Jesus is
always telling the truth…and He knows how much we need the Helper, the Holy
Spirit. He could only be in one place at one time. The Holy Spirit is everywhere—within
all believers. Just as the Holy Spirit “convicts” the world including Christian
of sin, He convicts us of righteousness…right living. I love to stand back and
watch Christian greet each other with warm smiles, handshakes, hugs…and as I
recently experienced in Portugal, kisses on each cheek. It just warms my heart—fills
me with joy—to see people showing and sharing their love. Jesus told His
disciples over and over, love one another. It was a command, not a suggestion.
But love has to come from the heart in order to be sincerely felt. Love is the
key to life—without it judgment would be severe. It will be disappointing for
those who don’t know Jesus, the Father, or the Holy Spirit—who don’t know love.
They will be caste away from the Father for eternity. Jesus spoke about people
who are pure in heart, or righteous, in His Sermon on the Mount…Blessed are the pure in heart, for they
shall see God. Matthew 5:8. We will be judged as it is written in Romans
14:12, each one will have to give an
account of himself to God. How do you feel about that? Are you ready?
RSVP: Jesus was preparing His disciples for His departure
from this earth…and for the coming of the Holy Spirit, who would convict people
of sin and righteousness. How will you respond to Jesus about this message?
Prayer ~ Jesus, I need the Holy Spirit to help me
live a life worthy of You. Without some encouraging support I’m afraid that I
will fail miserably in judgment. Help me to share and show Your love to others
that they would also be encouraged to live a righteous life…holy unto You.
Happy Day--Juana and Jeana—Today and Always.
