The Alignment

What I’m building aligns with the season of life I’m in now.
Not hustle-for-the-sake-of-hustle.
Not quick wins. Something intentional. Sustainable.
And designed to grow with me – not burn me out.

Pray every where, lifting up holy hands, without wrath and doubting.

The true worshippers shall worship the Father in spirit and in truth: for the Father seeketh such to worship him. God [is] a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship [him] in spirit and in truth.--Then shalt thou call, and the LORD shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I [am].--When ye stand praying, forgive, if ye have ought against any.
Without faith [it is] impossible to please [him]: for he that cometh to God must believe that he is, and [that] he is a rewarder of them that diligently seek him.--Let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.

If I regard iniquity in my heart, the Lord will not hear [me].--My little children, these things write I unto you, that ye sin not. And if any man sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous: and he is the propitiation for our sins: and not for ours only, but also for [the sins of] the whole world.

The Quiet Work

I’ve been quieter than usual lately because my energy has been going into building something meaningful behind the scenes.

Planning. Learning. Creating.

The kind of work that doesn’t show right away… but changes everything once it does. 👀

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.

The love of God is shed abroad in our hearts by the Holy Ghost which is given unto us.--Ye have not received the spirit of bo***ge again to fear; but ye have received the Spirit of adoption, whereby we cry, Abba, Father. The Spirit itself beareth witness with our spirit, that we are the children of God.--He that believeth on the Son of God hath the witness in himself.

In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.--In whom we have redemption through his blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of his grace.--That in the ages to come he might shew the exceeding riches of his grace in [his] kindness toward us through Christ Jesus.

Beloved, if God so loved us, we ought also to love one another.

1 JOHN 4:7. Ro 5:5.--Ro 8:15,16--1 Jn 5:10. 1 Jn 4:9.--Ep 1:7.--Ep 2:7. 1 Jn 4:11.

For this purpose the Son of God was manifested, that he might destroy the works of the devil.

We wrestle not against flesh and blood, but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high [places].--Forasmuch... as the children are partakers of flesh and blood, he also himself likewise took part of the same; that through death he might destroy him that had the power of death, that is, the devil--[And] having spoiled principalities and powers, he made a shew of them openly, triumphing over them.--I heard a loud voice saying in heaven, Now is come salvation, and strength, and the kingdom of our God, and the power of his Christ: for the accuser of our brethren is cast down, which accused them before our God day and night. And they overcame him by the blood of the Lamb, and by the word of their testimony; and they loved not their lives unto the death.

Thanks [be] to God, which giveth us the victory through our Lord Jesus Christ.

1 JN 3:8. Ep 6:12.--Heb 2:14.--Col 2:15.--Re 12:10,11. 1 Co 15:57.

Faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.
If in this life only we have hope in Christ, we are of all men most miserable.
Eye hath not seen, nor ear heard, neither have entered into the heart of man, the things which God hath prepared for them that love him.--After that ye believed, ye were sealed with that holy Spirit of promise, which is the earnest of our inheritance until the redemption of the purchased possession.
Jesus saith unto him, Thomas, because thou hast seen me, thou hast believed: blessed [are] they that have not seen, and [yet] have believed.--Whom having not seen, ye love; in whom, though now ye see [him] not, yet believing, ye rejoice with joy unspeakable and full of glory: receiving the end of your faith, [even] the salvation of [your] souls.
We walk by faith, not by sight.--Cast not away therefore your confidence, which hath great recompence of reward.
HEB 11:1. 1 Co 15:19. 1 Co 2:9,10.--Ep 1:13,14.--Jn 20:29--1 Pe 1:8,9. 2 Co 5:7.--Heb 10:35.

It pleased the LORD to bruise him; he hath put [him] to grief.
Now is my soul troubled; and what shall I say? Father, save me from this hour: but for this cause came I unto this hour. Father, glorify thy name. Then came there a voice from heaven, [saying], I have both glorified [it], and will glorify [it] again.--Father, if thou be willing, remove this cup from me: nevertheless not my will, but thine, be done. And there appeared an angel unto him from heaven, strengthening him.
Being found in fashion as a man, he humbled himself, and became obedient unto death, even the death of the cross--Therefore doth my Father love me, because I lay down my life, that I might take it again.--For I came down from heaven, not to do mine own will, but the will of him that sent me.--The cup which my Father hath given me, shall I not drink it?
The Father hath not left me alone; for I do always those things that please him.--My beloved Son, in whom I am well pleased.--Mine elect, [in whom] my soul delighteth.
Isa 53:10. Jn 12:27,28. Lu 22:42,43. Phil 2:8.--Jn 10:17.--Jn 6:38.--Jn 18:11.--Jn 8:29.--Mt 3:17.--Is 42:1.

Mercy and truth are met together; righteousness and peace have kissed [each other].

A just God and a Saviour.

The LORD is well pleased for his righteousness'sake; he will magnify the law, and make [it] honourable.

God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them.--Whom God hath set forth [to be] a propitiation through faith in his blood, to declare his righteousness for the remission of sins that are past, through the forbearance of God; to declare, [I say], at this time his righteousness: that he might be just, and the justifier of him which believeth in Jesus.--He [was] wounded for our transgressions, [he was] bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace [was] upon him; and with his stripes we are healed.--Who shall lay any thing to the charge of God's elect? [It is] God that justifieth.--To him that worketh not, but believeth on him that justifieth the ungodly, his faith is counted for righteousness.

DAY 1 – The Decision Point

I’ve been sitting with something quietly for a while now.

After a lot of reflection, conversations, and listening ..., I decided to start a new online business. I’m not ready to share details yet…
but this one feels different – in the best way. 🤍
