    Yahweh opened the mouth of the donkey, and she said to Balaam, "What have I done to you, that you have struck me these three times?" Balaam said to the donkey, "Because you have mocked me, I wish there were a sword in my hand, for now I would have killed you." The donkey said to Balaam, "Am I not yo...

    Now the king of Syria had commanded the captains of his chariots, saying, "Don't fight with small nor great, except only with the king of Israel." When the captains of the chariots saw Jehoshaphat, they said, "It is the king of Israel!" Therefore they turned around to fight against him. But Jehoshap...

Everlasting Love

  • Yahweh appeared of old to me, saying, Yes, I have loved you with an everlasting love: therefore with loving kindness have I drawn you. Jeremiah 31:3 WEB

    So many times in my life I felt that I had let God down, failed, and then stopped even trying. "What was the use", I thought. I was a failure and He was disappointed in me anyway. Sometimes a month would go by before I even spoke to Him again.

    Then when I finally came to my senses, saw the light, had an I was blind, but now I see moment, He was there waiting. Just as the prodigal son that came to his senses and went back home to his father, so was I. The moment that I changed my attitude, accepted that the past was unchangeable, He was ready to get back to work. It was always an OK, now lets go moment.

    God is not concerned about our past. He is concerned with what is left of our future. Our life here is only a brief moment in time and if we really understood that, most of us would live it differently. We try and build things here that will last forever when everything around us is temporary.

    He draws us to Himself with loving kindness and His love for us is everlasting. Nothing that you can do or have done will change His love for you. On the other hand, can you discipline a child and still love them? Absolutely. Jesus said, Those whom I love, I reprove and discipline, so be zealous and repent. (Revelation 3:19). Paul wrote that Gods kindness is intended to lead you to repentance (Romans 2:4).

    Our past life may have some dark spots, but He will never turn away from us. He will always love us and when we ask, He will gladly forgive us and restore us, for His love is everlasting. He has a plan and a purpose for your life and you were put here for such a time as this. Make it count.

    Prayer: Father thank You for Your everlasting love. Thank You for accepting me just as I am and washing me as white as snow. Cleanse me, use me, guide me, in the name of Jesus I pray.

Kealtis "Key" Austin This post has truly come right on time for me.  I really felt I had let God donwn on lastnight.  I mean just really disappointed Him.  I felt to heavy over it I couldn't even pray.  This morning, His grace and mercy is new everyday, was truly with me.  THANK YOU FATHER GOD FOR BEING IN CONTROL OF EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING!  He is such a merciful and forgiving God.  And nothing you can do will ever change that or His love for you.

Dion Todd God adores you and it is not Him that is bringing the guilt and shame. Be quick to say that you are sorry, get up, pull yourself together and make the rest of your life count. There is no time to waste by dwelling on the past. When you spill milk, you clean it up and be more careful.  May you have a blessed day!

Carol Pady
Carol Pady Amen! It never ceases to amaze me how whenever I strayed he continued to seek me and when I returned He embraced me with His abundant love and forgiveness. In my senior years I have learned to be more faithful and I pray more than ever. It has kept me from straying and convicted me of things I needed to change. I only wish I had been so resolved in my youth. I  cannot change the past , but I can change the future. One day at a time walking closer with God.

Noraima Crespo Thank you Pastor Dion, I needed to read this so much because it's so me in very way possible. Sometimes I hate myself thinking why does the lord love so much I'm such loser, a nobody and why me? But no matter what I think or feel he always proves that he loves me so sometimes I can't even explain into words. I'm just so grateful, Thank you Lord Amen !
