"All people could use an infusion of God's LOVE."

Meaning of infuse to cause to be permeated with something (such as a principle or quality) that alters usually for the better.

There are approximately 67 verses that reference the word infuse in the Bible. 

When I think of the word infuse, it brought me to the time when that ugly word rang positive in my mind… you have covid… It was a time of reflection, shortness of breath… and a time to rest… As I laid quietly in my bed. I would go to my Heavenly Father for His love and healing… I could not focus or even talk to Him for very long. It was there, I would be lolled into deep peaceful rest.  I and found myself slumbering in His loving and protective arms… and I fell into such an amazingly deep sleep. 

I find many of us search and cling to Him in our darkest hour... 

I was blessed by a neighbor who suggested I go and get an “infusion” many have come to know this as Monoclonal Antibody. So, armed with the medical information and my Heavenly Father, my dear Son In law drove me to the hospital… I was brought in and shown to my makeshift room.. The nurse started checking me in and explaining the details... As she placed the needle in my arm and started the IV… She advised me to just sit, be still and make myself comfortable that I would be there a couple of hours... 

It was then and there that I closed my eyes, laid my head back, and began to try to take deep breaths and to speak a love language that only my Heaven Father, His loving Son Jesus, and my beautiful Holy Spirit could understand... 

My body was completely relaxed but my soul was free to feel His  presence and His beautiful healing love… 

Little did the nurse on staff realize… I was being spiritually infused and I was at peace....  mind, body and soul. 

Being spiritually infused is the greatest moment one can seek… You can get this treatment day or night 365 days a year. It will capture your heart, free your soul and heal you from the inside out.  

Our earthly bodies are just temporary vessels… It is our soul that is the true essence of who we truly are no matter where we are in this journey we call life.

I speak of this heavenly existence because I am infused with my Father's LOVE and I trust Him with my life and I whole heartedly believe in Him, His promises and His amazing LOVE for eternity... 

If you have not found Him or You have not been infused with His love … I urge you to close your eyes, be still… and open your heart and let your soul be freed to LOVE Him… 

Be infused with God's LOVE… But know you will not be able to contain this Gift you will feel the desire to share Him so others can find their way… There is nothing on this earth that can even compare to….

Him… It is always HIM 

Ezekiel 37:5 - This is what the Sovereign Lord says to these bones: Look, I am about to infuse breath into you and you will live.

May you be infused with strength and purity, filled with confidence in the presence of God our Father when our Master Jesus arrives with all his followers.1 Thessalonians 3:13

Tasha Cobbs - Fill Me Up / Overflow (Medley) [Live]

It all starts with just a glance... But it's that second lingering look that may open your heart and capture your soul. (lg)

Glance means to take a quick look at something.  It is used nine times in the Bible. 

Do you ever wonder at the bigness of God?   There are so many people in the world that I wonder how He knows my name or what I am doing. If we think of Him as a personal God  He has to have an amazing mind and memory. 

He sees the end from the beginning.  He knows the number of hairs on our heads.  He knows our thoughts.  I do not know how that is possible.  He talks to each of us if we are listening. And nothing is too hard for Him.  The Bible says that with just a glance He examines humanity.  

This same God not only knows everything about us as humans, but he delights in us.  He can see our love for Him as He takes a glance into our eyes.  If we are beholding Him with love and affection He knows this and He is overcome by how we feel about Him.  The words of Song of Solomon say, “For you reach into my heart.  For with one flash of your eyes I am undone by your love, my beloved, my sister, my bride. You leave me breathless- I am overcome by merely a glance from your worshiping eyes, for you have stolen my heart.”

How can we not love this one who came from heaven and reminded us of the first great commandment to love Him with all our heart, soul, and mind?  He loves me loving Him. As the old saying goes, “this causes me to meltdown into my socks”.  So take a deep breath. 

This has been His plan for us since the beginning. And we are here at this point in history for a reason.  In the Book of Revelation 1:16, we see him again.  

“In His right hand He held seven stars, and a sharp, two-edged sword was seen coming from His mouth; and His glance resembled the sun when it is shining with its full strength”.   He is the living One Who will take us through the rest of our days with His love, peace, and victory.  He says “Fear not, for I am with you”. 

His glance is always toward us. 

You have captured my heart, my sister, my bride. You have captured my heart with one glance of your eyes, with one jewel of your necklace. SOS 4:9

The most powerful weapon on earth is a human soul on fire – Ferdinand Foch 

Meaning of Kindle - light or set on fire. 

The word kindle is in the Bible approximately 27 times. 

Have you ever heard where there is smoke there is fire? Is fire even a spiritual possibility? 

The question in my mind becomes how do we build this fire in the first place? Is there a dormant spark that lives within our soul ?? Was that desire to LOVE our Creator placed within our hearts long before we were even born? What is that accelerant that makes us feel so spiritually alive? What sparks a flame into a warm glow of love ?? 

How do we find that missing piece that haunts our every waking moment? Why do we feel such a void in our souls? It seems no matter how hard we try, we can not fill this empty place that lives within... Success, jobs, cars, homes, people, things, all these worldly things bring temporary happiness... 

How can we go back to when we felt that craving and love in our soul? What can satisfy this thirst? This hunger? What is the purpose of our life? 

So many questions race through our hearts and minds.

In order to build a fire, one must gather tinder, kindling, and fuelwood to start the fire. But friction is needed or what you gathered will be nothing but a pile of cold sticks...

Spiritually speaking we can read the Bible and yes it’s an amazingly beautiful love story...

We must realize that God’s Holy transformation of our heart is the friction that is needed to spark our soul... The Holy Spirit will fan the flame by giving you the gift of understanding His words, His desires. And the ability to hear His whispers as he gently guides us home. 

But it’s the kindling that will ignite the fire of LOVE that will consume your heart... and whisper sweet love songs to your soul...is Him!! Some call Him Yeshua others call Him Jesus I call Him a beautiful gift from our Heavenly Father. He is an intricate man with a Heavenly connection.  He was woven from the warmest loving parts of our Heavenly Fathers DNA. Our Father gave us the very best of Himself for a beautiful purpose. He gave us this gift to fill the yearning in His heart to save His children and to love all of mankind...

Can’t you feel Him in your soul.? Invite Him into your life and get swept away ...You will be filled with that burning desire to learn more about a spiritual love that is beyond our human understanding.  Discovering the facts about His amazing life are only stepping stones to His heart. But getting to know Him on a personal intimate level is a heavenly experience and a gift so difficult to describe.  He is such an affair of the heart... 🔥❤

It’s Him, It’s always Him 

For this reason, I remind you to kindle afresh the gift of God which is in you through the laying on of my hands.

2 Timothy 1:6

And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all thy mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment. Mark 12:30

Soul on Fire - Third Day (LYRICS)

Teach me, Father, Teach me in the way I should go, Teach me How to LOVE like you. Make me far better than I was before. 

OH teach me what it means that cross uplifted high.  As I looked at the word TEACH this old hymn came to mind.  

I could tell you many ways and many stories about this word.  And that is used 215 times in the Bible. But I only want to share about the greatest Teacher.  From the moment we are born He gently begins to show us Who He is.

As we grow we notice the sun and moon and stars.  He says I made them all for you. Then He teaches us that He came down to earth to be your Redeemer.  He wept over us until we saw how much He loves us.  

He says I gave my life for you what have you given to me?   Our answer must be “I come just teach me all it means to know you and the fellowship of your sufferings for me”.

To the willing and seeking heart, He will teach you day by day.  He knows how we best learn. He knows what will touch our hearts.  

In a country where only one percent are believers in this amazing God. An older woman began to read His Word and He began to teach her, others came up to her to help her in her search.  After some weeks she realized that He had come to earth to save her and give her that love and fellowship with Him.  Her testimony rang out in that small Church. “I am no longer alone”. 

And that is just one story of how the greatest Teacher will touch your heart with words of His love.If we know Him and love Him His command to us is to share and help others come to Him by the words we share and by helping them understand what this life with Him is all about. 

He is the greatest Teacher. 

Go forth in whatever way is open to you speaking and teaching of this wonderful love and life of our Beloved.  He wept over us.  May we weep as we sow seeds of love and life.  In this way, we share in His sufferings. 

We are commanded to go and make disciples.  Teaching them to observe all things He has told us.  We may not have known Him very long, but we already know we love Him with all our heart, soul, and mind.   SO

“He that goeth forth and weepeth, bearing precious seed, shall doubtless come again with rejoicing, bringing his sheaves with him.”

Psalm 126:6 KJV

“Shew me thy ways, O Lord; teach me thy paths. Lead me in thy truth, and teach me: for thou art the God of my salvation; on thee do I wait all the day.”Psalm 25:4-5 KJV

“Only in Jesus Christ do we see how the untamable, infinite God can become a baby and a loving Savior. On the cross, we see how both the love and the holiness of God can be fulfilled at once.” -Tim Keller   

The meaning of pain - the physical or mental suffering or discomfort caused by illness or injury:

The word pain appears to be in the Bible approximately 70 times. 

I felt this word was such an odd word, and questioned why it came to me. I did not have any immediate pain to report, just the usual aches and pains that life can throw our way... 

There are different types of pain.. bodily pain and spiritual pain some are felt lightly and yet some can be crippling. Some pain may even grieve the soul. 

When I turned to the Bible for answers I found myself at the foot of the cross.  It’s a moment in time that wounds my heart and haunts my soul. The excruciating pain and humiliation that our beloved Savior endured are mind-boggling. All because of love. It is beyond what we could even imagine. He must have felt abandoned, confused, and alone. His heart must have shattered in pain all because many could not find it within themselves to believe who He truly was... let alone to love Him as He loved us??? This moment in time is the biggest mistake man could have ever made. I fear this is still true today!!!! I fear that there is only a fragment of believers that love Him not for what He gave or can give but for who He truly is... 

Can we ever soothe His pain? Can we ever repay Him for His sacrifice? Can we ever love Him in the way He loves us? I fear not!  We can try, we can try each day by getting to know Him on that amazing and intimate level.  And as we grow deeper in love with Him. We will begin the journey of better understanding His pain, His sacrifice, and the depth of His love... 

He is our beloved... He is our precious gift from our Creator. He came with a mission. He came to teach us how to live and how to love. He will never abandon us. He will hold us and love us through any pain we must endure... 

It’s Him, It has always been Him! 

How does He love us so deeply? It is difficult for the human mind to understand!!  But the heart and soul have no boundaries... 

And He will wipe away every tear from their eyes, and there will no longer be any death; there will no longer be any mourning, or crying, or pain; the first things have passed away.” Revelation 21:4

“And I continually long to know the wonders of Jesus and to experience the overflowing power of his resurrection working in me. I will be one with him in his sufferings and become like him in his death.”

Jaci Velasquez - Imagine Me Without You (with Lyrics)

One day early in my journey I had a conversation with my Heavenly Father and ask Him this question.

How do you feel about social media? I suggested that it would be a great way for me to tell my story of His great LOVE. I was a very private person before He touched my soul. But when this happened I step out of the shadows of life and into His LIGHT. I have shared so much that vulnerability became a way of life. But I would not change a thing... it has been the most amazing journey of my life...  

And as they say, the rest is history... This is a gift to Him, from my heart.

I could not have done any of it without Him... He has blessed me in so many ways...There is nothing I have that can repay Him but my LOVE. 

I pray that somewhere within the words, images, and meditations that I have shared we have touched your heart. 

Never underestimate what our Heavenly Father, can do with just a pinch of clay... He WOWs me.

The blog has 24,500 views, and the podcast has 2,040... and If one of those happens to be you.

Thank you. 

Please share His Love... your life with never be the same. 

But now, O LORD, you are our father; we are the clay, and you our potter; and we all are the work of your hand. thou art. Isaiah 63:16.

“That is the reason you should always stay awake and be alert because you don’t know the day or the hour when the Bridegroom will appear. Matthew 25:13-15 TPT..

Meaning of night the period of darkness in every twenty-four hours; the time from sunset to sunrise. 

I did not see a word count for the word night. However, I will share what I did find. “God created light and separated the light from the darkness, calling light "day" and darkness night. “

The question that haunts my soul is .... are we ready? Or will we be sleeping so soundly that we miss the most amazing moment of our life... 

As I sit in the darkness of my empty room I can only see a small light spilling onto the wooden floor... And I began to wonder with great anticipation is this the night? Will I be swept away into the heavens? Who will be chosen? Will my soulful ears hear the footsteps of our Savior? Our beloved King! Or will I be left behind... Will we heed His sweet whispers? Are we constantly refining our senses?  Is our soul preparing us for the days ahead? 

I do believe many are yearning to see God's face... Many can’t wait to sit down and talk to Jesus... I have heard many times, I have a list of questions I need to ask Him??  Some speak of the Holy Spirit but are unclear of the role He will play in the future ... He dwells within us ... So am I to assume if I leave this body behind and become a soulful being the Holy Spirit comes too? or where does He go?? As you can see the night clears the busyness of the day ... stillness arrives and many thoughts dance through our heads... 

We do have many unknowns? But oh my we have been blessed with many knowns ... As we spend the time with Him day or night we began to see His precious face... We can feel His powerful yet loving presence.. It's overwhelming... Our heartbeat strengthens and we began to yearn for more... more... more of Him. 

It’s at this time we began to realize, we may never know the answers to all of our questions... We must focus our desires on Him and Him alone.  Our faith may be tested, our friends and family may question our love... Our curiosity may shift from unanswered questions to a yearning of discovering all the beautiful facets of Him... Some will fall in love with an indescribable unexplainable soulful love for Him. 

I find the stillness of night one of the most intimate times of our day. It’s when we can silence our minds and feel Him with our hearts. We can feel the depth of His character and feel the vastness of His love... We grow to know our Creator and our purpose becomes clearer with each passing day. 

I believe as He whispers to our soul... He is training His children to react to His voice no matter the time ... day or night... but I ask you, are you using this time wisely? Are you spending the time cultivating your heaven language and refining your senses ... Or are you too busy with earthly things to not be prepared?  Shhh listen.... listen can you hear Him? Do you feel Him stirring in your soul? It’s Him.

I can only hope that I have given my soul the tools to be ready to hear the most important voice we can ever be tuned in to hear ... He promised He will return...  Be watchful for His arrival.. watch day and night...

Be ready ...   

I must admit my eyes are getting heavy, and I must get some rest... Goodnight my LOVEs find me in my dreams... That it’s where my soul awaits to hear your sweet voice... It's the most amazing LOVE frequency we can ever experience. 

Shh listen with me... 

... It's Him. It’s always Him...Feel Him in your soul.... 

Matthew 25:13 - Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh.

“It’s impossible to disappear from you or to ask the darkness to hide me, for your presence is everywhere, bringing light into my night.”

Thief in the Night

When I look at this old beat-up typewriter... I can only hear the beautiful melodic keys and wonder who it belonged to and how many lives it touched with the words of LOVE. (lg)

Meaning of the word epistle one of the letters adopted as books of the New Testament: a liturgical lection usually from one of the New Testament Epistles.  A formal letter 

Epistles make up the majority of the Bible’s New Testament. Of the 27 books, 21 are epistles.

A letter is a written message conveyed from one person to another. Is writing a letter a dying art?  Think what is the last letter you have formally written? It used to be the most used method of sharing your thoughts and your heart across the world... These Letters can be formal or informal. 

In today’s environment, we use quick notes and short text... It’s quick and all punctuations, salutations, and letter forms... are nonexistent and this is considered normal  ... Even spelling ... who could get by without spell check??? 

When I began to ponder this word.. my mind went to a time where letters brought messages of love... Possibly a soldier who is far away from home and this letter is his only connection to home... How excited He became to get any news. Some letters even carried a hint of perfume that reminded him of that special love. 

When we look at the Bible which during this word study we have determined it’s a beautiful love story written by souls who loved our Heavenly Father, His beautiful son, and the Holy Spirit. 

For example, we have Paul who used this art form to teach and to share his knowledge and heart about a greater love. He wrote many letters he had a burning desire to show anyone who would read or listen the direction home.. (into our Fathers loving arms) 

So again I ask you? When is the last time you have written a formal letter? When is the last time you have written a love letter? Have we forgotten how?  

One of the most known verses is. We love because he first loved us” 

(1 John 4:19).  When is the last time you told Him I love you? 

So that said, I challenge you to close off the outside world. Turn off your phone, play music that moves your soul... dust off your pen, grab a piece of paper, and pour out your heart and soul to your first LOVE... Write that formal letter let Him know how you feel... I will start ... 

Dear LOVEs,

    You are my beautiful 3n1.  I love you more than life itself.   

Be inspired, and open your heart... Be His beloved... 

(tears are allowed) 

It's Him. It’s always Him❤!!!!

Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God, and every one that loveth is born of God and knoweth God.

Love letter from Jesus

"Charisma is not so much getting people to like you as getting people to like themselves when you're around." ~ Robert Breault... 

Meaning charisma 
compelling attractiveness or charm that can inspire devotion in others: 
"she enchanted guests with her charisma.” A divinely conferred power or talent.

The word charisma is not written as such in the Bible... However, this word pointed me to this .. grace or gifts denoting extraordinary powers or favor. 

Charisma what is this something extra? Why do some have this extra attraction?  How does this work? We see it in our daily lives when we see the masses fill event stadiums, concerts even churches... 

What is the mojo that sets them apart?  They are truly no different than you and me? They have many of the same traits...   I have to believe they have many of the same insecurities, strengths, and desires... 

So is this a gift? I do believe we all have many gifts ... But do we cultivate them? Do we refine them with time?  Why were we given them in the first place?  Did we impact our world with our gifts? Or did we make a difference in our intimate circle of friends or family? Will our legacy of life on earth be remembered? 

If we are blessed to travel through many chapters of life... We learn many things from people we admire... They seem to have that charisma that something extra if only in our eyes...  I do recognize who they are in my life but as I travel in the present chapter of my life none have had the impact on my life like Elohim, Yeshua, and the Holy Spirit... They wrote the book on how to live, and how to love.  They give us hope of a brighter tomorrow for eternity !!! They possess a magnetism that draws us to them like no one else that has ever existed. They have impacted lives since the beginning of time.  They have affected many hearts through the ages... No one else has ever had this lasting power to change lives in such a beautifully inspired way... 

So what is the attraction? What is the charisma that draws me to Him like a butterfly to the flame??  I do believe it's His capacity to LOVE us so deeply. His love knows no boundaries... He has a gift of seeing who we truly are... He separates our poor decisions many call them sins... And yes there is a price to pay for what we do and how we conduct our lives... But He sees the beauty and rawness of our soul... and forgives us at that level.. It is difficult to understand His depth and this type of LOVE... but it is part of His Charisma and His beauty. His power of LOVE shines through like nothing I have ever experienced... there is none like Him...  I want nothing better than to sit at His feet and listen to His sweet voice... His gentleness and LOVE have captured my heart... My soul yearns for His favor... It’s His LOVE that is His MOJO... 

It’s Him, It’s always Him.

Meaning of MOJO - Mojo is defined as good luck, charm, or skill that seems to come from something magical or supernatural. 

That the man of God may be perfect, thoroughly furnished to all good works.  Timothy 11 3:17.

Jesus could no longer openly enter the city but was outside in deserted places, and they came to Him from every direction. (Mark 1:45)

It was heard that He was in the house. Immediately many gathered together so that there was no longer room to receive them, not even near the door. (Mark 2:1,2)

Then Jesus entered a house, and again a crowd gathered so that he and his disciples were not even able to eat. (Mark 3:20)
