latest LITTLE LETTER FROM LARA

0

Dear friend,

“I look up to her,” a homeless friend told a friend of mine as she spoke to my friend about me. Yes, you read that right. My homeless friend was telling my friend how she looks up to me.

In the past, I might have wanted that. I might have even craved that. The love, approval, acceptance, validation, and the praise, honor, and glory.

I quickly corrected my homeless friend. Not only do I not deserve a single ounce of praise honor and glory because ALL THE PRAISE, HONOR, AND GLORY BELONGS TO THE LORD JESUS CHRIST, but I DO NOT WANT THE PRAISE, HONOR, AND GLORY THAT BELONGS TO THE LORD!

I am madly, passionately, deeply, faithfully, devotedly, excitedly, thrillingly, humbly, head-over-heels in love with the Lord Jesus Christ, and my heart’s cry in life each and every day is NOT that people would turn to me. I desire that people turn from their sins and TURN TO JESUS CHRIST AS LORD – fully devoting their lives to Him now and forevermore!

I do not want to steal what is not mine. EVERYTHING good in my life, and everything good inside of me, and everything good through me, it is not mine. IT BELONGS TO JESUS. And so do I. I AM HIS.

Please do not look up to me, friend. I am NOTHING without Jesus. PLEASE LOOK UP TO THE LORD. And give yourself totally – and forever – to Him!

AMEN!

PLEASE, MY FRIEND, TAKE THE TIME TO READ THE VERSES BELOW. AND PLEASE CONTINUE SCROLLING DOWN FOR THE REST OF TODAY’S GOOD NEWS DAILY! MAY YOU BE ENCOURAGED AND BLESSED!

love & blessings,

lara

“And He said: “Take heed that you not be deceived. For many will come in My name, saying, ‘I am He,’ and, ‘The time has drawn near.’ Therefore do not go after them. But when you hear of wars and commotions, do not be terrified; for these things must come to pass first, but the end will not come immediately.”
Then He said to them, “Nation will rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom. And there will be great earthquakes in various places, and famines and pestilences; and there will be fearful sights and great signs from heaven. But before all these things, they will lay their hands on you and persecute you, delivering you up to the synagogues and prisons. You will be brought before kings and rulers for My name’s sake. But it will turn out for you as an occasion for testimony. Therefore settle it in your hearts not to meditate beforehand on what you will answer; for I will give you a mouth and wisdom which all your adversaries will not be able to contradict or resist. You will be betrayed even by parents and brothers, relatives and friends; and they will put some of you to death. And you will be hated by all for My name’s sake. But not a hair of your head shall be lost. By your patience possess your souls.

“But when you see Jerusalem surrounded by armies, then know that its desolation is near. Then let those who are in Judea flee to the mountains, let those who are in the midst of her depart, and let not those who are in the country enter her. For these are the days of vengeance, that all things which are written may be fulfilled. But woe to those who are pregnant and to those who are nursing babies in those days! For there will be great distress in the land and wrath upon this people. And they will fall by the edge of the sword, and be led away captive into all nations. And Jerusalem will be trampled by Gentiles until the times of the Gentiles are fulfilled.

“And there will be signs in the sun, in the moon, and in the stars; and on the earth distress of nations, with perplexity, the sea and the waves roaring; men’s hearts failing them from fear and the expectation of those things which are coming on the earth, for the powers of the heavens will be shaken. Then they will see the Son of Man coming in a cloud with power and great glory. Now when these things begin to happen, look up and lift up your heads, because your redemption draws near.”” Luke 8:21-28 NKJV
