 | According to Jesus, what does it mean to be loved by God? |
There is only reward in Gods love. To be loved by God is to:
- have the previlege to receive God and the Living Christ in your daily life,
- become aware of His all too Holy presence and to be be able to talk to Him as a child speaks to a parent,
- know that you are His child and that you have eternal life,
- know that you are loved by God and
- know that God will always be there for you, no matter what the circumstances are.
Amazing how much we receive for so little we have to give. All He asks from us is that we love Him, that we keep His commandments, that we believe/have faith in Him, that we abide in His love and that we listen to His voice to guide us in our daily lifes. If you do this in your life, you will taste what it realy is to live in the love of our Farther. Thank you for the Cross, Father. In Jesus name, Amen. By: Tobias Marais

When I left a period of relative stability in my life; studying a bachelor of arts and working as a clerk, to mental illness and unemployment, my self confidence and beliefs fell to an all time low. I went into a therapeutic community for 20 months, at Richmond Fellowship. No one from the Anglican churches I had been attending seem to be able to help. God gave me a verse, when I went into respite at an Anglican Convent. Matthew 11:28: If you are tired from carrying heavy burdens, come to me and I will give you rest. Take the yoke I give you. Put it on your shoulders and learn from me. I am gentle and humble, and you will find rest. This yoke is easy to bear, and this burden is light. I finished my bachelor of arts. I also learnt from the time in the convent that the priniciples of permaculture and ecological sustainability are written in God`s agricultural laws in the bible. God believed in animals free ranging and that crops should be rotated and some field rested. Every 50 years there is a huge celebration, the jews don`t work and all debts are forgiven. I would study the jewish law and moses, when I went to be reborn again in a baptist church. My old life of self reliance was disappearing and a new life of reliance on God and discipleship was beginning. God`s spirit is love, happiness, peace, patience, kindness, gentleness and self control. And scripture warns don`t be conceited or make others jealous by claiming to be better than they are. I had to learn to leave a human spirit of immorality, debauchery, worshipping idols of materialism, jelousy, anger, selfishness, witchcraft, coveting and envy. God teaches us to use our resources to acheive goals. Don`t compare your life to others, you will always fail. Although Apostle Paul admitted it was only human to be in constant struggle between the flesh and the spirt.By: sharron hill
