My Perspective is Always Changing

Daily writing prompt

How have your political views changed over time?

Writing what Jesus shows me helps me see things from God’s perspective instead of from my own. It’s a great way to begin to experience the gifts of the Spirit, especially the gift of prophecy. Focus your attention intensely on the risen Jesus. Notice what He puts on your heart. Then check it out to make sure it aligns with the Bible, and if so, write it down. Persisting in this simple activity will set your heart alight with Spirit-given vision and insight.

Christ’s fire continually ignites me with love and adoration for Him. He gives me the intensity of boiling water. I eagerly desire to hear Him speak within me. I read the Bible every day because I long to hear Jesus talk to me through Scripture. I listen to His still small voice throughout each day because I treasure being led by His Spirit. I am thrilled to write what I sense Him saying to me because I want everybody to lift up their heart to the intimacy of Christ’s Presence. I’m a Jesus-writer.

Some people say my writing is repetitious. It is. No matter what I write about my focus is on Jesus. He has captured my heart, my soul, my all and turned me into a Jesus-writer.

I write about joy because Jesus is my joy. (Search for: The Joy of Early Christianity.) I write about hope because “Christ in you” is my hope of glory. (Search for: Elephants Inspiring the Room.) I write about race because Jesus loves everybody and wants me to love them too. (Google: Off the RACE Track–From Color-Blind to Color-Kind.)

I write about “ekklesia” because it is the original Christian assembly, and it allows Jesus to be the literal Head of His gathered body. (Search: Beyond Church Ekklesia.) Everything I write, I write because I feel prompted to do so by the risen Jesus, the Lord of All! (Google: Free Gas for Your Think Tank blog.)

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!
