An ideal song for Orbis Vitae, don't you think?... With love, from Maria Stella: https://youtu.be/CuUCvsO3QJg (YouTube channel mimi56J)
--- Well, Hi there, Maria, I finally found you. Here on "'Better Homes and Families, Recommended Books and Videos.'" Your song is so true. We all need to work together to have 'Common Ground', because as we are told, "We know that we are children of God and that the whole world is under control of the 'evil one'." ((1 John 5:19)~
-So, we press onward, and pray, "Even So Come Lord Jesus." Jesus tells us there will be no peace until the 'evil one' is removed, when 'Jesus, our Prince of Peace', comes for us. A great song for those of us waiting, I like this song. Hope you like it as well, Maria. "I Just Want To Be Where You Are"/ Don Moen~ ----

---JESUS CHRIST: ---THE SON OF GOD~ --(Read John 1:1-2) ~~~~~~~~ -HAVE YOU EVER HEARD SOMEONE deny that Jesus claimed to be God?Such a statement simply does not make sense. Repeatedly, Jesus placed Himself on equal footing with the Father and the Holy Spirit (John 10:30;14:6-14). Scripture gives us a clear picture of Jesus' eternal, intimate relationship with the heavenly Father.
Why is it important for us to believe this? Because Jesus did something that has never been done before: He enabled men and women to see God in a new way. In Colossians 1:15, Paul explains that Jesus is the "image of the invisible God." No one has ever looked upon the face of the Almighty. In the Old Testament, some people were confronted with God, but they were never able to look fully upon His glory. In fact, even Moses, who is called a friend of God (Ex. 33:11), could not look directly at Him. At best, Moses had the opportunity to look upon God's back as He passed by, but never saw His face (vv.18-23).
Jesus came to bridge the gap between God's glory and mankind's sinful nature. Therefore, Jesus could say, "He who has seen Me has seen the Father" (John. 14:9). --IN TOUCH~
--We read in James 2:22-23, "You see that his faith and his actions were working together, and his faith was made complete by what he did. And the scripture was fulfilled that say, "Abraham believed God, and it was credited to him as righteousness." and he was called God's friend.~~ - What A Friend We Have in Jesus/ Alan Jackson <https://youtu.be/QCV5t8wRBI8>

---------- --We all need others to help us sometime in our lives. Whether it be for finances, helping fix a car problem, yard problem, or for prayer. Let's be available to help others. That is what Jesus would do. He still does that for those who call on Him, today.
--We should all be available to reach out and help our brothers and sisters, in Jesus Name. Let's follow in His steps. Jesus said, "Call on Me and I will answer you and show you things that you do not know." ~
--Jesus wants to have a personal relationship with each one of us. He died to set us free from sin, and to live for Him. We can not do this on our own. The Holy Spirit living in us, helps us to live for Jesus Christ. Jesus said, "I am the vine and you are the branches. If you abide in Me, and my Word abides in you, you will bear much fruit. Apart from Me, you can do nothing." [John 15:5]~
**Let's consider some of the elements of His relationship with us. -**HE IS COMMITTED TO US AS A FRIEND FOR LIFE. In fact, this commitment is for more than a lifetime. It's eternal. He will never leave you or me, no matter what we do. And though life is bound to hold some disappointments, the Lord Himself will never let us down.
**HE IS OPEN AND TRANSPARENT TO US AT ALL TIMES. Jesus will show us as much about Himself as we desire to learn and are able to appreciate. He isn't going to keep from us anything that we need to know about Him.
**HE IS RENEWING HIS LOVING OVERTURES ON A DAILY BASIS. Jesus knows how to meet our deepest longings, and He's sensitive to our wants as well as our needs.
**HE IS AN INSPIRING COMFORTING LISTENER WHO WILL NEVER INTERRUPT OR BE QUICK TO CRITICIZE. He attends wholeheartedly to our requests. He eyes are so lovingly fixed on us that His heart hears exactly what we are saying.
What kind of friend is Jesus? John 15:13 answers that question: "Greater love has no one than this, that oone lay down his life for his friends." Because He gave Himself for all people, we as His followers can give ourselves to reach out to others. Who in your circle of influence needs the sacrifice of your time or care? Take time to minister to them and provide for their needs, because there is no greater privilege than being the hands and feet of Jesus. ~~
