Good Morning ABBA, Father,

Winter is definitely upon us, and the New Year is a few days away. My Cup of Fancy this morning is hot chocolate..Oh the calories! Who cares? I’m tucked away in my War Room; sitting in my fav chair, my fav throw,  along with my laptop …and The Holy Spirit within me, ready to hit the keys.

How do I know that He lives within me?  Once you accept Jesus as your Lord and Savior, The Holy Spirit indwells you.  You become a new creation little by little; as He did with me.

The peaceful, somewhat warm colors mentioned above surround me in my blanket/throw. My candles are lit, and I’m ready to spend time with You, ABBA.

Eternity?..MMMM …Eye has not seen nor ear has not heard what God has prepared for those who love Him.

The movie Heaven is For Real is amazing; if that story doesn’t make you become a Believer, nothing else will. How about the depiction of Christ in THE CHOSEN; why wasn’t I given that,“Loving Jesus,” as a child? I was taught a legalistic Christ.  You never knew if you were going to heaven or not! God forbid you’d not confess a sin.  So after 12 years of it…I gave up on it in college. 

Our minds cannot comprehend the love You have for us, ABBA.  It is a mystery. When I saw the love of Christ portrayed in THE CHOSEN, I wept

All of us who are Christians, eagerly await the Rapture and the return of Christ.  In the meantime, our minds are transformed by Your Holy Word; knowing that we are justified and receive righteousness through FAITH AND GRACE.

It was You Holy Spirit who:

*Told me to seek Jesus like the woman with the issue of blood. When I saw S.3 EP.5 of THE CHOSEN….that was me. I sobbed as Jesus called her,”DAUGHTER.” In 12 years of education…I never felt that He truly loved me, but was out to get me.

*Told me 3 times/3 different people/Hab1:5 For I am going to do something in your days that you would not believe, even if you were told….Hab. 2:2-3Then The Lord replied,” Write down the revelation and make it plain on tablets, so that a herald may run with it.. For the revelation awaits an appointed time; it speaks of the end and will not prove false.  Though it linger, wait for it, it will certainly come and not delay(refer to my book, THE ERSTWHILE ACORN)

*The reason I author and blog.. ABBA…You ordered it. I’m simply being obedient.

*You know when The Holy Spirit is talking to you.

My 73 years have been an incredible walk of faith.

Oh! I’d been a Christian all my life.  However, I became God’s new creation when I was 50. Grace, Righteousness, Eternity, and my name written in The Lamb’s Book of Life, all aligned within my mind and spirit.

Yes, Heaven is for real. Yes, all Believers are headed for eternity.

Begin the New Year with a lightened load and a skip in your step. Praise You, ABBA, that we have the hope of Eternity.

Thank You, Father for blessing me this day.

MY CHILD: Once you have received Jesus as your Lord and Savior…..My Holy Spirit comes to live within you.  Yes, My Child….I live within you.  You are bound for eternity.  On the cross, when Jesus said,”It is finished,” it was a DONE DEAL! Yes, it is difficult when loved ones pass.  However, they are immediately in my presence. 

As for the resurrection of your body to immortality..LOL…check this out.

1 Thessalonians 4:16-18 For The Lord Himself will come down from heaven, with a loud command, with the voice of the archangel and the trumpet of God, and the dead in Christ will rise first. After that, we who are still alive and left will be caught up together with them in the clouds to meet the Lord in the air. And so we will be with The Lord forever. Therefore, encourage each other with these words.

Until then…continually seek Me, praise Me, glorify Me; for I live within you.

I love you, My Child.  Hold fast until Christ’s return.

MARANATHA!

Psalm 90:2 Before the mountains were brought forth, or even you had formed and given birth to the earth and the world, even from everlasting to everlasting….YOU ARE GOD.

Eze.2:13  “Be still before the Lord, all mankind, because He has raised himself from his Holy Dwelling.

John 3:3  In reply, Jesus declared,”I tell you the truth, no one can see the kingdom of God unless he is born again.

Romans 8:23  Not only so, but we who have the firstfruits of the Spirit, groan inwardly and wait eagerly for our adoptions as sons, the redemption of our bodies.
