There is nothing I most likely wouldn't do if I could keep someone I loved from being hurt or in danger. Even seeing my children sick with colds I would often pray that it would be me going through the fight of getting well. Seeing my husband in pain from his injured back and needing several major surgeries I prayed that it had been me and not him in all that pain. It's not because I didn't want to care for them, but rather I didn't want them to have to suffer. I know that is what God our Father feels for each of us. He sees, know and feels our pain and anguish as we struggle daily to get through. To find the path back to our heavenly home. But unlike myself, my Father took care of that! He sent Jesus, my Lord, to open the path back to Him. He made sure the cost and sickness of this world was paid in full and restored my connection. Yes, I still have deep valleys to travel and some very high mountains to climb but I can trust that He is with me all the way. And if I happen to miss the mark, which is like always, I have His word that my ransom from my situation is paid in full. Remember, God is the promise maker! God is the promise keeper! He, and He alone, gives us freely this much love! His plans are perfect for each of us! #nosmallfaith #kyeoj #TheJesusMovement @gee43 @gee543

Acceptance
We all have the inherent desire to feel needed, wanted, belonging, accepted, understood, valued, a part of "community." Often to the point of loosing any resemblance of who we are and were meant to be. Willing to do almost anything to fill the void in our hearts and souls just too feel we are accepted by "our peers."it's hard to choose to "buck the system." But if I claim to be trying to follow the teachings of a Jewish Carpenter, who not only "bucked the system," but defeated and destroyed it, then why am I giving it so much control over my life. Yes, of course, I do care how the world sees and accepts me! I still want and need to feel love and being a part of community, but I have found it far more important to desire how God sees me and accepts me then the world He has defeated. Remember, God is the promise maker! God is the promise keeper! For if I gain the world and loose my soul I ave not won anything. Trust God, His way is perfect! #nosmallfaith #kyeoj #TheJesusMovement @gee43 @gee543

Light
Walk as a child of the LIGHT! Be the LIGHT of HOPE in a dark world. Bring the LIGHT of LOVE to all you encounter daily! For if you have made Jesus Christ your LORD, you no longer have the darkness of hopelessness with in you. Even one ray of LIGHT casts our darkness. Remember, God is the promise maker! God is the promise keeper! His plans are perfect! #nosmallfaith #kyeoj #TheJesusMovement @gee43 @gee543
