Relationships in Eternity
©2003 Broken
Relationships in Eternity are sealed by the work of the Holy Spirit on this earth, our relationship with God being the most important. He wants us to love Him with all our heart, soul, mind and spirit and put Him first over everyone and everything.
Through the power of the Holy Spirit He re-creates us in the likeness of His son, Jesus Christ. Throughout this process as He builds a strong foundation in our spirit, He insists on complete surrender to His will in every area of our lives. When we do that, he will work in all our relationships through the power of the Holy Spirit to bring them to a place of surrender to His will.
We don't know what He does according to each person, they have to make their own choices about surrendering to Him, but God has one thing in mind for all of us...whatever it takes to prepare us to live in His Kingdom. Each person, each relationship in our lives must be turned over to Him. Surrender means we no longer control situations or their outcomes.
There is no offense too great for His totally unconditional love. He would leave no one outside to suffer alone. He is the loving healer of our broken hearts and He longs to be invited in so that He can change our lives and prepare us for the Kingdom.. |  | New Article

Prayer |
There are times in our life when we learn to be patient and we wait for prayer to be answered. Why do we have to wait? There are many reasons but some people think that we should have all of our prayers answered immediately. Sometimes we pray for what is not really God's best but with our limited understanding, we desperately need many things.Sometimes God wants us to reflect on what we already have and focus on what is daily before us. Contentment can come with acceptance.
We can have many things but want still more or something different. The world calls out to us to take anything we can if we have opportunity. Sometimes God lets an opportunity be presented to us that would gratify and satisfy our wants and desires but then offers another path that asks sacrifice. We might have to step out in faith not knowing what's around the next corner. Can we follow our heart rather than our comfort needs?
We also pray for healing or solutions to serious relationship problems or financial assistance through tough times.We pray for help for loved ones and for spiritual deliverance. Why does it seem at times that God doesn't hear these prayers? We know he really does hear them, he cares and he wants to help us but answers are not forthcoming. We agonize but it seems God turns a deaf ear to our pain.
I believe that a lot of our answers are within ourselves. God may be waiting to see if we will grow up spiritually and take responsibility for our own solutions. He wants us to mature and develop into strong, faith filled people who will not back down on a stand for truth. Maybe we can speak words of power and truth and overcome the lies of the enemy with what God has already given us. Our thoughts and words become very powerful when we stand on what we know is true. Truth is the sword that slays the enemie's lies.

Message to You
The awakened sages call a person wise when all his undertakings are free
from anxiety about results; all his selfish desires have been consumed in
the fire of knowledge. The wise, ever satisfied, have abandoned all
external supports. Their security is unaffected by the results of their
action; even while acting, they really do nothing at all [i.e., nothing
producing karma]. Free from expectations and from all sense of
possession, with mind and body firmly controlled by the Self, they do not
incur sin by the performance of physical action.
Hinduism. Bhagavad Gita 4.19-21 |
Friends are friends forever
