God, create a clean heart for me and renew a right spirit within me. Do not banish me from Your presence or take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore the joy of Your salvation to me, and give me a willing spirit. Then I will teach the rebellious Your ways, and sinners will return to You. Psalm 51:10-13
"Lord," the centurion replied, "I am not worthy to have you come under my roof, but only say the word and my servant will be healed"... Hearing this Jesus was amazed and said to those following Him, "I assure you I have not found anyone in Israel with so great a faith! I tell you many will come from east and west and recline at the table with Abraham, Isaac and Jacob in the kingdom of heaven. But the sons of the kingdom will be thrown into the outer darkness. In that place there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth." Matthew 8:5-12
This is why in Isaiah 61:3, The Mighty, Righteous One, reminds us the reason we are planted by Him, for Him and to always be with Him, is for His joy to be complete by our recognizing and acknowledging Him in ALL our ways....Then our joy will be complete. When that happens we can't help from sharing His light, love and life with any and all who will listen. Please remember that as these scriptures testify and remind you and I, this unparalleled, incomparable, priceless gift of love can be turned down and lost forever. As always, He loves you enough to leave the choice completely in your hands. The honor to choose is yours and yours alone. This is THE choice that is, NEVER to be taken lightly. Matthew 7:24-27, Numbers 16:38, Luke 12:1-6, Isaiah 5:1-7
