A reminder for
today
And thou shalt love the LORD thy God with all thine
heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy might. (Deuteronomy 6:5)
How was you weekend, my friend? I tried to do as little as
possible. Our church had a whole production of the resurrection of our Lord on
Friday and I must say it was very good. This weekend I watched two of my
favourite movies again. On Saturday we watched “The Shack” and yesterday we
watched “Ben-Hur” again. I love the theme of forgiveness that is the core of
Ben-Hur. It is so important that we live in forgiveness and show it to all
around us.
I have said it before that forgiveness is the only way we
will turn our country around and change how people think, feel and react. This weekend
we focussed on Jesus but do not let it stop there. Let the Lord be your focus
every day and love Him with all your heart and soul and strength each and every
moment of each day. Then love everyone around you.
If you can start this and it touched one and they do the
same, imagine what effect that will have on a city, a region, a country and finally
the world. The best way to destroy evil is with love. Evil can not survive
under love and with love we can do great things. It is simple: God is love and
when we love we show God. God is always with us so when we show Him through
love we will see miracles.
In the end it is all about God. He is the creator, but He
does not want slaves. He wants friends. People that truly loves Him. God is not
a dictator, He is a father. He is a loving father that allows you to make your
own choices and regardless your choice He still never leaves your side. He is
always there, and He will always be there. It is in this unconditional love
that we find the grace that saved us when He gave His life to take away our sin
and carry it with Him so that we will be free from that burden through Him.
There is no god like our God and He is the one true God. The
only living God. There is no other god that can save and the god of this world
in not interested to save. He is interested in destruction. We see this everywhere
he is in control. There is hate and anger and destruction that follows.
Our God is a God of love and peace. Remember that the fruit
of the Spirit is love, joy, peace, longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,
meekness, temperance.
Lord, we love you with all our hearts, souls and strength. You
are our God and our only God. In Jesus name.
Have an awesome day dear friend of Jesus.
Cheers
