Writings from the Global Office Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us. Ephesians 3:20 (KJV)
Empowering Lives with Purpose INSPIRATION What inspires you? As we go through our day-to-day responsibilities and get caught up in the “busyness” of life, it is easy to lose sight of the inspirations that speak to our hearts, moving us forward with positive ideas. I am a creative person, and simply looking at nature – with its sights and sounds and sunshine - can inspire my creative gifting. But that inspiration is rooted in knowing God’s Word, which teaches us who God is and the beauty He has bestowed on this world. The stories in the Bible also motivate me, drawing me further into the Word of God for my inspiration. Scripture propels me forward every day, directing me to live an abundant lifestyle that has value. To me, that is true inspiration. God wants us to experience abundant living, but often we are stuck in a rut with no inspiration to move us on to action. I hope I can inspire you by listing scriptures that might spark ideas of Godly inspiration into your life. After all, God’s Word tells us that All scripture is inspired by God and is useful to teach us. (2 Timothy 3:16 NLT) May these scriptures teach, inspire, and help you as you glean guidance from God’s Word.
