To surrender is to love God

[Godlovestrength]

I believe that the greatest gift is to surrender ourself poor and retched, needing compassion, to the love of God. To God who in turn will reveal Himself as the only sourse of pure love to those who are very little ones knowing that God is their Father a father of compassin and love.
Is it not so sweet to serve God in obscurity and trial. We have only this life in which to live by faith, a faith in a God who could never love without loving those who are His children, those who He calls as His little ones.

God who askes "come to me you who are thirsty, not for riches nor for position or posession. No, those who see themself as wretched little ones seeing their poorness and saying “ABBA, Father”,

Who will by this way come?

God bless the little ones

 

[Godlovestrength]

Father,… I will come, take up the cross of my wretchedness I will come as I am… Father take me! In my littleness, for I am not worthy of Your love so Father give it to me.
Do with me what you will.

Follow Love, the purest of Love if you will! in the footprints of the Father,
in the words of Our Lord Jesus,
in the power of the Holy Spirit of God.

To know God, is to love as God loves. To love others as God loves, one must love God.

As the lover takes on the attributes of the beloved, so too do those who love God, become more like God, who is love.

“God can not be grasped, except through love.”

Lord God who is Love
I can offer You all I have in wealth, possessions my position, my learning. But all these have no value at all, for what You ask of me is obedience. It is in obedience that You ask not of my earthly values, rather it is the freedom You give me to choose whether I will follow the spirit or the flesh!

No! Lord I could not offer You the flesh for it has no value, for tomorrow it will be diciest. So I will give You what lasts forever. I come in obedience to love, and it is this love You once chose to enter into my heart, for Your own desire, for You could at that time not find a more undeserving one to fill with Your Love for if You had found someone then You would have given that Love so precious to them.
Therefore dear Lord I don’t give You any ability for they are only a puff in the win. No I give to You what my flesh hungers for, yet does not understand. I offer You oh! Lord, me, a broken vase, no, even less a smashed , or even a shattered vase crushed so that, Oh Lord You can have the only souse I have that I am able to give to you, to Your desire, to your Love, I give to You my availability.

Oh! Lord do with me what You wish that the world may know that Jesus Christ is Lord and God of all.

God You alone are Love

Today I had a situation at work that was so hard to take, very dangerous and why it happened was well I don’tknow why the boss did it but… and last night the neighbours were (for the secondnight ina row) playing their music so loud until 6 30 in the morning that I found I wasn’t going to be quiet.
I rang the noise control they came and we all slept like loggs. and yet i am bound to desiring to surrender. This isn’t the easiest thing I have ever done.
No compromise no excusses.
God help me tolearn please

Godbless

I believe that this is what is ment by to take up your cross and follow me! For this cross is to put down the human attitudes and follow the hard way of Jesus Christ that walks against our human thoughts and deeds.

I agree Jim.

Godbless
