In my last message, I said that I would be sharing some more about the Holy Spirit, who is the very "Presence" of God here on Earth. He came to abide with us for many different reasons, and one of them is so that He can have a personal relationship with us. Well, guys and gals, I can tell you for a fact, that it takes "child-like" faith to fellowship with Him! Jesus knew this and that is why He told us that we would have to come as a little child to partake of the Kingdom of God here on earth. How does God's Word describe the Kingdom of God? I know that all of you know the answer to that question, but let's take time to think about what it says........The Kingdom of God is "righteousness, peace and joy in the Holy Spirit". Are we getting some "revelation" here? I will be sharing more about this in another message, but today, I want to talk about the "child-like" faith that we need to have.
Think about this........little children talk to Jesus and pray to Him, and they don't use words like "thee and thou", etc. They don't have to see Him "visibly" to believe that He is real and that He hears them. They just talk to Him like they talk to their invisible playmates.... (didn't you do that when you were a little child?) I know that I did, and my children did, and my grandchildren did. We know now, that those invisible friends were imaginary. However, we can use our "child-like faith" to talk to and fellowship with the Holy Spirit, and even though He also is "invisible", He is not "imaginary"...He is real!!
I will continue with this, hopefully tomorrow. I am late getting this one out, because I have had problems most of this week. I thought it was my computer, but it has been with my on-line service.
Have a Blessed Day! In His Love and in His Presence, Luanne
