He Lives.

Jeremiah chapter 2 verse 9.
"But I will not give up---I will plead for you to return to Me, and will keep on pleading; yes, even with your children's children in the years to come!"

What is so important here on earth that grabs our attention so much, that we do not see God anymore? Is it just everyday living? Is it the desires we have? Why is it so easy to loose sight of God?
   Is He some type of poison that we need to totally avoid for fear of becoming infected? Thank You Father for never giving up. Even when people are so stubborn to hear your pleas,or to see the beauty of your world.
   Jesus is alive!!! To the people who are seeking God that is important and the most wonderful news that can ever be heard. To others they may be enjoying a chocolate Easter hunt. Maybe they are fuzzy minded and coming out of too much night before indulgence. Maybe it is the sporting game or the chance to sleep in and the big turkey dinner to come.
   Do you know what it means to be warm and fuzzy all over? It is a feeling of joy and happiness. So much so, that it can even cause our joy to bring on tears. The joy of making it. The joy of belonging. The joy of God and His love for you. The joy that Jesus is alive!!!
   If you do go to a church today, look around at the people who are there. You will see that joy, you will see something that is amazing. More powerful than anything this world can offer. For the love of God is the joy of Jesus being alive. Not just for today, but for now and forever.
   Jesus is eternal joy that God wants all people to feel. It sets you apart from the things that blind us. It is the clarity we long for. The answers to all questions. The peace that takes the confusion of life's problems away. God will not go away and He will not give up. Jesus is His promise of that and our way to step into life.
   Thank you Father for Jesus. Thank you Jesus for life with You. For the joy of God's love. 😊

"Be beautiful inside, in your hearts, with the lasting charm of a gentle and quiet spirit which is so precious to God."
