If ye continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed; And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free. John 8:31, 32 |
Love Your Servants Love, love, love. Tender Love is the secret. Love those you’re training, Love those who work with you, love those who serve you. Dwell on that idea – God is Love. Link it up with My “I and my Father are one.” Dwell on My actions on earth. See in them Love in operation. As it was God who so Acted, it’s Love, Perfect Love, performed those actions, in those wonders. Then you, too, must put Love (God) into action in your lives. Perfect Love means perfect forgiveness. Lo, my children, you see that where God is there can be no lack of forgiveness, for that is really lack of love. God is Love . . . no judging. God is Love . . . no resentment. God is Love . . . all patience. God is Love . . . all power. God is Love . . . all supply. All you need to have is love to God and man. Love to God ensures obedience to every wish, every command. Love is the fulfilling of all law. Pray much for love. “And we have known and believed the love that God hath to us. God is love; and he that dwelleth in love dwelleth in God, and God in him.” 1 John 4:16 My children, I come. Hearts eager to do My Will, send out and call that ever I find irresistible. I know no barrier then. Resignation to My Will keeps Me barred out from more Hearts than does unbelief. Can anything be such a crime against Love as being resigned? My Will should be welcomed with a glad wonder if I am to do My Work in the heart and life.The only resignation that could possibly be acceptable to Me is when Self, ousted by My claims, accepts the inevitable and resigns the throne for Me, leaving My Disciple free to carry out My Will, to welcome My Will gladly, rapturous In all true discipleship, and in the true spiritual development of each disciple, there is first the wonder, the joy of first acquaintance, then comes thate long stretch of lesson-learning and discipline, when Joy seems so much a thing of the past as never to be recaptured again.But the constant experience of Me, the constant persistent recognition of My Work in daily happenings — the accumulating weight of evidence in support of My Guidance — numberless instances in which seeming chance or wonderful coincidence can be, must be, traced back to My Loving fOrethought – these gradually engender a feeling of wonder, certainty, gratitude, followed in time by Joy. Joy is of two kinds. The Joy born of Love, Wonder, and the Joy born of Love and Knowledge, between the experience of the two Joys lie discipline, disappointment, almost disillusion. Combat these in My Strength, or rather cling blindly, helplessly to Me and let Me combat them, persevere in obeying My Will, accept My discipline, and the second Joy will follow. And of this second Joy it was that I said, “Your joy no man taketh from you.”Do not regret the first, the second is the greater gift. |

Daily Lesson
When dealing with others the most hurtful word you can use is “NO.”
Stop and think beforeyou use it. If it is not important say “yes.” If it is
then give a reason why you do not agree. Ask any child what is the worse
thing a parent can say to them and do not be surprised at their answer. Never
forget that no matter how old one is there is an inner child in everyone that can still
be hurt.
