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

The gathering last night (March 2, 2016) was so beautiful!! The testimonies were wonderful, and the preaching was so full of food and love. I love the beauty of holiness! I felt like a sponge and could feel every word just soaking into my soul with no restrictions or blockage, just pure, clean truth filling me up. Food that will sustain your life forever!\u00a0 There is nothing like fellowship in God, with him and his people. Life-flowing blood that cleanest us from all sin and keeps us alive.<\/span><\/p>\n

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

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

What a meeting last night. I loved what you said about you not getting yourself here!! None of us did. God told Israel they were going to possess the land not because of their righteousness but because of the wickedness of the other nations.<\/span><\/p>\n

This week Sue and I were driving by a church here in Louisville. This place always had a really good preschool program. We had looked at it for Jacob years ago, and it was always full.\u00a0 As we drove by, I was looking at the playground, the spirit spoke to me, “I could have put you there.”\u00a0 Man, what do you do with that?\u00a0 The love that has been shown to us! When the Spirit said those words, I could feel it go through my body like a bouncing ball of humility. I didn’t do anything to deserve this! I love this truth because it has loved me!!<\/span><\/p>\n

John,<\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> I’m very thankful for last night’s meeting as well. It feels so good to feast on the food. It is real and lasting in this crazy world!<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> Here are a few things I wrote down from last night while I had a chance:<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> All our hope is in Jesus. Our heart is sewn together with him. Jesus has determined everything already. Jesus is our hope, NOT this world. Surrender to life!<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> Jesus is IT. God gets “it” in your heart and then there is peace. People talk against you, but it doesn’t change anything because it’s already settled in our hearts.<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> Pastors in Christianity have things to puff them up \u2013 their baptism, their communion, their doctrine to join the church. The truth is what is of God- it is His baptism, His communion, etc. These things do not puff us up. These things give glory to God!<\/span><\/span>
\n
\n<\/span> What wonderful thoughts! I love the simplicity of the truth.<\/span><\/span>
