Risen" in Jesus Christ.
