I love Jesus more because of the love you have for Jesus. You , Eric, have been a beautiful picture of what it looks like to love Jesus. I'm so thankful for all you have shared on loving Jesus. I have been falling in love with Jesus more and more because of what you have been sharing about loving Jesus.
When I got saved back in 1970 I realized Jesus was a real guy! I'd grown up going to Sunday School, Vacation Bible school and I think I thought Jesus was some cartoon guy on our little Sunday School books. I was 16 and I found a book, cannot remember the name but it was a book about Jesus' whole life. It was a weird paperback book and I devoured it. And when I was finished, I realized in my heart............Jesus was a real guy! He wasn't some Sunday school brochure comic book thing. And all alone, I sat on my mom's couch and asked Him into my heart and BOOM I have never been the same since!! So...at almost 70 years old......I shouted AMEN!!! when you said Jesus was a REAL person!!!! 💕
Good testimony! That is sad truth really how Sunday school makes on all the contrary - better not to go there where people doesn't share real presence of God.
Oh the joy and love and tenderness of Jesus imparted to us through this fellowship! Thank you, Lord! and God bless you, brothers and reveal Jesus to you more and evermore .....❤❤
In tears watching this. So needed. I finished Gentle and Lowly the other day and was wrecked. Definitely going to get Deeper next. Thank you both for sharing these revelations and needed truths and sharing your love with the Lord to us in obedience ❤❤❤
Revealing God's heart though our sinfulness took Him to the cross; who am I not to forgive whom God sent to interrupt my way; so I can learn from Him?❤He Is For you to bring the " I AM into your a'I(i) aM' into my aim !! ?.
God blows me away!!! I juuuuust posted this to my wall on FB earlier today😮. Oh he's Soo beautiful in Soo many ways beyond what we could ever imagine. Because God knew my entire life was not going to be an easy one, but rather like walking through literal hell, suffering on an everyday basis, crying into my pillow night after night, longing....hoping He would just take me home!! Dreading yet another cold, lonely and frightening day ahead. Right away on my journey with Him, he bypassed giving me any desire to study his word (which is good and needed) and took me straight into his heart to build a One on one relationship with him. I was so void of true love and affection from the day I could start remembering as a little boy. Coming home from elementary school and being told to go down in the basement (the typical basements used for hot water tanks, electrical boxes and dirt and cobwebs) to play with a single light off in the distant. By the time I reach about 5-6 years old I had seen my mom beat to the floor by a number of different "father figures" that at 6 years old (remembering the exact events as though it happened just yesterday) as my mom is on the floor crying and screaming to death, a tall black man bending over her twisting her ankle. My instinct to protect my mom kicked in. I slid a kitchen chair over to the draw the knives were in, jumped down and ran over and jumped on this man's back. Can't remember the rest as I'm sure he probably just pushed me off....but I'd like to think that it was me that at least stopped him from going on. (God's shown me that at 5 and 6yrs old, I wasn't playing with the other kids at the parks, (although I did play, but my play time consisted of hurting and harming, even killing little animals. I did the only thing I'd been shown.) but rather spend my childhood trying to defend and protect my mom...even when she'd ask me to get her drink that was across the kitchen. (She suffered greatly in her own pain and suffering, and couldn't find her comfort apart from numbing it behind alcohol. As I was on that path also...drowning in alcohol, 'many don't know this' but a # of years back I was hospitalized (worried cuz I was throwing up blood) due to going through a 3 week drinking binge, morning noon and night. I counted 13 empty boxes of wine piled up in the corner of my kitchen. The Dr. at the ER told me that if I would have drank 1 more drink I would have probably gone into comatose.) God's told me a number of different times, that he can't bear the idea of me putting any kind of labor (reading and studying his word) because I've already been through so much and that's why He's drawn me straight into a love relationship with Him. It might baffle some people out there....but he doesn't even want me to view him as God, but rather wants me to believe that He wants to be with me just as I would be in a relationship on this earth. Just living life together. No agendas. Sharing laughs. Sharing pains. And sharing our love for one another. And that we do!!! I literally sense him with me throughout my days, side by side. Enjoying what I enjoy....Together!! FOREVER AND EVER❤️!! He knew how much I just needed love and affection....and he's told me, "Now it's my turn to take care of you ❤️." He melts my heart!!! I wanna end this with an encouragement for anyone dealing with something they've been hoping and praying for....buts seems hopeless. As I prayed and believed God would take my daily pains of shame and a sense of worthlessness. But He settled these words he spoke inside my heart.... "It's not enough for Me to simply heal you...But instead, because of how much I love you, I long to be a part of nurturing you back to health, the same as an earthy father loves and cares for their little ones....I want that too❤️."
So good to experience fellowship and insightful dialog with Christian leaders who are men. We are told women are better communicators, and most male Christian speakers seem to want to promote their denominations, their programs, their books, themselves, but refreshingly, you guys adore Jesus! Thank you, brothers.
