Hi John,<\/span><\/p>\n

I went to sleep last night pondering on all the things we read yesterday in the \u201cGod had a Son before Mary did<\/a><\/span>” book and woke up this morning feeling so grateful and thankful for the spirit God has put in my heart to love him and his truth.\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0I feel more thankful than ever for what the Son of God did for us when he came down to this earth to make a way for us to partake of his and his Fathers kind of life.<\/span><\/p>\n

I feel more desperate and dependent on him then I ever have before, there is nothing that is worth anything outside of his spirit that he has shed forth in our lives. We cannot live right, we cannot think right, we cannot judge right, we cannot treat people right outside of the spirit that his Son paid the price for us to have and trust in. \u00a0Everything outside of that spirit is sin and death! \u00a0My heart yearns\u2019 for his sweet holy spirit to keep me and guide me every day.<\/span><\/p>\n

We have been going through some really tuff times as of lately in our body. \u00a0When I got up this morning, I wanted to read something,\u00a0so I got on the Going to Jesus web site and picked out a tract to read. The tract I picked out was tract\u00a0<\/span>\u00a0#7:<\/span>
\n \u201cStand Still In Jordan<\/a><\/span>\u201d. \u00a0What an opportunity we have to stand still in Jordan and trust and have faith in what God is doing in our lives right now! \u00a0The waters are raging over the banks and the current is roaring by at great speed, and yet all we have to do is obey his voice and wait on our salvation.<\/span><\/p>\n

He alone has our destiny in his hands and is ready to meet all our needs when it is time. Oh what faith I feel in my heart in his spirit and his guidance in these times. It\u2019s like you have said, Pastor John, \u201cWhat does God want us to do?\u201d \u00a0That is the only thing that matters; that is the only place to be. All we can do is wait to hear his voice and move when it is time. \u00a0God help us to be ready!!<\/span><\/p>\n

We don\u2019t want to be as some of the Israelites were when God brought them out into the wilderness from Egypt. \u00a0They said, \u201cHe has brought us out here to die!\u201d He has not brought us out here to die; He has brought us out here to Live!!! And live more abundantly! \u00a0And we have lived, and will continue to do so as long as we put all our trust in him. What a joy and pleasure it was to gather with everyone and read this week end. <\/span><\/p>\n

Thank you, <\/span>John.<\/span><\/p>\n
