About Fruit of Change

This blog is borne out of desiring to share with others. I have given scripture booklets to friends, family, and whoever wants them. We are reading the booklets together for at least 30 days. I share in the blog what God gives me about the seeds we are planting. I believe that as we sow the Word and pray together, we are going to see transformation in our lives. The Word sown in our hearts will yield the fruit of change.

Joy to the Max -- Psalm 16:11


      You have made known to me the path of life;
      you will fill me with joy in your presence,
      with eternal pleasures at your right hand. Psalm 16:11 NIV

Wow! What a promise: joy in His presence. Not just joy, but filled with joy. "Filled" is joy in every nook and cranny. From the end of every strand of hair to the tip of every toe. Joy to the max! That promise is for "some day." And it comes with  a side of eternal pleasures. This will happen when our lives on this planet are over.

But what about today? Try it and see if it can happen here and now. Get in His presence today and see what happens. We can enter God's presence on earth when we pray in Jesus' name. If we quiet ourselves and pray something like, "God I want to be in Your presence now. Please show me what it's like to know You are with me." Then let Him take it from there.

I pray that you will know what it is like to be in God's presence. I pray that you will prepare your heart so that you can know Him. I pray that you and I will have first-hand experience with Psalm 16:11
