Throughout history, God has entered the physical realm of earth and time to speak to us, to walk with us, and to guide us. When God entered our world as Jesus, He opened the door for us to enter eternity. From the moment we believe the truth of who Jesus is and trust Him, we are given a new role. Now we have access to God in eternity because His Spirit is with us in Time. Here we live, but there we reign.

We don't often think of God in a position of validating us! Yet, that's what He desires to do. God's way of living is one of having a tender heart toward those less fortunate, and compassion for those who are lonely and forgotten. God doesn't ask for rule keepers. Instead, He looks for those who know love restores hope, covers shame and heals broken hearts.

The glory of God is displayed in the heavens, in the humility of Jesus to be a man and in the forever life we even now can live. Life, light and love are more than what we think or see or feel. They are the eternal presence of the everlasting, never-ending, all powerful, always present God of the Universe.

Jesus said, "everyone who loves the truth will receive my words." We know that God's word is alive and we also know that words have life or death in them. As you hear this meditation, consider Jesus' words. Do we love truth? Are we unwavering in our seeking truth, listening to truth, in order to live with fidelity and freedom every day?

To give us the authority to spiritually bind or loose on earth, and know that in Jesus' name, God is doing the same is an awesome responsibility. God is trusting us with His name, and His power. The keys to authority come from acknowledging and submitting to the authority of Love. It is in Love that we fight for the souls of others. It is not for our rights, but for their safety and security. Let His Love be the binding of our hearts and loosing of His kingdom power on earth today.

In any relationship, the key to the relationship is communication. There are two important aspects to our communication with God - worship and prayer. Worship is often expressed in music, but worship is much more than being able to play an instrument or sing a song. True worship happens in our hearts. It is posture of recognition that the One who has our attention, also has our commitment to serve and honor Him.

Jesus overcame the world, and He helps us overcome our by living in His peace, because we have the Holy Spirit of peace. Our troubles are not light nor do they seem momentary, but it is our perspective that must be adjusted. Only in light of eternity, with the view of God’s presence and our hope for an eternal future will  it all look different. If we will look beyond the physical world we live in and step into His kingdom which is also here, His peace is also in reach we will experience life instead of a dying moment. Our energy will be renewed and our hope restored in the midst of pain and trouble, indeed.

Today’s meditation touches on guidance for leading well. In God’s kingdom, those who are willing to serve, who honor others, who are not intimidated by being kind and honest are great. Solomon said, Good leadership is built on love and truth. Transparency in intentions, compassion for others are the hallmarks of those who are willing to do what is right. Every time. Let these words of truth permeate your mind and heart and lead well in the role you have been placed.

As a father in a family is a living example of how to respond to life's challenges, so our Father God, demonstrates a life of faithfulness by keeping His promises to us. In turn, we are to mimic, to learn how to be faithful to Him and to those in our life. It is a bond, God's promise of standing with us that expresses the depth of love and honor that we in turn can do the same to those around us.
