BARKIN’ DOGS
“So you testify that you approve of what your ancestors did; they killed the prophets, and you build their tombs.” – Luke 11:48
Pharisees are still alive today — people who kill the Jesus-planted dream in your heart. But you don’t have to stop at every dog that barks.
But barking dogs may have already affected you. Insecurities,
disappointments, and low self-esteem talk you out of God’s dream. Dogs
might be barking so loud that you can’t hear the Spirit within that
says: “Everyone has seeds of greatness. You have a gift to share with
the world. There is a buried treasure in you. You have true potential
that has not yet been released. You may have victories in the past, but
that’s nothing compared to what God has in store for your future.”
God didn’t make average people. You are not ordinary!
You can overcome all obstacles. You can recover from a fall. When you
go out of your comfort zone and step out in faith, God releases more of
His favor. When you think bigger, God will act bigger. God shows up —
and in unusual ways. If you take care of the natural, He will do the
supernatural. If you take care of the ordinary, He will do the
extraordinary.
Friend, do you hear that? Jon Escoto (faithatworkjon@gmail.com)
Reflection: Hush the dogs. What is the Spirit saying to your heart now? Friend, listen to Him.
Lord, speak to me now. Help me to know the “true” me and live it out.
Blessed Marguerite d’Youville, religious, pray for us.
