I’ve been redeemed. Like a coupon.

I’ve been redeemed.  Like a coupon.

Think about it.

You take a piece of paper with an image of an item imprinted on it to a store.  You hand in the coupon.  You receive the real deal.

The company won’t give you back the coupon.  They will take it and shred it.  You don’t go back to merely having an image.  That coupon is gone, destroyed, demolished, shredded, forgotten ...so why keep trying to get it back?

Let it go.  Enjoy your redeemed Life brand spirit we all share as one in God and He in us.  When the old mind says “You should be ashamed,” respond, “I am redeemed, new, whole, replaced, clean, forgiven.  I will not be ashamed.  I will be grateful.”

Jesus Pleading

I have sent for you.  I have called to you.  I have pleaded my case.  I have sought your love.  I have asked you to be One with Me in all that I am.  Will you accept Me as I Am?  Will you be My bride, eternally faithful, in love with Me, seeking only me for intimacy of Love and adorations?  Will you be My bride?  Will you attend our celebrations?  Will you take my Father to be your own?  Will you accept My family as your family?  Will you overlook their shortcomings for my sake and enjoy me in them?  Will you open your heart #and mind to My Spirit?  Are you willing to be knit together as One?

Why are you so afraid?  Do you not yet know who I am?

Merry Christmas!

The Least of These

Widows and orphans, outcasts, undesirable ones... at the time when Jesus spoke of:
"The least of these"

Poor, unrepaired home or homeless, hungry, begging or prostituting or scavenging, unprotected, no provider, inadequate clothing, sick, starving, dirty, tattered, smelly, outcast, "unclean", shunned, abused, injured, unloved, afraid, thieves, jailed, slaves, servants, worst of jobs, lacking education, lacking animals for sacrifice, unwelcome in synagogue.

"The least of these" are the faces/manifestations/presences of God.

Matthew 25:40 KJV
[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.



Matthew 25:34-45 KJV
[34] Then shall the King say unto them on his right hand, Come, ye blessed of my Father, inherit the kingdom prepared for you from the foundation of the world: [35] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me drink: I was a stranger, and ye took me in: [36] Naked, and ye clothed me: I was sick, and ye visited me: I was in prison, and ye came unto me.

[37] Then shall the righteous answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, and fed thee? or thirsty, and gave thee drink? [38] When saw we thee a stranger, and took thee in? or naked, and clothed thee ? [39] Or when saw we thee sick, or in prison, and came unto thee?

[40] And the King shall answer and say unto them, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye have done it unto one of the least of these my brethren, ye have done it unto me.

[41] Then shall he say also unto them on the left hand, Depart from me, ye cursed, into everlasting fire, prepared for the devil and his angels: [42] For I was an hungred, and ye gave me no meat: I was thirsty, and ye gave me no drink: [43] I was a stranger, and ye took me not in: naked, and ye clothed me not: sick, and in prison, and ye visited me not.

[44] Then shall they also answer him, saying, Lord, when saw we thee an hungred, or athirst, or a stranger, or naked, or sick, or in prison, and did not minister unto thee?

[45] Then shall he answer them, saying, Verily I say unto you, Inasmuch as ye did it not to one of the least of these, ye did it not to me

Don't Stop At Words

Words washed in the blood of Jesus Are Jesus.  He alone is the Word of life.  You are not asking for a thing but a person of the godhead, God.  When you seek the words of life, you seek He who is Life.  Don't stop at words.  Ideas and concepts and precepts and laws and understandings are no substitute for an intimate relationship with Me.  I am the Word.  I am Life.  I am Love.  I am Laughter.  I Am.  Seek these things and you shall receive a measure of joy; seek Me and receive Joy without measure, poured in and flowing out without ceasing, continuously flowing in an eternal lifetime.  

Is there a measure for My love for you?  How will you measure my love?  Will you pour it into a cup.?  You cannot.  It overflows.  This is what I am to you.  If you know the words but not the heart of the One they present to you, you have nothing.  Receive Me.  I am in you to be known.  I would be received, revered, hallowed, enjoyed.  I would be your Lover, Your Love, your intimate friend, the fellowship you long for.  I am already here.  I do not need to come... My people cry "come, Lord Jesus" when I am already here, but they allow fear to keep their minds closed to me.  We are One, made so by the blood of My sufferings and the triumph of My resurrection.  We are made ONE FLESH AND ONE SOUL COMMON.  Oh My people, return unto Me!

Remember Today for the Children, Introduction

...He came to me in the night hours in a dream after I had called out to Him for help.  I knew that I needed God in my life but I didn't know how to find Him.  I didn't have any Christian friends.  My family and friends had mostly departed from me because of circumstances in my life which had rendered me useless to them and to myself:  I had reached the point where I was crying out to God for help.

I would wander around my house saying "God have mercy on me, God have mercy on me.  I don't know where you are, God.  I don't know if You’re here or on a distant planet.  I just know that there’s an empty place in my heart that needs filling.  There’s an ache in my heart that I find unbearable.  There’s no joy in me, no life in me.  I’m filled with sadness and sorrow and I have no hope.  I know, God, that I need you.  Please help me, a sinner.  I don’t know if You have anything to do with love, but if you do I want to know You.”...

I Love My Mom

https://lamansellswaytaylor.files.wordpress.com/2016/10/img_4692.jpg


I love my mom. Got a call to go to the hospital because she had been in a car accident. Rolled twice down a deep ditch. When I got there she was in the x-ray Dept so I had to wait. Finally, she comes rolling down the hall on her stretcher with the smile of an angel on her face. Face aglow, she says, “I told them all Jesus helped me”. Three broken ribs and a blood smear down her cheek and she is glowing with the most beautiful smile because she was able to share her Jesus.
