Finding Christ - Chapter 6
People act as if Christ is not attractive, but I have made sure to tell Christ in my life that He is beautiful to me. Even the most beautiful among men and I feel in return god has taught me how to dress and take care of myself for the stages of my adult life ,to attract the right type of Men to me and to protect myself at the same time. To attract creative men that would appreciate me for my creativity and mind. To see that my looks are something that have brought joy and pain, so during times I had to sacrifice my appearance they saw beyond it.
Christ is Beautiful
Typing my eyes out
Switch to the left
Right, Left, Right, Left
Somehow I knew
The combination.
God couldn't stand Me.
But He opened the gate and let me in.
I was twice broken,
Slipped and almost fell at the Gate.
He grinned and then lifted
Me with His hand.
You hurt Me He said.
And we started to cry.
I took my place.
He led Me among
The leaders, friends still.
A soft glow in my memory.
"I followed that feeling.
I did what I could.
My talents are humble.
I hope I did good."
"My Picasso ,my Marilyn,
my Audrey ,my Nephi
and Mary- You said
I was beautiful
When men said I was no good.
You said you'd suffer,
And You stayed looking good.
I'd say you did Well!"
Does Perfection grow with Love?
Sometimes I wonder , how much is it possible to love someone? Is there an end to it? They talk about having a "perfect love" ,but perfection is thought to have an ending to it and love to expand. What if perfection were to grow like love is thought to ,barring fruit, expanding , and having to be maintained and worked on as the being goes, always developing and maturing? There are limits though to what a being can handle. Maybe, having a "perfect love" means to love as much as your spirit and body can take. (That's why we have children to build something out of love, like a family as a reward. If we just put our attention into one person for a long time it may be good at first ,but the relationship can be more full with friends ,children, and other Family.)
So...... Yes ,the greatest sacrifice for love is to die for someone, just as Christ did ,the greatest of all, a perfect lamb, when He bled from every pore and later hung from the cross, because He loves us. God is Working out our salvation. Now because of Christ's atonement for us, He understands all and is infinite. He is as His Heavenly Father and knows our struggles. As we grow so do our relationships with Him and His mercy from our sins and trials therefore making a fuller ,richer being ,but the thing is ,is that it was always there in the plan of salvation, it was always with him. He was made to be our Savior and King. Somethings I think God can only understand, like is there a limit to love or perfection? We can only wonder and and imagine we can gaze at it's beauty at this time.
Not That we loved God ,but That He Loved Us ,So we could Love His Son.
1John 4:2-7
2. Hereby know ye the Spirit of God :every Spirit that confesseth that Jesus Christ is come in the Flesh is of God:
3. Ands every spirit that confesseth not that Jesus is come in the flesh is not of God: and this is that spirit of the antichrist, whereof ye have heard that it should come ;and even now already is it in the World.
4. Ye are of God ,little children ,and have overcome them : because greater is he that is in you , than he that is in the World.
5. They are of the World :therefore speak they of the World, and the World heareth them.
6. We are of God :He that knoweth God heareth us; he that is not of God heareth not us. Hereby know we the spirit of truth, and the spirit of error.
7. Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
We cannot be perfect in this life, but the spirit of Christ is. At times the Holy Ghost touches others through us that makes us have a perfect love at the moment. These are the times to be aware of , for these feelings of the Spirit are the guidelines for what the emotions and sense of who we should be all the time without the spirit in us in the Spirit World and beyond I believe.
This is Something I have ,learned of Charity.....
I told You! I'm Christian!
Guilt and shame overcame her because she remembered that the lord doesn't look at sin with a grain of
allowance, but she felt loving energy in the room and within her. You may look at yourself and say
that she may be inferior ,but look at her circumstances. Sometimes the Lord allows things to happen so
we may learn. In life we make mistakes. It's where your intentions and your level of work for good
that the Lord sees get Mercy. If we learn from our mistakes and live a life of repentance, I feel , we are
doing better than most as we love God and those people we are in contact with. With a warm heart I
tell you that God is aware of you. He is aware and working on your salvation as He does with each of
us, if we want it. So ,before you give up with guilt and go to extremes in life ,remember that, judging
on your heart and circumstances, the Lord may not be ashamed of you ,but He may meet you with a
warm hug ,where others would cower in shame, because the Lords knows our intentions ,thoughts, and
secrets. He would know anyway, but we would have already told him.
