Don't forget to show
hospitality to strangers, for some who have done
this have entertained angels.
Holy Bible -book of Hebrews-chapter
13-verse 2
"You
have touched my heart in a way you may never know.
One of the good things in life...knowing God
really does love me.
I
have a story to share.
God
spoke to me in September of 94 when my life felt
empty.
He came to me in a dream. It was dark, then the
presence of a light surrounded me. There
was an awareness of someone walking beside me,
yet I was unable to look upon it. This
presence showed me our feet. Mine were without
shoes, His were in sandals. Both of us walked
several paces before the realization of who it
was occured to me. I know, for the brief
moment we walked together, He said we were in
step.
The
overwhelming feeling of His love can not be
matched in this world.
What a glorious time we will have when we are
able to spend all eternity embraced in His most
abundant love.
I woke, sat straight up in bed and praised Him.
This is a true story, written between the pages
of my Bible.
It has been shared with many and now I share it
with you.
The spirit which dwells within, what a marvelous
being.
Thank you for developing these pages. We will
meet, if not in this world, surely in His.
God
Bless and Love you. ....Jo Anna"
I received the above
message as a guest book entry from someone I have
never met. As I read Jo Anna's testimony of God's
unconditional love for her, it was almost as if I
could hear the rush of Angels wings. I felt His
presence surround me so strongly that it was
almost physical.
He Touched Me.
Christ has been in my
life for a very long time, but at that moment , I
was filled with such joy that I could not help
but praise Him.
Jo Anna spoke of an 'empty'
life before she began her walk with Jesus. Many
of us feel that same emptiness and we try to fill
it with many things.....money, power, possesions,
alcohol, drugs, sex ...then more money, power
possesions,alcohol, drugs and sex. Yet the
feeling that something is missing in our life
remains.
Because
our sin has separated us from God, we have been
left with a "God-shaped vacuum" or
spiritual emptiness. It's a vacuum that can only
be filled with God's love.
YOU
need to know that GOD LOVES YOU... no
matter how undeserving you may feel of that love.
John 3:16 says "For God so loved the world
that He gave his only Son, so that everyone who
believes in him will not perish but have eternal
life."
Now THAT'S a whole
bunch of love!
I have four children
and five grandkids. Believe me...I know the
depths of the love a parent has for a child.
My oldest son is 40
years old. When he was 18 his drug addiction led
to armed robbery, which led him to the Oregon
State Penitentiary. He's been out for about eight
years now...but not free. There are worse prisons
than a jail cell, and his is heroin.
His is not the
lifestyle that a mother wishes for her child. But
I love him with all my heart, and as much as I
love God, if He told me, right this minute, that
I could save the world by allowing my boy to be
killed, I really don't think the world would
stand much of a chance at salvation.
Yet God loved his
children here on earth so much that he was
willing to allow Jesus to be ridiculed,
humiliated, tortured and finally to die nailed to
a cross as a sacrifice for OUR sins. MY SINS...YOUR
SINS. And the only thing we have to do to reap
the benefit of His great sacrifice is to believe
in Him. To believe that Jesus is the Son of God,
that he died so that we might be saved.
Doesn't seem like much
of a price for eternal life with God, does it?
John 14:27 says "I
am leaving you with a gift---peace of mind and
heart. And the peace I give isn't like the peace
the world gives. So don't be troubled or afraid."
I wish His peace for
you....
