ENJOYING PEACE IN HIS PRESENCE

I love you regardless of how well you are performing.
Sometimes you feel uneasy, wondering if you are doing enough to be worthy of My Love.
No matter how exemplary your behavior, the answer to that question will always be no.
Your performance and My Love are totally different issues, which you need to sort out.
I love you with an everlasting Love that flows out from eternity without limits or conditions.
I have clothed you in My robe of righteousness, and this is an eternal transaction:
Nothing and no one can reverse it.
Therefore, your accomplishment as a Christian has no bearing on My Love for you.
Even your ability to assess how well you are doing on a given day is flawed.
Your limited human perspective and the condition of your body, with its mercurial variations, distort your evaluation.

Bring your performance anxiety to Me, and receive in its place, My Unfailing Love. Try to stay conscious of My loving Presence with you in all that you do , and I will direct your steps.

Jeremiah 31:3; Isaiah 61:10; Psalm 31:16; Psalm 107:8

A fruitful and rewarding to you!
Love you all!

Don't Understand - Trust God

 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.” Proverbs 3:5-6 (NIV)

You may be facing a dead end right now—financial, emotional and relational—but if you will trust God and keep on moving in faith, even when you don’t see a way, he will make a way.

It will become more understandable as you head down the path he sets before you, but understanding is not a requirement for you to start down the path.

Proverbs 4:18 says, “The path of the righteous is like the first gleam of dawn, shining brighter till the full light of day.” (NIV)

One day you will stand in the full light of eternity and view the big picture. You’ll see God’s purpose behind the path he specifically chose for you. 

In the meantime, do what Proverbs 3 tells us to do: “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways acknowledge him, and he will make your paths straight.”
Be patient. God knows what He’s doing. God knows what is best for you. He can see the end result. You can’t. All those problems, heartaches, difficulties and delays -- all the things that make you ask “why” -- one day it will all be clear in the light of God’s love.
But for now, we’re learning to trust God.
