Welcome back,

Can I just share with you something wonderful? The best good news is The Good News! No matter where we are or how we feel. Whether we are rich or poor; in sickness or in health. The season is now.

The emotions pouring over me this week has been difficult. Two deaths in only three days of women I know belonged to Jesus on this earth. And, now are present with Him in heaven! No more pain or suffering...His peace surrounding them, beautifying them as they look into His eyes of Love.

Most of you are believers as you are following my journey here. You know the Who you belong to. You have exchanged all your sin and cares for fresh life in Christ the Only Son of God. Do you believe this?

There is a woman who has sat in the same place in our family cafe for all the years we have been open...she is here. In the beginning she wanted nothing from me but the food on her plate. But, I always wondered if she came back because the Holy Spirit drew her. I know my family are believers and serve her in that way. She isn't as the world sees, 'put together very well.' But, in the eyes of the Lord we are all the same until we give our lives to Him.

Today, I woke with so much pain I wanted to give in and take the drug, but knowing it would only be a bandage, I didn't. Instead, I put on the whole armor of God and surrounded myself with praise songs. See, God makes all our appointments and regardless of how we 'feel' we need to follow where He leads. Today, He led me to this lady, but this time I had Holy Spirit love for her and the courage to share the straight, simple Gospel of Jesus Christ. She saw Him in me, I know. Because I could feel His precious Love for her. 

What a gift to be able to step out of my comfort zone, as they say, and trust, believe God was moving. Yes, even through me. She knew I was in pain, so I knew she was too. Time for compassion to rule the responses! She left with tears in her eyes but a smile on her face. 

Incase I don't see her again, as we know life is fragile, I pray that the Holy Spirit will do His good work and her life will be redeemed by the blood of the Lamb of God. 

Lord Jesus, thank you for the awesome privilege to humbly but in total assurance of Your lovingkindness, be an instrument in Your hands today. And, even the pain I was kept up all night with has lessened greatly! Praise be to Your matchless name, Jesus. Amen.

Be blessed and tell someone. Don't assume you know the condition of their heart. They may sit next to you in church Sunday after Sunday and never know intimately the Love of God for them. They may be the quiet, disabled, alone ones that cross your path everyday. Seek the Lord and He will show you the time is now, my friends, to share the Gospel of Life! God go with you, and may you ever be mindful of the brief times we are living in. He loves you so much!

Abundance is...to speak of His Love
