When you are encouraged, you have more hope and you have more courage. You are inspired with confidence. What is inspiring you? What is motivating you to do what you do? Are you being motivated by God and His Word? Are the words that are coming into your ear gates causing you to be inspired and are the images that are coming into your eye gates causing you to see life God's way? Are both the words and the images that you are coming to you inspiring you to move forward with God or are they leading you to a place where you are further away from God?
Understand, what you see, what you feel (or what touches you), and what you hear, ALL MATTER. What you see, feel, and hear ALL trigger emotions that cause you to be in motion. The question is, where is that motion moving you? Another question is what emotions are those things triggering within you?
God has a plan for your life and His plan includes you representing Him well. In essence, His plan for you life is for you to lead others in life closer to Him. Are you fulfilling that plan? Are you leading others closer to Him by allowing His light to shine bright through you in this dark world? There are many emotions that come with life and I pray that you are encouraged and led by the emotions that lead you and others into a closer relationship with God.
SCRIPTURE MEDITATION
Joshua 1:9
Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be frightened, and do not be dismayed, for the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.
