Did you listen carefully?

Beloved–

Those who live in the shelter of the Most High will find rest in the shadow of the Almighty.  This I declare about the Lord: He alone is my refuge, my place of safety; he is my God, and I trust him.  For he will rescue you from every trap and protect you from deadly disease.  He will cover you with his feathers.  He will shelter you with his wings.  His faithful promises are your armor and protection.  (from Psalms)

When I understood that the Lord God Almighty was triune—Father, Son, my savior, and Holy Spirit, my constant companion—that he had made a plan for my life from the beginning of time. If I got with the program I could have peace of heart and mind no matter the chaos that might surround me.  I pray for you to seek to abide in his shadow of his protection by listening very carefully for his voice.  Praise be to our triune God!

Luv Ya

Listen, carefully

Beloved–

People may be right in their own eyes, but the Lord examines their heart.  The Lord is more pleased when we do what is right and just than when we offer him sacrifices.  (from Proverbs)

At the end of my own devices I called out to God to save me; not with a humble heart, helpless surely, but not with humility.  Then I learned that being really good or really bad there was just no way I could free myself; only Jesus’ blood shed on Calvary’s cross could pay my debt of sin and shame.  I pray for you to know that our strength is in humility and the blood, not in our pride. Praise the Lord God Almighty who is … Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Luv Ya!

IWOT!

Beloved–

Then God said, “Let us make human beings in our image, to be like us … So God created human beings in his own image.  In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them … So God created human beings in his own image.  In the image of God he created them; male and female he created them.  (from Genesis)

I don’t look like my mother or father; which, as a child, concerned me for a long time. Then I saw a picture of my great grandfather and I recognized myself immediately.  Understanding the science of DNA and the WORD of God I know why I have a perishable body but an immortal soul. I pray for you to recognize where your DNA started. Praise the Lord God Almighty who is … Father, Son and Holy Spirit!

Luv Ya

EASTER

Beloved–

 Instead, you must worship Christ as Lord of your life. And if someone asks about your hope as a believer, always be ready to explain it. (from 1st Peter)

The reason for my joy on Easter Morn is because of the resurrection of my savior and his victory over sin and death.  The reason for my shame on Good Friday is that my sin nailed my Lord to the cross of Calvary. The reason for my awe and wonder on Christmas day is that Almighty God gave up his deity and power, even sacrificing human dignity, and stepped into history to save mankind.  The reason for it all from the beginning of time is that the triune God who spoke the universe into being and made mankind in his image, did it all because of his abundant mercy and grace of love.

“HE LIVES !   HE LIVES!   CHRIST JESUS LIVES TODAY … 

YOU ASK ME HOW I KNOW HE LIVES … HE LIVES WITHIN MY HEART!.  

Luv Ya!

It’s Good Friday

Beloved–

So Christ has now become the High Priest … With his own blood he entered the Most Holy Place … Just think how much more the blood of Christ will purify our consciences from sinful deeds so that we can worship the living God … For without the shedding of blood, there is no forgiveness. (from Hebrews)

Nothing but the blood of Jesus in my soul, Could my sins, like crimson, make white as snow. Nothing but the blood of Jesus, the precious blood of Jesus! (Mrs.C.H. Morris 1898)

The blood–it’s all about the blood.  I pray that you know the joy that it can bring to you.

Luv Ya!
