AUGUST 17

Colors: Envy Green and Seafoam. Both colors represent the value of being able to forgive quickly. These colors can be used in a summer outfit, or would really brighten a room.

Value of Concentration: I Can’t Forgive Myself

Memory Verse: Through Grace, I am PURE in his eyes.

Good Morning, ABBA, Father,

As I sit on my big country porch, sipping my Cup of Fancy, I am blessed, taking in the view of your creation.

The corn is growing tall, and glistening in the sunlight: bowing to You..the Alpha and Omega, as the wind caresses the leaves.

The smell of newly mowed hay is such an elixir, in the summer. My man is rolling hay across the road and farming continues, as usual.

With my puppies at my feet, I am blessed. I feel so unconditionally loved by you. However, I didn’t always feel this way.

Until I fully understood GRACE, I never knew if I was forgiven. I thought that I could lose my salvation, at any time. Threats of Purgatory etc. created nothing but fear and guilt. I was never good enough, no matter how hard I tried.

Even after I repented, and you had forgiven me, I found it hard to forgive myself, for the sins of my youth. The Jesus that I was raised with was very harsh and scary.

BUT GOD…But My Mighty God….I now sit upon your lap as your arms enfold me. The Book of Romans teaches me that I am righteous by my faith alone.

As I viewed the character of Jesus, in the series THE CHOSEN, I wept. Why? It was the first time in my life (now 72) that I viewed such a human, soft, loving, non- condemning Savior.

When he was tempted for 40 days, he understood and experienced all of our temptations. He gave his life willingly for our sins.

So the next time the evil one tries to recall past sins, remind the demon that your sin was taken to the cross. Submit your life to Christ: Let Go…and Let God!

Thank You father, for sending your Son, for our salvation.

MY CHILD: Once you are sealed by The Holy Spirit, and have accepted me as your Lord and Savior, it is almost impossible to lose your salvation. Once you belong to me, I will do everything to reawaken your need for me, and keep you on the path of life. The colors of green that you mentioned previously, speak of rest and forgiveness. Summer, with all of the green foliage, creates a scope and sequence of calm. Rest in my Presence. Know that I am with you always. You are Mine. I can bring “The Sonlight,” to your darkest days. Allow my light to shine through you. Touch the lives of others through Grace and Forgiveness. I love you.
Your,
ABBA, Father

Psalm 103:2-5 Praise the Lord, Oh my soul, and forget not all his benefits-who forgives all your sins and heals all of your diseases, who redeems your life from the pit and crowns you with love and compassion, who satisfies your desires with good things so that your youth is renewed like the eagle’s.

1 Cor. 6:11 (Christ previously speaks of immorality) And that is what some of you were. But you were washed, you were sanctified, you were justified in the name of the Lord Jesus Christ, and by the Spirit of God.

1 John 1:9 If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, and will forgive our sins and purify us from all
unrighteousness.
