Relief & Development

We are two days into Relief and Development and we are seeing how this is a big issue in our christian church. I never realized the difference between them before. I am thankful for the teaching that we are learning, but the God encounters have been amazing! I had been struggling with some internal mental attacks, but through the grace of God I have been delivered. Now I know what it feels like to have the freedom in Christ that the Bible talks about. Every time that something hard happens I look at the scriptures and remember what the Lord said about the correction of His children. The Lord desires the very best for us, and a lot of times that takes spiritual correcting for the Father himself. I now feel the presence of the Holy Spirit in my body, and I can feel the love of the Father, and the presence of Jesus around me and my family. As the psalmist David said, "My soul longs after you" I know what that longing feels like. There is no place on this earth that can fulfil that longing, except in the presence of God. I just pray this love, and fire is never quenched in our souls.
