"I give to you because I love you. Love entails a relationship. I want to have a relationship with you. Why you? Why have a relationship with you? Because everything I have made has value and a purpose. When you have a relationship with me it is fruitful and glorifies me. What is my glory? It is not the pride that men gather in ill-hearts.

YCCM PART  Chapter  THE GREY ZONE Part Two: FAILURE?  My Brothers and Sisters, Don't count yourself out because you have made mistakes and failed to please and follow God; or, perhaps, you found yourself giving up or being depressed, losing faith and trust in God.

YCCM PART 4 DETAILS Chapter 24 COMMUNICATION THROUGH THE HOLY SPIRIT Philippians 2:1-5 If there be therefore any consolation in Christ, if any comfort of love, if any fellowship of the Spirit, if any tenderness and mercies, 2 fulfill ye my joy, that ye be likeminded, having the same love, being of one accord and of one mind. 3 Let nothing be done through strife or vainglory, but in lowliness of mind let each esteem the other better than himself. 4 Look not every man to his own things, but every man also to the things of others. 5 Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus, Philippians 2:14-15 14 Do all things without murmuring and disputing, 15 that ye may be blameless and unoffending, the sons of God, without rebuke in the midst of a crooked and perverse nation, among whom ye shine as lights in the world, My Beloved Brothers and Sisters, May this message reach your heart and bring you the peace and fruit of true fellowship wi...

YCCM PART  Chapter  LIVING IN THE GREY ZONE Part One: TERRITORY WAITING TO BE CLAIMED Revelation 3:14-22 14 "And unto the angel of the church of the Laodiceans write: 'These things saith the Amen, the faithful and true witness, the beginning of the creation of God: 15 I know thy works, that thou art neither cold nor hot; I would thou wert cold or hot. 16 So then because thou art lukewarm, and neither cold nor hot, I will spew thee out of My mouth. My Brothers and Sisters, I pray this day finds you well and at peace.  But, if this is not so...is it not true that our Heavenly Father loves us?  Is it not true that He chastises those whom He loves, that we may grow in holiness and righteousness?  Is it not true that He knows how much we can bear and weeping may endure for a night, but joy cometh in the morning? Be it so, then, count all your trials and tribulations as joy.  Think not on the trouble of the day, but th...
