I WILL NEVER...

JEREMIAH 32:40

I will make an everlasting covenant with them: I will never stop doing good to them, and I will inspire them to fear me, so that they will never turn away from me.

Each week I have been taking a verse from the Father's Love Letter to share and allow us to soak in His LOVE from HIS Letter to Me & YOU: the Bible. There are 52 verses in the FLL!

(FLL will represent Father's Love Letter). To see the letter in full you can scroll down and read or listen & watch a video of it. Or just go to the original site by clicking on FLL above in red.

So far I have covered these lines & the verses from FLL:

01. My Child...
02. You may not know me, but I know everything about you
03. I know when you sit down and when you rise up
04. For I am familiar with all your ways
05. Even the very hairs on your head are numbered
06. For you were made in my image
07. In me you live and move and have your being, for you are my offspring
08. I knew you even before you were conceived
09. I chose you when I planned creation
10. You were not a mistake, for all your days are written in my book
11. I determined the exact time of your birth and where you would live
12. You are fearfully and wonderfully made
13. I knit you together in your mother's womb
14. And brought you forth on the day you were born
15. I have been misrepresented by those who don't know me
16. I am not distant and angry, but am the complete expression of love
17. And it is my desire to lavish my love on you
18. I offer you more than your earthly father ever could
19. For I am the perfect father
20. Every good gift that you receive comes from my hand
21. For I am your provider and I meet all your needs
22. My plan for your future has always been filled with hope
23. Because I love you with an everlasting love
24. My thoughts toward you are as countless as the sand on the seashore
25. And I rejoice over you with singing

So now, today's verse...

26. I will never stop doing good to you

In case, there is no more written by me, please click on the above & read the wonderful FLL devotional to continue being blessed. I have these in draft for me to add as I personalize each one and pre-scheduled them. If there is no more, it is because I am not connected to internet yet.

This graphic of the road with these words and Jeremiah 32 really speaks to me...it's a long road ahead of me once more...keep me in your prayers. May the FLL devotional bless you.

Heavenly Father,

Thank You for the covenant and that it is everlasting, which means it still includes us to this day. WOW! I am so thankful & honored to know that promise.

I claim this for my adult adopted children & their families and my husband as You draw them to You. For these & each person LORD, who does not yet know You or Your AMAZING GRACE & LOVE, I pray that You may inspire them to fear You & turn their hearts toward You for You are coming soon but Your desire is that NONE...that means NO ONE will perish but we must be about doing our part. Please LORD, tarry long enough so our LOVED ONES may come to You & that we in turn will LIVE to bring others to You & Your Kingdom.

May we reflect Your Love. May Your Grace shine through us & all that You have done for us & them. The road & the journey is long & hard but those that know You, will walk with a pace that leads us to eternity & into Your loving arms.

Thank You & Praise Your Name! And I pray that You will never stop doing good in my path and along my path in Jesus Name! I love You!

Eternally Your Daughter,

Peggy

luvmy4sons said...: I pray your traveling is going well. I think so often we attribute human qualities to our Lord...thinking evil of Him when things are not "quite so" in our world. I love "I will never stop doing good to you" Awesome! Hope your road is a little shorter today! Blessings! Leslie; July 17, 2009 11:29 PM

"MY IDENTITY IN CHRIST"

WHO I AM IN CHRIST

THROUGH HIS EYES ... and HIS WORD

Declare these daily! Claim & believe them for they are written in His Love letter to you (the part in parentheses comes from the Bible).

Renamed by me as "The Tree" instead of "The Bell" because I did not have the shape of the bell but a tree when I finished.

THE 'TREE'I KNOW WHO I AM

I am God's child (John 1:12)

I am Christ's friend (John 15:15)

I am united with the Lord(1 Cor. 6:17)

I am bought with a price(1 Cor. 6:19-20)

I am a saint (set apart for God). (Eph. 1:1)

I am a personal witness of Christ. (Acts 1:8)

I am the salt & light of the earth (Matt.5:13-14)

I am a member of the body of Christ(1 Cor 12:27)

I am free forever from condemnation ( Rom. 8: 1-2)

I am a citizen of Heaven. I am significant ( Phil.3:20)

I am free from any charge against me (Rom. 8:31 -34)

I am a minister of reconciliation for God(2 Cor.5:17-21)

I have access to God through the Holy Spirit (Eph. 2:18)

I am seated with Christ in the heavenly realms (Eph. 2:6)

I cannot be separated from the love of God( Rom.8:35-39)

I am established, anointed, sealed by God (2 Cor.1:21-22)

I am assured all things work together for good (Rom. 8: 28)

I have been chosen and appointed to bear fruit (John 15:16 )

I may approach God with freedom and confidence (Eph. 3: 12 )

I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me (Phil. 4:13)

I am the branch of the true vine, a channel of His life (John 15: 1-5)

I am God's temple (1 Cor. 3: 16 ). I am complete in Christ (Col. 2: 10)

*I am hidden with Christ in God (Col. 3:3). I have been justified

(Romans 5:1) I am God's co-worker (1 Cor.. 3:9; 2 Cor 6:1).

I am God's workmanship(Eph. 2:10 ) I am confident

that the good works God has begun in me

will be perfected.(Phil 1: 5)

I have been redeemed

and forgiven (Col. 1:14).

I have been adopted

as God's child*

(Eph 1:5)

I am rooted

and established

in Christ

(Eph 3:17)

I belong

to God

Do you

know

who you are!?

[this is suppose to be in the shape of a bell but the last part* did not fit that way, 2 verses together from star to star, to see it correctly go here.

When I was done the best I could form it, it looked more like a tree & I added the last verse above & the 3 verses below, for the TREE, whereas usually it tells you to "keep this bell ringing -pass it on"]

I will say,

"Keep this TREE planted & growing,

rooted & established in Christ"

Pass it on

The fruit of the righteous is a TREE of LIFE

and s/he who wins souls is wise.

Proverbs 11:30

BE LIKE THIS!

S/He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season and whose leaf does not wither. Whatever s/he does prospers.

Psalm 1:3

And I pray that YOU, being rooted and established in love,

may have power, together with all believers, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love

that surpasses knowledge that YOU may be filled to the measure of all

fullness of God.

Ephesians 3:17b (NIV) emphasis mine

"The LORD bless you and keep you;

the LORD make His face shine upon you

and be gracious to you;

the LORD turn His face toward you and give you peace.."

Numbers 6:24-26

"Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding. In all your ways acknowledge Him and

He will direct your path." (Proverbs 3:5,6)

DO YOU KNOW JESUS?

I believe that my MAZES, MESSES, & MIRACLES ...aMAZING GRACE would not be complete without offering this GREAT opportunity to MEET my BEST FRIEND FOREVER: Jesus Christ.

I feel that the best way is to start with Proverbs 31 Ministry: Just Click and be linked

http://proverbs31.gospelcom.net/doyouknowJesus/doYouKnowJesus.php
Conoces Jesucristo o quieres conocerlo (con un clic aqui para saber como y conocerlo mejor!!!) Espanol-Proverbios 31.

If you knew Jesus, but gave up your faith or following Him, perhaps it's time to restart your life. He's waiting with open arms.

If you never knew Him as Lord and Savior, please accept my invitation, and follow the steps Proverbs 31 suggests.

If you've struggled throughout your life, or just decided that you can do it on your own, surrender and try Jesus, it's never too late!
