God is pleased with God

From March, 1999

Only God can please God.  I cannot add to the happiness of God.  Anything that comes from me that is pleasing to God is from His Spirit in me.  I think of God as a massive river - going on with or without us.  In His mercy, He took pity on me and included me in the massive sweep.  I am only a vessel and that only because of God's mercy.  He overflows.

My flesh does not desire God or seek Him.  On the contrary, it desires darkness.  But God's Spirit is always drawn to Jesus Christ because God is only happy with God.  Because of God's compassion in making a way for me to be included in the sweep of Himself, I will seek God through His Spirit in me.  God's Spirit never fails; He is love and love never fails.
  
God has decided to include me and so is responsible to keep me according to His perfect will.  Since God indwells me with His Spirit, it is impossible for me not to know God because His Spirit will always go to Jesus Christ.  There is no other place for His Spirit to lead because God is only happy with God and His Spirit never fails.  He is love and love never fails.  The flesh may run from death and the enemy may try to separate me from God's Spirit, but God is more powerful and cannot be separated from Himself.  The Holy Spirit will always go to Christ; the Spirit lives in me.  The Spirit never fails.  Amen.
