|  | | Heart to Heart: Meeting With God in the Lord's Prayer
"Father." With a single word, Jesus Christ ushered His disciples into a new relationship with their Creator. With a single prayer, He opened a door into the heart of God and called men and women to walk through it. In this highly engaging and personal work, Rachel Starr Thomson takes readers on a journey through the most powerful prayer of all time-straight to the heart of the Father.
u>Excerpt/b>/u>
The fact is, the kingdom of God runs totally counter to anything we have learned growing up in the world. Jesus, the Servant-King, is the heart and center of His realm, and His character defines its laws and principles. There is no room in the kingdom for our self-serving games, our divisions and petty offenses. The King is love, and oneness, and grace. In the world, we preserved ourselves by fear and cunning; Jesus calls us to trust and childlikeness. In the world, we value possessions and position; in the kingdom, we value people and poverty of spirit.

What the world needs is more of Jesus, and the way it is going to see more of Him is if we as Christians love Him more-know Him better-believe and trust in Him with all our hearts. This collection of essays is specially written for God's "Samuel Generation": every believer who wishes to know and do the heart and mind of their Father in Heaven. In a highly personal and encouraging style, they bring a fresh and convicting look at topics such as grace, love, trusting in dark times, unity, and the character of Jesus Christ.
In the Morning/b>
by Rachel Starr Thomson
Chapter from i>Letters to a Samuel Generation/i>
One of these years I plan to start a new tradition. Every year in February or March—shortly before the visible coming of spring, while the world is still cold and grey—I'll go out early in the morning, light a bonfire, worship my God, and wait for the sun to rise. The purpose? By faith to welcome in the spring, celebrate morning, and look to the rising of the Sun of Righteousness.
When we first turn our hearts over to God, the whole world seems to bloom into summer. Pastur | |  | | The Romany Epistles: Taerith
