Kingdom living begins with living for the King! During the next month I want to invite you to join me in captivating an Audience of One.
31 Therefore, whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do all to the glory of God.
1 Cor 10:31 (NKJV)
By exploring the topic of the Audience of One we are opening ourselves to the freedom and excitement of His approval of all we do. Remembering that He is our continuous audience of One. Join me here for what it looks like to live and love for the King.
❤ Melinda

I, like Mary, am mostly found at the feet of Jesus asking for words that give life. I blog straight from the heart with the encouragement gleaned from sitting at His feet. So sit down at the well and drink deep. Know you are His Beloved.
I am 44, on disability due to Fibromyalgia, a worshiper, a daughter of a King, a wife with the best husband in the world, a mother of four beautiful girls, a student pursuing a degree in Christian Counseling, a writer, a vocalist, and coffee lover. My best friend is a good book, and my nemesis is the perpetual laundry pile. I love to watch movies that take me away, quilt, crochet, knit, and learn.
I pray the words written here are not written in vain but are purposed by God to encourage His Beloved. Thank you for stopping by. Oh, How He Loves Us!

Reblogged this on Beloved Hope Endures and commented:
The Jewish New Year began this week with the celebration of Rosh Hashanah. The beginning of the year on God’s calendar. This morning my pastor encouraged us to seek the Lord, and to ask Him to increase our desire for Him. He said, and I am paraphrasing that, “Wrong desires, lead to wrong direction, and wrong direction leads to wrong destiny. Therefore, let this be a time for us to increase our desire for God.”
When we begin to pursue God then we will come to desire Him more and more because as we draw near to Him, He draws near to us.
With ungodly desires we turn from what God desires, which is our pursuit of HIm, not what He does, or can do, but God Himself, to things we have been tempted to follow due to our own lusts. The problem is there is never enough to filI us up. Only God can do that.
If we wish to seek direction then we must pursue the one who gives it.
I have a history of addiction. I know how easily it is for me to turn towards something other than God to fill me. I have at times desired the blessings of God and not the Blesser. The healing and not the Healer. The provision and not the Provider, etc.
We can forget that He is our audience. I often tell my children that they have no one to impress. They need only be concerned about what God thinks. He is the audience that matters. So I am taking this month to recount the journey I took over a year ago in pursuing an audience of One. Weekly there will be posts from this series. I pray as you seek the Audience of One the presence of God will so bless you and be life changing in this season of your life. ❤ Melinda
