Sending hugs to each of my Facebook friends here whom I have never met in person and those I have met! I yearn to meet you in person, but I know it is not possible, so I will wait until the Marriage Supper of the Lamb to hug each one of you.
It was a great blessing when I was able to meet a few of you in person. The fellowship was sweet; it was hard when it was time to go back home.
I have been mocked for thinking of my Facebook friends as real people and true friends. I know where this is coming from; those who mock do not understand the moving of the Holy Spirit in every believer and the ability to connect Spiritually because of Christ in each one of us.
Paul the apostle wrote letters to those he never met and felt a sense of missing them. Our connection is not physical proximity; it is Spiritual and transcends miles across the world. We are one in Spirit even while we are many miles away from one another.
Romans 1:8-17 "8 First, I thank my God through Jesus Christ for all of you, because your faith is proclaimed in all the world.
9 For God is my witness, whom I serve with my spirit in the gospel of his Son, that without ceasing I mention you
10 always in my prayers, asking that somehow by God's will I may now at last succeed in coming to you.
11 For I long to see you, that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you—
12 that is, that we may be mutually encouraged by each other's faith, both yours and mine.
13 I do not want you to be unaware, brothers, that I have often intended to come to you (but thus far have been prevented), in order that I may reap some harvest among you as well as among the rest of the Gentiles.
14 I am under obligation both to Greeks and to barbarians, both to the wise and to the foolish.
15 So I am eager to preach the gospel to you also who are in Rome.
The Righteous Shall Live by Faith
16 For I am not ashamed of the gospel, for it is the power of God for salvation to everyone who believes, to the Jew first and also to the Greek.
17 For in it the righteousness of God is revealed from faith for faith, as it is written, “The righteous shall live by faith.”
I am eager to meet you all one day at the Marriage Supper of the Lamb, I think about it all the time with great excitement!!!!
