<\/a>If so, let me encourage you by sharing today\u2019s uplifting song, \u201cThrive.\u201d When our day-to-day schedules and routines drain us of every ounce of energy and motivation there is a greater source we can tap into for renewal.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n
God wants more for us than just survival. He wants us to thrive! With God\u2019s Holy Spirit within us, we are able to do just that.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
The Holy Spirit provides everything we need to thrive. Energy. Strength. Encouragement. Motivation. Hope. Reminders. Truth. Counsel. Peace. Guidance. And this is just the beginning.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
When we are in the midst of this worn and weary land, God\u2019s Spirit will flow through us and renew our spirits. As we ask for God\u2019s Spirit to be at work in our lives, His presence becomes evident.<\/p>\n
<\/p>\n
Galatians 5:22-23 (NIV) tells us how the Spirit shows up in our lives. \u201cThe fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control. Against such things there is no law.\u201d <\/em>These characteristics flourish when God\u2019s Spirit is at work.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n So today if you\u2019re struggling with getting into your routine as I am, why not rely on God\u2019s Spirit to lead you to thrive? Why not allow God\u2019s Spirit to transform your spirit to be more in line with God\u2019s plan to thrive? Why not run to the Living Water who wants the best for your life? I believe it\u2019s a great day to thrive!<\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u201cThrive\u201d<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Here in this worn and weary land So living water flowing through <\/p>\n Chorus:<\/p>\n Just to know You and <\/p>\n Into Your word we’re digging deep So living water flowing through (Chorus)<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Joy Unspeakable, Faith Unsinkable, Love Unstoppable, Anything is possible (Chorus)[i]<\/a> Casting Crowns version of this song is available for your listening pleasure by clicking here<\/a>.<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Grace and peace be yours in abundance,<\/p>\n <\/p>\n Donna<\/p>\n
\nWhere many a dream has died
\nLike a tree planted by the water
\nWe never will run dry<\/p>\n
\nGod we thirst for more of You
\nFill our hearts and flood our souls
\nWith one desire<\/p>\n
\nTo make You known
\nWe lift Your name on High
\nShine like the sun make darkness run and hide
\nWe know we were made for so much more
\nThan ordinary lives
\nIt’s time for us to more than just survive
\nWe were made to thrive<\/p>\n
\nTo know our Father’s heart
\nInto the world we’re reaching out
\nTo show them who You are<\/p>\n
\nGod we thirst for more of You
\nFill our hearts and flood our souls
\nWith one desire<\/p>\n
\nJoy Unspeakable, Faith Unsinkable, Love Unstoppable, Anything is possible<\/p>\n
\n <\/p>\n
