Relationship with Jesus!
We may think that we have many friends or perhaps we know them as associates, but are they really our close mates or buddies or are they out to get something from us?
The old Hymn opens with these words, 'What a friend we have in Jesus!
This is true, He really is the best and only friend that we can really have, if we seek, confess our failure and turn from it into being born-again as a new creation?
Now we will have that friendship, knowing that Jesus will intercede on our behalf to the Father! He will hear our prayers and guide us through the daily reading of His words in the Holy Bible!
Matthew 7:7-8, John 14:27, Revelation 3:19-20.

Domestic Abuse! Part-One.
Begins in the Church?
What a terrible thing to say, but this is a truth that many believers refuse to admit to at any level of counselling?
Many a minister goes home and hits his wife or husband for saying the wrong thing, looking or being friendly with you know who and so the list of failure continues while the veneer of respectability covers the cracks of keeping face!
Our society at this time in the west is very complex with relationships of every kind that are outside the confines of the Holy Scriptures! We live in a world of more self and so more sin comes with it, if people and believers would only admit these failings revival would break out everywhere!
Job 24:15-18, Proverbs 2:16-19, Isaiah 57:3-4, Matthew/Levi 5:28, Romans 7:3, Philippians 1:10, 1 Timothy 1:9-10.

Love and Forgiveness? Two.
We cannot live without Love!
As a species love is a key element to our existence and the world cannot do without it!
Animals mate by cycles that they have no control over, but we humans can make choices wither we want to or not?
The world craves love, but if we who claim a faith in Jesus, then we must put His love for others into action! Loving those the world reject, fellow believers and their situations, the homeless, family, friends and enemies alike?
We also must learn to forgive all of the above, since God forgave us our failings!
Proverbs 10:12, 17:9, Matthew 18:22, John 3:15-16, 1 Corinthians 13:13, Galatians 5:17-26, James 5;20, 1 Peter 4:2

Love and Forgiveness? One.
Lacking Today!
Forgiveness would help solve many issues today in our world and society, and it is lacking on an individual, national and idealistic level! Our world is full of rights, civil, political and judicial, but nothing ever really seems to get sorted?
People lack trust in the selfishness of a want, must have society that demands more and more tat? Tech is out of date the minute we use it, designer clothing is nothing more than some ones name of a third world produced product!
Where do we stand in all of this, with Gods dynamic faith?
Prayer is good and we need it, practicing charity and doing good works, volunteering does make a change!
But preaching the gospel and telling others about what Jesus has done for us is the best of all, because it sows seeds that will change lives, today, tomorrow, next year!!!!
Psalm 130:4, Ephesians 1:7, Colossians 1:14.
