New


There are times that we find ourselves in new adventures in life. And though we may not understand it all at once, we need to relax in God and have him direct us. Think about how we were at our last venture? What happened then? Did Jesus leave us to rot on our own? Of course not he coaxed us by the Holy Spirit to guide us through spiritual truths. 

I remember James said count it all joy.

James 1:2-6 My brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers’ temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience. But let patience have her perfect work, that ye may be perfect and entire, wanting nothing. If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him. But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed. 

What could we do in our new level in God? So I began to ask my new son Jonathan and his answer was Thank God.  Wow! Why do we have to think of the greatest answer? Just think of one that is complementary to what we are seeking from Christ.   A simple answer is all we need just as one from a child who understands a simple question.  God doesn’t expect us to be scholars with several degrees to commune and talk with him out openly? His desires are to fellowship with him. Wow! God who created the whole entire earth just wants us to love him with all our hearts, mind, soul, praise him and fellowship with him that is amazing.  This is not like the demands we put on each other. Especially when it comes to our children, spouses, loved ones, friends etc… All God wants is love too. Have we ever noticed that? God wants our love so he can feel special just like we want to feel special.

Not only that he prescribed some methods for us to follow Him. Like using our faith to reach Him, being patient, learning how to wait and if we ever need anything to just ask him. James is the half brother of Jesus and we are half brothers’ and sisters’ to Christ. We can share in the wealth of Christ because we accepted Him and repented and did our first works over. 

What a blessing that is! 

Just to look at this for a moment to be adopted by Christ through his blood that washes us white as snow and now we’re re-born into a newness of life with our beloved brother – spiritual – in – law  Christ to whom God are all our Father.  Indeed this is the day for rejoicing and for joy is in the air today. Breathe it in and out and share the wonderful and glorious words of Christ with someone new for today the new is spreading all over and no moment should be wasted upon this second, hour and minute of this day. Praise God for He wants love as we want love. Share your love and new experiences with one another.

Bless the Kingdom of God with your Praises of Love towards God our Father and Thank Him for Him sending his son Jesus to be our beloved brother – spiritual – in – law. Amen!
