Knowing A Love
Recently, I got a chance to share Scripture and poetry as a testimony. Truly I was able to Glory in My God and my infirmities, As I did this In was able to acknowledge God's love for me. Truly God has blessed me by thinking about God's love and that Christ gave Himself for me. Now all I have to do is think about that love and know that love. Truly, this love is casting out my fears and anxieties. By applying Ephesians 3:14-20, I am finding a rest in the breadth and length and depth and height of His divine love. As the song says, "Think about His love, think about His mercy, think about His love that sees us through." I find this love by simply dwelling on Jesus. I have also been blessed as my faith is being tried and patience works itself in me.

Faith and Money
As an American we are naturally bent towards thinking money is the most important way for God to meet our needs and desires, We are truly blind to how God really wants to work in us. I myself struggle with this kind of covetousness. God clearly declares we can't love money and God both at the same time. I've discovered an answer to this focus on money. This is not a one time confession to solve this. This is a weed that must be cut down daily. It is so strong a sin that we can understand how it could be a root of sin. What is our answer? As we find ourselves thinking daily about money, we must remind ourselves where true worship should be. We must apply the command, "Thou shalt worship the Lord your God and Him only shalt thou serve." For with this weed daily confession is needed and redirection toward the Worship of God. As we apply this truth we shall discover that we shall know the Truth and the Truth will set us free.
