We are sharing the Planet

When we received Jesus and asked Him to become the Lord of our life, we know by experience this life didn't become all peaches and cream. In fact it can seem like things got worse. That is not a negative confession, but a recognition of the reality of being a part of the Kingdom of God on this planet. The reason it seems like at times all hell has been sent against us, is because we are sharing the planet with a 'psycho'. There is a god of this world that hates the true and living God of all creation. Plus this 'psycho' hates every son/daughter that is still on the planet. OK, that is the reality of where we live. We are all currently living on the wrong side of the tracks. But that doesn't stop our fellowship with our Father.

We have the privilege of walking with Jesus moment-by-moment all day long. We have been given a new born again nature that has the capacity to know His voice. We can be aware of His presence. We can stay in fellowship with Him. We can learn the mysteries of the Kingdom of God while we share the planet with our enemy.

1 John 1:3-4 says, "...and truly our fellowship is with the Father and with His Son Jesus Christ. And these things we write to you that your joy may be full." In the midst of all the bad news and insanity of the world, we can walk in this same fellowship with our Father and our Elder Brother Jesus Christ. This fellowship is the true source of our joy. The Holy Spirit came to guide us into all truth and to teach us all things. Ask Him to help you in this fellowship.
