Talk

Talk to people about the things in life that really matter. Go deep. Share deep your self. Ask them how they really are. And listen! Tell them how you really are and give them the chance to administer the love of God to you.

Imagine

Imagine Jesus is with you, physically, in person, at the beach, or a coffee shop, or at some place that is special for you. Use your imagination to see Jesus there with you, to listen to what he might have to say to you. Spend some quality time together.

Troubles

Troubles develop our perseverance and can strengthen our ties with God, leading to a deeper understanding of ourselves and of God. The hammer shatters glass but forges steel. Take troubles as a challenging opportunity to develop your endurance and dependence on God. Work the troubles until they give up something good.

Listen

Listen to great music with God. Put on music that really inspires you and listen to it as a spiritual refresher. Let it lift your spirit.

Life is for Living

Life be in it. Do things! Don’t just sit around and wait to die. Explore this fantastic life you have been given to its fullest before you go to meet God face to face.

Live out loud! Be enthusiastic – live life to the fullest. Jesus said, “I have come that you might have life, life in all its fullness.”

Diamonds

Look at a diamond. Appreciate its sparkling beauty. Diamonds began as dirty lumps of black coal you know. With a lot of time and the right kind of pressure, coal is totally and radically converted into something very different. It’s hard to see a potential diamond when looking at a piece of coal.

Imagine what God can do with your life if you give yourself to him! It may take time, and the right kind of pressure, but you too can sparkle and shine for God. Sparkle today.
