“So Sunday one of our Pastors at church preached a wonderful message..his heart was huge in his sermon..Amen..but one of the things he said that really stuck out to me was this..he says the gospel isn’t just a diving board we jump off of..but it is a pool that we swim in..Amen..and man oh man is he ever so right..Praise the Lord..in other words if we ain’t swimmin’ so to speak once we jump off that diving board then what are we doing?..well, guys we are sinking..Amen..and who wants to sink?..none of us want too..Praise the Lord..we wanna thrive in our lives..Amen..we wanna live in our lives..Amen..we don’t wanna just die..Praise the Lord..and I am speaking here of spiritual things guys..Romans 8:6..not literally dying..going to the grave..but spiritually dying..and going and taking ourselves to the grave..Amen!”

“So again when he said this I began writing and writing..Amen..because isn’t it true if we are not swimming with the Lord and daily so..well then we are pretty much just playing church as some like to call it..Amen..and who wants to play around in life?..I mean I truly don’t wanna play around..not with anything when it comes to the Lord..I fail at times..but I do get up and I do pay attention to the mistakes that has been made..but to stay there making mistakes and playing around..I really don’t have time..well none of us does..Amen..because I love peace in my life..how about you?..and I love contentment..Amen..again how about you?..and I love being and feeling safe..secure..all of them things..I love being covered..protected..and I love being ahead of the game with the Lord..I love walking in His power and His anointing more so than anything in this life..Amen..again how about you?..Amen!”

“So again when we just sink in our lives..other than thrive and go after daily the Lord..and daily make good choices and decisions..and we just play around..straddle the fence of life..and go back and forth..you know hot and cold..up and down..all over the place..then again we are doing ourselves a disservice..Revelation 3:15-16..Amen..we are only hurting ourselves from having in form of peace and instead we fill up our lives with drama and strife and all that comes along with it..again with our own choices and decisions we make..Amen..other than swimming and floating along with Jesus..we just jump in and let go of the raft..take off the life jacket..and instead of swim we just sink..and sink way low at times..to a dark place..and guys if you’ve ever been in one..a dark place..then I pray you remember the dark place..you remember where the Lord has brought you from..and then you rise and you swim and daily so..just swim..and keep on swimming with Jesus..for nothing in this whole wide world is worth not swimming along with the Lord..Amen..so today choose well in your life..and choose to remember where the Lord has brought you from..Psalm 40:1-17..and choose to be all the best things you can be for Him..not just playing around..but taking it serious and serious at it’s best..because it is our lives..and we ourselves help ourselves by following the leading and the guidance of the holy spirit in our lives..for life is too short to play around and just fall to the bottom especially when you are well..you are whole and you my friend are complete in Christ..so stay there in your pool of life swimming right along with our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ..Amen..pleasing Him and only Him as you go along..living your best life ever..Amen..for it is in His name, Jesus’ name, that I do ask and pray..Amen and Amen..Be blessed today my dear sweet friends and remember wherever you go and whatever you go and whatever you do, Be a light for our Father, Much love to you all, Mandi ❤
