His Saving Love Exists. Holiness can be overlooked and Salvation avoided, but both exist.

The older I get, the more I pray, I never overlook, speak past or treat anyone as if they are not there, not right before me and simply invisible. In family gatherings, this happens frequently. Jesus wants no one to feel overlooked. He sees all, in all, through all, before all and after all. He encases us in His eternal love. Every single one of us are encased in His love. Whether we are loving Him or not, He continues loving us. His love is beyond faithful, it is supernatural and eternal. I've never understood why American youth have become fascinated with the eternal life and love aspects of vampire fairytales. Our eternal love story with Jesus is for real, unending, unconditional and forever. His blood was shed to wash away all sin for all time, for all of us. Our Holy God crushed His perfect Son producing the only blood strong enough to banish sin forever. This love story is overlooked, under-told and not believed by way too many. The fact that many do not and will not believe is so sad, but never alters the fact that His saving love exists.

We know and understand much of God, by faith.

"Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. For by it the elders obtained a good testimony. By faith we understand that the worlds were framed by the word of God, so that the things which are seen were not made of things which are visible." Hebrews 11:1-2

God of all Grace, beautiful in love, endless in mercy, tireless in deliverances, and joyous for the love of each one of us, we come to You asking You to form and inform our prayer. God, thank You for graciously forgiving the many times we blow right by asking You for Your advice, listening for Your guidance and even when we do ask and do hear from You, still, sin by doing something else.

We are such loved, forgiven sheep. Thank You for NOT withholding Your voice.

Thank You for Your Indweller, the Person of the Holy Spirit Himself. We determine to know nothing except Jesus and Him crucified. Thank You for Your thoughts toward us. Would You allow us to think MORE OF YOU? Make us think less of ourselves and more of You. You bless us with such greatness in salvation. God, help us live in that greatness, overlooking no one, especially You. Thanks that You understand what it feels like when we feel like "ghosts", completely overlooked from time to time by others. It's good to be Yours.

We pray peace to Jerusalem. Amen.
