When he appeared in human form, he humbled himself in obedience to God and died a criminal’s death on the cross. Therefore, God elevated him to the place of highest honor and gave him the NAME above all over names, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, in heaven and on earth and under the earth. Philippians 2:8-11Jesus is the sweetest name I know….from early childhood.  “Jesus loves me, this I know, for the Bible tells me so….”  I loved the words, “Little ones to Him belong…”  That was not just true when I was a child, but even now, at 85 years of age, this song brings me hope and joy and peace.  I John 4:19 – “We love each other because he loved us first.”  “Oh, how I love Jesus, oh, how I love Jesus, oh, how I love Jesus, because He first loved me, ” is another song.  On the day when Jesus comes again, every knee shall bow, in heaven, on earth and under the earth.  Even those who deny Him with their mouths, with their thoughts and with their actions, will bow their knees and tremble.Jesus is the Almighty, the Messiah, the Redeemer, the Resurrection and the Life, Savior, Shepherd, Son of God, The Way, the Truth and the Life, The Bread of Life, and The Bright Morning Star who lights our way.  There is no OTHER way, but through Jesus to eternal life.Staying in Fellowship (relationship) with Jesus, comes through believing in Jesus, loving one another and obeying God’s commandments!  The most awesome news of all is that Jesus lives within us because the Holy Spirit that He GAVE us, lives in us.  Love is the key.  Our world is filled with un-love, anger and chaos. The Evil One Celebrates a world in unrest when Man hates Man and God.  Our enemy is not Man, flesh and blood, but the Evil One.May you find rest in believing in the name of God’s One and Only Son, Jesus Christ.  May you find peace!And we will receive from him whatever we ask because we obey him and do the things that please him. And this is his commandment: We must believe in the name of his Son, Jesus Christ, and love one another, just as he commanded us. Those who obey God’s commandments remain in fellowship with him, and he with them. And we know he lives in us because the Spirit he gave us lives in us. I John 3:22-24
