Over the past few weeks, the LORD has been speaking to me in a variety of ways to STOP STRIVING. I even had a vivid dream on April 15 that woke me up about this. I sense strongly this message is intended for many other people too, perhaps you. During our last Master’s Mind Marketing group meeting for the Founding Father’s Tribe on April 19, Jeff Clark had us reflect on Proverbs 10:22 – The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, And He adds no sorrow (labor) with it! Jeff went on to explain that the Hebrew word translated sorrow here actually means hard labor, hard toil, striving. He said another way to translate Proverbs 10:22 is “The blessing of the LORD makes one rich, and our labor adds nothing to it!” Through Jesus Christ, we become adopted sons of Abba Father, being set free from the bondage of sin and death. After our spiritual rebirth, God wants us to live our lives as sons of His, not as slaves.

God defines success in terms of faith, not just professed belief in Him, but active, daily, risk-taking trust like that of the great people of Hebrews 11. Trust and faithfulness form the foundation of every relationship. God hungers for you to hear His voice so desperately. This is what God created you for. This is what He called you for. This is God’s heart passion for you. He loves you and wants to give Himself to you. As I reflect back on this past year (2011), a consistent theme emerges – “Intimacy with God”

Yesterday during the worship service at Soul Purpose Church, Pastor Matt Gregory preached what I considered one of his best sermons. His message was titled “My Most Important Workout.” Matt compared taking care of your spirit consistently like you take care or your physical body. He emphasized the importance of journaling to REMEMBER and to record your journey with God. He talked about the value of 2-way journaling. Here is an outline of Matt’s message

Welcome to Day #2 of your “30 Days To Breakthrough” journey. According to Socrates, the unexamined life is not worth living! In his book “The Life You’ve Always Wanted,” John Ortberg teaches spiritual disciplines for ordinary people. In Chapter 5 titled “An Unhurried Life,” John explains “the practice of ’slowing’.” John states: “The lives of the hurry-sick lack simplicity. Hurried people cannot love. Today we have largely traded wisdom for information.
