HIS Life, Not Mine

-
Hello friends! I am beyond excited and grateful to start using my love of writing for HIS glory and to share it with you! 

Today's topic is one that is very important to me. To start things off, this blog is not mine. You might be a little confused. Honestly, if you talked to me just a couple years ago I would too! I would say that everything I owned or did was mine. Well friends, I want to let you know that it very much is not! The reason however, will leave you more free than you came in! 

Think of it like a play or a musical. You audition and get a part to represent a character. You show the whole world the character's story. At the end of the day, the character really is not you, you were just representing the character. Now, with that same type of mindset, that is us. 

Our life is not our own. Everything we do is for GOD. We are living HIS life for HIM! I know at this moment you might be thinking that is not fair or now you cannot do anything you love in life. Well friend, what I think is not fair is how endless GOD's love and grace is for us while we are still sinners. 

Now, remember what I said earlier? That why our life is not ours will leave you more free? Here is why you will be more free realizing you are living HIS life not your own!

Do you ever just feel empty? You had a full day of work or school then did a hobby or even exercise. You are so tired and just want to relax by watching some tv or scrolling on your phone. You then eat dinner or have to make dinner for your family. You are wanting to plop in bed as you are so exhausted but realize you need to do your chores. You finally reach your beloved bed again and glance at your Bible but are to tired to open it. You end your day and turn your lights off. 

I know in crazy times like these your days might not be as full. But, what are you filling your day with? Are you just watching tv or on your phone? After a day like that what do you feel? Empty. Friend, I know these scenarios all to well.

Finally, this brings me to the point. We feel empty because this is not our life! We were not made to live for ourselves! Everything we do or own is not ours, it is HIS! We are living HIS life! You might be thinking that now you feel captive and that you cannot live. Friend, that is the complete opposite! Living our life the way we were meant to will be the most freeing and joyful life! 

You may be wondering how to live HIS life and not your own. And the simple answer is to spend every moment with HIM and for HIM! I know that probably does not make much sense as we have things to do in this life so I will expand on that next. I challenge you friends to read GOD's Word every morning to start your day and think about HIM throughout your day! 

I look forward to writing to you next about what living HIS life looks like! 

Have a lovely day or night wherever you are! 

For HIM,
~Sabina

A Joyful Season Through it All

“In your silent night, when you’re not alright, lift your eyes and behold HIM.” -Behold HIM by Francesca Battistelli Having an illness means that it doesn’t go away during special times in life. Still sick during the holidays. In fact, my illness has even been processing further during this season. But, even as I lay in bed with debilitating symptoms unable to live life, I can still have joy this Christmas season. Doing family worship every single day for advent (November 28-January 6) has been one of my most cherished memories these days. It is like a mini service every day with Scripture, prayer, meditations, creeds, catechism questions, and adorations! It has really set my mind to be excited on CHRIST. I’m so blessed, so blessed, y’all. Through the raw tears, through the unending pain, through my life spent in bed, through it all, I have an eternal joy in JESUS my LORD. HE holds me. I cannot express how grateful and joyful I am. Through the hard news, through the waiting, thro

Victorious Sacrifice!

Hello friends! Today's topic will be about how JESUS' last words on the cross were victorious!  When Jesus had received the sour wine, he said, “It is finished.” Then bowing his head, he gave up his spirit. ~ John 19:30 CSB The Greek word for "It is finished" is so powerful! It actually means that debt is paid! They used this word on writings whenever a debt was paid. JESUS' last word on the cross meant that our debt was paid. The word is so beautiful and strong.  Here is what Charles Spurgeon wrote about this word: "It is finished." There is only one Greek word for this utterance of our LORD, although to translate it into English, we have to use three words-an ocean of meaning in a drop of a language. Yet it would need all the other words ever spoken, or can ever be spoken, to explain this one word. It is altogether immeasurable. It is high-I can not attain it. It is deep-I can not fathom it. I always knew that "It is finished," was the end o

Every Human Heart Will Melt

Isaiah   13:6-7 [6] Wail, for the day of the LORD is near; as destruction from the Almighty it will come! [7] Therefore all hands will be feeble, and every human heart will melt.  "Every human heart will melt."      On the day of the LORD, every human heart will melt.  Just a simple thought that came to me about this statement was how we are given a new heart  when the LORD calls us. We were born with a heart of stone, and the LORD gave us a heart of flesh.        To think the heart of stone is what is going to melt on the day of descruction just reveals our Mighty GOD's glory! Just as the LORD taking our heart of stone and making it a heart of flesh reveals HIS glory, so does melting (destroying) the heart of stone.      If you still have a heart of stone, repent of your sins and look to JESUS and HE will give you a heart of flesh! Commit your life to the LORD and contnually repent!      If the LORD has already chosen you and given you a heart of flesh, rejoice! Praise H
