THE JOY OF THE LORD IS MY STRENGTH

How do I convey what is in my heart today?

I am convinced, that unless you personally know Christ, you will most likely laugh or 'roll your eyes' in speculation or maybe 'pity' at my attempted description of the joy and fullness that I am experiencing today.

I wish there were words to describe the "blessing and fullness of the Holy Spirit" that can be experienced in knowing God through a relationship with Christ. Today, it is like all the greatest experiences in love and life are captured and compacted into each moment of this day. Without being too graphic, may I say that 'life in the Spirit' is like experiencing the best of any great romantic or 'love' experience. It is an intimacy that is better than ANY the flesh can experience. It is one's own spirit (or soul), connecting with the very Spirit of God!

If any of you have not experienced this fullness of the Spirit, or do not know the True God, Creator of the Universe, who loves and cares for YOU....please feel free to ask me about Him! I would be happy to share the Truth that I learned many years ago from a former "bar-room buddy" of mine who often spoke about Jesus as if he KNEW Him! My interest was peaked and that began the process of knowing Christ, surrendering to Him as my Savior AND Lord. (that's the VERY short version!)

I wish I had adequate words to describe for you what "Walking God's Way" is like. I think, perhaps God has designed this relationship with Him to be so awesome, that even words can not describe it! It MUST be experienced through FAITH alone! My prayer is that everyone who stumbles across this blog will today, quietly and with faith, (if even "as small as a mustard seed") call on the name of Jesus today; for salvation, rescue and restoration of their relationship with God.

"I am the way, the truth, and the life.

No one comes to the Father except through Me." ~ Jesus Christ
