Come as You Are

Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

You don’t have to do anything special to qualify. Just come as you are, "Follow me, and I will make you fisher’s of men," (Mt. 4:18, Mk. 1:17). To follow is to listen for His voice and then to obey it, no matter how great or small. Then, it’s Jesus’ responsibility to dorepparttar rest (I Th. 5:24). It’s that simple. All He needs is a willing heart.

Color Me Love

Written by Joyce C. Lock


Continued from page 1

Sometimes, tuff love will be required. Perhaps, sacrificial love is what will meetrepparttar need. Holy love may be necessary. Sometimes we are to love as a parent, other times as a child. How do we know when our rightful place should be where? We can only know by listening for and following God, as He isrepparttar 122776 One that sees their heart. And always, above every other form of love, we have to stand for our love for Him.

"Ye are our epistle written in our hearts, known and read of all men: Forasmuch as ye are manifestly declared to berepparttar 122777 epistle of Christ ministered by us, written not with ink, but withrepparttar 122778 Spirit ofrepparttar 122779 living God; not in tables of stone, but in fleshy tables ofrepparttar 122780 heart."

II Co. 3:2-3

God is love and, however often He requests to live through us, let us give a right answer and say, "Color me love." © by Joyce C. Lock http://our.homewithgod.com/heavenlyinspirations/ This writing may be used in its entirety, with credits in tact, for non-profit ministering purposes.
