Sonshine in my Heart!

Daily writing prompt
What is your favorite type of weather?

My favorite weather is when I let the Son of God shine in my heart! Here’s how I do that:

Christ-followers are called to no longer live according to their human desires but to live according to the desires of the Spirit. Christ’s sin offering and the life-giving presence of God’s Spirit who gives life, have the power to set us free from the condemnation of the law and from spiritual death. They actively empower us so that we can continually focus on, listen to, obey, and adore the risen Jesus. (See Romans 8:1-4 in the Bible.)

I’m aware that I am. I can focus my attention as I choose. There’s no biological explanation for my consciousness. I’m a supernatural being living in my physical body. “I am fearfully and wonderfully made.” Because of Christ’s death on the Cross, I can now choose moment by moment to die to my sinful desires and instead live according to God’s Spirit by making Him always welcome to daily live in, work in, empower, direct, and shine in and through me.

About Steve Simms

I like to look and think outside the box. In college I encountered Jesus Christ and I have been passionate about trying to get to know Him better ever since. My wife and I long to see the power and passion of the first Christ-followers come to life in our time. I have written a book about our experiences in non-traditional church, called, "Beyond Church: An Invitation To Experience The Lost Word Of The Bible--Ekklesia." If you need encouragement, search for: Elephants Encouraging The Room and/or check out my Amazon author page. Thank you!
