A Compassionate Father

I have a Father who calls me His own. He is a God of infinite kindness and compassion. When I am going through difficult times He sympathizes with my weakness and my concerns. When I am hurt, He comforts me.

My compassionate Father is never distant or removed from me. Because He loved me long before I was born, He came to live among my people so we could see how much He cares for us. He knew of my sins and that I just can’t help myself sometimes. So, not wanting me to be lost to sin, doomed to death, He sacrificed His own life on a terrible, tortuous tree, all for me.

Today I can go to my Father tell Him of my troubles and I will see His gentleness and be comforted. My Father Loves me and I know it without any doubt. I love my Father!

As a father has compassion on his children, so the Lord has compassion on those who fear Him (Psalm 103:13).

I will tell of the kindnesses of the Lord, the deeds for which He is to be praised, according to all the Lord has done for us – yes, the many good things he has done for the house of Israel, according to His compassion and many kindnesses (Isaiah 63:7).

“Though the mountains be shaken and the hills be removed, yet my unfailing love for you will not be shaken nor my covenant of peace be removed,” says the Lord, who has compassion for you (Isaiah 54:10).

Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed, for His compassions never fail (Lamentations 3:22).

Are you Fatherless? I will share mine with you. May I tell you more about His love?

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.

A Chosen People

“But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, a people belonging to God” (1 Peter 2:9). Like new born babies, craving pure spiritual milk, we hunger to grow more in our salvation, especially now that we have tasted that the Lord is good. Wouldn’t you agree? Once you have discovered that the Lord is good, and that you belong to Him, you want more, a lot more of Him! He who has chosen us has unleashed our desire to know more about Him and we develop this insatiable appetite to learn more about our King. So, as we come to Him, entering His gates, He who is the living stone – rejected by men but chosen by God and precious to Him – we also, like living stones, are being built into a spiritual house. We are His royal priesthood, offering spiritual sacrifices to Him through His blessed Son, Jesus Christ. This spiritual house with its chief cornerstone, who is our precious Jesus, will never be put to shame. As a chosen generation, we are to live our lives before the world...
