Hello God, it’s me, Mara:

You know, Lord, even though Christmas has passed, this was thought-provoking; Sarah Young wrote some interesting thoughts, so, just sharing a little bit of what she wrote:

“I am leading you along a way that is uniquely right for you. The closer to Me you grow, the more fully you become your true self – the one I designed you to be. Because you are one of a kind, the path you are traveling with Me diverges increasingly from that of other people. However, in My mysterious wisdom and ways, I enable you to follow this solitary path while staying in close contact with others. In fact, the more completely you devote yourself to Me, the more freely you can love people.

“Marvel at the beauty of a life intertwined with My Presences. Rejoice as we journey together in intimate communion. Enjoy the adventure of finding yourself through losing yourself in Me.”

We know, Lord, that we are a new creation when we invited You into our lives.

We read in Ephesians 2:10; “For we are God’s workmanship, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.”

So, Lord, Your message to us today, and for as long as we are here on earth, is to love one another for we know that love comes from You; and everyone who loves has been born of God and knows You, Lord.

Subsequently, when You came to earth as a babe, You are our real GIFT. We are so blessed; we need to pay attention to what You prepared in advance for us to do and as the days fly by, help us to DO what You have prepared for us to do. That could turn out to be pretty amazing. Thank You, Lord, for blessing us, preparing us to go home to be with You, when You call us home.

Love, Mara
