If My people, which are called by My name, shall humble themselves, and pray, and seek My face, and turn from their wicked ways; then will I hear from heaven, and will forgive their sin, and will heal their land.

[2 Chronicles 7:14]

Good Morning Beloved,
 
Isn’t it amazing how suddenly ‘fall’ falls on us.  Yesterday it was broad daylight when I left the house, today darkness.  The changing seasons should serve as a gentle reminder to all of us that there are so many mysteries in life… so many things that are beyond our control.  The blessing is that He who holds the seasons in His Hands, holds us just as securely.  While the world is fighting over one thing or another, those who name the Name of Christ as their own should be praying, not adding to the confusion.  As long as there are human beings on this earth, until Jesus comes back, there is going to be conflict and struggle.  One group feeling slighted and striking out at the other.  So much division along racial, cultural, political and economic lines.  And, if that isn’t enough madness, I’ve seen stuff between light-skinned and dark-skinned black people.  Asian people dying their hair and having surgical procedures to widen their beautiful eyes to appear more European.  Perms to make ones’ hair “thick and luxurious” — perms to make ones’ hair “straight and manageable”.  The Internet is chock full of blond jokes, country jokes and “hot Ghetto mess” pictures and videos.  One should pause and ponder, who benefits from all of the ’isms’… the pain, senseless acts of violence and chaos? In the midst of all of the squabbling, the enemy of our soul is laughing at us.  The accuser of the brethren is doing what he does.  He constantly brings accusation to God against the children of God.  Pointing out our imperfections and sin in an effort to get God to give up on us, and release us into his evil hands.  In the sight of Heaven this must look pretty pitiful.  How strange it must appear to a Holy God who created the multi-colored wildflowers in the field.  He looks on His creation with all of its’ hues, textures, sizes and voices and He sees beauty.  His desire is for us to take on the same Spirit and nature of His Son, but in all other ways to be the one-of-a-kind Designers’ original He created us to be.  Any hostility we nurture toward anyone needs to be cast on the altar and dealt with.  It mars our beauty, dulls our spiritual hearing, holds us in bondage and grieves the heart of our Holy Daddy.  Remember what Jesus prayed for His followers:
And the Glory which You gave Me I have given them; that they may be one, even as We are One… [John 17:22]
 
I believe that prayer has reached down throughout the annulls of time to tap us on the shoulder and say, “you too My child“…

 

So we, being many, are one body in CHRIST, and every one members one of another [Romans 12:5]

For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is CHRIST.
[
1 Corinthians 12:12]

 


One family… different faces, different assignments, same goal… to see the Face of God smiling and saying,
 
“…Well done, you good and faithful servant: you have been faithful over a few things, I will make you ruler over many things: enter you into the joy of your LORD.”  [Matthew 25:21]


…. and that Beloved Family… is Good News!
 
U Blessed
Have A Fabulous Day… Walk in Victory… Remember your name
Regina
