The Complete Package

 The Complete Package

 

Matthew 6:33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things shall be added to you.

 

I heard a story today of a woman’s wedding day.  For most, especially the bride, their wedding day can be one of the most stressful days of one’s life.  Kate’s wedding day didn’t have any stress for her because she and her husband to be had purchased a complete wedding package from the hotel that would be hosting the wedding.  The only thing that Kate and Chris needed to provide was what they were going to wear.  Kate had so much peace that when the wedding photographer came to take the before pictures, he commented that she was the most relaxed bride he had ever seen.  

There were some difficulties that came up during the day BUT because they had purchased the COMPLETE PACKAGE they didn’t have to worry because the hotel took care of it.  A balloon that had deflated, it was immediately replaced. Someone was mistakenly seated in the wrong place, no worries the staff took care of it.  No matter what did or would have come up the hotel’s staff had it covered because Kate and Chris had the complete package.

Jesus, at the cross, paid for us the complete package all we have to do is receive it by grace through faith. Once we do that we don’t have to worry about a thing.  Not because we won’t have problems or trials but because we, through Christ, have the COMPLETE PACKAGE.

The Price and Cost for more of God and His Presence

  The Price and Cost for more of God and His Presence I was reading an account of a preacher’s experience that I had previous heard him describe before in a sermon. Thought the account was familiar to me this time though it hit different.   The experience was during a time he had spent months desiring and seeking more of God and His Presence.  There were two statements that the preacher made from this account that the Lord highlighted for me.  The first was “My request for more of God carried a price” and the second was from his cry to the Lord “I must have more of You at any cost!”. These statements when I had heard them before sounded very true and I totally had agreed with them.  In fact, they had inspired me.  This time, though, was different.  This time there was at first, for a moment fear and not a Godly fear.  No, it was a fear that the price I would have to pay would be the cost of the life of one or mor...

Fragrance

  Fragrance   2 Corinthians 2:14-15   Now thanks  be  to God who always leads us in triumph in Christ, and through us diffuses the fragrance of His knowledge in every place.  15  For we are to God the fragrance of Christ among those who are being saved and among those who are perishing.   Today in a prayer meeting someone mentioned the word fragrance as they were praying. The first thing that popped into my head was of a college student who had come into my store yesterday.  This young man had gone a little overboard, in my opinion, with his cologne.  It was so strong that I could smell him coming.  I also have customers who come in to the store with a different type of fragrance, one that isn’t pleasant.  In both cases you can smell them before you even see them and also the fragrance sticks around for a while after they leave.  The point of this being that fragrance influences and ...
