Value of Concentration: Relationship verses Religion

Memory Verse: My “Relationship with Christ,” is the only path to salvation.

Good Morning, ABBA, Father,

As I drink in my Cup of Fancy, it might be iced tea or coffee, on which I am sipping, since we are having a heat wave.

Today’s value of Concentration: Relationship verses Religion: WOW! This topic was huge in my adolescence. Catholicism before Vatican II in the 1950’s was Rules! Rules! Rules! Do this, and He’ll forgive you. Do that, and He’ll love you. Don’t forget to confess that, or you’ll have to suffer in Purgatory. Along with the domestic violence within my home, my little heart and soul were scared of EVERYTHING!

The greatest thing with which The Holy Spirit Spirit blessed me was the following: Religion can teach you about Jesus. However, by forming a Relationship with Jesus Christ, He not only becomes your Best Friend, but also owns your heart and soul.

The Book of Romans was and is my Spiritual Psychiatrist! No fears…no worries… by FAITH I AM RIGHTEOUS!

I had a slight appetizer of Grace, with my Sweet Mother Ruthie. It was 57 years ago, in July that I
remember so vividly. She and my sister( both of you RIP) were having our routine stroll back to the lake.

She was relaying her personal relationship with Christ. She and Granny read many nondenominational pamphlets that arrived at our home.

They were ahead of their times as far as being Bible read and Bible fed. They were both filled to the brim with The Holy Spirit.

As any teen, I had to find my own way. However, along with my Sister in Christ, Gracie(Mennonite), we shed the rules of Legalism for Grace, at 50 years old.

It is so peaceful and such a blessing, as your Little Girl, to climb upon your lap and spend time in your presence. Jeremiah 33:3 “Call to me and I will answer you, and teach you amazing and unsearchable things you do not know,”says the Lord. You never fail. Each time that I set aside a special time…and in my special place….with you….you cease to amaze me.

My personal statement: When you seek Christ with all of your heart, mind and soul, HE WILL FIND YOU.

Thank You, Father for Grace, and transforming my mind, heart and soul… through GRACE. Thank You, Father, for blessing me this day.

MY CHILD: Our time together is so precious. I AM THE FATHER YOU NEVER HAD in your childhood; however, I was there carrying you. You remember in First Grade, I revealed to you the following:”You are a Leader….You are smart….You are a Becomer…You are a survivor.”” It is for my glory that I use the weak to become strong and work for my Kingdom.” As long as the Holy Spirit lives within you…all who read this are ‘Becomers,’ within my Kingdom. Continue to share your love, wisdom, and strength to all with whom you come in contact. You are teaching all nations.” I love you.
Your,
ABBA, Father

Ephesians 2:8-9 For it is by Grace that you have been saved, through faith- and this not from ourselves, it is the gift of God-not by works, so that no one can boast.

John 6:37 All that the Father gives me will come to me, and whoever comes to me, I will never drive away.

Col. 2:10 -12 And we pray this in order that you may live a life worthy of the Lord and may please him in every way: bearing fruit in every good work, growing in the knowledge of God, being strengthened wih power according to his glorious might, so that you may have endurance and patience, and joyfully giving thanks to the Father, who has qualified you to share in the inheritance of the saints in the kingdom of light.
