The Daily Ricky

I’m reading a book right now and some of the things I read, I find hard to swallow.

It’s not that I don’t believe it happened, I just have a different slant on it. That’s what I like about God, He meets us where we are.

I heard a sermon the other day and I must say it stirred my heart. A young man preached it with astonishing conviction, you could tell; he believed what he spoke.

It was about God meeting you where you are and no matter what you have done, His love never changes.

People need to understand, His love for us was settled on the first day of creation. He hates the sin but, loves His creation

So wherever you are and whatever condition you are in, you are loved beyond your wildest dreams

His love goes beyond our understanding, no matter what has happened to you in the past, He loves you.

Our mind says no one could love me, look at all I’ve done but, Jesus goes beyond our beliefs and stretches out His arms and welcomes us in.

Since being in the ministry, I’ve seen all manner of mankind born again and each one was forgiven, it did not matter what they had done.

I’m so glad, I know how wrecked I was and a loving God took me in.

So why keep running, open your eyes and let Jesus love you through the pain, the hurt, confusion, bitterness or whatever

I’ve been born again since I was 14 and not once have I been forsaken!

You may be let down by mortal mankind but, Jesus will never leave.

I read a story long ago, about a prisoner of war in Viet Nam; he was alone and dying far from home. Then one day he remembered a Bible story that his grandmother used to tell him. He bowed down and cried before God, Help!! That’s all it took, suddenly he had a new found reason for living, he had the same living condition, same food and same torture but now he had Jesus

In our lives a lot of times we cry for help, He hears us and sees each tear

Lord, we glorify Your name and pray that people would accept Your love, right where they are.

Amen!!
