Make no mistake; our Heavenly Father is always reaching out to us. We just might not recognize Him in the one doing the assisting. Amen.

The model for ALL relationships. Our God is our glue. Amen.

Close friendship. Family members and friends who have past from this life to the next draw us into a deeper intimacy with our God. We can talk to them, pray for them, and they in turn can intercede for us. And, they are outside of time. So it is never too late to do so. Amen.

Our Knowing Jesus and having a real relationship brings about our New life, bringing God's original plan into fruition. As family and friends of the earthly deceased we pray for their souls. As saints we intercede for family and friends. And that is why it is so important to remember our family and friends in heaven and talk with them and ask for their intercessions. Amen.

Death is inevitable. Many people try to avoid it or go fighting and screaming. It is the journey itself that prepares us for the end of this life and the beginning of the next. To walk with Jesus, to truly know Jesus, and want more of Jesus than this life allows is The Light at the end of the tunnel. Amen.

We have limits, God doesn't. We can go deeper and deeper into God's love, compassion, and mercy and never reach the bottom. It is endless and grows in richness. Keep going. Amen.

Bringing someone relief from something unpleasant. As the Father's children it is just a way of life. Amen.

Jesus calls us to do greater things then He did. We are suppose to do those in little ways. In our littleness, His BIGNESS is revealed. Amen.

God is always at work in our lives. He is the loving and giving Father. He encourages us to ask for the things we need, and for others. Equally powerful is His ungifting - the taking of things that create distractions such as our fears and worries, pains and sufferings, anxieties and stresses. He knows the burden of those and countless other things. We only have to ask. Amen.

God's work on us is subtle. The changes occur little by little. And they are life altering forever. Amen.
