Moved

To fall in love with God is the greatest romance; to seek him the greatest adventure; to find him, the great
human achievement. St. Augustine of Hippo St.


The meaning of moved having strong feelings of sadness or sympathy because of something someone has said or done:

 

The word moved is mentioned approximately 368 times.

 

The word moved can mean many things... We can move an object from one place to another.  We can move our lives forward with certain actions that cause change. 

 

But for a Bible word study, I thought it would be best if we went straight to the heart. 

 

We speak a lot about loving God with all of our hearts and soul and all of our minds... How do we accomplish this? How do we understand and execute this type of love?  

 

I truly do not understand it fully? But I can speak to a day I remember vividly. I was in deep prayer and conversation with Elohim... and I felt a rush of love that I could not explain.. You may say oh that nothing, people say that happens to people when they are in God's presence? I understand but I still try to understand what happened that day... 


You see it was not only His love I felt... I felt Him. I felt His love in my soul. It’s an overwhelming feeling that is hard to put into words. I was so deeply moved by His very presence. But something I do know. 


It's at that very moment in time.  I fell in Love with Him. 


On that day, the word moved became the reality that brought Him to live in my heart... His love became ingrained into the very fiber of my soul... It's a love that we can not take it for granted. We can not let it lay there dormant.. It's up to each of us to cultivate this amazing love. And as we do it will grow into a beautiful relationship with our Creator. You see I am no different than you. He loves us all the same. It up to us... It's what we do with His love that makes us who we are... 


Then I ask, how does He have this effect on hearts and souls? What is this magical LOVE that He has shared with all of mankind? Who is this soul that moves us with just a whisper? Who is this soul that has moved and motivated men and women to do great things? Who is He? Who can move mountains with just a stroke of His hand? Who would give up life itself just to save his children?? 

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him 

 

He moves me... 

 

He was "deeply moved in spirit" when he saw Mary weeping over the death of Lazarus.  John 11:33

 

For prophecy never came by the will of man, but holy men of God spoke as they were moved by the Holy Spirit. 2 Peter 1:21 NKJ

 

And He *said to them, “Because of the littleness of your faith; for truly I say to you, if you have faith the size of a mustard seed, you will say to this mountain, ‘Move from here to there,’ and it will move, and nothing will be impossible to you. Matthew 17:20

Isaiah 49:16 (CJB) I have engraved you on the palms of my hands


Triune Love me - Podcast Episode # 9 Triune Loves me / Podcast

Have you ever heard that very small whisper in your soul? Have you ever asked yourself is God trying to tell me something? You shake your head as say no that must be me? How do we know if it truly is a message from God? Do we listen? Do we argue? Do we follow through? Or do we dismiss Him? We all must find that moment when we tune in to His voice. But How?

Fragmented



 Meaning of Fragmented adjective. reduced to fragments. existing or functioning as though broken into separate parts; disorganized; disunified: a fragmented personality; a fragmented society.

 

The word fragment is in the Bible approximately 17 times. 

 

Do we live a fragmented life? When I see the word fragmented my mind drifted here… Pieces of broken glass.. all different shapes all different colors … Most of us would not think twice about just throwing them out. 

 

Do we treat the other things in our lives the same as this shattered glass? Do we treat relationships that are shattered the same? Do we treat our broken hearts the same? Do we treat our relationship with God the same? 

 

Or do we use the gifts our Creator gave us? Have we learned anything from our mentor and teacher Jesus? But you say what can you do with that shattered glass? Glue it? It will never be the same? It has lost the beauty it once had? 

 

I say If we can train ourselves to see the beauty in each piece. If we can see its value. With Love and care, we can bring the pieces together and build a beautiful kaleidoscope of color. It has all the same pieces but has a new start and a new look. It’s is to be held up and admired. And you will find when positioned just right the light shines through and captures the fragments of its true beauty. 

 

I do feel we are made up of fragments of our true selves… We hide behind many shades of color… We just need someone to hold us with loving care. And when positioned just right the light will shine through and capture the fragments of our true beauty.

 

I find this happens when we allow our teacher Jesus to hold us and as we gather the fragments of the shattered pieces … He teaches us how to shine His beautiful light and we become a kaleidoscope of beautiful color.  He is the master of creating beauty out of fractured lives.

 

Its Him, Its always Him 

 

He is the GLUE to life. 


Moreover, the light of the moon will be like the light of the sun, and the light of the sun will be seven times brighter, like the light of seven days, in the day that the LORD binds up the fracture of his people, and heals the wound they were struck with. New Heart English Bible Isaiah 30:26

Gate


 Still, round the corner, there may wait, A new road or a secret gate. j.R.R.TolKien


Meaning of Gate: an opening in a wall or fence. 2: a city or castle entrance often with defensive structures (such as towers) 3a: the frame or door that closes a gate. b: a movable barrier (as at a grade crossing) 4a: a means of entrance or exit.

 

There are so many gates mentioned in the Bible. In fact, the word gate appears 418 times in the KJV.

 

As I thought about the word gate. This image crept into my mind. A small child.. a summer day and a farmhouse with a fence and a gate. 

I don’t know about you but if this child is me. I would put my small feet on the base of the gate and push. It squeaks, I giggle and find its quite fun.. lets do it again and again… such a cheap thrill. But this thrill and fun are short-lived because I hear my Father’s voice calling me home. 

 

You ask what does that have to do with a Bible word study?? 

 

I say a lot… How many of us ride the fence? How many keep our feet on the Gate? How many cannot see our way clear to focus on the gate. How many of us are still looking for the thrill? How many do not hear our father's voice calling us home? 

 

The Bible is clear that Christ is the gate. He is the only entry point into the presence of God.  He himself tells us He is the Door/Gate. 

 

So, the question becomes, do we keep looking for the cheap thrill, the fun moments. Or do we focus on Christ? Do we focus on a greater love for eternity? Do we prepare our hearts to walk through the gate? or do our feet get stuck in the holes of the swinging gate?? 

 

We all have choices to make? For me, I am determined not to ride the gate but I am determined to focus on Him.

 

Its Him, It's always Him..,

 

“Enter by the narrow gate. For the gate is wide and the way is easy that leads to destruction, and those who enter by it are many. For the gate is narrow and the way is hard that leads to life, and those who find it are few. Matthew 7:13-14


Do your best to present yourself to God as one approved, a worker who has no need to be ashamed, rightly handling the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15

Soft


Did my heart love till now? forswear it, sight! For I ne'er saw true beauty till this night.” ― William Shakespeare.. 


Meaning of soft: having a pleasing quality involving a subtle effect or contrast rather than a sharp definition

 

The word soft is in 40 occurrences in 12 translations 

In the Bible. 

 

What do you think of when you hear the word soft? I immediately think of a famous Shakespearean quote from one of the most romantic stories of its time. Romeo and Juliet... “But soft, what light through yonder window breaks? It is the east, and Juliet is the sun. Arise, fair sun, and kill the envious moon. “

 

When reading these words there is a gentleness, there is a subtle feeling, there is a faint whisper of love that speaks to our hearts. 

 

So what does this have to do with a Bible Word Study?  

 

It's Him... When we pursue Him you will find a soft gentleness... Far beyond any earthly gift, you will ever encounter. You will find emotions of love from the depths of your soul.  His grace will softly wrap you in His loving arms. He has the power to engulf all your senses. 

 

It’s Him. 

 

He wrote the book on Romance. He knows each of us so intimately. His words speak softly to our hearts. He whispers into our souls with a gentleness that will leave a sweet fragrance of love that will linger upon our skin. His Love will continue to call to our hearts until there are no other loves before Him. Only He has the power that will change life as we know it.  He truly is the lover of our soul.

 

But soft, what light through yonder window breaks?

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him. 

 

“I will make you new inside. I will give you a new spirit. You will no longer turn away from me. I will make you want to do the things that give me pleasure.”Ezekiel 36:26 EASY

Sensitive



“A sensitive soul sees the world through the lens of love.” - 


The meaning of Sensitive (of a person or a person's behavior) having or displaying a quick and delicate appreciation of others' feelings

 

There are approximately 70 Bible Verses about Sensitive. 

 

Do you consider yourself a sensitive soul? I do believe there are two sides to this coin.... You could have a heart that is sensitive towards others... Or we could be sensitive on how others treat us..  Some are just plain sensitive souls... 

 

In my lifetime I have heard people say “don’t be so sensitive” ? She/He wears their feelings on their sleeve ? Why do we try to stifle such heartfelt trait??? 


People perceive being sensitive as weak ? Since when did we become so callus ? When did we stop caring about others and how our actions could affect their hearts ?? I do think life scars can build walls, and harden hearts... Or do we just turn away when we think things get a little messy or scary.. I do feel every time you allow life to leave a scar on your heart you become more and more insensitive.. You may not even notice how you have changed but the world around you can see it!! 

Our Creator sees it. 

 

So, when does the world stop and take notice! When do we begin to realize it? 

 

No matter how the world treats us .. No matter the life scars we  possess.. No matter what people say .. Be sensitive, Be caring, Be loving... You may say that is impossible! 


I say look to Jesus as a beautiful example of how to treat the world.. You still might say “sure it was easy for Him, He is God”.  Many may agree! 


However, if you allow Him to show you your sensitive heart... He will show you so many beautiful things about people in the unforgiving world around you..


You will see that it is you that will change... You will become sensitive to the beauty of life. You will find being sensitive may bring you gifts you never even knew existed... 


You will become sensitive to love far beyond anything you have ever experienced... Let Him open your heart, Let Him show you the way. Let Him Love you. Let Him be sensitive to your love for Him... 


He is our only answer to an unforgiving world. His sensitivity to all of mankind is beyond words. I love His sensitive loving nature.  He leaves me speechless.. 

 

It’s Him,  It’s always Him. 

 

It truly is a love story between you and your Creator...

One

“God loves you more in a moment than anyone could in a lifetime.” Anonymous

 

Meaning of the word one: being a single unit or thing

 

The word ‘One’ appears 6621 occurrences in 13 translations. 

 

One... are we alone? Are we set apart? Is there more? Or do we singularly travel life?? 

 

I do believe our Heavenly Father made us complex creatures. Our mind tries to tell us we are one and our mind is in control ... However,  I do believe there is more to us than the mind would like to reveal... We have our body and our soul... We are 3 parts of the oneness that God created. 

 

When I peel this concept back. And I look at scripture Genesis 1:26 Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us. It makes me question this ... I believe many think it's our physical image He was speaking of? 


But when I examine this with my soul ... I gained a different perspective... The mind is the creator, the thinker, the decision-maker... The body is the human form. And the spirit is the Soul... Thus giving us the concept of Mind, Body, and Soul... 


When we look to the oneness of God the Father we have His amazing Mind, creator of all things. The Body is Jesus the Human Part of God. And the Holy Spirit is His beautiful spirit, where His heart and Love dwells... He is one just as we are one ...  The number One has many amazing facets that make up a beautiful complex miracle of life.   

 

Now to complicate things just a little ... when we become believers He sends His Spirit to dwell within us. To be our comforter our teacher and 

and to share Himself on an intimate level with His Children...    

 

So now when we look at our Mind, Body, and Soul just a little further ... we have a unique oneness with God... we call this very part of God the Holy Spirit... It’s here that we feel that oneness with our Heavenly Creator.  He is the most fascinating beautiful 3N1’s we will ever have the privilege to (try) to know... Wow !!! 

 

It’s Him, it’s always Him!   

 

There is no other He is the ONE.

Doubter





“Remember no matter how fast you run, you can't be the winner if you don't finish.


Meaning of a doubter: 

a person who questions or lacks faith in something; a skeptic:

 

There are approximately 45 verses in the Bible about doubters.

 

Are you a doubter ? Are you a believer ? What does that truly mean ? Do you believe in God ? Jesus ? The Holy Spirit ? The Bible? 

I do believe there are many degrees of what we believe .. and it varies by individuals... 

 

Many things can affect how strong your convictions are and just how much we believe... Many have been on a religious journey since they were a child. Many have dabbled in and out of what they truly believe. Some are too busy to even have an opinion. 

 

I have come across a full array of different degrees. And I have come away with these thoughts. 

 

Let’s put religion aside for just a moment... And let’s focus on why we even have religion. It teaches us of His greater love! Its an amazing Love story about all of mankind and our Creator. 

 

There are those that feel, they need proof.  They need to see it or touch it to believe. 

 

I can go back to the very word that points to our creator it’s the word LOVE!!! You can not see it feel it or touch it. But when LOVE comes into your heart it brings peace and joy that your soul can not contain.  

 

The beautiful Triune is the best source for the very LOVE I speaking of .. How can you not believe? If you say I believe then the question becomes.. 

 

Is are you all in ?? Are you fully committed? Or are you a weekend warrior?  He is all in .. He has proven it time and time again. Why do we doubt it ?  When our soul knows it’s Him. 

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him. 

 

When they saw Him, they worshiped Him; but some were doubtful. Matthew 28:17

 

Then Moses said, “What if they will not believe me or listen to what I say? For they may say, ‘The Lord has not appeared to you.’” Exodus 4:1

God's Miracle

 


The Bible lists 333 miracles but that is not all of them. 

The word miracle has such a mystery that surrounds the word itself. There were so many Miracles documented in the Bible and even when they were witnessed by many, there were those that remained as non-believers.  Why do we doubt Him? Why do question his motives as to who and when he touches a life? I do think as an adult our quest to want proof is normal? 

I do think many of us ask why things we want don’t go as planned? I have been just as guilty as many.. However, I identified many miracles in my lifetime. Starting with birth.. each one of us is a living breathing miracle. 

I have learned many things in my quest to know more about My Father, His Son, and the Holy Spirit. I confess I stand in awe 99.9 percent of the time. I hope once you listen you will see miracles really do happen. 

He is the one you praise; he is your God, who performed for you those great and awesome wonders you saw with your own eyes. Deuteronomy 10:21.

Storm


"But let him ask in faith, with no doubting, for the one who doubts is like a wave of the sea that is driven and tossed by the wind." James 1:6

 

Meaning of storm, a violent disturbance of the atmosphere with strong winds and usually rain, thunder, lightning, or snow. A tumultuous reaction; an uproar or controversy: Move angrily or forcefully in a specified direction:

 

The word storm is in the Bible in 119 

 

Storms can come when we least expect them.  Many can come with complete knowledge allowing you to prepare for the worst... When I think of storms I think of Florida where in my lifetime I have weathered many violent storms. 

 

As I think about these storms, I have witnessed the devastation they can cause on life and property. In life, there are storms we face that rage within. 

 

Let’s look at the storms of life that we feel in our soul… It starts with a distant rumble. We can see grey clouds moving swiftly across the sky… Lighting crashing and bolts of light furiously light the dark sky. The winds pick up speed… And we hear the sounds of the rumbling get closer and closer … Everything in its path is showing signs of being battered and worn…  

 

The human soul will hide in fear thinking that it will not be able to stand the violence felt. But when our soul retreats and goes deep. Something amazing happens we find God's gift. He instilled a resilience and a hunger for life in each life He has created... as soon we find Him there these storms lose their strength and soon die. And our soul finds a strength we did not even realize existed. It’s at these times we began to understand the beauty of our Heavenly Father, His Son, and the Holy Spirit. 

 

He is our rock, our anchor, our Savior. Find Rest in Him when you face any storm life may throw your way. Get anchored and Feel Him in your soul….  

 

Its Him, It's always Him.


And behold, there arose a great storm on the sea, so that the boat was being covered with the waves; but Jesus Himself was asleep. Matthew 8:24

Lonely



“As delicate as a flower, as tender as rose petals, choosing to be tender and kind in a harsh environment is not weakness, it's courage.” ― Luffina Lourduraj

 

Lonely being without company: cut off from others: solitary

 

Loneliness is mentioned 6 times. However, alone is written about in the Bible over 300 instances.  

 

It is in our nature to crave that feeling of belonging. To feel that we are a part of something bigger than just ourselves. 

 

Lonely can manifest itself in many ways... Our family our friends or lack thereof can cause this void feeling in our souls. This can happen at any given time in our lives. 

 

Many life trials or experiences can leave us with our hearts feeling lonely... and searching for answers. It truly is a strange phenomenon to me how we can live a full life and still feel a lonely pull on our soul.  

 

I do believe if we have had a Divine spiritual experience we can find ourselves set apart.  Very few will truly understand. Many will not want to talk to you about the Divine presence that has caused such a depth of love in your soul. It becomes the norm to be preoccupied with chasing this amazing spiritual presence. 


He leaves you with a burning desire to share your heart with others.  But many will not relate nor will they understand. And as this walk with the Trinity continues.  You are viewed as overzealous.. over-excited or just a plain ole Jesus lover.  So many will avoid you, adding to the feeling of isolation.  


I question why is it ok to be zealous when speaking of sports, bands, movie stars, etc... But it’s not ok to speak with excitement about God, Jesus, or the Holy Spirit?? My question would be what makes you excited? And did they ever have a hand breathing life into your very existence? Is our excitement misdirected?  

 

I do find that as we move closer and closer to the Trinity the divide between our spiritual heart and society widens. But as this gap widens, we can find solace in resting in Their presence. We will find that Jesus has known this loneliness. Many shunned Him in this same way. So He comes to us fully knowing the heartbreak and the void we feel..  He offers us comfort and a love like no other. It's beyond human understanding. 

 

So whatever may cause you to feel that void or that loneliness in your soul.. Know you are never truly alone. He is with us always.. and forever!  Who else can make that commitment or promise? 


Only He can! So get excited! Get over zealous! And join souls that feel His love, it's a love that will leave you speechless. 

 

It’s Him, It’s always Him... 

 

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age. Matthew 28:20b, NIV

  

“As for me, I will see Your face in righteousness; I shall be satisfied when I awake in Your likeness. Psalm 17:15

 

“See, I have inscribed you on the palms of My hands.” Isaiah Isaiah 49:16
