| I SAID: That's harsh don't you think? GOD: Hear my words again. The ones in 1John 2:4. Especially the last part of the verse. "The man says, 'I know him,' but does not do what he commands is a liar and the truth is not in him." I SAID: Ouch. GOD: Yes...ouch. I died for those words. I SAID: I Know. GOD: I also died to give you the power you need to put these words into practice. I SAID: I'm not that strong, God. GOD: I know. I made you, remember? I realize you're weak. I know your temptations but I can equip you with everything you need to become all you need to be. I SAID: You know what this means, don't you? There may be some Friday nights I'm home alone. GOD: No, not alone. I've promised to never leave you. I would love to spend this Friday night with you. I SAID: Is this for real? GOD: So real I shed my blood. I SAID: But...Friday night...alone with GOD? GOD: Oh, my child, the things I want to do in your life. The dreams I want to give you! The vision I want to create with you. I have so much in store for you. Your mind couldn't comprehend if I told you everything right now. I SAID: Wow. For me? That's kind of exciting! GOD: For you. You're that special. I dream big dreams for you. I SAID: I'm pretty good at dreaming too,God. GOD: Yes you are. But my dreams are even bigger than your imagination. Check out Ephesians 3:20-21. I SAID: Okay, here it is: "Now to him who is able to do immeasurably more than all we ask or imagine, according to his power that is at work within us, to him be the glory in the church and in Christ Jusus throughout all generations, for ever and ever! Amen." GOD: And what about Jeremiah 29:11-13? |
