Just Do It

“Not at all! The word is very close to you. It is your mouth and in your heart, waiting for you to do it,”

Deuteronomy 30:14 (Common English Version)

The word is very close to you. This very definitive statement is found in scripture. We often search in many directions for the secret of God. When this statement was first written, Moses was speaking of the law which had been taught to the people of Israel for many years. But there are other sources of the word. God’s creation speaks of His majesty, and never forget, He created you and me in His image. That image is waiting to be born anew as we come to wrap our lives and hearts around His grace and love.

Jesus came that we have life, and have it more abundantly. Are we neglecting the abundance that we are offered? The children of Israel, who were led by Moses, had the law, yet we have so much more in the incarnation. In Jesus (God with us) there is an unlimited supply of grace and wisdom just waiting to be tapped. The NIKE slogan is “Just do it!”, and God wants you to do it! Trust Him, love Him, and serve Him with all you can muster.
