Love Letter
Wednesday, March 23, 2005
There are times on this countinuing journey of mine, that Deliever takes me aside and teaches me things I could never learn on my own. Last night, he revealed to me things in a letter He gave to me. He revealed once again His love in a message He has sent to His father the King. Here's a copy of that letter He sent to His father:
"I am writing not only for these disciples but also for all who will ever believe in me because of their testimony. My prayer for all of them is that they will be one, just as you and I are one, Father – that just as you are in me and I am in you, so they will be in us, and the world will believe you sent me. "I have given them the glory you gave me, so that they may be one, as we are – I in them and you in me, all being perfected into one. Then the world will know that you sent me and will understand that you love them as much as you love me.
Father, I want these whom you've given me to be with me, so they can see my glory. You gave me the glory because you loved me even before the world began! "O righteous Father, the world doesn't know you, but I do; and these disciples know you sent me. And I have revealed you to them and will keep on revealing you. I will do this so that your love for me may be in them and I in them."
This is the ultimate love letter, one that I hope you'll soak in. This deed that my friend is writing about, "I will do this so that your love for me may be in them and I in them", is His sacrifice for us. I'll explain a little bit more later. Just let those words soak in.
Til I post again...
