Communion experience and thoughts. After receiving the LORD, you become aware of his existence only, nothing else matters. To live a life in union with Christ alone is super satisfying! He is now your universe and you know that you are secure for all eternity.

***Life-Changing Breakthrough*
To realize that Christ is the truth and decide to believe in him is a revelation, an illumination of your heart and mind, and a most precious gift and huge blessing from God. It has to be the most profitable and life-changing breakthrough you can have, for you are now a new creature returning to you heavenly Father for good. Let joy reign in your heart!
***Salvation Assured 100%
We are either saved or lost forever, and Christ is the only one who can save us by delivering us from sin. I am not saying that you have to know Christ to be saved, for there are many who don't know him due to no fault of their own but are good people—surely the Lore will have mercy on them. What I am saying is that if you want to be saved 100% for sure, then you'd better get to know him.

**Preparing to Be Blessed by God
We love to have God bless us, but we need to have the right disposition to receive his blessings. To be ready, be open to him and expect fo receive all the blessings he knows you need. As he blesses you, believe that your life will truly change to bring you ever closer to him. After you are blessed, do not forget to thank the Lord.
***Unchangeable Law
Communion experience. I know that true rest can only come from total abandonment (submission) to Christ. It's just that way.
**Cause of Our Misery
We who were created by God are meant to obey and glorify him always. When we do that, we experience peace and joy. Now you know why we feel restless and unhappy.
***How God Speaks to Us***
God has spoken or perhaps still speaks to a rare few souls audibly. For the majority of us, we "hear" his voice in our hearts. How well you hear him depends upon how much you are in tune with him. If you totally shut him out, then of course you won't hear a thing from him. On the other hand, if you are in full union with him, you do know his will for you always, and that's really hearing from him. All the other thoughts you receive in your heart come from him as well.

***Smart Advice***
You may not be aware of this, even if you believe in the Lord. It is that he not only knows everything about you, he also has a hand in everything that happens to you. This usually becomes clear when you look back. My advice to you is that you become aware of his involvement every present moment of your life. Then you'll accept and appreciate everything that happen to you when it happens.
***Our Own Salvation Comes First***
This is not being self-centered. God wants to save all of us and we cannot help him if we ourselves are not saved yet. We need to be the shining examples for all to see. Our first obedience is to obey the Lord to save ourselves first.
*****Do You Realize That . . .
the more you surrender yourself to God, the freer you feel and become? This is how he has made us!
**Another Good Question
You claim that you believe in God, the God of Christ, but can he depend upon you to do the work for him? In other words, can he trust in you to always do what he wants you to do?
**Another Cause for Joy
Revelation 2.10: "Remain faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life." This is the reward the faithful shall receive from the Lord. It alone is enough to keep us rejoicing unceasingly!
*****In Solitude with God (True Freedom)***
We don't have an oxymoron here, for the Lord is ever present and we cannot possibly exclude him. As a matter of fact, we should always welcome and embrace his holy presence. I enjoy it so much that my solitude with him turns into an exquisitely beautiful experience, knowing that I've been liberated from the world and now belong to him alone—this is true freedom!
**Most Consoling Words
After the Resurrection, Jesus appeared to the eleven disciples to commission them to go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father, and of the Son, and of the holy Spirit, teaching them to observe all that he had commanded them. His last words to them were "Behold, I am with you always, until the end of the age." They were absolutely consoling to all of us.
*****Some Absolutely Serious Words*****
If you don't believe in or accept Christ as your Savior, it's not something you can easily brush aside. For you must be able to prove that he never existed or he is a phony or he just came and died for nothing! Otherwise, you become one most foolish, insensitive, and ungrateful person in existence. You are foolish because you put yourself on the road to self-destruction. (In Matthew 10, Jesus said, Everyone who acknowledges me before others I will acknowledge before my heavenly Father. But whoever denies me before others, I will deny before my heavenly Father.)

***No Christ, No True Joy*****
I know the Lord well enough to declare unequivocally that one can never be truly happy without knowing the God of Christ. Any happiness you find sans Christ is pseudo and short-lived, while the joy of Christ is experienced by the soul and everlasting. You won't know this until you have tasted the Lord yourself.
***Only Two Possible Outcomes***
In Matthew 25:29, Jesus says, "To everyone who has, more will be given and he will grow rich; but from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away." Let me use myself as an example to show you that this totally makes sense. When I first asked the Lord to take away my ego, he responded decisively in a couple of weeks. I didn't expect that and was amazed. I opened up more, giving him more freedom to change me. More results and more amazement until I finally felt in love with the Lord and surrendered to him. Now I am in full union with him. The other part is the going-downhill part. You simply let yourself go in the opposite direction, falling further and further away from God and end up losing your very soul.
