That I may publish with the voice of thanksgiving... Psalm 26:7 Vol. 14, No. 8 August 2005 Dear Family of God: Learning something from God takes time, so it’s important we not give up on ourselves or others through the process. Every single Word of God will come to pass. Our responsibility is to reach out and grab it as it passes by. I’m talking about those times when we are confronted with a personal issue. Instead of shrugging it off until later, we should deal with it while the Holy Spirit is focusing on it. As we do, the results will come more quickly. For example, I have always wanted to know God’s Love, God’s way. Well, I keep pressing into His ways and guess what? His love is being revealed so wonderfully; I never knew this was possible. There is such a calm reality about what Jesus has done and is doing for us right now. He loves us so much He does not want anyone to perish from His Presence. But do you know how many people just don’t get it? They don’t get it because they have never experienced the real thing. God’s love and His Presence are worth more than gold or money or possessions and they are worth all the cost of finding them. They produce such a change in us that we wonder how we ever lived without understanding it. We are in a time of spiritual maturity that is bringing us to the fullness of that Love. With each spurt of growth, I realize that love is operating in a genuine and lasting way. Praise Him for the process of Calvary to the place of genuine Godly love. In Christ,
Pr. Steve Full Reflection Looking into the mirror, Whose image do I see? Your Word, O Lord, reflects perfectly.
My image slowly transforming; Some days, though remembering, I’m not the same. It’s You, O God, I praise! Your light shines forth More and more.
The reflection, some days, is not so clear. More intently into Your Word must I peer. I put on the new man Once again, Until one day, my hope is realized, That I am, yes, like Him, in the fullness of Christ -Linda Hief
