This morning my heat hurts
for so many
that have been running
in another direction,
as if GOD doesn't EXIST.
It baffles me as to
why run from SOMEONE
who is
GOOD
and only wants
GOOD
for EVERYONE.
GOD wanted GOOD for Adam & Eve,
but they ran and hid in SHAME.
BUT GOD called them out of their hiding place,
not to harm them
but oh to save them,
to LOVE them.
BUT they stood in FEAR,
because they knew what they did was wrong,
yet questioned if
GOD IS REALLY LOVE.
BUT there was
GOD
who is
LOVE
and
GOOD,
yet they hid.
Our
GOD who WORKS ALL THINGS FOR THE GOOD OF THOSE WHO LOVE HIM
(Romans 8:28)
So maybe LOVING GOD is the issue.
LOVING GOD isn't perfect behavior.
LOVING GOD is being covered with
HIS PERFECT SON
who
FORGIVES the unforgivable.
For it is when you
take the stance of
HUMILITY,
TRUE LOVE
is found.
HUMILITY
admits your
REAL NEED
for a
REAL GOOD GOD
who went to great lengths
to LOVE ALL
with HIS LOVE.
What if EVERY ONE OF GOD'S CREATIONS
would stop for
a SECOND
and look up
to talk to
GOD
as a TRUSTED friend,
as a GOOD friend,
who would not only
LISTEN
to
their every HEART FELT word,
but who would
HEAR their every word
that HE takes to
HIS HEART
without
CONDEMNATION
or
JUDGEMENT
or
SHAMING,
as HE responds
with a
big
"THANK YOU for TALKING TO ME.
I LOVE YOU
now
LET ME LOVE YOU".
The invitation is sent.
LET ME.
And then there is another voice that responds to you~
“I am the resurrection and the life. The one who believes in ME will live, even though they die; and whoever lives by believing in ME will never die. Do you believe this?” (John 11: 25-26).
And then EVERYONE
realizes it is
JESUS
who is
INVITING
them.
JESUS shows up
to talk to them,
even after
they were
so
REAL
before GOD,
by pouring out
EVERYTHING
that was on their HEARTS. and even
their
questioning whether they
BELIEVED IN HIM.
And still
ALL ARE INVITED
to
BE LOVED FOREVER
the moment
THE INVITATION
"DO YOU BELIEVE?"
is answered with a
YES
"THIS I BELIEVE"
(listen to the song below)
The choice is yours, mine, and everyone else.
