If

If we do not let God reveal to us the pain in our lives so he can bring us freedom, we will avoid it and it will rule our behaviors and destroy our hearts. Pain will cause us to tear down our own houses with our own hands, it will turn our hearts into snares. The process of avoiding the work of God in the deep parts of our hearts will bring deception into our lives and establish demonic strongholds that bind us. It is for freedom that Christ came to set us free. There is always great love to experience when we confess the truth. We must confess that we are broken and in need of love and forgiveness. The is greatest joy that we can have is to have the heart of God.  This heart is only conveyed to those who seek it with thier whole hearts and are willing to humble themselves in pursuit of it.  It is the greatest joy.  All other fleeting pleasures are momentary and ultimately diminish our experience and capture our hearts. The worst thing that a human can experience is to be in slavery, like the Hebrews in Egypt, and to be offered freedom but desire the old way because it was familiar.  We will miss God entirely if we are not aware of His complete jealousy over our hearts.

We need to be willing to fight for each other's hearts like Christ fought for the heart of his bride.  Only love is accepted currency in His kingdom.  We can not pick and chose if we will love or not and expect to have good results.  Please honor your friends with love and the willingness to support the work of God in thier lives, even if it comes as a cost to you.

The only thing that fails is not-love.


Love never fails. Love bears all, believes all, hopes all, and endures all.
