John 20:31 “But these are written that you may believe that JESUS is The Messiah, the Son of GOD, and that by believing you may have life in HIS NAME!”
First Love’s Renewal!
HIS Love and affectionate, graceful Attention embraces those “CHRISTian”
in name AND in deed.
So because of GOD’s call heard regathering children, there meet we each another; both bowed at HIS feet.
For those then first hearing our FATHER’s compelling, what Joy! What extreme… which no other can match!
So may we, like them, mirror CHRIST in each instant….no matter how old we become! Therefore, Act!
As HIServant now older but remembering and ever reinACTing that moment when I first heard HIS voice,

Devotional: Psalm 51:12 (Brenton Septuagint Translation)
“Restore to me the joy of THY salvation: establish me with THY directing SPIRIT!”
1 Peter 1:8 “Though you have not seen HIM, you love HIM. Though you do not now see HIM, you believe in HIM and rejoice with joy that is inexpressible and filled with glory…”
1 Thessalonians 2:13 “And we also thank GOD continually because, when you received the WORD of GOD,
…which you heard from us, you accepted it not as a human word, but as it actually is, the WORD of GOD, which is indeed at work in you who believe!”
Jeremiah 15:16 “YOUR words were found, and I ate them, and YOUR words became to me a joy and the delight of my heart, for I am called by your name, O LORD, GOD of hosts!”
When we recall that glorious moment of first hearing the voice of our FATHER, doesn’t it rekindle that instant once again?
I am grateful for a clear memory which can vividly replay the Joy I felt then and experience now!
Live then with that passion you first felt, when you met JESUS! Hallelujah!
Amen and amen!
