"Hill Country Thoughts:Walking Daily With The Lord -Thoughts, Hopes,and Living in the Real World" "Without having seen Him, you love Him; though you do not [even] now see Him, you believe in Him and exult {and} thrill with inexpressible and glorious (triumphant, heavenly) joy.
It sure has been an awesome day and I just want to thank you for all that you have done and are doing even now in my life. Thank you for the many friends that you have given me since moving here to Kennesaw.
You have open so many doors for me and you have put people into my life that have encouraged me in my writing, in what I share.
"Your welcome Paul. I delight in my children. In blessing them and listening to them. That is my desire. To spend time with each and everyone of them, to teach them to hear my voice in the midst of all that is going on."
You mean that you are really here? Even when we don’t feel your presence? When you seem to be so far away, you are here?
"Yes, I am closer than you think. I hear every heart beat, feel every pain, catch every teardrop. I am there to embrace my children, to tend to their wounds, heal every bruise of the heart, of the spirit. I am there to teach you to love those that hurt you, to forgive those who betrayed you. I am there to lift you up and draw you to my presence."
You are there at all times? When I cry out during the night? In the storms and in the valleys?
"Yes, it is during those times that you are being molded and shaped. That I am producing in you the character of my son so that you will reflect the reality of who He is and what He has done in you."
"In the trials, in the valleys your character is being built and you are becoming stronger in your walk. It is during these times that I reveal myself through that which you are going through."
Through the evening it seem like the lord carried on a conversation , not audible, but in my heart we communicated, we shared. He made me know that in these last two and a half years He has been remolding me and shaping me into that pen that can be used in His Hand to express His love and His heart!
That the battles this time around have caused me to flee to Him who is my source, my all in all. He that watches over me and reveals Himself in life, in the Word and in the people I have come into contact with.
He is indeed changing us and wooing us, if we will allow Him. He takes joy in our time with Him and He enjoys making Himself known, no matter where we are at!
Each one of you my friends, my fellow bloggers, writers and ministers. You are each unique and a vital part of what our Father is doing. He is raising a standard, and that standard is us. It is the Christ within, the dynamic power of the new life that we have in Him.
We have been given the privilege to be the light that shines, not to be hid under a bushel. We are not hermits for Christ!
Rather, we are called to be ourselves in Christ, to reveal Him in our everyday life to those around us. To share the simplicity of the light, the love and the hope that is in our Lord Jesus Christ.
Let the light, the hope of Christ, shine forth!
Till later,
Paul

Think on This:
“As we spend that time with the Lord, as we ponder His word, it will bring forth fruit in due season, and it will be life to others as we share those things that the Lord has made real in our lives as we walk with Him, as we go through the trials of life, the dealings, as we mature little by little, we will be able to share with others that which has been made real in our life, not theory but the life changing power of the word" - Paul
