Steps of Faith for the Deaf

111524

Hello,
Have you ever thought that God enjoys having us love Him?

We can love God in the same way that we would love someone dear to us.

We would talk softly to them and tell them how much we love them and how dear and important they are to us.

We would thank them for the joy they bring to us.

We can do the same to God. We can sit quietly before God. We can draw near to God in our mind and spirit.
We can speak softly to Him and tell him how much we love him and how dear he is to us.
We can thank him for the joy he brings into our lives.

We can sing to him words of love and worship. We can tell him that we do trust him and want to trust him more.
We can thank him for all the good things he has allowed us to have.
We can thank him for the lessons we have learned for our good by the hard things that have happen to us.

We can thank him for loving us and forgiving us.
We can thank him for the strength that he gives us each day.

We can thank him for watching over us—-for leading us along life’s way.
We can thank him everyday for forgiving our sins and allowing us to have eternal life in heaven.

When we “love on” a person—- we do not ask them for things.

It is a time to tell them we love them and let them know our feelings for them.

This is the same for God. The time we “ love on” God is not a time of asking for things. It is a time to tell him how much we love him.

When we take the time to “love on” a person—we feel closer to that person. This is the same for God.
When we take the time to “love on” God —we will feel closer to him.

Do you feel far away from a person you love? Have you told them recently how much you care about them?

Do you feel far from God? Have you told God recently how much you love him?

Take time to “love on” people.
Take time to “love on” God.

Psalm 104:33, 34
I will sing unto the Lord as long as I live: I will sing praise to my God while I have my being.
My thoughts of him shall be sweet: I will be glad in the Lord.

Psalm 105:2
Sing unto him, sing psalms unto him: talk of all his wonderful works.

When you give love to others—you are richer in love yourself.

When you give love to God—you will feel his love in a richer way.

Good-bye for now. I’ll write again.                    Sincerely, Joyce Webb
