Blessings to you beloved of the Lord,
Do you still remember that 'golden oldie' some of us used to sing growing up - "Jesus loves me this I know - for the Bible tells me so; little ones to Him belongs, they are weak but He is strong..." Well this song dropped in my spirit as I was sitting meditating on this wonderful Love the Father has for us. It then reminded me once again just how God is so long on GRACE and short on religion.
So then dear bretheren, how about as 'fishers of men' (Matt 4:19) we bait the hook with that love of Jesus and of God's kingdom. As we catch them, God cleans them by His spirit. How about if me and you we live out this love; go tell about His love where ever we go. I truly believe that as we do this, He the God of love, will be there, He'll lead us there, where He's prepared.
Let us keep the Love of our Saviour with us in this 'our missionary journey' of witnessing about the Gospel of truth, then Heaven's gate God will open wide to welcome His little children in.
This I pray:
"Lord, I know there are people all around us needing to hear of Your Love, that message of Hope and truth _ people whom we might not even notice but whom You love deeply and wants to show Yourself merciful to thiem. Clothe us Lord with Your love as You reveal this marvelous love before the world and lead us Lord to them, equipping us with words to speak that are from You to them in the wisdom of Christ. I pray for men and women who need your word, that their hearts will be open to receive most of all from You the unfailing Love of the Saviour Jesus Christ. Amen"
[The Gaither Vocal Band has a song that sings 'If coal can turn to diamonds, and sand can turn to pearls, if a worm can turn into a butterfly, then LOVE can turn world.' Isn't that true of our Saviour's love!]
