We live in difficult times. As such, it can be hard to apprehend God as He is. Instead, it is easy

to either slip into legalism or hopelessness. Indeed, no matter how hard one prays, the darkness

can seem impenetrable.

 

However, as I witnessed your steadfastness on this forum recently, something broke for me. It was if the the Holy Spirit was doing a great work in me as I watched you push and push against relentless

urgings to abandon your understanding of the goodness of God. The end result was that as you lifted Christ, He started drawing others to Himself.

 

Jesus is still Jesus--through hard times, dark times, sad times, and even during times of persecution.

Thank you so much Brother Charlie for shining the light on our glorious Lord!!

 

You have helped me regain my joy!

 

Blessings,

Lolly

Thank you Lolly and Meema. I claim no special ability or anything other than God`s love manifest through the death of His only Son For me, and you, and for all mankind.  All we need to do is accept that it was done for us, it was done for us when were sinners and enemies of God. We do continue to mess up portions of our lives, but God`s love, like His being, is infinite. Perfect, infinite love and grace just clear the air of confusion.

 

May God continue to bless us all, I know He will because He said He would,

 

Charlie
