God is Calling
God is calling you. You sense a soft and peaceful sound. It is the Holy
Spirit leading you to new adventures. He knows your skills & abilities,
your heart's desires, He knows who you can be and where you need be to help
others. He is placing many things before you. Read those billboards, listen to
what special people have to say, read those articles, but most of all, continue
to pray. Please return His call.
God called and left a message for you. He said not to worry because He
started to work on a resolution the moment you placed the situation in His
hands. He wants you to know that He loves you and that everything will work out
for good. He said to listen and to obey His leading and to remain in His peace. He wants you to let go and allow Him to do His thing.
I just had coffee with Jesus. He assured me that my old ways are fading
away and that the new person I have become is gaining strength. He wants to
help me make wise decisions that will bring me closer to the Father and will
help me share His love with others.
Where is He? Jesus is always with you even when you are going through difficult times
that are caused by this imperfect world. He is there to protect you and to show
you the way out. Please stay focused on Him. You are more than a conqueror!
If you were the only person left on earth and Jesus had to die again to
save you, He would not hesitate. Show your love and appreciation by making
wiser decisions. Every wrong choice you make is another nail on His cross. All
He asks in return is for us to love God and love one another. If you only had one sin, He would still die for you.
Jesus has upgraded your vehicle with a new gas tank and a GPS. If you
use unacceptable gas, the engine will not run well. It must be filled with
premium gas to take you to glorious places. The new GPS will guide you on the
right road to your destination - God's Kingdom.
Imagine inviting your neighbor over to your house for a cup of coffee.
When he arrives, you have him sit down but you decide to ignore him the entire
time he’s there. We have invited Jesus into our heart. Do we ignore Him? The
One who has authority over all physical and spiritual things. The One who suffered and died
for us.
Jesus is with you even when
you make a wrong decision. He tries to warn you, guide you and protect
you but if you still decide to make the wrong choice, He helps you to turn
around and come back to His loving embrace. He forgives you and helps you to
see how this bad choice has hurt you. We don't deserve His love.
It is so difficult to see in the dark through this dense fog of random
thoughts. I will keep my soul focused on the soft light in the distance. I will
quiet my mind as the fog begins to clear and the light overtakes the darkness.
My spirit rejoices in my Father, my Savior, my Counselor.
Good News! the Kingdom of God is here now. Jesus paid the penalty for
our sins and restored our relationship with God. The last time God's Kingdom
was on Earth was the Garden of Eden. Let us all return to the Garden.
The Holy Spirit helps us in our weakness. We do not know what we ought
to pray for or how, but the Holy Spirit intercedes for us through wordless
groans. (Romans 8:26)
We coexist in two environments at the same time. We are 'physically' on
this earth AND, at the same time, we are 'spiritually' in heavenly places with
Jesus in God's presence. We need to practice 'translating' our awareness of
being with God until we realize that He is with us every moment of our lives.
We should 'not conform to the pattern of this world but be transformed by the
renewing of our mind'. The end result is living a full life as God intended.
I urge that petitions, prayers, intercession and thanksgiving be made
for all people ... for the president and all those in authority, that we may
live peaceful and quiet lives with godliness and holiness. 1Tim1
“God has not given us the spirit of fear; but of power, and of love, and
of a sound mind.” 1Timothy 1:7
I am a branch connected to the Vine of Jesus whose roots are part of
God Almighty who cares for us, prunes us and provides nourishment so that we
may bear good fruit and love each other. Without Jesus, we can do nothing.
(John 15)
"You have wrapped yourself with a 'veil' so that no prayer can pass
through."
(Lamentations 3:44)
"But whenever you turn to the Lord, the veil is taken away and with
an unveiled face you contemplate the Lord's glory, you are transformed into His
image with ever increasing glory, which comes from the Spirit of the Lord. (2Corinthians 3)
If we acknowledge our weaknesses and trust in the power of God then we
imitate Christ in a world obsessed with power. "When I am weak, then I am
strong." (2Corinthians 12:9)
There are many counterfeits to the Truth. Jesus is the Way, the Truth
and the Life. The Truth may not always be understandable, comfortable or
acceptable but the gift of Faith which is based on love, trust and hope will
help us to accept the Truth.
Everyday we go on a new journey with God that begins with Faith and ends
with the target of our unseen Hope. Hope is having total trust and confidence
in God, knowing where the road of Faith will end. Hope gives us the ability to
endure the hardships and difficulties along the way, to be patient and to never
give up.
Do not repay evil with evil or insult with insult. Repay evil with a
blessing, because I have called you to inherit my blessings. In order to live a
full life and see good days keep your tongue from evil and your lips from
deceit. Turn away from evil and do good; seek peace and pursue it. (1Peter 3:9)
Our Lord said He could not bless me with the favor I needed. Was it
because My Faith was weak, because I did not love Him or trust Him? No, He said
I had to forgive the person who had recently offended me. Once I forgave, the
favor I requested from my Lord came to pass. God is good.
God is present in your life. He is your hero who saves you. He rejoices
over you with joy, He renews you with his love and He celebrates over you with
shouts of joy. (Zephania 3:17)
I used to feel I needed to fix things in my life before I approached
Jesus. I finally realized He wants to love me, forgive me and help me just the
way I am. He died for us when we were sinners. There are no conditions to His
love. The only thing He wants from me is my sins, my love and to forgive
others. I am totally His and He wants to be the one to fix things for us.
God's love and forgiveness in Christ is NOT our permission to sin. It is
our motivation to stop sinning because Jesus suffers and dies for us every time we sin.
Stop driving nails into the cross of the one who loves you and let Him set you
free.
In one single day, 86,400 seconds go by. There is so much that happens during
those seconds in our bodies, in our brain, in our thoughts, in this world, in
this universe and in the spiritual realm. We need to take at least one of these seconds to say thank you to Our Father, Our Savior and Our Counselor.
