We need to constantly be aware of our character, and if we ever fall behind what God wants us to be we need to get back up again and run into His arms. About guest blogging, thank you so much for allowing us to get to know you. It was MY pleasure, for real...:) (May God continue to use you to teach the younger generation).<br /><br />@Femme Lounge...so many chances...uncountable even. Thanks.<br /><br />@Eyitemi...wow @ the other scenario. Wow. I like that. I guess the point is that no matter how dirty we are when we run to God, He has the ability to wash us. <br /><br />@JustJoxy...God taught me the hard way that no matter what state I'm in, I can still come to Him. There was a time when I kept asking God for forgiveness for the same thing every single day, after a while I thought I couldn't change and God wouldn't forgive. But that was a lie...our Father is always there to wash us from our muddiness. Thank God that phase is over because I changed...:)<br /><br />@Daylight..yes, it is very appropriate to say that God is interested in the muddy us.<br /><br />@Lani...lol @ "I should have listened in Chemistry class."<br /><br />@Harry...I feel as though you've just written what I couldn't express well. Thank you so much. It is true that God cannot stand impurity, therefore anyone who will 'see' God has to come in purity. And that purity can only come through the cleansing by the blood of the Word. Now, to say I "heart" your comment would be an understatement. You've just enlightened us more on the topic.Jennifer A.https://www.blogger.com/profile/06618639466963813761noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33811809.post-55982426030925962092010-04-19T08:59:26.726-04:002010-04-19T08:59:26.726-04:00hmmnn...
Jaycee I dunno how you do this but this ...hmmnn...<br /><br />Jaycee I dunno how you do this but this is really something...<br /><br />First, I love your pure in heart analogy. I think it clearly represents what we as Christians have to deal with on a daily. We are confronted with images from the media sometimes I wonder how I make it through. Jesus is telling us through this scripture that you are blessed when you understand that you we are made pure in Him and that our purity is not by our works but by constantly staying under the covering of the blood of Jesus, the blood that was shed for the atonement of our sins..<br /><br />Second, this shows us the ultimate sacrifice for sins that Jesus did on the cross. We as humans on our own can NEVER be pure and seeing as God is a holy God, He cannot stand anything that is not pure... so what happens... Christ pays the sacrifice for sins, cleansing us in His blood making us pure inside...<br /><br />I could go on and on because there is so much I can say... <br /><br />This is beautiful1Harryhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01167017091835402546noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33811809.post-7899031246200844032010-04-19T06:41:56.257-04:002010-04-19T06:41:56.257-04:00wow.... great perspective + i should have listened...wow.... great perspective + i should have listened in my chemistry classes.<br /><br />But God is great, and it is great He is using you to motivate and inspire me and others.<br /><br />God loves muddy me...

After all, Jesus did say that the physically well didn't need a physician. Only the sick do. He said this to explain why he mingled with the sinners.<br />Thank God for the great love with which he has loved us, calling us his own and bringing us into his light.daylighthttp://wisdompill.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33811809.post-20813507824639468642010-04-19T04:54:28.109-04:002010-04-19T04:54:28.109-04:00Glad God loves me, unconditionally.

Other people, and even our own mids pressure us into thinking we are too unworthy to come into His presence, but like Eyitemi said, we have an open invitation to come before the throne of grace, at any time.

However why readin...A very interesting post Jaycee. However why reading your story, another scenario came to my mind at this point:<br /><br />"Where is my daughter?"<br /><br />Daddy...daddy!!! It was him. He was back. Yes!!!<br /><br />I stood up with my muddy face, muddy hands, and muddy shorts and I began to run back towards the house. Just as I entered through the back door I felt someone grab my right hand. It was my mother.<br /><br />"Where have you been Temisan? I've been looking all over for you?"<br /><br />"Sorry, mother."<br /><br />"Well, you have to take a bath. Your pa can't see you like this."<br /><br />It would have been interesting to see how your Daddy would have responded to you if he had seen you all covered in mud. Three statements leapt at me from the page while I read this section: The first by your Daddy, the second by you and the third by your Mummy:<br /><br />Your Daddy said:<br /><br />"Where is my daughter?"<br /><br />You said:<br /><br />"Daddy...daddy!!! It was him. He was back. Yes!!!"<br /><br />And your Mummy said:<br /><br />"Well, you have to take a bath. Your pa can't see you like this."<br /><br />At the risk of been accused of having an overactive imagination, I was expecting that, what would follow would be your Daddy taking you in his arms, muddy face, muddy clothes and all.<br /><br />What a scene that would have been but we would never know now because Mummy gave you a bath. <br /><br />I can't help thinking that I wish most times as Christians, that we ran to God our Father with the same carefree and unhesitant abandon with which you ran to your Daddy, despite your mud-clad self. <br /><br />I guess that the scripture that talks about coming boldly to the throne of grace applies even when we feel we have made mistakes, or are unworthy, and would rather not come before our Father.<br /><br />Even in our muddy robes, and our unworthiness, the voice of our Heavenly Father would still echo the voice of your Daddy:<br /><br />"Where is my daughter?"<br /><br />and<br /><br />"Where is my son?"Eyitemi Egwuenuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11052179254104034961noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33811809.post-89205228605717472612010-04-19T04:26:14.201-04:002010-04-19T04:26:14.201-04:00This comment has been removed by the author.Eyitemi Egwuenuhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11052179254104034961noreply@blogger.com
