The One Thing

Jesus might say:

 "You are troubled and distracted by so many things, but only one thing is necessary," (Luke 10:38-42) and that is communing intimately with me.  You don't need to prepare anything to come to me. Stop slaving to serve me. Come, sit here by me, and open the ears of your spirit, for I have much to tell you. Great and unsearchable secrets (Jeremiah 33:3), love, and encouragement ... challenges and even correction. But the things I say will increase your faith, and your ability to love. Indeed, the things you hear from me create your faith, for faith comes by hearing and hearing by the word of Christ (Romans 10:17). And that, my child, is all you need to find rest from your anxieties, distractions and fears.

Faith

Listening 

More faith 

More ability to hear

Fruit

Love

Rest 

All you need you will find here, next to me, listening to my words, and in the silence, listening to the beat of my heart with you head upon my breast.

Love,

P.S. Author's note: This blog is written in the voice of Christ. I feel this style of writing gives people a fresh perspective and greater sense of God's presence. Denying a duty-based faith, my goal is to free people up from condemnation and burdensome rules and present a perspective of the reader's freedom and God's unconditional love and acceptance. ~ Cyndi
