THE GREATEST LOVER!

-





I heard a sermon on Sunday and the pastor said that there are generations of people who feel rejected.  I kept thinking about this statement most of the day.

Maybe your parents never told you they loved you. They never had a kind word to say to you.  Some  young people have parents that are workaholics 
and never spend time with them. The parents think giving clothes and cell phones will make up for their absence.

Someone experienced molestation by a relative and no longer trust anyone. All of your relationships have ended badly.

Your spouse has abused you day and night for years. You have no self esteem because you have  endured years of verbal abuse.

You feel alone because your spouse refuses to spend quality time with you. Your  spouse's job and friends seem  more than you. 

You are a young person who has been bullied at school. The kids laugh at you. The teacher never defended you and never punished the bully.

I have good news for anybody who feels rejected today. The Lord loves you and welcomes you with open arms. This is not a trick or cliche message. 


JOHN 3:16  

16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.  


I challenge you to get in a quiet place alone today.  Tell the Lord you are tired of feeling  rejected and unloved. You are willing to open up your heart and trust Him. Don't worry about being good enough to ask for the Lord's help:


ROMANS  3:23
 
For all have sinned and fall short of the glory
of God.

Just be sincere and mean every word that you are saying. I promise you that your life will never be the same again.

You may not feel different at first, BE PATIENT! Any day now,  you will feel an overwhelming feeling of 
love come over you. You will have the best hug you
have ever gotten in you life. Cry if you feel the urge to. Sing, shout, and dance if you want! 

This euphoria is what true happiness and love feels like. It will not be long before you realize that HIS LOVE does not compare to the love you have gotten  from your parents or spouse. It surpasses it and it's indescribable. HIS LOVE will help you move on with your life and dismiss the negativity you have gotten  from others. Please imagine that you are wearing a bullet proof vest and  bullets of negative words are bouncing off you and falling into the sea.


Go ahead and bask in your new found salvation. You
will feel like telling everyone about your new life and
want to convert them too.  If someone happens to notice that you seem different, you can share what you feel comfortable with sharing.Of course, you are not ashamed of your salvation. You just may not be ready to have someone try to dampen your spirit.
I caution you not to try to convert everyone you see. 
I say this because, your spouse, friends and family may get angry. They may be  confused and refuse to believe that you have changed. 

Jesus was able to minister to strangers but the
people in this home town of Nazareth rejected 
His ministry.

LUKE 4:16, 28-30

16 So He came to Nazareth, where He had been brought up. And as His custom was,He went into
 the synagogue on the Sabbath day, and stood up to read.

28 So all those in the synagogue, when they heard these things, were filled with wrath,
29 and rose up and thrust Him out of the city; and they led Him to the brow of the hill on which their 
city was built, that they might throw Him down over the cliff.
30 Then passing through the midst of them, He went His way.


Please concentrate on the NEW YOU!  Continue to RENEW YOUR MIND. Read and study the Bible and keep the faith. My favorite online Bible is the Bible Gateway, New King James Version. Pray daily and
ask Him to help you in any area that you need His strength to prevail.

Your behavior and a loving spirit will be your new testimony. People will eventually see the truth. Do
not worry about when or how it will happen. Each person is responsible for his own salvation. 


MATTHEW  12:30 

He who is not with Me is against Me, and he who does not gather with Me scatters abroad.

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the

Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to use a harlot (prostitute)

ADAM & EVE'S FAMILY TREE

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore a man shall leave h
