October 2 Devotional

Dear friends, 
Below is a verse from Wesley’s “Jesus Lover of My Soul”.  Jesus, our first love, now and forever more.  Be blessed in knowing that the time and energy you spend nurturing your relationship with Him, helps sustain all of your other relationships.  Hugs, Scott
  1. Thou, O Christ, art all I want,
    More than all in Thee I find;
    Raise the fallen, cheer the faint,
    Heal the sick, and lead the blind.
    Just and holy is Thy Name,
    Source of all true righteousness;
    Thou art evermore the same,
    Thou art full of truth and grace.

Never Take For Granted My intimate nearness.  Marvel at the wonder of My continual Presence with you.  Even the most ardent human lover cannot be with you always.  Nor can another person know the intimacies of your heart, mind, and spirit.  I know everything about you-even to the number of hairs on your head.  You don’t need to work at revealing yourself to Me.

Many people spend a lifetime or a small fortune searching for someone who understands them.  Yet I am freely available to all whocall upon My Name, who open their hearts to receive Me.  This simple act of faith is the beginning of a lifelong love story.  I, the Lover of your soul, understand you perfectly and love you eternally.

Luke 12:7 7Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don’t be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows.

John 1:12 
12Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God—

Romans 10:13 
13for, “Everyone who calls on the name of the Lord will be saved.”
