LOVE

Grace and Peace to you all from our Lord Jesus Christ the Christmas Season.
Ron And I are thankful for this day the Lord has given us, we thank you for your continued Prayers, May the Lord Bless you all abundantly and fill you with the Riches of His Glory this Christmas Season Of our Lord Jesus Christ.
Ron and I continue to expect a Miracle knowing the Lords Will be done in all ways.
A lot of time to think and just ponder on some things the Lord has impressed upon my heart.
Love being the Most profound..............
Love is not "rude and self-seeking"... it is not easily angered..................Love keeps no record of wrongs............. these are some areas of my life I have had to repent in, I Believe the Lord is doing a great work here, and I boast in the Lord here because these are the greatest desires of my heart to be free from bondage's that breaks my fellowship with the Lord, and robs me of my peace in Him. A prayer that My Sister and I have Prayed over our lives,and our Husbands lives is that we come in to agreement in every area of our lives with the our Lord,when our lives are in alignment with the Word of God than we are living in agreement with God.
“Have mercy on me, O God, because of your unfailing love. Because of your great compassion, blot out the stain of my sins.”Psalms 51:1“Search me, O God, and know my heart; test me and know my anxious thoughts. Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.”Psalms 139:23-24
You know He is faithful to do just that.......Am I a Woman/Man/child /teenager after God's Heart? I know I want to be, I know I try to be, I know I fail miserably at times, but I know no matter my failures,Jesus is the same yesterday,Today and Forever,and I am accepted By my Father and Loved Just as I am,a sinner saved by Grace,with a sinful nature that daily desperately needs Jesus! not above another,not exempt from being like any other ......
God is no respecter of man.
For God does not show favoritism Romans 2:11
"... God shows no personal favoritism to no man ...." Galatians 2:6"For the Lord your God is God of gods and Lord of lords, the great God, mighty and awesome, who shows no partiality nor takes a bribe." Deuteronomy 10:17"And if you call on the Father, who without partiality judges according to each one's work ..1 Peter 1:17
His Word says The Glorious father may give you the Sprit of Wisdom and to know Him better - that every single one of us, with no exceptions, can be "treated equally and fairly" with the Lord in how He will handle our lives - but only if we are "willing to enter into this full surrender" with Him" He will be the One to control and lead our lives in the direction that He will want us to go in.
This is the first and greatest commandment:
And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.Duet 6:5--4:29----10;12----Matt 22:27-----Mark 12:30----Luke 10:27
"The second is like it, 'YOU SHALL LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR AS YOURSELF.' Matt 22:39
Leviticus 19:18 -----Gal 5:14
With a sincere love, not in word and tongue only, but inwardly in truth. With a strong love. He that is our All, must have our all,
I know my/our prayer is to have the "Presence of God with us",
But is the "power of God" working in and through us? Does our word and deed towards each other "the Believer and unbeliever" reflect the power of God, Demonstrating the Power of God by our actions and word?
I'll confess to you, these are struggles ,application of them is what I ask the Lord daily to renew in me.....An attitude that points people to Jesus..........Not away from Him................
"My Flesh" criticizes, manipulates, deceives, accuses, Judges, slanders, blames, Justifies, Excuses, and can be Prideful, I have a sinful Nature, I can make the decision to allow it to control my Thoughts, My actions, My Behavior, and any one of these things can be an Idol in my life ,..........."IF"......... it shapes the way I think, my behavior, my attitude! the way I communicate with others, act, re-act, you understand what I'm saying . Does anyone have these struggles?
I want to know what God looks like.... I look at Jesus.........."I want people to know what Jesus Looks like". ........That's supposed to be someone Like me! I ask for more of Him and Less of me.
Pauls says: I do not understand what I do. For what I want to do I do not do, but what I hate I do. Romans 7:15
Sin is no longer your master, for you no longer live under the requirements of the law. Instead, you live under the freedom of God's grace. Romans 6:14
"The Holy Spirit Convicts our hearts by the Word of God, this is very clear"
I have to wake up each Morning and surrender my whole day to the Lord and ask Him to have His way with Me, No matter what that looks like in my day,the Father will always have my best interest at heart,I know this.
I need to be more "God absorbed and less self adsorbed"
My Prayer to all of us who proclaim to know Jesus Christ as their Personal Savior and desire more of an Intimate relationship with Him is that It starts with Me/You, it's not our job to fix other people. Our Flesh does a great job of messing that up daily, the Power of the Holy Spirit convicts peoples hearts, I/we need more of the wonder working Power of the Blood Pouring out over and in and through us, we need the Out pouring of the Holy Spirit empowering us to walkVictory in Jesus. Believing in the "action of our Faith in Jesus Christ" reflecting His Love................God is the Gospel........ It's not enough to speak it ,I have to live it daily.
Paul said, "Therefore, brethren, we are debtors, not to the flesh, to live after the flesh. For if ye live after the flesh, ye shall die; but if ye, through the Spirit, do mortify the deeds of the body, ye shall live" (Rom. 8:12-13).
Blessed be the Name of the Lord.
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. "By this all men" will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” – John 13:34-35 Lord I lay down my life,and walk out my Salvation minute by minute, Holy Spirit come have your way with me/us..... Amen
This is a Comment I read from one of the Band members of Leeland:
I related to what He said and wanted to share this with you.
"And I'm lost in Your love and Your mercy. Lord Your beauty is so overwhelming. I'm thankful for Your truth. I'm so in love with You, my Jesus.
"Recently, I had one of those spiritual epiphanies and everything became clear in one moment. I was praying and suddenly my eyes were opened to something.
I realized that I had complicated things. I'd turned my relationship with God into process...a formula.
I knew God loved me, but for some reason I couldn't get free from the bondage of "productivity". I don't think I'm the only one who has struggled with this.
Don't get me wrong - we're supposed to be responsible and get things done in life, but that's not what I'm talking about.
We've brought this "productivity" thing into our relationship with God and we've completely missed the point of the Gospel.
We were created for one simple purpose, and that's to be "intimate with God".
To know Him and walk alongside Him with love this is the highest calling, the ONLY calling. Everything else flows from this. Do you want to win this world to Jesus?
Do you want to see your family situation turn around? How about those bills that are stacking up?
The solution to the world's problems and the answer to our needs will only come if you're intimate with God.
Show me someone that's giving everything in pursuit of the face of God, and I'll show you a world-changer.
Show me someone that's consumed with just "getting things done" for God, and I'll show you a frustrated & unfulfilled person.
Quote Charles Spurgeon:
When a man is anxious he cannot pray with faith; when he is troubled about the world, he cannot serve his Master,
his thoughts are serving himself.
If you would "seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness," all things would then be added unto you.You are meddling with Christ's business, and neglecting your own when you fret about your lot and circumstances.
You have been trying "providing" work and forgetting that it is yours to obey. Be wise and attend to the obeying, and let Christ manage the providing.
Come and survey your Father's storehouse.
Ron and I Love you and encourage and spur you on to live, focus, keep our eyes up on Jesus
may we simply fall more in love with Jesus. Really get lost in Him. I Believe when I/we begin to do this we will then see the "Power of God" working in and through us,
An unhumbled heart is like ground untilled, it is fallow ground; it is over-grown with thorns and weeds, lots a "stuff" corrupts our hearts. Lord create in us a clean heart,Hosea 10:12
I said, 'Plant the good seeds of righteousness, and you will harvest a crop of love. Plow up the hard ground of your hearts, for now is the time to seek the LORD, that he may come and shower righteousness upon you.'
I Love you Mom.............
