Dear Friends in Christ,
I hope this letter finds you well; and if not good, with the grace to get through all things well! These things that come against us are not to harm us, but to help us grow to get to what God is calling us to; to grow to a higher level of understanding of Whom God is! Our mind, will and emotions are being transformed into the image of God! WOW! I hope this is a blessing to you today! God has called us Higher; let’s say, Yes! Lord, I am listening! Learn to rest in the storm; and what does this look like? Growth in your relationship with Christ, my friend!
As you listen to this song, “So will I,” I hope you see the face of Jesus appear in your situation! The God of Salvation! The God of Creation! The God who made you; and The God who loves you!!! We are called to a Higher to Level with God to understand what Worship truly is to us!!! Friends, If we get this, we will never be the same!
Through it all, it takes a negative and a positive to generate the energy to see the Light! You weren’t meant to simply get saved! Yes, first we must be Born-Again in the Holy Spirit of God through the Blood of Christ Jesus, whom has been Resurrected from death to Life!!! And, so, in Christ, are we!
So, will you ? Will you say, Yes, Lord, I will trust you! I will worship you! I will love you! Yes, I will go ahead and say to you what I had to grow in my understanding in: It is okay to love God! In fact, once you get to know God as your Father, love is a natural and supernatural response, because when we come to know and believe in the love God has for us; we understand how much God has 1st loved us!
Listen to this song, close your eyes (if you are not driving) & breathe in the Presence of God as you seek to see the Face of Jesus in the Glory of the Christ!
God the Father, God the Son, God the Holy Spirit cannot be separated, because they are one of Three; and three in One … So, in Christ are we united in Christ!
I hope you paused to take this time to ponder the God of Creation … & As He continues to Speak to you, I pray this is a blessing to your growth in Christ Today!
As God loves you & calls you deeper still … There is SO MUCH MORE; but God gives us a little at a time! Will you set aside something today to hear what God wants to say to you Today?

Daily Devotion to God’s Holy Word
You Have Called Me Higher, By Karen Rowe
This is a time to worship! What does worship look Like? LET GO to raise your hands! Does this make you feel uncomfortable? To replace thoughts of man with thoughts of Jesus Risen!!!
And worship looks like: In any personal struggle TO obey! Prov 16:3 “Roll your thoughts UPON the Lord! Commit & TRUST them WHOLLY to God & HE WILL …
He will cause your thoughts to become agreeable to His will, and] so shall your plans be established and succeed.”
After the struggle, we can see God’s heart in every way!!!
In the struggle we can discover the beauty of grace in the midst of the storm! And HE SPEAKS! Why do we question God for the Manna He Gives? What is God sustaining your life by that doesn’t feel comfortable to your flesh?
God really spoke this to me the night before last as I was asking God…How long must we? God SPOKE, Why do you question the manna I give you to sustain your life?
Friends, I am in so much awe of God right now!!! Something is shifting! This is what growth feels like as we grow level BY level!
Yes! The Voice of Truth is calling out to us! We choose to listen to the Voice of Truth!
Strength comes by endurance! What are you enduring? In our weakness is where we discover the strength & beauty of Grace; God with us!!!
God For us! God With us! God In us! Whew!!!!
Friends, if we grow in Jesus (The Truth) our faith will never be the same!
Want a picture of your faith? God gave you a corn seed (actually a mustard seed sized faith). You plant it in good soil. God grows it! The LIFE is in the SEED! God did that!!! The Word of God is the seed! The soil is our heart; that God is perfecting for good growth! Go ahead & trust God to obey Him! Be prepared to GROW! Clear the weeds out of your heart and get to pure harvest!
Sure, It hurts our flesh to seek the spiritual life to burst out of our shell, but only for a little while ♡ To decrease in our stubborn pride is to increase in the freedoms in Christ!!! Oh Glory be to God! If we get this we will never be the same! The spiritual balance to our life is priceless & comes by growing in obedience in the Truth, whom God loves us enough to give us!
The God of Creation teaches us what is right and what is wrong! Seek to be right with God!
Let your worship arise!!! As a seed bursts wide-open to grow in the True & Living Light of God; become whom Jesus in you makes you to be!
God will never let you down! And at just the right time, if we choose,we will see what faith becomes by the Grace of God!!!!
So Will I !
Growing by grace day by day …
Love in Christ, Karen Rowe
TILL NEXT TIME!
TILL NEXT TIME! “GRACE AND PEACE TO YOU FROM GOD OUR FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.”
The address in the Bible is found in 2 Corinthians 1:2, and this is the NIV today.
