The Promise of Romans 8:28

"We know that all things work together for good to those that love God, to those who are called according to His purpose." Romans 8:28. This is My promise to you.

I wish everyone could learn to live in love, but because people are not perfect and they often make selfish choices, I gave that promise as a safeguard to My children who love Me. In this world there will be injustice and selfishness and difficulties and pain, but I have the power to override all of that for your sake. No matter what choices of those around you, I am able to give you what's best for you.

Sometimes what I know is best is different than what you think of as "best." Sometimes My best means more brokenness, more compassion, more understanding of others, more humility. All of these qualities are part of the best in your life.

Of course, I am not able to turn these bad situations for your good or to bless and reward you in other ways unless you let Me work in your life. But the beauty of this promise is that the moment you fulfill the conditions-loving Me and yielding to My will- I begin to work on your behalf. No matter what mess you find yourself in, when you love Me and yield to My purpose in your life, I am able to turn all things for your good.

Praise Brings Peace!

Why endure another sleepless night? Why suffer from anxiety when you can give your cares to Me and I can give you peace of mind? Even in the bleakest circumstances, I can give you amazing peace that will relieve the mental and physical stress caused by worry and fear.

My peace comes to your heart when you turn your eyes from your troubles and toward Me. Stop worrying and think about Me. Find one thing to thank Me for- one special thing that I have done for you in the past- and praise Me for that. Or think of the worst thing that has ever happened to you, and the fact that you are still here, and turn your thoughts into prayer of thanksgiving. Even if you did not pray at the time, even if you did not yet know Me at the time, it was I who brought you through that situation. I have been watching over you your whole life, and I have either helped you through or spared you from more troubles than you can imagine- just like I am going to help you through your present problems.

The more you praise Me, the more My peace will fill your heart.

          Learn from past mistakes and put them behind you today. Forgive those who have wronged you and ask forgiveness from those you have wronged. That probably won't be easy, but don't put it off.--Do it today. Look to Me and My word for fresh courage and hope, starting today. Dream new dreams today. Set new goals today.

From Jesus With Love Books

by Dennis Edwards -

I wanted to take time to introduce the From Jesus with Love books. I can’t recommend these books highly enough. From Jesus with Love books are like that morning cup of coffee or that loving sex first thing in the morning with your mate. It lifts you up for the whole day or at least gets your day started on a high and in the right direction.

We all seek for spiritually uplifting material or we should do. Having a good reading or viewing diet will help in those moments of crisis or stress that we all experience. Not developing good reading or viewing or listening habits can lead to disaster and leave us without solutions or strength or the will to go on when we hit the hard walls of life. From Jesus with Love books are just the thing you need if you want to develop a more positive reading agenda.

Recently, I went to visit a dear man and his wife who are going through some very difficult times. His company went bankrupt and he lost all his properties and savings. He was suicidal and spent time in a psychiatric hospital. When we sat down after the usual formalities, I suggested we read from the From Jesus with Love for Troubled Times. The Lord let me to start off with the following selection which left this man in tears. He commented, “It sounds like it was written for me.” I responded, “It was, it’s From Jesus with Love!” Here’s the selection that we read.

Seasons of Life

          “When you hit bottom, when dreams give way to disappointment, when all you've worked so hard for goes to pieces, when life no longer holds any purpose or promise, you are tempted to despair and wonder if there is any reason to go one living. In extreme situations you may even be tempted to end it all yourself, right now.”

          “That’s when you must remember that you were created for a purpose, and that purpose isn't a single, one-time thing; it’s multifaceted and complex. As long as you live, there will be something more you can accomplish—something you are meant to accomplish—and there is always more to get out of life. The end of one dream doesn't mean the end of all dreams. Just as the seasons come and go in their cycle, periods of success and setback, fulfillment or disappointment, and emotional highs and lows come and go. You may be in the depths of despair now, but that won’t last forever.”

         “Soon you will find hope and a reason to go on—and the sooner you ask Me to show you what I have for you next, the sooner you will find new inspiration and purpose. The best may be just around the corner, but you’ll never know if you stop here. Take My hand and let Me lead you into a new season of fruitfulness and fulfillment.”

          That is one of the 68 pages of encouraging words from the book From Jesus with Love for Troubled Times. It will lift your spirit and give you new meaning and purpose in living. From Jesus with Love is a great gift book, great devotional, great for people needing encouragement. Please order one today for yourself or a loved one. You won’t be disappointed.
