What Draws Us Close
By
h. lena jones
It’s exciting to read about
Jesus’ early ministry and miracles
Set out in the gospels, particularly Luke
His patient response when called upon
Unhurried, yet reassuring, confident, enduring
Even when rejected and asked to leave
No argument does He ever make!
If you and I were present back then
We would stick like glue to His side
Eager to learn, ready to feast
Upon His every word
We would marvel at the power
Of this gentle man
And long to be more like Him
We would probably be quick to defend Him
And point out to those who condemn Him
That even demons recognize Him
As the Holy One of God
So what is there to doubt
About His deity!
What draws us close to Jesus?
His positive, reassuring nature
His gentleness and strength
His genuine care and concern
But most of all
It’s because of His unconditional love
For each one of us…even though
We do not deserve it!
“…Thou art my beloved Son
in thee I am well pleased.”
(Luke 3:22)

Peace...that surpasses my understanding, in the midst of crises.
Hope of Glory...Jesus CHRIST, in me; proof I will share His glory one day!
Healing & Deliverance...Jesus, by Whom, every curse is reversed
Strength...I can do all things, through CHRIST, Who strengthens me
Love, love, love...Unfailing Love.
This could last for hours, Precious Lena, so I will just say thank you for your beautiful heart and faithfulness to our LORD.
I love you, my dear, dear Sister. xo Rhonda

Knowing that He is the One True Most High God, Creator of all, and everything else is beneath His feet.
Knowing He hears and understands every problem, and brain fart, we have, and He sends the answer even before we ask.
The list is extensive ... these were the first three that came to mind.
Great write from a woman of unwavering faith ...
