Passover … 2020... and the Carona virus

4/9/2020

0 Comments

 
         If you would have told me at the start of the year that everyone would be told to stay in their houses, and a nationwide "social distancing" would be in effect in the streets of the city... I would have laughed!  "The United States shutting down businesses, and telling people to stay inside?  Really?"

        And then... it hit!  Carona.  COVID-19.  Something so earth-shattering and cataclysmic that it would effect the welfare of the entire world and each person on the planet.

          Without a doubt: Right now, all around the world, every person's physical, emotional and spiritual foundation is being shaken.  Each person is evaluating: What do you find comfort in?  What do you find peace in?  What do you calm yourself with?  What gives you worth and value as a person (your job?  your income?  your home?).  What IS really important to exist in this life?  (Anyone have toilet paper?)   The foundations of our personal world is being shaken and tested.


           It reminds me of when Jesus said: 24 “Therefore everyone who hears these words of Mine and acts on them, may be compared to a wise man who built his house on the rock. 25 And the rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and yet it did not fall, for it had been founded on the rock. 26 Everyone who hears these words of Mine and does not act on them, will be like a foolish man who built his house on the sand. 27 The rain fell, and the floods came, and the winds blew and slammed against that house; and it fell—and great was its fall.” (Matthew 7:24-27)

           Now that the storm has hit the world in 2020... what is your house built upon?  The rock … Jesus and the Word of God?  Or of your own striving - and trying to work out peace and comfort in your own effort … the sand?  What is really important?

           It reminds me of when the Children of Israel were slaves in the land of Egypt.  Moses comes on the scene and 9 plagues had come from God upon the Pharaoh and the people of Egypt - but the Children of Israel were spared.  But the 10th and final plague (in Exodus, Chapter 12) was different than the 9 before it... for with the 10th and final plague, the death and destruction would hit EVERY HOUSE of EVERY FAMILY, regardless of nationality, sex or origin.  No matter what your political beliefs … and no matter how much money you did or didn't make... you were going to be effected.  It was a plague that would bring death upon the first born of every household - whether from Israel, or from Egypt.  Now, in light of Carona, can you imagine the fear?  Can you imagine the desire to keep you and all your family safe?

             So... God instructed that the key for being delivered from death - the only way so NO PLAGUE would come upon your household - was if you applied the blood of a lamb to cover the door posts and lintel of the house.  If you did this - if you applied the blood - then, when the Angel of Death was to descend … when it saw the blood … it would PASSOVER and all the lives would be spared inside that house.

              Likewise, Scripture tells us: "
Christ our Passover also has been sacrificed" (1 Corinthians 5:7).  And, Jesus is called the Lamb of God, and He was sent to take away the sin of the world (from John 1:29).  So, if you "apply the blood of Jesus to your life" - for He died on the Cross to take your place and that His very life would be given in your place.  And... if you take His blood and apply it to your life … asking Him to forgive you of your sins and to spare your life, for you now give your life to Him to be a covering over you... then... YOU WILL LIVE.  Then... you can enter your promised land in Heaven... and live as a triumphant child of God forever.

                 As we go through Passover in 2020 … in light of the Carona virus coming against every household of the world … may I ask you: "Have you applied the blood to the doorposts of your life?"

Spring Forth into the God-given Vision of who You ARE!

4/5/2019

0 Comments

 
         This 2019, I have decided to Spring Forward into all the Lord has planned for my life.

         But this involves me dying to myself ... and how I see the world... and choosing instead to live each moment by springing forward (and stepping forward) into the new man that God has made me to be. 

         How do we do this?  By focusing in the spirit realm - in the realm of my new identity in Christ (as a Son of God, as a Child of God, as His Ambassador and Priest of the Kingdom of God) versus how I see myself in this current world... I shed my old man and move forward into the new identity of who I am in Christ.

        This is an important truth that we all need to embrace, because if we are to move forward into the God-given dream of our lives: The Lord does not see you according to the "old man" or the ways of your flesh... but instead, through the Cross of Jesus Christ, your Heavenly Father sees  you as already risen and redeemed in the finished man of who you are in Him.  By focusing on this, a heavenly transformation begins to happen in your heart and your mind ... and then, begins to spring forward into the reality of your daily life as well.

        I get this from the teaching of the Apostle Paul in 2 Corinthians 5.  Let's read some of this together:

For the love of Christ constraineth us; because we thus judge, that if one died for all, then were all dead: (2 Corinthians 5:14)

        Notice that it is the love of Christ that directed the Apostle Paul's life... and that should be true for you and me as well.  This is found in the new commandment that Jesus gave us, where He told us, "A new commandment I give unto you, That ye love one another; as I have loved you, that ye also love one another.  By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples, if ye have love one to another." (John 13:34-35)  

        As we receive the love of God that He has for us ... His amazing grace poured out for us through the Cross of Christ ... and see ourselves (and the person in front of us) through that amazing love and heavenly grace, we actually release the power to come out of our "earthly boundaries" to feeling and being accepted for "who we are through the love of Christ."  This love sees us as treasures ... as precious children of God ... that God, Himself, would give His very life for, to know and love and be in relationship with - WOW!


And that he died for all, that they which live should not henceforth live unto themselves, but unto him which died for them, and rose again. Wherefore henceforth know we no man after the flesh: yea, though we have known Christ after the flesh, yet now henceforth know we him no more. (2 Corinthians 5:15, 16)

        We find new life when we choose to not live our lives for ourselves, but for God ... and to actually die to ourselves, and let God live and love through us to touch the person who is in front of us.  DOUBLE WOW!

Therefore if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new. (2 Corinthians 5:17)

        Scripture tells us that you are a new creature in Christ.  Old things are passed away...  and personally, God has been challenging me to see myself more and more through that new creature identity.  That much of what we have been taught has been to fight our inner struggles by focusing on our flesh and beating it into submission... but I am discovering that the more I focus on how God sees me, and my God-given dream inside of me as a Kingdom of God citizen... the things of this world become unimportant to me, and fall away.  My tastes for life change - and what brings me joy changes - and I actually become more "like a child of God" than a "fallen sinner" who is trying to get by.

And all things are of God, who hath reconciled us to himself by Jesus Christ, and hath given to us the ministry of reconciliation; To wit, that God was in Christ, reconciling the world unto himself, not imputing their trespasses unto them; and hath committed unto us the word of reconciliation.  (2 Corinthians 5:18-19)

        To be reconciled to God means that you are brought back into right relationship with God, not because of anything you have done... but rather, because of what God did through the Cross to release His great love into your life.  You did not earn salvation ... He bought salvation for you and offers it to you as a free gift (that you have to choose to receive and walk in - laying aside your way of living life, to come alive with His way of living life and loving others ... which leads us back to the love of Christ compelling us to how we live our lives).
Now then we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God did beseech you by us: we pray you in Christ's stead, be ye reconciled to God.  (2 Corinthians 5:20)

        Of course, once you have tasted of the goodness of salvation and God's great gift... and it begins to transform your life and how you see things in the world ... it can't help but make you want to share God's goodness and love with the person in front of you (and the cycle begins again!)

         The way to enter this transformed life?  By choosing to step into it ... and this Spring of 2019... I have chosen to spring into it... fresh, new and alive with the love of Jesus!  Won't you join me?

By "This" All Men Will Know...

3/27/2018

        Jesus said, "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another. By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another.” (John 13:35-36)

          When Jesus said this, it was hours before He was to give His life on the Cross for our sins.  He knew His life was going to be coming to an end ... that was why He washed His disciples feet to show His love for them (and then commanded them to wash one another's feet - to love on another!) ... that was why Jesus changed the very elements of Passover and their meaning, to give us the Lord's Supper and the sacraments that lead us to a place of now receiving Jesus' love, life and healing through His work on the Cross in a tangible act of worship...

          Jesus wanted to leave His disciples with symbols and teaching that would forever mark their lives and ministry - making it even more effective and accessible for others to touch the Kingdom of God both in, around and through their very lives.

          When I hear of people sharing the "love of Jesus" ... a lot of what people are actually doing is "loving someone else for Jesus" ... but that is not the degree of love that Jesus was pointing His disciples to live.

            He actually wants you and I to be His love and presence to others ... to let Jesus' love and presence flow into us, and be released through us for the person in front of us... to bring healing and life from Heaven and the Heavenly Father's heart for that person, in that moment.

            We are actually called to be Jesus' disciples on the earth today.  To actually let Jesus live and love in and around and through us, to the world around us, in this moment ... even as Jesus was one with the Heavenly Father and let His love flow through and bring healing and life to the world.  (This is precisely what Jesus was praying would happen in you and me, in John 17!)

             This is how the Resurrection life of Jesus can become real through us to others on a daily basis.

             This Easter Season, celebrate how Jesus made it possible through the Cross - and through His Resurrected presence - for you to let God love through you, in power, to bring healing to the world around you ... and then, go and be that!  "Christ the Lord is risen ... He is risen indeed!"

A New Command I Give ... Not To Do... But Simply To Love

7/8/2017

1 Comment

 
        I think we try to make the Christian life far more complicated than it really is ... it comes natural to us.  America is a nation of thinkers and doers.  For that reason many are compelled by "tell me what to do, to make God pleased with me" ... "just show me what I need to do to make God happy with me."  

        But the Kingdom of God is not a Kingdom that is set up by rules... it is a Kingdom that is obeyed in the heart. 

        When we read the Sermon on the Mount (in Matthew, Chapters 5-7), we read a list of commands that are redefined by Jesus to define "what are the inner motivations of your heart."

        In the Law, we read you shall not murder... but I tell you (Jesus talking), "Whoever says you 'good for nothing' shall be guilty."

        In the Law, we read you shall not commit adultery ... but I tell you (Jesus talking), "Whoever looks at a woman with lust for her, has already committed adultery with her in his heart."

        In my opinion, Jesus is saying throughout the Sermon on the Mount: "It's not just enough that you just do the right things in this life... but rather, that the motivation of your heart be pure and from a place of love, respect and honor to others."

        This fits later on, in the Gospel of John, where Jesus states very clearly: "A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another, even as I have loved you, that you also love one another.  By this all men will know that you are My disciples, if you have love for one another" (John 13:34-35).

         The Law of the Kingdom is fulfilled - and it is lived out - as we dedicate our lives to loving the person in front of us in this very moment... with the very same full-on love that Jesus shows you!  

          Love is the element that empowers spiritual gifts to have power and full meaning... 
          Love is the element that makes ministry effective and long lasting...
          Love is the element that makes faith have the source of its being...

           Just read about this in 1 Corinthians 13:1-3...

            "If I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but do not have love, I have become a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. If I have the gift of prophecy, and know all mysteries and all knowledge; and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing. And if I give all my possessions to feed the poor, and if I surrender my body to be burned, but do not have love, it profits me nothing..."

              Love ... letting God's love flow through us... empowering us to love the person in front of us... is what the Kingdom of God is all about!

             If I treat you with the love of God, I will not steal from you ... I will not lie to you... I will not harm you in any way... 

             You see: Love is the fulfillment of the Law!

             God is love.  So, as you let God's love motivate your heart in what you say - and do - and release through your heart today... the Kingdom of God will be empowered to bring change into each person you come in contact with...

              And that, sounds like a marvelous way to live life!

Need a New Year's Resolution?  TAKE MINE!

12/20/2016

0 Comments

 
My New Year's Resolution has been the same... for over 25 years, my life vision statement has been: “To help people experience the love and presence of Jesus through Word, deed and song.”

I have learned "the art" of doing this is by falling so in love with Jesus - and receiving and being overwhelmed in God's great love for me as His child - that is overflows into everything I do ... and everywhere I go.

All of this has been centered upon the truth that we serve a Risen Savior, Jesus Christ, who is still proclaiming “The Spirit of the Lord is on me,  because he has anointed me to preach good news to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim freedom for the prisoners and recovery of sight for the blind, to release the oppressed, to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor” (Luke 4:18-19).

And our Savior's heart desire in the Lord's High Priestly Prayer was that we would be ONE with Him and our Father in Heaven - EVEN AS HE is One with the Father in Heaven (moving in unity and sharing the love of His Heavenly Father ... only doing that which He saw His Father doing and saying that which He heard His Father saying). That oneness in Him - and in His love - is what will change the world! (Read it in John 17:1-5; 13-26; for yourself.)

My heart’s desire has been to “get out of the way” and let the Lord go first …  to let Him lead by His Spirit … to have the freedom to touch lives and minister healing as He directs (without my attempts to “tell him what to do” through prayer, but instead to listen and follow His anointing and direction).  The amazing thing is, as I have allowed God to do this, He has provided divine direction that has worked the power of the Kingdom of God before my eyes … healing people and dramatically setting them free through the presence of Jesus Christ.

The concept has been simple.  But carrying out of the premise has been a learning process, as I have discovered how much our pride and our flesh want to step in the way.

Through the unction of the Holy Spirit, God has spoken to my heart pictures and scriptures that, -at the time – didn’t seem to make logical sense.  But, when the message was spoken in obedience to the Lord (not in my trying to “figure it out”), the hidden meaning was revealed and confirmed immediately, and divine healing has sprung forth … for the working of His glory and not my own.

As you can imagine, with each step of success, I have become more zealous to let Jesus go first and give Him all the glory for the results.  For the failures, I have sought forgiveness.  The process has helped me to learn a walk of humility and transparency (not trying to “make something happen,” but just to go with whatever the Spirit of the Lord is truly working at this moment before my eyes) which is centered upon the truth that I do not have to look good and showy to be effective for the Lord… but simply to walk in gentle-hearted obedience.  I can be myself and not hyper-spiritualize in emotion and message, because the ministry of this moment is based upon a Risen Lord, Jesus Christ, loving the life that is in front of my eyes.

By giving God “the lead,” I have allowed the Lord to guide me along this career path (doing our Heavenly Father’s business as He directs).

This year, I resolve to fall more in love with God and draw closer to His heart every day ... and to let that love change the lives of those around me ... so I might be about "my Father's business" throughout the coming year.

Won't you join me?

What Does Summer Mean to You?  Keep It In Perspective...

7/5/2016

0 Comments

 
         Summer ... what does it mean to you?

         Here in Phoenix, the common phrase in 100-degree-plus heat is, "It's so hot!"

        Personally, I have grown to take the negative of that phrase and turn it into a positive... "Wow!  What a big and powerful Heavenly Father I have... just look at what He did!  He made that incredible light in the sky that is so strong - so amazingly wonderful- it can both light up the night sky and heat us up like an oven all these cajillion of miles a way at the same time ... Wow, now that is power!"

         As I get older, I have come to realize: How I face and overcome in the trials of my life will be based upon my perspective and point of view.  And, moment by moment - day by day - I am choosing which perspective and point of view I will live my life from.

         The Children of Israel had this very same opportunity as they wandered in the wilderness, before entering their Promised Land from God...

         They could either choose to focus on the negative surroundings of the desert they were walking through - and give in to the whining, murmuring and complaining about the heat ... the need for water and food ... and wondering, "How are we ever going to make it through this?" ... OR ...

          They could choose to say to themselves, "What an amazing God we serve!  He just delivered us from Pharaoh and the most powerful government on the face of the earth ... bringing plagues and darkness and delivering us by His mighty hand ... I am going to trust Him for what's next... Wow!  I can't wait to see how He's going to get us through this!"

         It's all a matter of perspective.  You can either choose to live this life according to your own eyes and ears ...  your own mental judgment and trying to figure things out ... with your own whining and complaining and "replaying the tapes" in your mind of "how hard things are" and "how will I ever get out of this one?" ...

        OR...

         You can choose a heavenly perspective ... thank Him for the great things He has done in your life and all the times God has proven Himself as faithful to you ... and choose instead to trust that your delivering, healing, all-powerful Heavenly Father has a way of leading, guiding, protecting and delivering you from this current situation as well, and ... "Gee!  I can't wait to see what He is going to do next!"

         It's all in perspective ... an earthly one ... or a heavenly one.  Which will you choose?

         There is an old saying, "If you can't stand the heat ... get out of the kitchen!"

          I am choosing to change that phrase to, "If you can't stand the heat ... find the good of what is going on in that kitchen and enjoy that!"

          For there is a lot of discomfort that comes from living in an oven ... but a lot of great things that can come out of one, if you get yourself out of the fire - separate yourself from the discomfort of the heat - and use it properly.

          As you yield your difficult circumstances to God - to a Heavenly Father who loves you so very much and has your best intentions in mind - I am confident that while you may not see the answer right now ... and things may be feeling uncomfortable ... our God is able to work all things together for good on your behalf.

           Keep it all in perspective ... in His heavenly perspective... and...

           I can't wait to see what God is going to do next!

The Love of a Mother... and the Love of My God

5/8/2016

0 Comments

 
           I have come to the conclusion that there is a relationship that is closer than Husband and Wife...
           It is the love that a Mother shares with her child.
           Formed in your mother's womb, there has been a sharing of blood, sweat, tears and DNA.... the sacrifice of giving of one's very life, to bear the life of another ... that forges a bond of intimate relationship that a man simply could never understand.
           Every joy ... every triumph ... every pain... every moment ... every step that is experienced by a child is felt by a Mom, as if she had done it herself, and is dearly treasured in her heart.

           Even I, as a child, can never fully understand the depths of my mother's heart toward me. It will always be far greater than I could ever imagine...
           And that, my friend, reflects God's love toward you.
           He shaped you in your mother's womb - and with your Mother's help, brought you into this world. Only He and your Mom could ever know the wonder of such personal, sacrificial love.

           Happy Mother's Day!

"Father, Forgive My Tears... I Will Trust You"

4/29/2016

1 Comment

 
         Without a doubt: It was uncomfortable for the Children of Israel to be in the wilderness ..

         But look at what God had just delivered them from! Years of oppression and slavery ... being whipped and tortured ... and yet God delivered them from all of this and Pharaoh and his army! 


         But now they were in the wilderness and were wondering, "How are we going to make it?" Since they didn't know the future - and all they could see was the desert sand, and a little bit of food (manna) and water ... they were afraid they were going to die right there. Their fear and torment in the moment, caused them to doubt God and His great love and faithfulness toward them (sorry for the difficulty in the journey, but there weren't jet planes, cruise ships or Uber back then to make the trip any easier).

         The truth was (although it was impossible for them to see it in the moment): Their lives were shifting - and the discomfort was about to bring about a change far greater than they could ever imagine - a place that would fulfill their deepest of dreams - coming out of a place of bondage and preparing to enter a Promised Land!

        All they had to do was cut God a break and TRUST GOD through a few days of discomfort ...
Instead: They whined. They complained. They yelled at God and said, "Did you bring us out here to die?"

        Today... in light of my life, and my uncomfortable and fearful circumstances... I am asking God to forgive my whining and crying heart... and I am choosing instead to say, "You are loving. You are good. And, while I don't know what the last chapter holds ... I signed up to follow You and to trust You - and I am not going to quit now. I pray I haven't been disqualified from this test yet because of the fear and whimper that originally rose from my heart... because, the truth is: I can't wait to see what You have ahead!"

It's So True... Love Never Fails!

4/26/2016

0 Comments

 
          For the longest time, I spent my days in fear about whether what I said or what I did might offend someone or hurt someone's feelings.  Oftentimes, I would just stand in a corner of a room filled with people and not say a thing, for fear that I might offend someone or say the wrong thing.
          Of course, I realize a lot of people might hear me share something like this and they would be like, "Tom, lighten up!  What's the big deal?"
          I realize now, that a lot of my fear was instilled in me by physical abuse in my childhood ... for whenever I crossed my drunken father, it might mean a beating that would threaten my very life (at least, to me it felt that way!).
         Nonetheless, as I grew older, whenever I offended someone - or hurt someone's feelings - I especially felt guilty and heartbroken about what I had done.  For that reason, I was (for the most part) a very well-behaved young man.  But, I was always overwhelmed by a sense of fear, that I might say or do something wrong.
         Then I discovered the beauty of 1 Corinthians 13, the "Love Chapter" in the Bible.


                              Love is patient, love is kind and is not jealous; love does not brag 
                              and is not arrogant,
 does not act unbecomingly; it does not seek
                              its own, is not provoked,does not take into account a wrong 
                              suffered,
 does not rejoice in unrighteousness, but rejoices with the                                               truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things,
                              endures all things.  
Love never fails... now (abide) faith, hope, love, abide                                 these three; but the greatest of these is love.  (1 Cor 13:4-8 and 13)

          I would later learn the joy of replacing the word "love" with the name "God" in each instance of the passage ... and thus, become amazingly overwhelmed by the goodness and greatness of God's great love for me.  For, God is patient.  God is kind.  And, I realized we could do that switch, because scripture also tells us that "God is love" (1 John 4:8), and love is who God is!
         Of course, I wanted to love like God loved - so I would take this exercise and replace my name wherever the word "love" is found.  Reading it like this: "Tom is patient.  Tom is kind... Tom does not take into account a wrong suffered..." Ouch!  It's tough for me to love like God loves!
         But then I realized: in my own strength it is impossible to love like God loves!
         Later, there was a movement where everyone asked the question, "What Would Jesus Say?" and "What Would Jesus Do?"  There were bracelets with WWJS and WWJD that people wore as reminders to speak like Jesus and to act like Jesus.  And these were wonderful reminders... but even then... it seemed so hard to catch myself from those moments of acting in my flesh and hurting someone's feelings.
         Then, I discovered the key!... Found earlier in 1 Corinthians the beauty of who you are in the heart and eyes of God is expressed ... "
Do you not know that you are a temple of God and that the Spirit of God dwells in you?" (1 Corinthians 3:16).
         That means: God's very presence lives and dwells inside of you.  If you have given your life to Christ and accepted Him as your Savior ... now His presence lives inside of you by the power of the Holy Spirit!
        So...
        This truth has totally changed my perspective (most of the time!) ... for now I have discovered that when I let God's love fill my heart - and I let His love overflow through my words and my actions - then God's love flows through me in this moment, and amazing things happen as they are ignited by the Spirit of God
!
           His love, flowing in, around, and through my life ... never fails!

Dark?  Chaotic? God's about to turn the light on!

4/12/2016

0 Comments

 
     In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth. The earth was formless and void, and darkness was over the surface of the deep, and the Spirit of God was moving over the surface of the waters. Then God said, “Let there be light”; and there was light. God saw that the light was good; and God separated the light from the darkness. God called the light day, and the darkness He called night. And there was evening and there was morning, one day. (Genesis 1:1-5)

    "Formless and void," in the Hebrew, means "dark and full of chaos."  This is the one verse that allows, theologically, for a season of "millions of years" that Carl Sagan and other scientists allude to, in regards to the earth's existence.  This would mean the earth could have been here in a state of darkness and chaos, and God said, "Let there be light," and order came... and the creation of the world, as we know it, came into being.

     Notice the "Spirit of the Lord is moving over the surface of the waters."  The imagery here is of a bird, flapping its wings and hovering over where it will land ... like the Holy Spirit descending upon Jesus like a dove when He was baptized in the Jordan River (see Luke 3:21-22).   Here is God's presence, in the Beginning -  waiting to find the place to land - and He is stirring things up over the surface of the waters.  Hovering ... waiting ... for just the right moment to touch ground and change the entire situation of darkness and chaos, into a place where God's miracle power can go to work!

     Then God says, "Let there be light" ... and a holy separation occurs between light and darkness.  And notice: The sun and moon aren't mentioned until a few verses later (In Genesis 1:14!)  Could it be this is a separation on the earth between where the Kingdom of Light (the Kingdom of God) existed and where the kingdom of darkness would be pushed back?

     From this point on, there is divine order that enters the world (separation of light from darkness, of land and sea) ... there is new creation of plants and animals, and this beautiful world is re-made into something wonderful that are enjoying (howbeit, even now, in a fallen state) ... and man and woman are created to tend the garden, while ruling and having dominion of His creation.  God is going to work and making something miraculously beautiful, where once there was darkness and chaos.

     What would something like this mean to you and me?
  1.  God loves to come to dark and chaotic places and bring order and new life... HIS life... into that very place. 
  2. His Spirit is hovering and waiting for a place to land - waiting for the welcoming moment for such a miracle work like this to occur.
  3. Could it be that the dark and chaotic place we are sensing, is actually a place of stirring as we are under the "hovering wings of the dove" of the Holy Spirit ... and the shifting in our lives could actually mean big changes from the Lord are soon to take place?

     This message gives me hope.  And, if you are in a place of "darkness and chaos" in your life, call upon Jesus - the presence of God - to come in and bring divine order and blessing into your situation.  Invite Him in to bring a change!  And, if this is you...

     Hang on ... hang on ... the minute you invite Him in, God's gonna make something beautiful in, around, and through your life.  It's coming!

    5 weeks into my marriage, I developed MS - had a season in a wheelchair and was blind.  In the process, I determined to fall more and more in love with Jesus. While sick, I learned to hear God's voice and saw others healed by Jesus' loving touch.  After 7 years, I was divinely healed by the grace of God... and now, for 25 years I've been sharing the joy of "experiencing God" with others.  Have a seat!
