Working on our Relationship with the Father; and By Grace Sharing the Gifts He Gives along the way.  By Karen Rowe April 29, 2016

Good day to you.  I hope your day is filled with peace and joy; and knowledge of unconditional love.  Every person needs to know that we are unconditionally loved, but not everyone has had that opportunity to get to know unconditional love.

The Spirit of the Lord put it on my mind to share this particular message with you today.  Each of us, as we are on our own path in this life, are in some form or another working out our relationship with the Father.

For some, it may be even avoiding a relationship Him, but God loves you anyway; and this is unconditional love that God has for you.  God desires a relationship with us, but we choose a relationship with Him.  A relationship does not mean that we are perfect.  A relationship means that we each have a part to participate in.  God is the Perfect and Holy One; that’s why God is God; and He is the Father, and we are the child. Yet, God gives us assignments to share with each other, even as we are growing in our journey! The only requirement is by the Holy Spirit.

We choose life through believing God’s Testimony about His Son, which is Jesus Christ, whom is God’s gift to the world to believe.  We find our living hope by faith in Christ and God becomes our Father which art in Heaven through Jesus Christ, our Lord.

God’s Relationship with man is Christ!

1 Corinthians 12

3…and that no man can say that Jesus is the Lord, but by the Holy Ghost.

Now there are diversities of gifts, but the same Spirit.

And there are differences of administrations, but the same Lord.

And there are diversities of operations, but it is the same God which worketh all in all.

 

We can have this relationship with God through Jesus Christ.  Jesus is the Lord.  Our relationship with God does not mean that we coast through life in a perfect world.

A relationship begins when we know and believe in the love God has for us.  Yes, even when we make a mistake, God loves us.  It is for our good benefit to be quick to repent of what God reveals to us that is wrong in His eyes; and it is also then we can find that we grow in our relationship with God.  Our trust deepens in God when we experience His unconditional love.  Our personal relationship with the Father matures as we continue to learn and gain more and more understanding as God sees us mature to handle the understanding the Holy Spirit brings to us who believe in our Savior, Jesus Christ the Lord.

Perhaps you can relate in some way?  I write for God’s glory a lot, but sometimes I slowdown in sharing what God helps me write, because the devil gets me to look down to focus too long that people may think I am thinking that I know things more than others.

Here is the target of today’s post!

We do know some things that some don’t know; as others know some things we don’t know; and together we learn the beauty in sharing our portions in the unity of Christ; and in the bond of peace as we grow in our relationships with the Father.

We can’t work out someone else’s relationship with God, but we are each responsible to work out our own relationship with God through Jesus Christ, our Lord.  Yet, because of Christin us, we can be a light of the knowledge of encouragement to each other; when two or three gather together in Jesus Name; God will be in the Midst and the Holy Spirit will minister nourishing knowledge to our soul!

Christ in us does know what to say, and do by the faith that is living in us! Christ in us can encourage and minister to others; but we know it is God who is doing the work.  We are to be patient and wait on the ministering to show up by God’s grace, but not delay … nor do we rush; we trust God and know His Peace and portion that He gives us to share.

This is relationship; that God never intended us to be independent Christians.

Quite the opposite, God called us to unite in Christ and encourage one another and be of the same mind of Christ toward one another.

Hebrews 3:13 KJV

But exhort one another daily, while it is called To day; lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin.

We are called by Grace; and according to our assignments by God to share the gifts that God gives us … (Confidence in Christ) (Growing in our Relationship with God); then:  “So that there would be no needy person among us, as together we worship the Lord Jesus Christ.

So we, being many, are one body in Christ, and every one members one of another.

Having then gifts differing according to the grace that is given to us, … (Romans 12)

Does this make a non-believer left out?

No, because of HOPE to believe!

The Bible says and the number of believers were added to them daily!  Because of the relationship with God (and thus each other) was attractive in the family of God.

Acts Chapter 2 “47 Praising God, and having favour with all the people. And the Lord added to the church daily such as should be saved.

So, this is about all the Spirit of the Lord put on my heart to say at this time.

We are working on growing in our relationship with the Father every day.  Yet, by grace, we are prepared in the Holy Ghost to share the portion God gives us with each today.

I share my portion as it pleases the Father and I am assured by His presence that I have accomplished His will.  As far as it depends on me (if possible) remain at peace with each other; and may the peace of the Lord be with you and also with me.

Now that I have done this assignment by faith, if the Lord allows, Coming Soon by Hope in Today Ministries:

Meet Karen: Hi, I am blessed, by God's good grace and because I know Jesus, I am blessed. I choose to be blessed, because I have a choice set before me and I refuse to look down. I trust God and I know and believe in the love God has for us. I have overcome difficulties; and I am blessed by the grace of God alone. If I have written about it, then I have felt the pain of it in some way, and to some degree. Did you know that Jesus has felt your pain? This is why I write. By God's grace I can identify; and tell you honestly, yes there is hope in anything and everything that you are facing today! Jesus is our Hope! He is the Truth, the Way and the Life. I am married a wonderful man, Robert Rowe; I love my husband and he loves me; and we have been married for 28 years. Together, we have been blessed with a wonderful daughter, named Amanda who is college now; and a wonderful son, named Daniel who is growing up well and soon to graduate elementary school. We work together and by God's grace we run our own business called PSI. We have a pastor over our ministry and over our business and also we depend on him for advise in our family. We have 2 dogs, 4 horses, 2 cats and love to spend time outdoors by the water and by campfires ... that is it seems when we can find time away from life's busy schedule. I love to write because it helps me learn more about God. And, I am driven by a passion from a love that God has put in my heart to share from my experiences and struggles, as I gain understanding in God’s Word to know how effective and powerful God is over our every situation! I share with you so you can know that you are not alone in your struggles. The same God who helps me and my family, is your help and shield as well! Life is not always easy, but it is possible –I like to share the difference that following Jesus makes in my life. And, I love to share God's patience and mercy and love that is with me! I am not perfect, but am experiencing God sanctify me through and through with every mistake I make; and yes, overcome in Christ! Life is not just about the successes; life on this earth is also about the troubles we overcome to discover what God has hidden in our faith to find! Troubles are more a challenge to grow in our faith ... It is not easy, but in the end the grace of God we discover is worth experiencing God in the midst. By Grace, I have discovered Jesus is Peace and He is my Joy and Wisdom from Heaven. God is our Provider and Healer and Creator, who is our help and shield over all things. By grace, I have experienced a nearness to God through my faith in His Son! We are well forgiven by God; and well blessed when we know and believe the love that God has for us. To say, "all is well with my soul" is a powerful knowledge to understand and experience. I sense God's desire for you to know His love for you and how deep His love for you is that He has SO loved you; God gave you His Son. God loves you right now just as you are! There is so much to learn! I believe that as we learn from God, we are God’s gift to each other. It is all God’s story –and for His glory; and God has SO loved us. I love to paint the vision that God has given me about a Father’s love –that God wants you to dream again and visualize His love for you! In God’s eyes, there’s more to life than we see; and in a world that sometimes misrepresents and misunderstands God and love; God wants you to have the courage to dream His dream and see His vision of a Father’s love for you! Many years ago, I prayed to God, “How can I tell a million people what I know about Your Son?” God showed me I had a gift of a ministry about God's Love; and He called it Hope in Today! I write to please God and I write to encourage you; and I write to spend quiet time with God. All because of this love that God has first shown me! I need Jesus –and my life is about my relationship with God. And, every blessing begins with Him! Love in Christ, Karen Rowe, Director Hope in Today Ministries, Inc.
