Warmth

This word is calling me today. At times we all need to feel the warmth of something. The warmth I am talking about today can be defined as affectionateness: a quality proceeding from feelings of affection or love. This is what we get from God. We get a love that is warm that totally surrounds us like that blanket on a cold winter night. The world is around us with the cold air, the ice, the cold rain - the anger, the hate, the sadness - and we all are looking for somewhere to get warm. God offers that to everyone. He came as the light and light creates heat. He came with his love and loved us despite our being of no use to Him. When we are cold God is love. When we feel in darkness God is light.

God makes a huge dome for the sun—a superdome! The morning sun's a new husband leaping from his honeymoon bed, The daybreaking sun an athlete racing to the tape. That's how God's Word vaults across the skies from sunrise to sunset, Melting ice, scorching deserts, warming hearts to faith. The revelation of God is whole and pulls our lives together. The signposts of God are clear and point out the right road. The life-maps of God are right, showing the way to joy.The directions of God are plain and easy on the eyes. God's reputation is twenty-four-carat gold, with a lifetime guarantee. The decisions of God are accurate down to the nth degree. Psalm 19:4-9

We live in a spiritual world that God has created. We live in God's superdome. We have warmth of light and love. We have clear directions that give us joy. We can trust in God and the decisions that are made completely. We all to often opt out of this spiritual world and being spiritual beings for the cold world of ego and the physical world that we can see, touch, taste and we leave the superdome. We rely on others to show us the way, on others to tell us how to feel, and on other things to help us find warmth. We are left disapppointed, cold and depressed.

Remember today that you are a spiritual being having a temporary human experience and that warmth is available to you. The world may be cold, but God is light and love - God is warmth. Accept this warmth from God, wrap up in God's spirit. You are loved. You are in the light. Then turn around and be this warmth to someone who needs it. You are love. You are light. They will be warm, but so will you. Jesus said:

"Believe me: I am in my Father and my Father is in me. If you can't believe that, believe what you see—these works. The person who trusts me will not only do what I'm doing but even greater things, because I, on my way to the Father, am giving you the same work to do that I've been doing. You can count on it." John 14:11-13
