Love That Doesn't Walk Away I have come to believe that love is different in the Kingdom. We live in a culture where relationships can become conditional. I'll remain close to you as long as we agree. As long as you don't disappoint me. As long as the relationship continues to meet my expectations. But that isn't how the Father has loved me. His love has pursued me through rebellion, failure, disappointment and seasons when I wasn't pursuing Him at all. And if I have received that kind of love, shouldn't it begin changing the way I love others? Kingdom love doesn't mean pretending differences don't exist. It doesn't require us to approve of every decision another person makes. There may even be circumstances when wisdom requires distance. But distance doesn't require us to stop loving. Love is different in the Kingdom. It is covenantal. We don't simply turn it on when relationships are comfortable and turn it off when they become difficult. There are people whom God has allowed into my life who now possess a piece of my heart. Circumstances may change. Geography may separate us. Disagreements may arise. Some may even choose to walk away. But love doesn't have to walk away with them. Nancy and I have learned that we can leave the door of our hearts open even when someone chooses, for whatever reason, not to walk through it. Perhaps that is one of the ways we begin to resemble our Father. He doesn't love us because we have performed correctly enough to earn a place in His heart. He loves because love is who He is. And having received that love, we are invited to give it away. Differences are secondary to covenant. ~Randy

What does the term "Intercessory Prayer" really mean? It's used a lot, but do we understand the significance of and how essential it is to the Body of Christ and for every Christ Follower? Check out this recording done recently which includes samples of some intercessory prayers:PC-090825.mp3drive.google.com
There are only two world views: • Either everything is a result of a cosmic accident, or • We are the result of a deliberate design by an Intelligent Designer. There are also four basic questions common to every individual: • Who am I? • Where did I come from? • Why am I here? • Where am I going when I die? We could spend hours in study and discussion about these and other questions as we contemplate our existence! More general questions might be “Why did God create the world? What is His original intent and how do we return there?” For some insights on these an other compelling truths, listen to these thoughts recorded recently:
SHOW UP AND BE PRESENT! Make no mistake about it, we are being watched by the world. They are looking at us to see what this Jesus is all about. Are we accurately reflecting Him and demonstrating His abiding presence in our lives.....or are they getting some other message when the see us and hear us? Listen to these thoughts on this topic recorded recently, then ask yourself how you look!
Our words are so important because they carry creative power! We would do well to choose and use our words wisely! Our words are like a sword!
