><>...Good morning mn, You are quite welcome...><> I do not at all mind sharing the love of God to any and all that ask, it it truly my pleasure. God our Farther is a loving, caring and protective Father, whose love for all of His children never ceases. He is the most caring of all parents. No matter how loving and caring we see ourselves in our relationship with our own children, we can never match or even come close to the love our heavly Father continues to pour on His own. It is clear from Genesis to Revelation exactly how much God truly loves us all. But most people today do not know or even attempt to understand the ways of God. He left us a letter from Him, filled with promises and love. He shows us the way to receive His blessings, and promises of a wonderfully filled with hope life. His love and grace are without condition. His love surrounds us constantly we are never without it. His grace came to us in the form of our Saviour Jesus the Christ, and it is available to all who will honestlty come to God. This grace is unmerited, we need do nothing to receive it, it is ours for the asking. This grace is what frees us from all bondage of sin, but we must ask to receive it, and we must confess our sins and when we do, we know that we have received the promise of eternal life. God is faithful and His promises are true. The more we read and search God out in His word, the more we understand the magnificant ways of our heavenly Father. He will reveal Himself to those who are truly seeking Him. A contrite heart is all He asks. Even in the course of our everyday life if we should happen to offend another person, isn't it the case that we ususally want to apologize and ask their forgiveness. So why should it be any different with our heavenly Father? For every sin we commit against our fellow human beings, we commit against God. Even more directly when we do not consider God at all, or use Him as a sounding board for our own bad choices in life which somtimes bring grief to us. This world is a sometimes cruel place to live but God is not the reason it is so.!. God is not a stone with no feelings, or just some mysterious force in the clouds, He is real, with real emotions, and it saddens Him to see what has become of man. But all anyone has to do is turn to Him and He will hear their sincere words and come into their life personally, and from that moment on He will be there for them for as long as they look to Him. Everyone of us should be thanking God everyday with every breath we take! Job is a blessed example. After satan began to destroy all that Job had, his own wife said: Job 2:9 9 Then said his wife unto him, Dost thou still retain thine integrity? curse God, and die. (KJV) And after Job listened to his three very ignorant friends,and in the face of having lost everything Job stayed true to God and said: Job 13:15 15 Though he slay me, yet will I trust in him: but I will maintain mine own ways before him. And God answered by : Job 42:10 10 And the LORD turned the captivity of Job, when he prayed for his friends: also the LORD gave Job twice as much as he had before. --------- --------- The events of Job are there for as an example for us to know the steadfastness and faithfulness of God when we keep our trust in Him and no other....especially the counsel of those who do not have faith in God. Remember how Job's troubles came about in the first place. Ps 42:8 8 Yet the LORD will command his lovingkindness in the daytime, and in the night his song shall be with me, and my prayer unto the God of my life. Have a good day mn Shalom...><>
