God's awesome assurance

Isn't it great to never hunger or thirst? That's the awesome assurance we get from God -- the awesome guarantee that Jesus tells us in John 6:35 when He declares, "I am the bread of life. Whoever comes to me will never go hungry, and whoever believes in me will never be thirsty."

We can walk in assurance and confidence that with Jesus, we will never go wrong. It doesn't mean we will live a sinless perfect life. It means our life will always be one of protection and coverage in all the things of God, because as fast as we can ask, He's already forgiven us.

Never being hungry or thirsty means having an endless supply of grace, favor, and mercy at our fingertips, simply because we are God's off-spring and He can shower us with any of those things whenever He so chooses. No, we can't take those things for granted, but we can be blessed with His goodness even though we don't come anywhere close to deserving it. Thankfully though, we can call Him, "Father".

Yes, God activates His blessings as we continue to trust in Him. And although we don't always know when He will act, He will remember what He said in John 6:35. Getting our daily bread -- our daily dose of the Lord, is something we sometimes overlook, but He's there regardless. He loves us that much and He gives us that awesome assurance constantly.

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. When I was going through a dark time -- when I had nothing -- there was a certain person who helped me sometimes. She helped me whenever she basically felt like it, but she did help, and for that I'm appreciative. But, something interesting happened after I started growing out of my despair. Something interesting started happening when I no longer needed her for anything. And something interesting happened even though I remained kind and grateful towards. The interesting thing that happened was that she started hating on me. She started treating me differently. At first I was really bothered by it, because I thought she and her husband were nice people I wanted in my life. I liked that they had a sense of compassion and were interested in helping people who were down and low. That really appealed to me, because I was raised that way; my mother was raised that way; her mother was raised that way, and it goes back to as fa

Daily Devotional Podcast. Follow along with blog post. How are you feeling today? What kind of head space have you been in lately? I ask, because I'm just wondering if anybody feels like me -- free like me. Free as an eagle. Free as can be. That's right, out with doing business the old stale way and in with a fresh new operation. It's a shifting happening in the atmosphere of Sharon's life and I'm moving on to the big and awesome things God has for me. What do you say for yourself? What are you speaking over your life? What it is for you? For me, I am no longer afraid to go out in the deep end. I am no longer afraid to fly higher, I am no longer concerned about what I have or do not have, and I am no longer concerned about what anybody thinks or says. Who the heck cares anymore? I don't. Because God tells me he doesn't give me a spirit of fear or timidity ( 2 Timothy 1 :7) , but He gives me a spirit of love, confidence, power, self-control, and
