We are seeing and experiencing many storms, signs and events, it’s all a matter of perspective how we respond. Some will see these storms and fear will be their guide, and their response.
Others will see the same storms,signs and events and will rise above the inclination of fear and walk in His Faith, from this they will gain a perspective that enables them to embrace Love and be expressions of Love, all in His Grace through His Faith.
There is a radical shift underway one from the age of man, and into the age of our Father and His Kingdom established on earth as it is in the Heavens.
He sets before us as always Life and Death, blessings and curses, all with the admonition and exhortation to choose Life, Life in Spirit and Truth.

The ‘Snake Bite and The Antidote
We all have the venom….
Scripture states that this age is under a foul and rebellious spiritual influence, and it only takes a causal observation to see the fruit of this deception.
Of this deception mans religious mindset is formed, this is displayed in various ways, all of which are devisive, religiosity is indeed devilish, we all are snake bitten and the venom of distortion and half truths can be found in us all…so what is our hope??
It’s exactly as our brother Paul stated…what a wretched man I am…and the remaining portion is our hope…
“Thanks be to God, through Jesus Christ our Lord!”
Yes it’s the workmanship of His hands that transitions us from death (our carnal snake bitten thinking) into His Life, Light and Love.
This is what Grace is, the workmanship of His hands inwardly, and His Mind becoming our thoughts.
It’s only as His mind becomes our plumb line, our nature that we begin the ascent out of the ‘snake pit’ of religiosity into the clear clean Living Water of the Spirit of Christ. As our brother Paul also stated…
“allow this Mind to be in you that was in Christ Jesus” this Mind is the Mind of our Father.
Blessings in Christ!
True Peace
Peace
Peace is the essence of the Prince of Peace, the embodiment of His Nature within our jars of clay.
Peace is to transcend the ways of man for as it is written ‘the way to Peace they know not”. Peace is the tranquility we find as we enter His rest, rest from striving, and rest as we abide in His presence drinking from the quiet waters He provides.
Peace is trust in action, knowing that nothing can ever separate us from His Love, which enables His Peace to flood our being.

Trailblazers and The Trailblazer….
The Trailblazer…
There are those who have blazed a trail before us, sojourners who walked the straight & narrow path, forsaking themselves in order to embrace The Light of Life, and know Him deeply, intimately.
The aged Apostle comes to mind, the one that others referred to as the one Jesus loved, it was Love that drew this beloved soul to aloneness, yet never alone. John’s words are filled with revelation, he like our brother Paul desired to know Christ and the power of His resurrection.
These two are among the many who have walked this earth and blazed a trail for us to follow in today. They were and are Living epistles all by the hand of our Father, today there is a great need for others to consider this calling and walk in like manner.
Our Lord set the benchmark and suffered mightily at the hands of men, yet knowing His walk was pleasing unto our Father.
Today as we ponder Light, Life & Love we hear His voice…softy yet sincerely saying…”follow Me”
Love…
Living Love
Love is the voice of all creation, Love is the purifying fire that reconciles all, in the Name of Love.
You cannot add nor subtract from Love, for Love is One, indivisible, complete, and whole.
Love is an atomic bomb to our human understanding, in that it’s so intense, so vast, so limitless, so beyond our nature.
Love is the Alpha and the Omega of all creation.
Love is the heartbeat of our Father.
Love touched this earth, walked the path of man, embraced humanity, the whole of humanity for one purpose, to reveal Love.
In all that is written, in all that has been said or ever will be said about wisdom, truth, or life, it can be summed up in one word…Love.
Love loved us first, and foremost, and Love desires that we learn to live, vibrantly, creatively, and wholly, in Love.
There is the unquestionable need for Faith, and that our hearts beat with Hope, all in the desire, to Live Love.
may it be so…
Living Faith, is Living by His Faith
Faith
Does not come by our works, thoughts or anything from us. Outside of Him we are dead, and the dead can do nothing.
Does not come by our obedience to the law, for this is death to Faith, for it is of the mind.
The human mind is not capable, nor never can be capable of Faith, for the mind is in complete opposition to Faith.
Faith is from outside of us, it is the gift of Life through grace.
It was Faith that raised Lazarus from his sleep. Faith that Abraham left his country and walked into the unknown to seek a city who’s foundation is God.
It was by Faith that Mary conceived, and by Faith that she treasured this in her heart. It was by Faith she knew the one she birthed, would birth her.
It is by Faith we shed the grave clothes of our beliefs, and walk into the obscure, the mystical realm of Spirit, where we find Life.
It is by Faith we move, moving beyond what we know, into a realm of obscurity, and peace, a realm of darkness that breaks into Light.
It is only by His Faith that we can know Atonement.
Only by His Faith that we find this to be true.
“Only goodness and Faithful Love will purse me all the days of my life, and I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.”
Psalm 23:6
No Longer I…
To Love, is to know Love…
Everything pertaining to Life flows from Love, His Love flows in grace. Grace awakens us to His Love. In His grace we begin to know Love. His heart is to see us living, moving and having our being established and anchored in Love, all through His grace.
Faith is awakening to His grace, and in His grace we walk by His Faith, constantly awakening to His provision, His strength, His abundant Life all set before us as a Love Feast.
The key is humility, for as soon as we use the deadly terms “I, me, my” we slam the door on His grace.
Paul’s “no longer I, but Christ” is to become a reality within us. His grace is more than sufficient, it’s our very life. Grace is His expression, welcoming us into His Nature, Love.
We will never outgrow our need for humility, and our need to become a New Creation in Christ.
His Word, is His Life, all in Spirit and Truth. Our Lords heart is to see us walking humbly into Him through His Faith.
“He hath shewed thee, O man, what good; and what doth the LORD require of thee, but to do justly, and to love mercy, and to walk humbly with thy God?”
Micah 6:8
Truth sets us free from ourselves and our foolish pride. And pride is more deadly to our walk than a pit vipers bite.
“For thus saith the high and lofty One that inhabiteth eternity, whose name is Holy; I dwell in the high and holy place, with him also that is of a contrite and humble spirit, to revive the spirit of the humble, and to revive the heart of the contrite ones.
Isaiah 57:15
Today if we hear His voice He is clearly expressing our tremendous need to walk by His grace into an ever deepening experience of His Truth.
“Beloved, I wish above all things that thou mayest prosper and be in health, even as thy soul prospereth. For I rejoiced greatly, when the brethren came and testified of the truth that is in thee, even as thou walkest in the truth. I have no greater joy than to hear that my children walk in truth”
1 John 1:2~4
