Dear Goldbug: Please accept what I am telling you about your statement.>>>>I now control this power that's beyond anyone's imagination<<<< I do not doubt you. I will repeat I do not doubt you. BUT. The greatest power you possess is the free will given you by God Almighty. You are in control of your own destiny.

As an heir of God through Christ, as an anointed believer I also have found a power that is so incredible; Christ himself said it was expedient for us that He go for One greater than He Shall come in His place. That power was the power of the Holy Spirit that was poured out on the day of Pentecost. The dimension that the Holy Spirit adds to prayer is the difference between a pop gun and an atomic bomb.

Consider the power of God in a seed. Archaeologists have taken seeds out of the Egyptian tombs and taken them out to plant them. Those same seeds sprang to life and were resistant to many of the diseases that modern day wheat is subject to.

Matthew 6:24 says that you cannot serve two masters you will love one and hate the other or vice versa.

So what I believe for you is that you are embarking, this day, on an incredible journey. I have planted a seed of God's love , compassion, mercy and grace in your heart. It is now beyond my control. If the seed has found fertile soil it will spring forth with a harvest of 30, 60, and 100 fold.

I will remember you for all eternity, and you will remember me for all eternity; I hope and pray that it will be remembrances of peace , and joy , and hope, and gentleness, and kindness, and meekness, and humility. In other words I hope that I have been what God has intended for me to be to you, and given you the message He himself would have given you. I hope and pray I have been worthy of the ambassadorship that God has called me to. In Christ.gregor

Dear Goldbug :

I happened not to be sleeping very well last night and I just happened to think that there was something the Lord wanted me to tell you. Forgive me if I've caught you at a busy time..

You can read prior posts here and you would find me saying it is not the 'sincerity of your belief' that counts in spiritual matters but the 'object of your faith'. To Christians that object is Christ the Lord.

It is like walking on ice to get to the other side of the lake. Do you live in a cold climate ? Doubting Thomas just as many Christians today have their doubts in the saving grace of Christ. So, when walking across the frozen lake there is only one thing that will save you; that being the thickness of the ice. You can have a little faith in the ice or a lot of faith, you can sing a song while crossing or you can fret, sweat, and worry yourself sick the whole way across. It doesn't matter. If the ice is thick enough you will cross safely, if not you fall through and drown a cold death.

There are Christains of both camps but as long as they are placing their faith, whether it be a lot of faith or only some faith in Jesus Christ the Lord of Lords and King of Kings they will get to the other side.

I may have my doubts at times about the thickness of the ice but I never waver about the man I know as Jesus. I know there are a million ponds out there that look safe to cross and all the ice looks the same thickness but Jesus has always brought me safely to the other side side. His ice is always strong enough.

I believe there is only one narrow pathway across the pond of eternity that will get you to the other side, and only Jesus knows that pathway across the ice; it is only in Christ that we will enjoy God's heaven , His riches, His streets of Gold, His foundations of precious stones, diamonds, rubys, sapphire, ; they will be as abundant as the gravel we use in concrete here on earth........

The hand of grace is extended to you, will you trust this Jesus to lead you across the ice this Christmas ??
