Not Letter, But Love

What kind of heart do you carry with yourself as you read the Word of God? The heart you carry determines the reactions that will unfold in your life, after reading the Word. Some people bring an accused heart into reading the Word, knowing that the Word has said it all, yet she is helpless in achieving it. What she should do she does not, what she should not do she does all the times. Instead of getting comfort from the Word that spells love to the heart, the accused heart causes her to unable receive grace, assurance and support from God. God wants us to restore the heart of sonship as we read the Word. He desires us to enjoy being a child of God, and thus enjoy full freedom and reconciliation with God as we seek to find Him (and His directions) through His Word. The Word is not emphasizing the set of laws to uphold but more importantly, the love of God that covers all multitude of sins. Therefore, as we read it with a heart of Child, the love that outflows from God's Word will renew and deepen our love for God increasingly, until we desire to be holy and blameless, just like Christ. Dear brethren, don't be discouraged by our failures. Instead, fight the residual lukewarmness and doubts towards God's love by knowing the love of God the way it should be, not the way we want it to be. The letter of God spells love in all its core. Taste the love.

Marriage: God’s Command, Concession and Calling

 

Everyone has different marital status and corresponding struggles. Thus, we need to understand God’s command, concession and calling with regards to marriage. Even when dealing with the thorny issue of divorce and remarriage, we also have to find answers and strength in God to submit to Him. Yet, because God leads you by the principle of love and “all things work for the good”, there is surely His perfect will in whichever marital situation you are in right now. Therefore, seek out His love, purpose and guidance in your current marital situation.
