| An
internet Christian friendship is a very
good illustration of the kind of relationship
we have with our Lord. We do not have to
see the friend to know and understand them.
We have established understanding, how to
help each other, how to pray for one another,
how to show our compassion and love for
one another, how to laugh and have fun -
all without having ever seen each other.
Many times it has been without ever hearing
their voice. So, therefore we are communicating
with the essence of our spirits and with
our written words.
What
a wonderful way to experience what our
communication with the Lord should be.
We can speak with Him, we can "see" Him
in His written word and in our spirits
we can understand Him, love Him, know
how to help Him in service to Him. The
emotions and feelings from His presence
and His still small voice in our hearts
let us know that He is with us in spirit
and in truth.
So,
if you would believe and know that He
is with you, and you are having a hard
time with that when you can't see Him,
just think of all your online Christian
friends whom you have never seen and think
how dear they have become to you through
who you are that they appreciate and through
who they are that you appreciate. Why
is this? It is because of His Spirit that
indwells each believer. His Spirit reaches
out and when He makes contact with another
in whom He dwells, He knows that He has
come unto His own.
We,
as believers are one in the Lord. We know
each other before the first salutation,
for our spirits are kin already. Keep
an eye and ear out for your kindred in
the Lord. They are there for enrichment,
encouragement and for delight as we labor
through these days upon the earth. They
are there to help us and may just have
the answer to one of our prayers within
their presence and their communications
with us. In the same way, we can be there
for them, also.
The
Lord has known from the beginning that
there would come a time, such as we are
living in right now, where we would need
to have quick communication. Life has
revved up so that, many of us, have only
minutes a day to call our own, when we
need desperately to reach out to others
and to receive from others validation
of our work for the Lord, encouragement
to keep on keeping on and ones with whom
to share the sheer joy of knowing and
serving our Lord Jesus Christ. May we
continue to take territory on the internet
for His kingdom and for the good of all
mankind.
In
loving prayer I ask our Lord to bless
this way of
communicating
and the using of it to serve Him, in Jesus'
precious name,
Marjorie
