Helping


Philippians chapter 2 verses 5-8.
"Your attitude should be the kind that was shown us by Jesus Christ, who, though He was God, did not demand and cling to His rights as God, but laid aside His mighty power and glory, taking the disguise of a slave and becoming like men. And He humbled Himself even further, going so far as actually to die a criminal's death on a cross."

To what lengths would you go to help someone know that they are cared for and loved?
   God so missed the love of people that He felt compelled to send Himself to earth in the form of a human. And so, Jesus was born to Mary and Joseph and God was with Jesus.
    Even from His early years Jesus would state clearly that He was God's child and that He was one with the Father. Wow! We go about our days, doing the things that we do, aging and missing those who are no longer here, but Jesus did not worry about those things. He had a focus and a plan. His whole life's purpose was to tell people about God's love for them.
   The almighty Creator of everything, wants people to have a relationship with Him. Can you wrap your mind around that? Just as Jesus is God's Son, so too are we. And God misses those who have wandered off. You may not have ever thought of yourself as being a lost child of God, but you are and He misses talking with you and holding you close.
   What? When did God ever hold me close or talk to me? The moment you were conceived, He has held you and protected you. Just as Jesus proclaimed God as His Father, you too can speak the same words. All you need to do in order to find out, is to talk to God and ask Jesus to help you find your way.
   The only reason you have not seen or heard this before is because you are too busy with your own thoughts and worries. Why would God want to help and love you? Because you are His child and He cares. You can continue to block Him and deny Him and let your life go by with whatever each day may bring. Or you can talk with Jesus and ask all the questions you want, He is waiting and wants you to come see for yourself that God is your heavenly Father.
   You may be someone who has had nothing but troubles and thinks your struggles are too hard to overcome, so you accept who you are and the circumstances your life has. Or you may be someone who has a good life with not so many worries, except how to deal with each issue as it comes along. God loves all people no matter what their situations may be. All you have to do is talk to Him.
   Just as Jesus has purpose, you too can trust in the promises of God and spend your life living in the wonderful world that God created for us to enjoy. It will be His love for you that fills your heart with love for Him. This world has so much more to offer than just living day to day. Let Jesus bring you home to God and the life you have been meant to have all along.
   You will find out how much God loves you and others will see your joy. And like Jesus, you may have the opportunity to help someone find their way to life with God.
   Thank you Father for Jesus and the joy of life with You. 😊

Luke chapter 2 verses 48-50.
His parents did not know what to think. "Son!" his mother said to Him. "Why have you done this to us? Your father and I have been frantic, searching for you everywhere."
"But why did you need to search?" Jesus asked. Didn't you realize that I would be here at the Temple, in My Fathers House?" But they did not understand what He meant.

John chapter 3 verse 8.
Jesus replied, "Just as you hear the wind but can't tell where it comes from or where it will go next, so it is with the Holy Spirit. We do not know on whom He will next bestow this life from heaven."

Genesis chapter 39 verse 2.
"The Lord greatly blessed Joseph there in the home of his master, so that everything he did succeeded."
