There are no multiple paths or multiple gods to bring you to a relationship with God.    There is only one way and that is through Jesus.  Jesus said in John 14:6, "I am the way, and the truth, and the life.  No one comes to the Father except through me."

As Christian, we have a choice to make each day.  We can choose to live according to the Spirit; or live pleasing our flesh.  Paul wrote the instructions to the Ephesians regarding their new life in Christ and their behavior as Christian.

I knew that I needed mental, physical, and emotional rest.  It has been and is a hard season. Our lives seem to go at warp speed racing to work in the morning, racing to the next event, and even rushing from one church service to the next. 

There is no denying the crisis that is going on in our world. However, we must not let fear win and rob us of our joy. Jesus said in John 10:10, “The thief comes only to steal and kill and destroy; I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full.”

Rough waters or the storms of life can come on us with little to no warning.  We may not be able to control what life brings, but we can know this:   we can take comfort in the words of Jesus, knowing that He will not abandon his children but will be with us to the end – no matter what.

Daily cleansing only comes by ingesting the Word of God.  We must allow it to wash us and penetrate our hearts ridding us of everything that is not like Jesus.

You see, God doesn’t want anyone to perish.  He calls everyone to repent of their sins, turn from their wicked ways and follow Jesus. God will not force anyone to pursue Jesus.

I have seen sacrificial love in earthly fathers; but, even at their best, their love doesn’t compare with the love of our Heavenly Father. God loves us unconditionally. 

You can’t fake genuine love.  Sooner or later, the real fruit of the heart is going to be exposed.  We have all been on the receiving end or we have all seen someone who talked the talk of love but didn’t walk the walk. 

You see, Covid hit our home.  My husband and I both tested positive.  If you haven’t experienced “the Rona” personally, it is no joke.  The symptoms that go along with this virus hit the body like a Mack truck.
