The Fullness of Gods Unfailing Love!
Recently I read a story in the indepth study Breaking Free, by Beth Moore. It paints a picture referencing our daily obedience to our walk with Christ. I felt led to post this on our blog and pray that all eyes that read it are blessed! May the Holy Spirit bring revelation & love to your heart!!!!!!!

Imagine going to heaven and standing by God as He lovingly shows you the calendar of His plan for your earhtly life. It begins with the day you are born. Once you received Christ as Savior, every day that follows is outlined in red. You see footprints walking through each day of each week of your life. On many of the days, two sets of footprints appear. You inquire: "Father, are those my footprints on the calendar every day and is the second set of prints when you joined me?"
He answers, "No, my precious Child. The consistent footprints on your calendar are Mine. The second set of footprints are when you joined Me."
"Where were You going, Father?"
"To the destiny I planned for you, hoping you'd follow."
"But, Father, where are my footprints all those times?"
He answers, "Sometimes you went back to look at old resentments and habits while I was still going forward, hoping you'd join Me. Sometimes, you departed from My path and chose your own calendar instead. Other times, your footprints can even be seen on another person's calendar because you thought you liked their plan better. At other times, you simply stopped because you would not let go of something you could not take to the next day."
"But, Father, we ended up OK even if I didn't walk with You every day, didn't we?"
He hold you close and smiles, "Yes, Child, we ended up OK. But, you see, OK was never what I had in mind for you."
"Father, what are those golden treasure boxes on certain days?"
"Blessings, My child, I had for you along the way. Those that are open are those you received. Those still closed were days you did not walk with Me."

I love God's unfailing perfect love! I am not trying to "preach" only a feel good, sugar coated Gospel. We, as Christians, all know from the book of Revelation we will face the Judgement Seat of Christ. So, with that being said, I just want to love God today and worship Him for the aspect of His Unfailing Love! And yes, often times, even His beautiful love is in the form of discipline - I know. Believe, I know that one! But this story touched my heart. God is omnipresent! He will never forsake us or turn His back on us, even when we turn our back to Him. His Will and desire is ALWAYS that we repent, and turn towards Him! He has so much for us! His love is truly amazing! We can never try to humanize our Mighty God! God is love! The fullness of God is not a one-time occurrence. Every day of our lives - to live victoriously - we must learn to pour out our hearts to God, confess sin daily so nothing will hinder Him, and walk in His ways & not our own ways. Inviting Him to fill us fully! Then we need to continue to fan the flame of His love by reading Scripture, listening to edifying music, and praying! We also need to avoid things that obviously quench His Spirit. Proverbs 19:22 says that "What a man desires is unfailing love; better to be poor than a liar." God is the desire of our soul, regardless if recognize it or not! There are places within our being that were created for only Him to fill! Seek First His Kingdom and His Righteousness! Be filled with His Holy Spirit and delight in His presence!
