Thoughts for another day

Sept. 5, 2007

Today's verse: Mic. 6:3. My people, what have I done to you? How have I burdened you? Answer me. (KJV)
(Pls. read the above before you read further. Thanks)

Hello. Are you listening? This is your God speaking. Will you please tell Me, why you have no time for Me? Why do you run away from Me, when you need to run toward Me? Why are you bent down under your heavy load when I can easily free you from it if you approach Me?

Why are you scared to draw near, when many times that is the only option you have? My child tell why this behavior when I have clearly told you that I have loved you with an eternal love and that you can cast every burden upon Me. Each day, I send the sun to warm you and I send you rain that you may have water to drink. I have provided choice trees that you may have food in abundance; the blue canopy of the sky and the shimmering blanket of the sea so that you may behold and know that all these I created and found good for you. In all this, can’t you discern My eternal love for you? When you look at them, you see My power and honestly My beloved, it is available for you.

Well, I must also add that each day in the morning, I send my fresh mercies toward you because you sin so much and I just can’t bear sin. Besides, when you cover yourself with the Blood of My Son, how can I not wash you white as snow? I wait for the fragrance of your prayer to reach My nostrils, as I watch you from My Throne in Heaven, that I may stretch My hand toward you; but you know, I find them so futile, mere movement of your lips, whereas you are elsewhere. How bad I feel you know. What would you do if you were in My place?

Come now, My child, its still time for you to look toward Me. Return to Me that I may return to you. Long have I waited for your coming, now do not disappoint Me. I have done everything that you may come to Me; My only Son did I send to die, even when it broke My heart to see Him and His torn Body hanging in such pain on the coarse wood of the Cross. Whenever you behold the Cross, remember He raised His eyes and asked Me to forgive you and it was My pleasure to do it. If you still are angry on Me for some reason, tell Me why My child. What have I done to you. How have I hurt you, who are precious and carved on My palm. Answer Me.
