All stirred up!

Namesake Ministries "Ministry Scripture" is Hebrews 10:24 (NKJV) and it reads: And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works,

My heart for this Ministry is that what is shared stirs you up to love and good works. When you walk away are you stirred up? Are you spurred on?

A few interesting definitions for you:

  • Stirred ~ 1a to cause an especially slight movement or change of position of b : to disturb the quiet of : agitate — often used with up
  • Agitate ~ 3a : to discuss excitedly and earnestly b : to stir up public discussion of
  • Spur ~ 2 : to incite to action or accelerated growth or development : stimulate

I desire to inspire you to live out to the full what God has called you to be doing...some days I want to stir you to change your position to His position...if need be I would like to agitate you...and how about some stimulation!! Can I stimulate you to love God more? May I agitate you to love the lost more? How about stir you to change your position about how you view your children to how God views them?

Does the stirring up of love cause you to be provoked to do some good works in His name? Or even to pass it on and stir someone else up? Go with me for a moment...in some recipes you need to keep stirring to get just the right consistency...that is true with our God. He wants us to be living out His will in our lives and will put people and situations in front of us to stir us up so that we fulfill it!! He will keep doing this till we are the right consistency!! Sometimes it feels like a little agitation, and others very stimulating...but it is all for our good and for His glory.

Praise Him today for His love and faithfulness to you...and check out the Message Version of this scripture!

Hebrews 10:22-25 (The Message) So let's do it—full of belief, confident that we're presentable inside and out. Let's keep a firm grip on the promises that keep us going. He always keeps his word. Let's see how inventive we can be in encouraging love and helping out, not avoiding worshiping together as some do but spurring each other on, especially as we see the big Day approaching.

Is there anyone you can stir up to love and good works today? Go and be blessed doing it. He loves you so much & so do I ~ Laurie Kay
