We Are All On A Journey: Love, Wholeness, and Kingdom Living

 

We Are All On A… (1 Peter 1:17)

   And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges everyone according to their work, so that you can pass the time of your sojourning here in reverence.

"And if you call on the Father, who without respect of persons judges everyone according to their work, so that you can pass the time of your sojourning here in reverence:" – 1 Peter 1:17 (KSB)

   This passage reminds us that life is a sacred journey. We are temporary travelers -sojourners-passing through this world with purpose, accountability, and reverence. God, who judges impartially, calls us to live with intention and integrity as we navigate our spiritual path. Understanding this truth helps us move through life with clarity, purpose, and holy awareness.

   1. We Are All on a Love Journey

   Every person is journeying toward the realization that God is love, and that love is the essence of all existence. This journey invites us to embrace divine love in both the light and the shadows, our strengths and our struggles, our joys and our challenges. It is a lifelong practice of cultivating love in thoughts, words, and actions. We grow in compassion and forgiveness for ourselves, learning to see ourselves as God sees us. We also begin to recognize the divine image in every person around us, treating all as siblings in the human family. This journey shapes our mindset, elevates our behavior, and expands our capacity to live in love daily.

   2. We Are All on a Wholeness Path

   The goal of the soul is wholeness. God desires every part of us spirit, soul, and body to operate in harmony and alignment. This path is not about temporary healing or emotional relief; it is about restoration, integration, and completeness. The wholeness path calls us to forgive, seek support, embrace healing, and grow intentionally. Life’s challenges become teachers pointing us toward deeper maturity. Wholeness manifests as healthy relationships, soundness of mind, physical well-being, and spiritual vitality. It requires active participation as we lean into God’s desire to make us whole and flourishing in every area of life.

   3. We Are All on a Kingdom Voyage

   This voyage is a spiritual progression into the reality of God’s kingdom within us and through us. It moves us beyond religious routine into dynamic relationship, revelation, and transformation. The kingdom voyage is a life-long adventure of discovering deeper truths about God, about us, and about our purpose. It involves entering the kingdom, inheriting the kingdom, and manifesting the kingdom through character, service, love, and spiritual growth. This voyage pushes us away from complacency and into divine empowerment. Wherever we go, the kingdom becomes visible through how we live, love, and serve.

   Life is always moving spiritually, emotionally, and practically. Every thought, word, and action contributes to our progress on the love journey, the wholeness path, and the kingdom voyage. Challenges, lessons, and opportunities propel us forward. Nothing is wasted; there are no mistakes only learning moments that shape our development. Since this earth is not our final home, but a temporary place of sojourning, we commit ourselves to continual growth toward love, wholeness, and kingdom living.

   This teaching calls us to live intentionally, refusing stagnation and embracing movement. As we walk this journey, we reflect God’s impartial character and embody His transformative presence in every step of our spiritual voyage.

   We Are All On A: Love Journey. Wholeness Path. Kingdom Voyage.

Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement

  Refocus Your Faith: How to Overcome Distraction, Disappointment, and Discouragement "For in Christ Jesus neither circumcision nor uncircumcision has any value. The only thing that counts is faith expressing itself through love."   Galatians 5:6 (KSB)    With everything going on around us, it's easy to feel lost. Distractions come quickly, disappointments pile up, and discouragement sneaks in. We all face these moments. But even when we get off track, there is a way back and that path is through our faith, principles, and core values.  When you live your life anchored in principles, it gives you a compass for when the road gets unclear. Knowing your vision, your mission, and your core values makes it easier to realign when life feels out of control. But if you don’t know who you are, how can you get back to being your best self? If you don’t know what you stand on, what can you stand up on after a fall?    Clarity of purpose keeps you ...

Universe Means One Thing: Love

  Universe Means One Thing: Love "For all the law is fulfilled in this one word, love: Love your neighbor as yourself."   Galatians 5:14 (KSB)    Sometimes, the word “universe” can feel mysterious even spooky to some. Others think it's irreverent or sacrilegious when used in spiritual conversations. But what if we redefined it? What if “universe” simply meant love? What if it meant God, since God is love?  When we say, “the universe,” we can think of it as pointing to one word love. Just one word. The entire Bible, composed of 66 books and written by over 40 different authors, ultimately speaks to one central theme: love. From beginning to end, this divine book points us toward loving God, loving ourselves, and loving others.  In the Old Testament, God's people had 636 laws civil, ceremonial, and moral. They guided everything from relationships to religious festivals. But then Jesus came and said, “Let me make this simple Love God. Love yourself. L...

Hidden Treasure: You Are a Vessel, Not Just an Instrument

I AM Not an Instrument. I AM a Vessel “But we have this treasure in earthen vessels, that the excellency of the power may be of God, and not of us.” – 2 Corinthians 4:7 (KSB) Hidden in Plain Sight The image that Paul presents in 2 Corinthians 4 is that of a treasure hidden within an earthen vessel. In the Old Testament, people didn’t have locks, alarm systems, or cameras to protect their valuables. Instead, their belongings were often left exposed, making them vulnerable to thieves and robbers. To safeguard their most valuable treasures, they would hide them in jars of clay—earthen vessels—placing them in plain sight. A thief or robber would never think to look there because it wasn’t an obvious hiding place. Likewise, God has placed something valuable inside of you—a treasure of great worth. Yet, people often fail to see it. You may be right in front of them, but they don’t recognize your gifts, skills, talents, anointing, abilities, or sensitivities. You are hidden in plain sight bec...
