We can’t love God without knowing Him. Just like we can’t love someone we don’t know. It’s not possible. Knowing God takes time and effort, a lot of focused effort. Whatever we want from God we must seek Him with all of our heart. This isn’t a half-hearted attempt. No, it takes a constant focused pursuit of Him even while doing life. Loving God is a response to His loving us. With people, it is a choice, but with God…
What could be the best news ever for you? Could it be that you are really loved? We’ve all experienced love of one kind or another at various times in our lives. Maybe our parents loved us, or not. Sibling love, grandparent love, grandchildren love, or love of friends. They can love us the best they can, but they don’t know us, really. The deep hidden person inside. Their love is a human love, limited love. But Jesus, God, loves…
Some time ago God showed me the reason we fear and go astray is that we forget that God loves us or that we don’t know He loves us. And last night I listened to a preacher say that we go astray when we forget God loves us. Same thought. I think that is the main reason for the problems believers have. If we really believed that God truly loves us then there would be no worries. There would be…
O God, You are incomprehensible. You completely envelop our earth, our solar system and our galaxy. You contain all the universe and You extend infinitely in all directions. We are in You. Oh, if only we could grasp such a thought. All is Your kingdom and You rule Your kingdom with righteousness with an underlying motive of love. If only we could grasp that truth. We would not fear or worry. We would gladly surrender our will, our throne to…
Last time I shared a little about knowing God loves you is a key to answered prayer. Today I would like to share how I found this to be true. August 2019 My oldest brother called with news that another brother had been in an accident and was not expected to live. I hadn’t seen that brother, Les, in 50 years, but I had been praying for his salvation for quite a while. I continued praying for him that God…
Valuable Have you ever lost something you considered very valuable, something precious to you? How did that make you feel? Did you know that is what happened to God? In the Garden of Eden, He lost His created beings to another. They were traitors. How did He feel? Did His lost people care that they were lost? Don’t know. But, He did. Before we came to Christ, did we care that we were lost? To the end of getting them…
The God’s Love is difficult to comprehend God’s love is beyond our comprehension. It is complete and far-reaching. We tend to limit our understanding of God’s love by what we know of human love. Let’s pray that God would enable us to see His great love for us. We all have a deep need for the Father’s love. I’ve shared a video on youtube called “Father’s Love Letter” and pray it blesses you. Believe Him, it will change your life. Maybe…
What does feet washing have to do with Christianity? Have you washed any feet lately? I mean other than your own or your children’s feet. What do I mean? Now, what about feet washing? John 13:1-17 Jesus washed His disciples’ feet. In their country, during that time people walked dusty roads in sandals or barefoot. Their feet got dirty. The polite thing to do when you had company was to offer to wash their feet. What was Jesus teaching them?…
