A Love Not Lost


No place can we hide that He won’t find us.

In the beginning, we were one with God, then sin tempted us and we succumbed to the lure of the evil one. We became a lost people, doomed! Still God loved us. He wanted us to be one with Him like it was before. He missed us so much and wanted to hold us once again like He used to. But since sin cannot exist with God we were doomed to our isolation from Him. Then, God, who loves us so much created a plan for our salvation; a way in which we could be forgiven and everything between us and Him would be forgotten. Once again, God would be able to hold us, express His deep love for us. We would be His children once again, and He would be our heavenly Father. So, He sent His only Son, Jesus to rescue us. God knew He would have to cause Jesus to be sacrificed for our sins, but it was the only way. He grieved His method, but we are that special to Him! YOU are that special to Him! Even if you were the only one He could have and to hold He would have done it just for you.

At times when we feel left behind, unloved or neglected we can believe without any doubt we are special. We can believe we are loved beyond all measure because our awesome God loves us, really loves us! “He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all -- how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things?” (Romans 8:32)

Do you need to be encouraged? You can be encouraged! Do you need to feel special? You are to Him! The apostle Paul said in (Romans 8:37-39) “Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.”

Be at peace my friend, you are not alone in your fears. You are a beloved child of the most high God. If you have feelings of separation, fear or doubt, now is your time to come close to your heavenly Father. This is your time to tell Him what is bothering you. He is waiting for you to tell Him what hurts. Go to Him.

Walk Of Faith

I wonder, do you think we miss God’s purpose for our lives because we are waiting to learn more of what God has planned for us? Truth is; God isn’t required to lay it all out for us. All He must do if He has a plan for our lives is to show us how and then enable us to do it. It seems when we don’t know all the particulars, life is too perplexing. We think, “ but I need to know just what God wants me to do.” Abram (later known as Abraham) probably had thoughts just like this. God asked Abram to go somewhere he wasn’t familiar with and he most likely thought of asking God, Lord, must I go somewhere I don’t know, can’t I just stay here in Haran? However, God’s plan for Abram was far greater than anything Abram could ever imagine. Our personal feelings, vision, and human reasoning will always get in the way of our walk of faith . God teaches us to have faith in Him by placing us in positions where our feelings, vision, and common knowledge don’t work for us. Haven’t you ex...

Over the past few years I have been inspired by the Holy Spirit to write what He has given me; many times I was awakened in the middle of the night to write them down. I hope you will take look at these brief messages which can be found in the "sidebar" of this blog under the heading of "BLOG ARCHIVE." There may be something in these that personally speaks to you. I pray there is. Thanks for reading my blog and may God richly bless you.

Get Out Of Your Boat

In (Matthew 14:25) Jesus had told the disciples to get into the boat and go on ahead of Him to the other side of the lake. The Bible says; He went up on a mountainside by Himself to pray. The wind was strong that night and the waves buffeted the small boat, tossing it to and fro. It would have been a frightening time to be out on the water; especially that late at night. The men in the boat trembled with fear, and when they saw Jesus walking out to them on the water they thought He was a ghost. Jesus assured them it was He and they should not be afraid. Peter, one of the disciples, said, “Lord, if it’s You, tell me to come to You on the water!” Jesus told him, “Come.” Peter stepped out of the boat, walked toward Jesus, but when he saw the wind; the Bible says, he was afraid, and beginning to sink, cried out, “Lord, save me!” Peter’s faith was strong, at first. He was walking on the top of the waves just as Jesus was, but the moment he allowed himself to think rationally instead of t...
