Knowing


 “Limitless undying love which shines around me like a million suns it calls me on and on across the universe.

John Lennon



There are 13 verses in the Bible about knowing.  


Meaning of Knowing The state of being aware or informed.  Showing or suggesting that one has knowledge or awareness that is secret or known to only a few people:  Done in full awareness or consciousness. 

 

To know, is it a thought process? Learning processes? Or a comfort felt within our soul. This word speaks to my soul…Because I don’t think I have ever been asked how well do you know them? But I have heard among other people of faith… You must grow to know Him?? 

 

What does that mean?? When we turn to the Bible, we find this is a masterpiece of information.  We find facts, we find wisdom, we find history, we find a guide to life and love.

 

But where do they tell us how to truly know Him?? I see and have been told so many different opinions, study the word, join a church, join a prayer group… And I respect everyone’s walk with Him. Each one of us is uniquely special to Him. What works for one is not necessarily what works for another. You have to find your own path to Him. 

 

I can only share my experience and heart. As many of you know I have been on a beautiful spiritual journey. The Holy Spirit touched my soul and then God held my hand and has guided me through the most amazing 25 months of my life. He held my heart and introduced Himself. I needed this introduction because I knew of Him but did not truly know Him. 

 

I called Him Father. 

 

But as my walk continued we became closer and He became Elohim. He then introduced me to His beautiful Son Jesus. As days passed, I grew to know Him better by spending time with Him. He frequented my meditations, but if the truth be known I invited Him often.  Surprisingly my meditations taught me many things. Jesus was so loving and kind. I love His humor. 


Together They introduced me to the sweet breath of God. His name is the Holy Spirit… I felt a LOVE that is beyond anything we can experience on this earth… During these months and as I grew closer. I told my Father, that I felt Father was too formal because we were spending so much time together.  I needed another name?? And I remember saying I know. I will call you Love because that is what I think of when I think of you. 

 

But then I thought how could I leave Jesus and the Holy Spirit out?  They are such a beautiful part of God the Father… On that day they became LOVE’s… They are my 3N1… So how do you get to know Them?? Find Them. Spend time with Them … Get close and personal. Let Them be your guide They will take you on the most amazing journey of your life….. 

 

Give Them the keys to your heart and let Them introduce you to a LOVE that will leave you in awe.  The first step of knowing Him is

LETTING GO !!!!!! and Feel Them in your soul.

 

You will fall in LOVE, and They will take it from there. 

 

It’s Him. It’s always HIM

 

The grace of the Lord Jesus Christ, and the love of God, and the communion of the Holy Ghost, be with you all. 2 Corinthians 13:14

 

For the kingdom of God is not eating and drinking, but righteousness and peace and joy in the Holy Spirit.  For he who serves Christ in these things is acceptable to God and approved by men. Romans 14:17-18

 

But grow in the grace and knowledge of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. To Him be the glory, both now and to the day of eternity. Amen 2 Peter 3:18

Passion


    The most powerful weapon on earth is the human soul on fire.” 

by Ferdinand Foch


.Passion any powerful or compelling emotion or feeling, as love or hate.

 

The word Passion comes from the Latin word for suffering. The crucifixion of Jesus is accepted by many scholars as an actual historical event.

 

There are 46 Bible Verses about Passion

 

When we say the word passion most will immediately think of a LOVE between a couple. Passion can be a powerful force. It can hold so many emotions. It can take us from 0-60 in seconds. Passion can grab your heart, change your focus, and redirect your soul. 

 

So, the question becomes, do we have a passion for life? Or do we get distracted with life itself? Do we truly appreciate the important things? Do we squeeze every ounce of beauty from each day we are blessed to take a breath? Or do we get bogged down from the negative vibes and miss the beauty that surrounds us??

 

How do we come to truly understand one of the most passionate intense moments in our history? Along with its significance and how it has affected our lives through the ages?

 

When we look back on that day, we see a passion of hatred so out of control that they tried to KILL a LOVE that was so large. 

 

Unfortunately, they did not understand the magnitude and beauty of the moment.  This moment proved to the world that all the hate in our world could not stop His LOVE. His LOVE spilled out that day and has touched souls for generations.


I do believe when we utter the word passion it’s His name that should spill out from our lips. His passion for LIFE and LOVE reaches far beyond our understanding. It has transcended time and space. He wow’s me.

 

His passion and LOVE can be felt in the deepest chambers of our hearts.

There is such a beauty and sweetness that the Father, the Son, and the Holy Spirit share with us. How do we not see it? How do we not run to Them with open arms?  Just open your heart and feel Him. This passion, this craving, for knowing more can take us on the most incredible journey of our life. I say, pack your bags and get ready to experience the ride of a lifetime. 

 

Its Him, Its always Him.. (3N1) 

And they were all amazed at the greatness of God. But while everyone was marveling at all that He was doing, He said to His disciples. 

Luke 9:43 NLT

 

“Yes, the Lord has done amazing things for us! What Joy!”  

Psalms 126:3 NLT.


"Grace to all who love our Lord Jesus Christ with an undying love." Ephesians 6:24, NIV.

Prisoner

God makes a home for the lonely; He leads out the prisoners 
into prosperity, Only the rebellious dwell in a parched land. 
Psalm 68:6

There are approximately 74 verses about Prisoners in the Bible.    

Definition of prisoner: a person deprived of liberty and kept under involuntary restraint, confinement, or custody. 

When we think of a prisoner, we think of someone who has committed some type of crime therefore they must do the time. What do we say or do when someone we know is incarcerated and they are innocent of any crime? It can play havoc with our thoughts? It can make us shed tears from the heart. 

This person must feel like the walls are closing in each day. They must feel stripped of all freedoms. They must feel like; life and people have turned their backs on them. Do we wonder, are they even treated humane? There are some horrific stories ... I can think of one person that was undeservingly taken into custody tortured, humiliated, and put to death. All for Love … Who loves like this? He can relate to us on all levels? Because of His depth of understanding, He can give you the keys to free your soul?

Many of us have never even seen the inside walls of a cell. But we have felt the walls of restraint and confinement without even leaving our home. We have built walls that have sheltered who we truly are? Perhaps we have been frightened and or humiliated by the thought of someone judging how and what we feel?  As we stand behind these self-inflected bars, are we truly safe? It is a raging war within our minds, our hearts, and our souls. It becomes a test of wills. Do we run and hide deeper within? Do you feel the walls closing in? Do you feel stripped of your freedom to live life? Or are you a prisoner in your own mind? Is there any way out of this merry-go-round?? 

I am not equipped to make medical recommendations.  But I can share this. When we search for answers in the darkness. There is a solution of the heart that has always been with you. Reach out and touch Him. He is waiting. He knows how you feel. He has lived the nightmare. He can hold you. He will soothe your soul and He will break all the chains that bind your heart. He will give you new-found freedom to LOVE and be Love.  Jesus has the ability to rescue you. You will find that freedom of the soul cannot be contained or deprived of liberty even if there are walls that bind you physically. 
Find Him. Love Him. your life will never be the same. 

It’s Him, It’s always Him.

“Bring my soul out of prison, so that I may give thanks to Your name;The righteous will surround me, For You will deal bountifully with me.” Psalms 142:7

Cross (Thank you)

His Love in any language is still LOVE! 

The cross is a symbol of the ultimate sacrifice for a beautiful gift of LOVE. It’s a Love that has been felt in the hearts of many across the world for centuries. It is a LOVE like no other. It truly is indescribable. 

When this deadly virus caught the world’s attention. Many things were changing, work, home, entertainment, church, the list is different for each one of us. But we have all been affected in some way. 

On March 18, 2020 my company changed my work status to temporary lay-off.  Hmm like many of us trying to keep myself occupied.  I found the time and felt the need to share my heartfelt thoughts. But how? And where? And then what to share became the question? A blog came to mind. I don’t know why? I know nothing about blogging? LOL  

For the last 24 months, I have been on the most amazing spiritual journey of my life.  But I must confess reading the Bible had not been incorporated into my daily walk. I found the Book dated and difficult to understand. 

I did own a Bible but never really read it! It was a dust collector on my shelf. But at the prodding of a special friend. I cracked the Book open and something magical happened.  The more I read God’s words. The more I began to understand the details of this masterpiece and the life manual He entrusted us to share. It’s been quite the eye, heart, and soul opening experience. 

My friend and I started a word study on December 14, 2019.  These words have opened up great discussions and they have started to fuse God's spiritual gifts with His words… And yes, it can be a magical experience. 

As the blog developed, I found a language translator button and quickly added it to the site. I wanted to try to touch hearts and share our Creators Love without limitations or boundaries. I have posted several word studies and meditations. To my surprise, in just 7 weeks the stats show almost 5k views from various countries. However, what I find amazing His words touched my heart… but not mine alone. His words and His love travels like a ripple in a pond. He never stops that forward motion. 

It’s Him, It’s always Him. 

I want to thank my Triune for the gift of writing and for their love and guidance. (Writing has been a new experience for me as well) I am a work in progress.  

I would like to thank you! Yes you, wherever you are! Thank you for taking the time out from your busy day to read and to support my Triune Loves Me blog. A special thanks to those who have shared the blog and for your comments!! 

I pray God keeps you in His protective arms. May Jesus love you unconditionally. May the Holy Spirit guide you to greater strength, happiness, and to spiritual freedom like you have ever known.  
The 3N1 has the power to change our hearts, our loves, and our life.

Love Peace and Light!
I am the ripple…. 

See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! And that is what we are! The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him. John 1 3:1 NIV

Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love. 1 Corinthians 16:14.

Beginning

Every second of every day is the opportunity for a new beautiful beginning.
Embrace it, Love it! Own it! (LG)

The word "beginning" occurs 107 times in the King James Version of the Bible.

Meaning of beginning a point in time or space at which something starts:

Sometimes the scariest thing is the beginning. The uncertainties. The expectations, The unknown?? It can bring a rush of emotions excitement, joy, fear, and anxiety just to name a few?? 

Somehow, we all have faced the beginning of something new ... New locations, new friends, new job, new school, newfound loves, new passions, and the list goes on. There are times when we feel we are in control and then there are the times we are on a journey that seems to have a life of its own. Are we on autopilot ? or is there a Godly presence that has our destiny in His control? 

As I pondered this and looked at scriptures for answers?  I found a scripture that states “I am the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last, the Beginning and the End.” Hmm crazy as this sounds, I love thinking about this verse as we think of life... Knowing God was there at the beginning of life, and He has held us in his loving hands and loved us through this amazing journey. He makes me smile. 

This verse also gives us comfort knowing He will be there at the end of this life as we know it... But wait!! He has also promised us life for eternity in exchange for loving Him above all else. 

So, let’s put the two together and see this as an amazing LOVE Story! His love for us started at the beginning of life and He has loved us through our entire journey. He has loved us through all of life's trials. The happy..the sad..the wins.. the losses..and all the victories small and large.  The beauty of His promise of love is it will continue until we take our last breath. 

But if we believe Him and His word it’s not the end, it is a beautiful new beginning with God for eternity... He chose each of us before the world began ...It's what we do with this gift of life that will determine how and with whom we will spend eternity.  What type of impact and memories we leave and intrust with others on this earth will determine our soul's future residence. 

I would pray that when that time comes we can raise our hands and say I am present God count me in! I am ready for the beginning of this new adventure. Let's do it!


"For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."John 3:16 

“When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who goes out from the Father—he will testify about me. And you also must testify, for you have been with me from the beginning.” John 15:26-27 NIV 

“A long time ago, the Lord had me. He had me before he created anything. The Lord chose me in the beginning before the world began.”Proverbs 8:22-23 EASY

Character

Do to others as you would have them do to you.  Luke 6:31 – (NIV)

Character is it inherited? Or is it molded by life? We can only build our character daily by the way we think and conduct our behavior, thought by thought, action by action. 

We are all a work in progress and can miss the mark at any given moment. We are human. But there is always room for improvement no matter what stage of life we are presently in... However, in order to improve we need to identify the character traits we want to emulate. 

So, I decided to use Jesus as my role model. here are a few descriptive words I have put together to describe our perfect Savior.  

Loving, Joyful, Peaceful, Peacemaker, Courageous, Merciful, Kind, Resilient, Perceptive, Forgiving, Faithful, Humble, Generous, Self-controlled, Passionate, Perseverant, Godly, Integrity, Prayerful, Truthful, Sacrificial, Righteous, Hopeful, Fully alive, Thankful, Diligent, Intimate, Friendly, Servant minded, Self-aware, Confident, Loyal, Courageous, Powerful, Meek, Patient, Flexible, Unafraid, Valuable, Self-protective, Inspiring, Spirit-filled, Calm, Nurturing, Healed, Healthy, Discerning... 

I am sure this list only scratches the surface. However, as I constructed my list my thoughts went here ... Wow, He truly is perfect!!! I can only pray that I take each word into my heart and try each day to make them a way of life.  I know It’s impossible to fill his shoes but if we follow in His footsteps it can only improve our own character thought by thought, action by action. one year, one month, one week, one day at a time...

Join me in my quest ... Let His light shine through our imperfections as we hone in on building our own character. You may even be amazed that the changes in you will unfold a beautiful life that has just been waiting to bloom. 

He still WOWs me. 

“Do what I teach you to do. Listen to my message and learn from me what is true. I am very kind, and I do not make myself important. I will help you. Then you will have peace in your mind. I will not tell you to do things that are too difficult. I will not tell you to carry anything that is too heavy for you." Matthew 11:29-30 ️

“The good person out of his good treasure brings forth good, and the evil person out of his evil treasure brings forth evil.” Matthew 12:35
