WHAT DO YOU NEED ?

I received a beautiful little painting of our Lord in the mail, to be used as a book marker or just a keepsake...I placed it with my other inspirational images, I have collected over the years...
in a pretty glass windowsill ...which has become my work area. Below the image of our Lord is the following quote, "And all things, whatsoever you shall ask in prayer, believing, you shall receive". St. Matthew 21:22

Our Lord today is saying the same thing to us...Come to me, ask and I will help you...I will give it to you...whatever you need. If you Believe, you shall receive... The message has not changed. It may be 2000 years later, but God today still speaks to his children, US, in many ways. HE HAS NOT CHANGED.

We just have to have Faith and Believe. On one hand, it may have been easier to have Faith in Jesus, if we walked with HIM during his time on earth. Then, if we were in the crowds, we could actually witness his Miracles...and perhaps then, we would have more Faith. Miracles are still happening today, but we all do not see the Hand of Jesus at work. Because we are not eye witnesses, it may be more of a challenge to Believe.

The others, way back then, had an advantage, they saw...and then they believed. They wrote down their stories, their experiences to document the events. Hence, the Gospels were born.

So our challenge today may be greater...but God knows that and will reward those that place their Trust in Him. HE will not let you feel like a fool or look like a fool. HE WILL COME THROUGH FOR YOU.

So we have to continue to Believe... Have Faith, Trust In Him for everything. HE knows what is going on...and HE can handle it all.

Don't go through life alone without Jesus...why, it doesn't make sense? HE IS GREAT AND LOVING,...HE CAN HELP YOU IN EVERYTHING...AND HE DOES NOT MIND. HE LIKES TO HELP US. HE WANTS US TO TAKE ADVANTAGE OF HIS LOVE, GENEROSITY AND KINDNESS...

I ALWAYS "DO IT", but I never forget to 'GIVE BACK".
I love Him.

Miracles happen each and every day...sometimes we just need to take time to see them

I had a miracle happen to me actually just a little while ago. I was on an Amtrak train from Chicago to Seattle and God came to me and asked me to head back and check on a couple of ladies who were real unsure about what it is they believed. I headed back to speak with them and, for one of them, really touched her and clarified her mind. I know it's a small thing but it's a way God worked in my life, and I will never cease being thankful for it.

I also, a few years back, had my life saved by the Lord in what would have been an 80 MPH drive over a cliff if the vehicle, an Acura Integra, something not capable of rolling at any speed it is capable of, corrected itself to straightness with a barrel roll and landed right-side up on it's wheels. At first I was scared, but a tremendous feeling of peace and communion with God came over me, and somehow it felt it didn't even matter anymore, that I would just pass forward and never have to worry or look back. What should have been my moment of greatest panic instead become my moment of greatest happiness and fulfillment. God works in every direction on a canvas of everything, and every image is a perfect work of art. All glory to his name.

To Jeremy Janson,
First, I am so happy that God spared your life that day in the car...and allowed you to love, help and inspire others here on earth. You are a GREAT ADVOCATE FOR GOD...and HE has many things for you to accomplish here on earth, before you join him in Heaven.
You have such Wisdom...and it is beautiful to hear how aware you are of God's presence in your life and the life of others.
Your gonna do great things for God! (You are doing them now, however I feel, in the future, even bigger)
Stay safe my friend...Jesus watches over you very closely.
HE loves you...
You are special!

To Khris,
My Mother always said..."With God, all things are possible"

Those words were instrumental in me finding Jesus...and knowing that my Mother was happy and safe in Heaven.
Hope, Possibilities and Love = Jesus
Thanks for visiting and your comments.

I think we all have a way of connecting with God. This is a nice blog and is your way of reaching out to others. When I got the call to help spread Spirit's word, it was with the guidance that I keep it simple and all inclusive. Jesus watches over all people, not just Christians. That's why my blog and book, The Spoken Words of Spirit, openly speaks of Spirit and not always Jesus. It is so that He can reach those who might not be sure of His existence.
You've been given the task of using Jesus' name directly. Keep up the positive work.
