Goood Morninnnnnnnnng,
Sunday's service was so awesome. I sat next to the most amazing man. When I came up to the row to be seated, he made room for me & warmly greeted me. During the sermon he nodded, looking my way and acknowledged me on occasion. During prayer with the whole assembly, he held my hand softly & during worship I could see enthusiasm like a glow beyond any I have ever witnessed.
To the left of me sat a woman named Theresa & her Husband Wesley Earl, wonderful people. She also took the occasion to great me & share of herself. As the service progressed, I was mesmerized by the most touching sermon of my life. The implications of the skit/play they had the youth production perform was provoking, it healed things long ago forgotten. "I don't need to conform, to fit in, to strive or wander away" I just need to stay fixed, safe in the embrace of my JESUS. He who has never betrayed me, never hurt me, never pushed me away. Always pure, always real and ALWAYS AVAILABLE.
Here is a youtube version of that skit: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=cyheJ480LYA
I learned a wonderful lesson, perhaps one that has been a lifelong journey in the making. I am farther than I thought, closer than I think, "Into it fully" and it shows. I am on the enemies radar and He is running scared over me! I know it, I can tell and Jesus informed me as well! That's good, because; "Greater is He that is in me, than what used to be" After all, things do change; what's truly important is not that change occurs but rather WHO AND WHAT makes that change!
The sermon was fabulous, and it spoke so directly to my heart. I can convey it one simple sentence to you;" Be ready, be diligent, be patient, be about the Father's business, constantly!"..." We wait with trimmed lamps and we possess all we need to tarry as long as we always place our time and efforts in Him, where our resources are secured" MATTHEW 25:1-13 As I turned to leave, Theresa & her family said farewell. I walked out with that man, and He came with me on my Journey. His name is Jesus, He shared with me that He has been alongside of me all along! I bring Him with me everywhere I go and nothing will ever be the same!
The most important thing I can express is that He is here now and ready to accept you in...He will show you the way, walk in it, while you can. There will come a time when it is too late!
Abba Father, thank you for the gift of your presence, the sanctuary of your unending Love, the opportunities you provide to the entire world and how you hold each of us in the palm of your hand, singularly and completely. So intimate, so thorough, to the very marrow of bone...knowing the inner most parts, every fear, shortcoming and every thought. You see our potential, point the way, intercede on our behalf, stand close by, allow with a watchful eye, test from a vantage point of growth and propel your children onto the greatness of your designs in their purpose. Praise you Lord and May every life alive today come to know the greatness of thee. In Jesus Mighty and precious Name, Yehushua Hamashiak, Emmanuel, Lord of Lords and King of Kings! AMEN

MORE WONDERFUL VERSES TO ABSORB
For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by Him we cry, "Abba, Father." The Spirit Himself testifies with our spirit that we are God's children.(Romans 8:15-16)...God does not judge by external appearance... (Galatians 2:6)
"Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have summoned you by name; you are mine. When you pass through the waters, I will be with you...For I am the LORD, your God, the Holy One of Israel, your Savior." (Isaiah 43:1-3)"I, even I, am the LORD, and apart from me there is no savior." (Isaiah 43:11)
A man is not justified by observing the law, but by faith in Jesus Christ...(Galatians 2:16)
I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me. (Galatians 2:20)
This is what the LORD says-- He who made you, who formed you in the womb, and who will help you...(Isaiah 44:2)
For He chose us in Him before the creation of the world to be holy and blameless in His sight. In love He predestined us to be adopted as His sons through Jesus Christ, in accordance with His pleasure and will-- to the praise of His glorious grace, which He has freely given us in the One He loves. In Him we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, in accordance with the riches of God's grace that He lavished on us with all wisdom and understanding. (Ephesians 1:4-8)
And you also were included in Christ when you heard the word of truth, the gospel of your salvation. Having believed, you were marked in Him with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit, who is a deposit guaranteeing our inheritance until the redemption of those who are God's possession -- to the praise of His glory. (Ephesians 1:13-14)
