Breathe in Life!

“For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.”

Jeremiah 29:11

There is an old adage I vaguely remember from years ago that went something like this:

“In goes the good air, out goes the bad.”

It was speaking of every breath we inhale and exhale.

We inhale oxygen rich air from the atmosphere and we exhale carbon dioxide.

Our expectations can be a lot like that old adage too.

Your life will expand because of your hope filled expectations or your life will be reduced because of your fear filled expectations.

God gives us a hope and a future.

He is indeed that good, good Father we sing about.

But we choose what we will expect.

Two people can face the exact same circumstances and yet one can be filled with hope and expectation for good while the other is filled with fear and an expectation for the worst possible outcome.

Take God at His Word!

Believe and know that His plans for you are indeed good and allow that expectation and hope to inform your behavior.

Breath in life!
