KNOCK KNOCK, ANYBODY THERE?

Just home from the last INCREDIBLE bible study done by our pastor for, I think,  six weeks on Monday mornings.  I'm still flying high, yet wondering, why didn't I have this info when I was 25?  Anyway, it was great.  And it reminded me of today's journaling........

 In Acts 18, Paul's efforts with the Jews, wherever he traveled,was really tough.  They loved to argue with Paul and contradict each point he tried to make whenever and wherever he spoke.  Paul never gave up, and although at times discouraged, he kept at it; he persevered.

It is hard to continue to tell people about Jesus when there is no one who wants to listen.  But Paul, filled with the Holy Spirit, touched uncounted hearts and lives during his time of ministry.  Telling many, perhaps only a few listened, and fewer still caught  on.  Then, those that caught on began to tell many, and a few of them caught on and the company of Christians grew and grew.  One person seems like nothing, but the power of God through one can become enough to fill a meeting place.  But, and a big but, WE MUST TRUST that this is so.  God will be at work without fail!

The same holds true for a single blogger.  One blog may ignite no one. But it goes up into the never-never land of computer "cloud" and stays, and is always there, always available.  ( At least that's what they tell me!) So, maybe, one blog may ignite many people given enough time.  At least, that is my hope.  At least, that is my prayer and I MUST TRUST  that this is so.  God will be at work without fail!

You see, I like people.  No, I really love people. And I know the truth and wear that truth wherever  I go.  I'm not anybody special, but I am someone who has met the Master and been convinced that He and no one else is THE TRUTH.

I started blogging for my grandchildren, and now, for my great-grandchildren.  But, and this is the truth, I got so enthused for telling others about Jesus and His Word that I only hoped they would read it, and if they didn't?  Well, I hoped someone out there would come to know the Master who didn't know Him before.  Or at least come to know Him better than they did before.  Or at least have the blessing to tell someone else about this Man and God who sacrificed Himself so that we do not have to be sacrificed for our sins.  I am nurtured, blessed, made peaceful, ignited, and so certain of His love that I am near bursting with the fire of it!  How I pray that you feel this rapturous love as well!  I can hardly bear to carry this lovely love without a way to share it.

That's why I blog!

Forever At His Feet, I am just.....Jo
