My Dear Friends In Christ,
I sincerely hope this finds you well; and with the strength to get through all things well. Jesus tells us; and we can find it written in John 16:33, that He (Jesus) spoke these things to us that in Christ Jesus we might have peace, which means Jesus made Peace possible! Jesus continues by saying to us that in the world, we will have tribulation: but be of good cheer … Will you agree with Jesus and come into unity in Christ with me? … As I truly and completely believe you will agree with Jesus too, when He finishes up this statement about troubles with HOPE in Jesus! “But be of good cheer; I (Christ Jesus) have overcome the world.”
Can I share something about our coffee maker with you? … that to me, I believe the Lord is showing us that Jesus can paint a picture anywhere for us to see how much God loves us. And, with a message, God is not mad at you. Don’t give up before you get there!
Where is there? The Assurance of Peace & Blessed by the Sacrifice of Love for Love!
You see, when we 1st believe in Jesus, we are made to be God’s little children. What does this mean to you? Well, to me, if you will allow Jesus to talk through me, we believe! And, like little children need to learn, so must we all be trained in how to proceed in this love God gave us through and by Jesus. Love & Forgiveness is made possible through and by Jesus! And, love and forgiveness work hand in hand with God! And, we give because we are blessed with love and forgiveness to give by this same power of Love and Forgiveness; that is of God and by His Grace and through and by this great name, Jesus who is the Christ.
You may not even be aware of what God already knows that you may have some unforgiveness in your heart. But God will help you; and keep you from stumbling! He Promises! And, I testify for the glory of our Saviour! The Bible says to work out your own Salvation … Now that Salvation has come! Believe and keep Believing! May all you do and say show to the world that you believe! May we see the Salvation of the Lord working in your situations!!!! Oh Thank you Jesus!!! The Power of God’s Holy Spirit Love in the Name of Jesus!
Well, we have a new coffee maker too! Coffee is possible, thru and by this new coffee maker, but goodness and mercy is required! Who knew all the impossible troubles we would both experience just by learning how to work this new coffee maker! We love coffee, so we keep on trying; but inevitably we have more and more to learn – – – about what NOT to do!
Friends, we love Jesus too; right? And, God’s love for us is so great and rich in Goodness and Mercy, but what happens when we face troubles we never saw coming … and even though we may very well know about making coffee; there is just something going on that we need to know about this NEW WAY! The same as with walking and abiding in the love God has for us! We must learn what God is wanting us so much to know about what is this love God calls us to … To be free in and to love others in, just as Jesus has so well loved us!
The other thing about this new coffee maker, it is our only way to make coffee … our only coffee maker in the house. Oh sure, we could go buy another coffee maker, but that would mess up this picture of Jesus is the ONLY Way; the ONLY TRUTH; and the ONLY LIFE! LIfe is with God; and we are called to first come & also to Abide in this love when we come to know and believe in the love God has for us! And, friends, when we see Jesus is our only Saviour in our heart, we will want to stick close to Jesus & exude God’s love too! God does this work in our heart too!
Isn’t God good!!!
Go there With Jesus
give a hug of love in Jesus Name
and ask for forgiveness
*** Proactive LOVE!
Will pride get in your way? Will time / busy schedules get in your way? Will hurt feelings get in your way? Is there anything you are not willing to sacrifice for the love of Jesus to do the will of God; and extend love and forgiveness to others God loves too? We are talking PURE here. There is absolutely Nothing impure about the love of Jesus! Will you give a hug of love in Jesus Name and ask for forgiveness and say, IF …EVEN IF I HAVE DONE ANYTHING TO HURT YOU, PLEASE FORGIVE ME??? (even IF you might feel & think you were entitled to an apology)? That’s your Soul (what you think, feel and want to) saved by Jesus to do God’s Will. We are talking about the power of the Holy Spirit in us when Jesus enters our heart! Dear Friends, this is it!!!!
If you are not willing? To LOOK at your own heart? – God is about to set you FREE from something you weren’t fully aware of! Forgiveness is in the Heart of God!!! Are you willing to entertain excuses? I hope not, because what ALL God has waiting for you, and the other person(s) surrounding you, is extraordinary and blessed FAR beyond human comprehension!
The fear of the Lord is the beginning of Wisdom; and the knowledge of the Holy IS UNDERSTANDING!
knowledge
of the Holy
IS UNDERSTANDING!
The Holy Spirit is impressing on my heart, as it is He who is writing to you that God doesn’t want you to give up! Just because it is difficult, Jesus wants you to focus on HIM!
There is a love that is perfect and HE IS GOD! We are imperfect, but God’s Perfect Love is the demonstration of how good God’s love is for us! His love for, with & in us is Patient and Kind; and flawless in reality! Yet, you may think, “what next?” Or, you may be tempted to give up? Or, perhaps you just feel pressure to do what you don’t want to do?
God gets that! But God is willing to help us! There is a higher place God is calling us to know about! This is the Place of God’s unconditional love!
This is the Place
of God’s unconditional love!
Now, I turned my back for a minute making coffee this morning! I seriously thought I had it figured out; as to how not to make any of the same mistakes we have been amazed with. And, I am not kidding when I say, we have both been tempted to toss this coffee maker to the curb, but there is something bigger God wants us to see than just this silly coffee maker.
something bigger God wants us to see than just this silly coffee maker.
It has been teaching us the power of patience with human error! The coffee maker remains the same! In fact, it is so simple, we have made it to be ridiculously complicated! Humm… am I painting this picture yet? That nothing is simple until understanding comes? Jesus loves us, but the knowledge of the Holy is understanding. And, ever still, we need to continue growing in our knowledge of God’s grand love for the world, and as we continue to be abiding in the Name of Jesus!
It has been teaching us the power of patience with human error!
Drink and never thirst again, but at the well is where we need to dwell!
So, as the coffee overflowed today, when I saw it, I thought what now? The Cup was full and moving the cup spilled over to burn my fingers; but just like God gives us a new method …. Why did the coffee overflow today? I couldn’t SEE what was already in the cup!
YUM! God’s Word is so Good to me! I couldn’t see what was already in the cup! SEE! God sees what is already in our heart! We can’t see it until God reveals it! Many times, it takes adversity to see …
Is this good for you? It sure is good to me! Thank you Jesus for this revelation.
So God has presented to the world A new method? LOVE in CHRIST. Just like I had to have this new coffee maker, we must first be born again to have the New Spirit of LIFE in Christ. And, sure, troubles will come, but it will be of a different kind & with a different method.
You see, God is showing me that we are meant to WIN! We are meant to win. The Bible even says to Press toward the Prize! And, so God has given us in Christ, A new method to love others well!!!
Oh friends, please get this!
When you receive this, you will never be the same!
Jesus makes Perfect Love Possible!
Forgiveness doesn’t work like we are taught by human standards!
Love covers a multitude of sins!
It is a MIRACLE! It is a Gift!
Don’t wait for someone to repent to show them love and understanding; because I am sure you can name at least one thing, God loved you well, before understanding come to you to Repent. Love covers a multitude of sins! It is a MIRACLE! It is a Gift! Ask Jesus to Unwrap your heart to Hear God; and use the gift of Love that God has implanted (or is willing to plant) in your heart to flow to others … JUST like Jesus flowed (or will flow) love into your heart from God. Love is from God.
Now, this final thing, I believe that the Lord wants me to tell you that you will perhaps just jump for joy in this deeper thing, God is doing in all our lives, because this is a brand new day! God is teaching us deeper still! We have only learned the basics of this love of Jesus! Now, we can learn how to walk and talk in this love God has for the world!
You, my friend, are (can be in Christ), the Light OF the love of God, whom Jesus resides in!
the Light OF the love of God
Okay, like this! Jesus was in the boat with them (Mark 4:36, KJV)! Jesus is in you & with you too! Glory be to God! Are you getting this from God right now as even I am as I am typing as fast as I can hear from God speak to us all!
God for you! God with you! God in You!
And when they had sent away the multitude, they took him even as he was in the ship. And there were also with him other little ships.
Mark 4:36, KJV
They took Jesus even as He was …. Are you tired? Exhausted? Jesus was! He had been teaching crowds all day. They took Jesus as He was; and Jesus slept on the boat because He was tired! Dear Friends, Jesus goes with you in your heart in this day; just as He was in that boat too in that day! Is Jesus resting in your heart? Are you tired like Jesus was? Then, Go there! Who is resting in you? J E S U S ! Call on Jesus and DO whatever Jesus tells you to do!
J E S U S !
Call on Jesus
and DO
whatever Jesus tells you to do!
Glory Hallelujah! Thank you Jesus for this Revelation! And, To God be the Glory.

Jesus peers before us, so He already knows … Faith in Christ is where all blessings from God are discovered! Follow Jesus and Trust in God. There is no fear in Love, but perfect love drives out fear. That’s why there is a calm that comes over you when you hear the Word of God preached. And that is why fear creeps in AT you when you hear the media preach. JESUS calms the storms and there is no mountain Satan can build high enough that faith IN CHRIST can’t tear down. Jesus is the name above all names.
FAITH PLEASES GOD.
IT IS IMPOSSIBLE PLEASE GOD WITHOUT FAITH.
BUT LET a man EXAMINE himself,
AND SO LET him eat OF THAT bread,
and drink OF THAT cup.

FOR THIS CAUSE many are weak and sickly among you, and many sleep.
