Day 113

Isn't it strange that one day you can feel amazing and the next you feel like crap?  I believe it is the enemy of our souls doing everything to keep us from winning the battle.  If you then turn it around, it probably is the LORD OF ALL CREATION, doing everything to keep us from winning the battle.  HE seems to do the best work in me when I am at my lowest.  I just gave myself a new belief system.  Interesting......Reading Galatians 2:20-21:
^"20 My old self has been crucified with Christ.^[e] It is no longer I who live, but Christ lives in me. So I live in this earthly body by trusting in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me. ²¹ I do not treat the grace of God as meaningless. For if keeping the law could make us right with God, then there was no need for Christ to die."
So today is Memorial Day, remembering all those men and women who sacrificed their lives so that we can be free.  This is a whole sermon just in this sentence!  Do we really remember the sacrifice of Jesus so that we can be free?  Memorial Day should be for this also.  My husband & I went to Egypt and Israel a couple of years ago and I loved the muslim call to prayer times.  What a great thing to do....stop what you are doing, get on your knees and pray.  I did.  Do we remember our lives before GOD set us free?  I remember how miserable I was, life was but a shadow of what it was supposed to be.
I am ready to start talking again about full life.....what does my full life look like?  I can say I am scared to lay all the garbage down, who am I without it?  Here are my scriptures for today....so astounded once again!

“I praise God for what he has promised. I trust in God, so why should I be afraid? What can mere mortals do to me?” - Psalm 56:4
 Col 2:8-10 ⁸ Don’t let anyone capture you with empty philosophies and high-sounding nonsense that come from human thinking and from the spiritual powers^[a] of this world, rather than from Christ. ⁹ For in Christ lives all the fullness of God in a human body.^{[b] 10} So you also are complete through your union with Christ, who is the head over every ruler and authority. 
Eph 3:18-20
  ¹⁸ And may you have the power to understand, as all God’s people should, how wide, how long, how high, and how deep his love is. ¹⁹ May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God.
 ²⁰ Now all glory to God, who is able, through his mighty power at work within us, to accomplish infinitely more than we might ask or think.

Fullness of life is starting with how much GOD loves us. Look at verse 18....can we ever know what that really means?  Then to be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from GOD! HE has it all in HIS power.  We just need to trust HIM with all of ourselves.  I'm tired of trying to please everyone else before I try to please THE ALMIGHTY ONE. 

 so, day 113.......got some important things accomplished, had an amazing treatment from Trish, made some killer broth to start a fast, rest of life????? praying on hands and knees for HIS power!!!

If this is your day one, remember to pray to the ONE who will lift you to the heavenlies so you can breathe.  I pray for you and believe.
Loving you and having faith, Jules
