WE ARE CALLED TO BE ON A WALK OF FAITH WITH OUR LORD AND SAVIOR AND COMING KING, JESUS, AND TO GROW IN OUR FAITH OF HIS AMAZING GRACE AND LOVE ON THE CROSS

HERE IS WHAT I HAVE BEEN REFLECTING ON THIS MORNING, WHICH DID NOT START OUT EASY YET IS GETTING BETTER AS THE DAY MOVES ALONG: WE ARE HERE ON THIS EARTH TO LEARN ABOUT AND GROW CLOSER AND NEARER IN OUR WALK OF FAITH WITH LORD JESUS (AND WE ARE ALL CALLED TO BE ON A WALK OF FAITH WITH JESUS THROUGHOUT OUR LIFE) AND OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HIS AMAZING AND SAVING GRACE ON THE CROSS AND OUR UNDERSTANDING OF HIS (LORD JESUS') BEAUTIFUL, COMPASSIONATE AND AMAZING LOVE FOR US AS HIS DEAR CHILDREN AND ALSO HIS CONSTANT AND EVERLASTING PRESENCE IN OUR LIVES AND FOR ETERNITY. WE ARE ALSO HERE ON THIS EARTH TO BRING HONOR AND GLORY TO LORD JESUS AND GOD OUR ALMIGHTY HEAVENLY FATHER IN ALL THAT WE SAY AND DO -- WHICH INCLUDES SERVING OTHER CHILDREN OF GOD WITH OUR ACTIONS AND WORDS AND ALSO FIGHTING FOR JUSTICE AND BRINGING PEACE TO THE WORLD. THESE ARE VERY IMPORTANT THINGS TO CONSTANTLY REMIND US WHY WE ARE HERE AND WHAT WE NEED TO KEEP ON DOING EVERY DAY, NO MATTER HOW DIFFICULT OUR CIRCUMSTANCES ARE AND NO MATTER HOW LONG THE JOURNEY/WALK. IT IS ALSO VERY IMPORTANT TO REMEMBER THAT LORD JESUS ALWAYS LOVES, CHERISHES AND CARES ABOUT US -- HIS DEAR CHILDREN -- AND MOST ESPECIALLY WHEN WE ARE SUFFERING AND HURTING, AND ALWAYS, LORD JESUS HAS A PLAN TO RESTORE OUR HEARTS AND OUR LIVES AND OUR JOY WHEN WE ARE SUFFERING, AS ONLY LORD JESUS HAS THE ALMIGHTY POWER TO DO. IN JESUS' HOLY, GLORIOUS, BEAUTIFUL AND COMPASSIONATE AND MOST OF ALL LOVING NAME. LOVE ALWAYS, DIANE
