Soaring

2009-01-01T23:05:00.003-06:00

Hope you feel so loved by our Father and dear Savior. Isn't awesome when we are lifted up in pure sweetness of His presence? See His glorious creation.

Once I saw a hawk gliding over a field. Along with her was a young hawk gliding along with her. It was an awesome sight. It is nice to know that like that parent hawk going before to teach the young that our Precious Savior went before us to show us the way.

I know at times you don't feel like soaring, but as His child, He holds you up on His wings, and carries you.

Many years ago I was sitting our the porch. It was a very windy day with wind from the west. I noticed a small bird trying to take off in the wind. It would go out a ways, then the wind would be to strong and he would be blown back to the tree. I watched after he tired many times.

Then I heard a bird call in the tree when the little one was out a ways. The mother bird flew out from the tree with the young one following her. She went straight north, then curved right into the wind and it caught them up and they went on their way.

It was like she was letting that young one see what wouldn't work. Teaching it a lesson. Then showing it what would work.

So many times in life our Father has to let us learn, grow, gain wisdom in life. Walk alone it seems. But we are told, "I will never leave or forsake you." He tells us that He has to know our heart. Also that in every thing, He can use it to teach us, and bring good from it for us.

Father, "Who am I?"

2009-01-01T11:46:00.002-06:00

I kept asking our Heavenly Father, "I want to know who I am in you, and your Son, and you in me."
Then I started to notice the words, "Us, we, you, your, them, whomever, whosoever, they etc.."

If you can find you a NT Bible that isn't expensive, and dedicate it to this purpose.
These are all hinging on the Messiah being your Savior.

I started circle any of those words that I could take for me personally.
I looked carefully for promises, and put P beside the verses.
Warnings to me I put W.
If there was a promise with a condition added to it, I put C beside the verse."
Many times we find an IF, that something great hinges on. Circle the if.

You will meet yourself as the child of the Fat her, what He thinks of you. What He has for you.
Conditions He has for you. Warnings to you as His child. You will find you are are awesomely
created with an awesome destination if you. Find those ifs for they are great treasures.

You would be surprised to list all the verses on a note book that is directly to you concerning your life, who you are in the Father and His Son.

Compassion

2008-12-28T18:17:00.003-06:00

Over the past few weeks I had been thinking about compassion. Praying for a Ministry of compassion. Praying that the brethren would have compassion.

As I sat one morning talking to our Father about it, I started telling Him that compassion when it was summed up was forgiving others when they wronged us, was being patient with them, was kind to them, and so forth and that it really added up to love.

I have for a long long time been praying that our Father would send harvesters for those coming into the truth, and seeking truth. That would He let them be so full of love for them. There was no one if we did tell others of Him for them to then go to and be taught more perfectly until they came into the fullness of the Messiah.

I had been pouring out my heart for a place to go to services that His love was in the brethren and that they all loved each other as family because they needed to be loved, and wanted to love others. Then it dawned on me yesterday that was what I was wanting so much, a place to go to where love abounded, as well as His Spirit being allowed to minister through the ones that He had called and anointed to touch others.

Many of us are cut off from family, and need to be loved, and someone to love. We are made to love and be loved. I cry so many times in my heart for those that don't have anyone at all to be tender to them, and those that live alone.

Oh people, please remember that the NT is about love. How that just as He loved His dear only begotten Son He loves us if we love His Son. And His Son loves us like His Father loves Him. There is no greater love than this. I have prayed so hard that He would let His children feel His love, so they will know how deep it is, because in our mind we can't ever comprehend how awesome it is.

Love isn't just not doing wrong to your neighbor, it is a state of mind that from it flows goodness, and sweetness to others, even in our thoughts about them no matter what kind of personality they have, for we are seeing them as someone that our Father in heaven loves so much, He gave His Son to die for their sins, that if they believe in Him they can
have everlasting life.

How could you do it? He showed me.

So many times we do not realize what an impact a testimony can have onanother person. It might just have what that person needs them self atthat exact time. Something answered, encouragement, hope and so forth.

I have told a little bit about this, but most times I will not tell it all because it seems like it just is to personal, and also many times when I have even told a little bit of it, it is like the person has a blank face. It has no meaning to them, I guess because it was answering
a question I asked and the answer was for me. I am sure many times you have experienced this. Several years ago

I was praying and talking to our Savior about all that the brutal things that was done to Him. That He knew the pain, how horrible it would be for Him. I too had to realize that it was His choice in how He died. It all had a meaning for us. Yet for me a mortal it was so hard to understand. How He could be willing since the Father's fullness dwelt in Him, through Him the Father created all things, empty Himself of all that and become a servant, a servant that was going to be beaten, and slashed to where He would be marred more than any man for us. I kept thinking, you created us, you know the pain you would suffer!

One night I was praising our Father, and in my mind I was pretending I was standing before a light that was the Father, since it says He was light, a light that no man could look at. So I was praising Him deeply.

Then something happened.
It was in the spirit. I wasn't aware of anything except what was going on at that time.
I was a spirit being. I was dressed in a white robe. To me at the left I was aware of someone in the shadows. I looked down at my right arm and it was like a rod of light. Like the florescent bulbs we see. It was like I was made of pure love. It was just ra diating our of me. It felt like it was coming from me like you would look across the land on a very hot day and see the heat coming up off of the land. It was the most awesome love. No love on earth compared to it.

From my belly came music, and it vibrated my whole chest and stomach. It came up, and up, and up until it came out my mouth. The music just hung in letters to the right of my head. Seems like they were in gold, but I didn't know what they said. I remember thinking, "So this is how music talks, like the trumpet that spoke."

Then I looked to my right and saw me in flesh. I was kneeling, holding our my arms to a child about 8 years old. It was a boy. From my arms that same love just radiated out. It was over and I remembered what happened. I guess it may have been about three weeks that I felt that love. The most awesome, none earthly love I had ever experienced. I remember saying, "Now I understand He is pure love."

It was like the Savior showing me the love He had for mankind before He came, then that when He was in the flesh it didn't change, it was just the same. Greater than earthly love. That was why He could do what He did for us. Also we are told just as the Father loves Him, He loves us.

John 14:21 One who has my commandments, and keeps them, that person is one who loves me. One who loves me will be loved by my Father, and I will love him, and will reveal myself to him.”

KNOWING THE HEART

2008-12-28T17:08:00.003-06:00

We read, we study , we pray, and we go about our ways doing things we think are important, but how many times do we just stop, and love our Father and His Son? How often do we take time out to just praise them, and tell them how much we love them in a different way, than when we pray.

I have sit up to the wee hours of the morning reading, writing down verses and thoughts, that went through my mind. I would lay in bed at night before going to sleep, or when I woke up during the night, and it was hard to go to sleep or back to sleep because of talking and praising them.

Coming home to our Father and His Son, by spending more time than normal, is like telling them they are extra important in our lives. I hate the times of trying the heart, and one feels like they are standing all alone. The joy and deep down love I felt days before seems to have just fled from my life. I stand saying, " Father I love you, and even though right now I feel so alone I know you are there." Some times it is many weeks, but when it is over the most glorious sweetness flows though one. A spiritual lesson is learned, and new higher level of understanding something in our relationship with them is there.

Right now that is the place I am in, the one where you stand, and having stood, stand. It seems like when this time comes, all I can do is say I have no other place but with you Father, in you I live, and without you I die, so I will hang on. I know you hear me. I know you love me. Help me, that the adversary not tempt me and me listen to him.

I know my Father, His Son, all the angels in heaven, and the Holy Spirit are pulling for me. If I could see them I would see that they are right there ahead of me motioning me on toward victory. Through the Master I can do all things, I can stand when it seems like I am standing alone, because He loves me, and has proven it to me many times and in many ways. When it is over, the sweetness of victory, having not given up, the blessing is greater than all the weeks of feeling so alone. I was never alone, just my heart being tested, so He could know it.
