Now We Have Something
Offer Others
ex.
"Yesterday, I experienced God in such a way. that I knew He deeply liked me, and I knew He loved me deeply."
There is no greater joy or exhilaration."
"I have to re-experience this every day."
- Now we have something truly valuable to offer others. (Powerful evangelism)
- How easily the human heart forgets truths and memories.
- Our MINDS know God Love Us. But our HEARTS are possibly not sure He doesTODAY?
Yesterdays experience:
"God truly likes and loves me."
"Really?" The devils of Hell and our own souls ask.
"Yeah, but you are one of those lukewarm, half-hearted Christian sons (or daughters) that takes the Lord for granted, and doesn't treat Him that nicely. . . That kinda act despicably. . .
That aren't that fun to be around. . .

Reminder:
God is FULL OF VORACIOUS LOVE
for ANY PERSON
That is:
TRYING TO DO WHAT IS RIGHT 24/7.
Aborigine. . . Lost jungle native. . . non-church-goer. . . a person born under a pagan religion or raised under a greatly flawed religion or denomination, etc.
GOD LOOKS AT THE HEART.

Proof from Human Nature:
"Can you imagine having a son or daughter, that, on their own initiative, Constructs, Studies, and Reviews a notebook with a list containing everything you want them to do?"
. . . Make their bed, keep their room clean, keep their clothes off the floor, brush their teeth, eat right, sleep right, do their homework and chores cheerfully and on time and carefully. . . constantly being nice and looking out for their siblings and other people. . .
SO YOU NEVER WOULD HAVE TO NAG
AND WRESTLE WITH THEM ALL THE TIME?
THIS KIND OF CHILD WOULD BLOW EVERYBODYS' MIND!
WHO HAS EVER HEARD
OF SUCH A SON OR DAUGHTER?
WE CAN BE THAT KIND OF CHILD TO GOD.
(from Train for God - Tool #3)
We can remind ourselves
that God is obviously
IN-LOVE with People
who treat Him like this.
_______
Even Sons or Daughters
that know Him
Can be not-that-fun to be around
who can treat Him casually
and take Him for granted.
How could we live
with ourselves being that kind
of Son or Daughter?
