Six Million Dollar Man and Woman

5/26/2017

1 Comment

 
Waking up one morning in a very broken state of life, I heard God, Jesus and the Holy Spirit agreeing over me saying, “We can rebuild her.  We have the tools.”  If you grew up when I did, you’d know those are the words to the intro of the weekly sci-fi show “The Six Million Dollar Man” airing 1974-78’.  Astronaut Steve Austin was in a spaceship crash and scientists rebuilt him with bionics in surgery, costing six million dollars.  I had to pull up the video below.  Listen to the words and insert your own name in it.   

“Denise Flynn…we can rebuild her…We have the tools…We have the capability…  Denise Flynn will be that woman.  Better than she was before.  Better…Stronger…Faster.”  
  
Don’t you love it!  No matter what's going on right now, no matter how broken you are, if you go through it right with God, you will come out healed and better.  Lean into God.  Use Him for His healing love and power. Know that He wants to love on you and help you.  Keep your attitudes toward him and not turning away or  lacking trust and hope.  Don't become bitter.  Be obedient. In doing so, we can count on His promises to rebuild us.

 “He heals the brokenhearted and binds up their wounds" (Psalm 147:3).

“Not only so, but we also glory in our sufferings, because we know that suffering produces
perseverance;  perseverance, character; and character, hope.   And hope does not put us to shame, because God’s love has been poured out into our hearts through the Holy Spirit, who has been given to us.”  Romans 5:3-5
 
 
     Yeah, these promises can be yours at the cost and sacrifice of Jesus.  Look out for YOU…future Six Million Dollar Man and Woman in process of being rebuilt right now!

Selling Yourself

5/26/2017

I used to be in Sales and Advertising Sales.  Actually, we are all in Sales.  We are selling ourselves to others all throughout life.  We sell ourselves at an interview, to our children when we are promoting chores instead of Xbox, to a friend to see one movie over another, or to a significant other in a marriage proposal.  (Actually, I was bought and returned on that one once, but it’s all okay now.)  The list goes on.

     There is a common sales and advertising slogan.  “You’ll be so glad you did.”  You’ll be so glad you bought my product.  You’ll be so glad you’ve invested in my service.  This saying has always stuck with me and I now apply it to more situations than selling or making money. 

      “You’ll be so glad you did.”  My friends may even hear me say or write it.  I wonder if they know I
am trying to persuade them when I do.

      This is where the saying really fits well.  You will be so glad you did not sin.  You will be so glad you did not eat those extra snacks.  You’ll be so glad you did not spend the extra money. You will be so glad you put in the extra time into that project.  You will be so glad you did not say those extra words positioned to leap off your tongue. You’ll be so glad you gave more than you originally wanted to. 
You’ll be so glad you went the extra mile.  You’ll be so glad you did not withhold.  You’ll be so glad you did not disappoint God. You will be so glad you did not grieve the Lord.  You will be so glad you did not take advantage of His blood that He shed for you. You will be satisfied.  God will be pleased and you will be with peace.  
 
      Satisfied.  The word resonates sweetness.  Generally, we are satisfied when we have no or few regrets.  Isn’t that worth so much.

      So considering “You’ll be so glad you did” the next time you really want to do something and you know you shouldn’t is a good thing.  Consider it too when you really don’t want to do something and know you should.  Sell yourself on it.  You’ll be so glad you did.


     You may have to refuse the urge several times of that thing you want to participate in. You may have to ask God several times for the grace and strength to withstand.   You may have to say “Lord, make me willing.”  And He will.

      Life cannot always or even frequently be about the immediate pleasure, but in long term prospering.  Many times we cannot easily go back to change things.  It may take a long
time and much pain and prayer.  I’ve been saying “NO” to a bag of chips all evening, and come tomorrow, I’ll not be wishing I had done differently.  (And I’ll be so glad when my son eats
them before me.)

     And this is where discipline and strength from the Lord comes in.  Seek Him and it will be provided. 

“I will sing of your strength, in the morning I will sing of your love; for you are my fortress, my refuge in times of trouble.”  Psalm 59:16, 17

“All your commands are trustworthy;” Psalm 119:86

So consider all deeply…You’ll be so glad you did.
