To be a part of God’s plan. To belong to the Lord Jesus. There is nothing that compares to this. In being His, it is a great desire to share His Presence, His beauty and His Love. Through the Holy Spirit of God, His Love is shed abroad in our hearts.   Truly, His own Presence. Nothing we have done or can do.  Tt is His presence seeping out of our pores, when we are squeezed and it is His life and Person and how He feels, Who He is.   His expression through us. Jesus Christ, Who gave His life for all, that all might come to Him and know His life.   For all that that I feel, is Him, and what He has given to us.  His own life for our covering.  His own love.  God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son that whosoever would believe in Him would not perish but have everlasting life. More than anything, it is having Jesus here, in our lives, and I know that everything is in His hands. And I know He desires for all to know His Love. I know He desires everything good for us, and I can run to Him as my shelter and fortress and Rock of my Salvation. He would that all be saved. That is His Love. He so loves.  His Love is a voice that is calling, and calling people home to Him, to come to Him, for safety.  Under the Shelter of the Most High.  It is not hard. He made the way. We just come. And trust Him, and believe in Him, and snuggle into Him, and trust Him, and learn of Him. He is our Shelter.   When something seems too hard for us, He will never leave us or forsake us and will help us through, in everything.

I have such a sense of Jesus’ Love tonight, and His aching and longing for all to know Him.  His engulfing desire to draw us to Him.  LOVE.   That is Who Jesus is.  Like a lighthouse, Love goes out, to draw the wayward home to safety. All of us, to Him.   Freely given, shining outward to all, to share.  We just ask Him to come in to our lives and He will. The Light of God surrounds me. It is His and He gives to us of His own, to give in His selfless giving. It is Jesus sitting with the people. Healing engulfing in His wings, He gathers His chicks under them, to cover and love and heal and make safe and protect. He gives life as a watered garden.

The True Son, the One Who cares for the sheep whose very presence heals their wounds and makes them whole.  Bruises and sores of life disappear.  The Balm of Gilead. That is Jesus. I find I love things I never loved before. That is Jesus.  I am seeing what He loves. He lives in me. I am sharing His life and seeing His views.  I am worthy of this.  It is Jesus.  I love the unlovely and the weird. That's who I was.  And He loves me. I love the common and the cranky. I love those I could have never loved. It is not hard for Him. I am sharing His life. Why can I love them? For only one reason, He loves them, just as He loved me, and He loves each one, very, very much.  He cares about each one very much.  I find I love the unstable, even the nutty. Just as He loved me. I love the blemished. I love the ones that seem useless. I love children and babies. That is Jesus.  It is not my love.  It is Him in my life.  Him loving.  Loving all through me.  His light shed abroad in my heart.  Because of Him.   I love old people, and teenagers.  I love because Jesus loves in me.  His Love goes out. His love truly reaches to the deepest places, and the more need, the more love He comes with His love. He is totally Capable. I'm not, but He is.  He will never leave me or forsake me.  It is like His hand reaching down to take ours. Any life that takes His, to hold onto, is going to be okay. He is God. He has a plan for everyone's life. He is Well Able. He changes our lives, totally,  every day.  We look nothing like we did at the beginning of this journey with Jesus Christ. We start to shine. Not because we are shiney, but because there is One in us Who is Light. And we are just lamps, clay vessels, to give His Light to others, because of Him Who lives in us and is that Light.  It is Him, so Beautiful, Expression of Love. Care. He is calling all to Him. And I want to answer. Come into the Light of Christ now, by just being with Him. Whoever calls on the Name of Jesus will be saved.  His love and warmth and presence changes us.    Eternal God, through His precious Son, Jesus, is concerned over you with Love.
