The Threshold

God’s familial loving peace opened my eyes.

That first, solitary eye opening second, the awareness, the presence of God is earth shattering.

”Father, good morning Dad, my Dad, I love You.”

Eternal life is new in a second. The family reunion is made.

Holding My Fathers love in thought, knowing My Comforters love within, my Lord ‘s loving sacrifice is praised, “I love you Lord Jesus.”

Praying “Guide my thoughts with Yours, help me to consider my words with Yours, direct my feet in Your ways.”

Standing, reckoning the aches, small stepping the hurts, shuffling into a consciousness of blessings in a life designed by my Creator.

A loud joyful holler “I’m a child of God” disbands and blows away the troops of arthritis wakening with claims of weighty pains.

Going forward exclaiming the marvels of being a Christian, born again with the inexhaustible grace of God, praises are lifted for Christ, in a body, the house I live in.

A house without walls with ears that limit my volume of praise.

Gracious, gracious Father God, I love you out loud and whisper up close in the quiet we have together.

Take me today God my Holy Spirit fully into the good works that You have equipped me for.

Light my way Lord Jesus, so others can see Your saving light.

Ephesians 2:8-10 For by grace you have been saved through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God,

Verse 9 not works, lest anyone should boast.

Verse 10 For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.

Ephesians 6:24 Grace be with all those who love our Lord Jesus Christ in sincerity.

Through Christ, in Christ, with Christ and Jesus Christ alone we are able to love God who first loved us. God is at peace with us in Jesus name. Amen
