Abandonment

Dear Servant, Humans fear so many things. When sin entered the world the peace of living daily with me was shattered and fear began to reign in men’s hearts. One fear that spreads like a cancer is fear of abandonment. You have seen it on this earth, a child abandoned by its parents in a trash can, […]

Dependence

My child, One of the great struggles you have in following me is dependence versus independence. Your culture teaches you that one of the highest values in life is independence. Being completely free from having to depend on anyone for anything is the unspoken goal. The problem is my kingdom teaches utter dependence as one […]

Practice

Dear Servant, It is a generally accepted truism in most human performance activities, like sports, that you only play as good as you practice. Time spent with the instrument, getting each note right, time spent with the coach, mastering each skill until it becomes second nature is what will allow you to perform when the […]

God of All

Dear Servant Yes, I am the God of all people. I know there are many who do not acknowledge me or even believe I exist, but I am their God too. I made them, provided my earth for them and they will ultimately answer to me someday. Imagine a passenger on a plane who suddenly […]

Father

Dear Servant, I know you have seen it before, the joy of the father who hears an infant speak his first words. The child utters “da da” and the father’s heart fills with joy. No one who sees that moment stops to question the child’s understanding or motivation. No one points out the fact that […]

Unnecessary

Dear child, You are completely unnecessary for any plans or works of my kingdom. You do not bring anything that I do not already possess. All material wealth you bring I already own. All words you can say about my kingdom and work, I have already expressed better and more completely through my Holy Spirit. […]

Treasured

Dear Servant, Many in your day collect antiques. They look through attics and scrounge through the trash, looking for a prize they can put on display. Some of those antiques have been poorly treated, in rough condition, far from the intent of their maker. Despite the marks, they are proudly displayed because they are beautiful in […]

Present

Dear child, While I relish the dedicated times of prayer and worship, when you read my word and seek my guidance, I want you present with me all the time. My gift of the Holy Spirit is a gift of constant presence. I am with you all day and every day. No matter the circumstance, […]

Trustworthy

My son, It is always a struggle to trust me and my goodness. The sinful world you live in always seeks to lead you astray. Satan will always whisper in your ear that this time I am leading you down the wrong path, that this time I am leading you to disaster when the path […]

Servant

Dear Servant, What does it mean to be my servant? My son (who took on the form of a servant, even though he was The Son) said it so well when teaching his disciples. He told them that in my kingdom the first shall be last and if you want to be the greatest in […]
