Together with God

Togetherness starts with oneself and Jesus. Understanding that there are differences in everyone and appreciating others and ourselves with gratitude is what we need to become whole.We must let the light in.

In the Old Testament, Jeremiah announces the new alliance six hundred years before Jesus-Christ.  Jeremiah 31:31-34 31“The days are coming,” declares the Lord,

“when I will make a new covenant

with the people of Israel

and with the people of Judah.

32It will not be like the covenant

I made with their ancestors

when I took them by the hand

to lead them out of Egypt,

because they broke my covenant,

though I was a husband to^d them,^e ”

declares the Lord.

33“This is the covenant I will make with the people of Israel

after that time,” declares the Lord.

“I will put my law in their minds

and write it on their hearts.

I will be their God,

and they will be my people.

34No longer will they teach their neighbor,

or say to one another, ‘Know the Lord,’

because they will all know me,

from the least of them to the greatest,”

declares the Lord.

“For I will forgive their wickedness

and will remember their sins no more.”

Jesus calls for everyone

John 17 :20-26

20“My prayer is not for them alone. I pray also for those who will believe in me through their message, 21that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you. May they also be in us so that the world may believe that you have sent me. 22I have given them the glory that you gave me, that they may be one as we are one— 23I in them and you in me—so that they may be brought to complete unity. Then the world will know that you sent me and have loved them even as you have loved me.

24“Father, I want those you have given me to be with me where I am, and to see my glory, the glory you have given me because you loved me before the creation of the world.

25“Righteous Father, though the world does not know you, I know you, and they know that you have sent me. 26I have made you^e known to them, and will continue to make you known in order that the love you have for me may be in them and that I myself may be in them.”

A true story

I believe in the church, The term in itself sends a positive message when it includes a greater sharing with God. But the need for membershp should be known to be for everyone. The well educated person is just another person and everybody needs a network of friends, no one makes it alone. Although it is with different bible study that the uneducated can learn to feel good, the bible remains number one for everyone. Bible study is more than learning a state of being like positive thinking and attitude; it is in fact education in love. Development is for everybody. A greater goal is always what brings success. It is great that someone who didn't have a chance, being secluded or ill treated in some fashion, can rise up by getting involved in his own christian developement, Christ being an instant cure for so many people, but it is also sad that a well educated person may lose himself by lack of confidence or simply not knowing how to cope. Everybody should recognize their need to learn life supporting faith, which I believe to be a sense of duty. I remember, more than twenty years ago, when this man had to replace for 2 weeks a supervisor of a team of 10 security guards. He had a newbie on the team, a real out of place young man he had to give only the useless tasks to execute. All the men were working at close to minimum wage, but everyone except the newbie was performing at high level. This poor man had a bachelor in administration, he was working with no incentive at the bottom of a latter going nowhere, he was to out of it to work in his own field to at least prepare himself for an opportunity. This man was pitiful in is expression, his talk, his walk. "Simple requirements" wasn't in his vocabulary, everything seemed complicated, and for him an easy paste meant being stalled. He was down on himself, but why? Why was he lost? He just didn't have the good sense to start where he could in what he knew; frustration took him away from sharing the best at the moment. Just to say that technique isn't everything in fact it is nothing if you do not do with what you have. But technique in Christ shows you how to advance from Milestone to Milestone. Mathew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own. Have balance in your life. Here is that word again: Life. Find yourself balance. Love is teachable, read the bible for Life, and find a purpose, achieve something by finding how to jump from here to eternity. All you need is love. Love is infinity. God is love. 1John 4:8 whoever does not love does not know God, because God is love.

The grace of Jesus Christ be with you all!
