~ Living a Hope Filled Life ~

Hope is one of Gods Greatest Gifts to us.

We all Experience problems and difficulties of some form in Life.   

It's how you 'View' these problems that determines whether you Live a Happy Life or a miserable Life.

This is where Hope comes in. 

If you View your problem in the 'Hope' that things 'Will Get Better', then you will be Living a 'Happier Life' than if you take a Negative attitude and think that things will never change.

When you spend everyday 'Living In Hope' then at least you will be feeling Good and Happy, even if you have problems.

It's always Best to ask God to 'Guide You' with which things to Put Your Hope In, and what things to 'Let Go' of, so you don't Waste Your Time Hoping for the Wrong things, but Stay Focused on the Right things.

Hope gives you Energy and Lifts your Spirit.
It gives you Enthusiasm to 'Be Happy', even in difficult situations.

Look at the options.

~ If you have a problem or difficulty and you spend everyday 'worrying' about it, being 'negative' and letting it 'get you down', it won't do anything to change your problem, it will still be there, but you will have spent all that time feeling miserable and unhappy.

Here's an Alternative Way, (God's Way). 
~ When you Live In 'Hope' that your problem 'Will Get Better' and you spend everyday being Positive with a Joyful Spirit, then even if your problem doesn't 'Fully' get solved, at least you have Enjoyed your Life and Lived Happily.

It's a Much More 'Enjoyable' Way to Live.

And a Wonderful Bonus is that when you Live a 'Hope Filled Life', then things often Do get Better.

When God sees that you are Willing to Live a Hope Filled Life, ('God's Way to Live), and Not Live the a Negative life (the worlds way to Live), and that you Try Your Best to be Positive even if you have problems, then God often releases Wonderful Blessings into your Life.
Problems become Possibilities.

Hope Helps your Mind stay 'Clear' to Find Solutions to problems.

If you're negative, worrying, and Focusing on the 'problem', it only leads to Stress and can often then lead to Health problems.

But when you 'Live In Hope', then it Removes Stress and Replaces it with a Lifted Spirit.

Hope is the 'Healthier Option' to Live Your Life.

Hope is a more Relaxing & Peaceful Way to Live.

When You're Optimistic that things 'Will Get Better', they often Do.

Living a Hope Filled Life is 'The Way' God Created You to Live.

A Life where You Believe things 'Will Get Better'. 
A Life where You 'Trust God' to Help You.
And a Life where You put 'Your Hope' in God's Word.

Hope =  Healthy ~ Optimistic ~ Positive ~ Enthusiasm

Live a Hope Filled Life.

~ Mountains, Mole Hills, and a Fence ~

 The Bible Clearly says that if you have Real, True Faith that is Alive and Living, then You will have the Power Move Mountains. 
In other words You can Conquer Your problems, You can Achieve Great things for God, You can Do the Will of God in Your Life.

   Mountain Moving Faith requires 'Firm' Action. 
It requires 'Positive Attitudes' along with 'Positive Decision Making' in All areas of 'Your Life'.

   Some people though 'Choose' to let their Faith 'Sit On The Fence'.

   They have the Attitude that they like what God has made for them with all of it's Blessings, Freedom, Joy, Peace and Love.
But they also like the look of the 'worlds way' with all of its Wants and Desires, where they just 'Do what They want', 'When They want', and they don't care about the 'Consequences'. They put Themselves and Other People before God.

 If You 'Sit On The Fence' wanting 'Both' God's Way and the worlds way,
then you will Waste your Life just 'Sat On a Fence'. 
You will Go Nowhere and Achieve Nothing that's Important.

'Fence Sitting Faith' doesn't even have the power to move a Mole Hill. 

How do you expect to Move Mountains, Solve Your problems, 
Achieve Your Dreams, Do Great things for God, 
and Overcome the demons of the devil
if You just 'Sit On The Fence' Choosing 'Both Ways'.

You Need to Make a Positive Decision 
~ Choosing 'Only' God's Way is the Only Positive Choice ~ 

Anything else will Not work.
But a Strong, Steadfast and Solid Faith produces 
Joy, Peace, Love and Freedom, that can Only come from God.

When You Choose 'Only' God, the Mountains Will Move.

~ Inside God's Kingdom ~

Living Life 'Inside' God's Kingdom is a Wonderful Way to Live.

Many people Do Live 'Inside' God's Kingdom and they Enjoy a Meaningful & Fulfilling Life.

But many people only Look at God's Kingdom from a 'Distance'. 

They Do Believe that it's a Wonderful Way to Live, and they say many Loving things about it.
They know that they want to Live 'Inside' God's Kingdom, but they Never actually 'Go In'. 

They just Look from a Distance. They get 'Distracted' by the 'worlds way' to Live, and by 'Other People'. They stay on the 'worlds' Wide Path, instead of taking the Narrow Gate 'Into' God's Kingdom.

There Really is a Big Difference in how You Experience 'Life' depending on whether You stay on the Path, or You go 'Inside' God's Kingdom.

A Great way to understand this is with a Path through a Forest.

My Wife & I have been on Many Wonderful walks in the Beautiful Scottish Highlands, and we Enjoy walking in the Forests.

For many years we walked on the 'Man Made' Paths through the Forests, and a lot of them were 'Flat, Wide' Paths that were easy to walk on.

For a long time we 'Thought' we were Experiencing the Forests in 'All Their Fullness'. We could See the Trees and Hear the Birds Singing, we breathed in the Fresh Air, and it was all Very Lovely.

But when we looked 'Into' the Trees, we could see that the Forests were 'Very Deep'. There was areas of the Forests that were 'Far Away' that we were Not Experiencing from the Path.

We were only Looking at it from a 'Distance'. 

The Forest was 'Welcoming' us, and our Hearts were Leading us to 'Go In'. 

We started to look for a way to 'Go In' to the Forest, as there were no Paths going 'Into' it. 
Usually the 'Man Made' paths that we had been walking on have got trenches at the sides to drain the water away, and the Forests are usually Mature Grown and have got Lots of Bushes, Shrubs, Bracken etc, growing at the sides of the Paths.

But every so often there will be a 'Narrow' gap through the Bushes, giving an Entrance Into the Forest.

I remember the first time I noticed a gap to 'Go In'. There was a Steep Banking at the side of the 'Man Made' Path we were on. It had Bushes & Shrubs all along it and a drainage trench between the Path and the Banking.

I saw a small gap in the Bushes just wide enough to go through.

I said to my Wife, “I'm Going In”. 

I jumped across the trench, up onto the banking and climbed up through the gap. I could see the 'Deep Forest'. 
So I steadied myself on the banking and held my arm out to Help my Wife jump across. She jumped up onto the banking and we 'Went In'. 

As we walked 'Into' the Forest, we both a got a Wonderful feeling Deep in our Souls. It's difficult to put into words how Amazing it was. 
My Wife described it as , “It felt like the Trees were giving us a Big Loving Hug”. 
I agree, it Really was Very Special.

The ground felt 'Soft & Spongy' under our feet as we Stood on 'God's Natural Ground', instead of on the Hard 'Man Made' Path.

It felt Very, Very Peaceful as we simply Stood in 'Gods' Creations'.

At that point we could still see the Path that we were stood on just moments before, but there was a 'Big Difference' in how we were now Experiencing the Forest. We were now 'Inside' it.

We continued walking further 'Into' the Forest. There were fallen branches to climb over, Tree trunks to walk in between, and big branches to duck under. 
But it was 'Massively' More Interesting than walking on the Flat 'Wide' Man Made Path.

Being 'In' the Forest was Much Better than just Looking at the Forest.

There was no Path to walk on showing us were to go. 
We were 'Free to Explore'. And God was Lovingly Guiding our Steps.

We spent a Long time 'Slowly' walking around 'In' the Forest and Enjoying the Beauty of God's Creations.

We came to an area 'Deep Inside' the Forest where the Trees opened out a bit and the Sunlight Shone through and 'Lit Up' the Lovely Green Moss that covered the ground.

We Paused, and just 'Stood Quietly'. 

We got a Wonderful sense that we were in a Place where no other human beings had been for Many, Many years.
It was Undisturbed by people. 
And Nature had been 'Growing & Living' in The Way God Created it to Be.

As we Stood there Quietly, we felt a 'Deep Connection' With God.

There was No 'worldly' Noises or Distractions. 

~ It was just us and God Together ~

It was a Truly Beautiful Moment.

Ever since then, whenever we go for a walk in the Forest, we try to go 'Inside' the Forest, and not just walk on the 'Man Made' Paths.

We Always treat the Forest & God's Beautiful Creations with a Lot of Respect, as we Love Nature Very Much, and more Importantly we Love God Very Much.

We've Enjoyed Many Wonderful Moments walking 'Peacefully & Quietly' In the Forests. 

Sometimes we've spent almost a full day walking around 'Inside' the Forests, and not seen or heard another person.

There are no Paths showing which way to go, and one of the times we were in the Forest it was getting late and we knew it would be going dark soon.
So we started heading back. But we didn't know which way to go.
There was quite a few areas with a Lot of fallen branches, and the ground was Very wet and soggy. It made it Very difficult to cross.

It was getting later and nobody knew we were in the Forest.
We tried a few different routes, but each time there was something blocking our way. We reached a point where we literally didn't know where to go.

So we simply Did the Best thing to Do in situations like that, 
we 'Asked God to Guide us'. 

We 'Listened & Followed' His Guidance, and it wasn't long before we were back in an area where we knew where we were again. 
We even had time to Enjoy a Good look around before it went dark.

There have been other times when we've been walking 'In' the forest, that we've gone so 'Deep' Into the Forest that we've 'Discovered' things that we've Never seen before.

We've Experienced Many Nature Blessings 'Deep Inside' the Forests that even some of the Professional Nature People have Never Experienced.

There are some things that can Only be 'Experienced & Discovered' by getting 'Far Away' from the modern 'worlds way' of Being.

God's Word says in (Jeremiah 33:3), that He will,
“Show You Great and Mighty Things which You Do Not Know”.

And He Will, He Really Will.

But You need to be Willing to 'Get Away' from the 'worlds way' for Him to Show You them.

For many years my Wife and I 'Thought' that we were Experiencing the 'Fullness of the Forest' as we walked 'Through' them on the 'Man Made' Paths.

We Believed that we were 'In' the Forest because the Path went 'Through' it.
And that's true to some extent.

But we could Only Go where the 'Man Made' Paths Took us.

There were 'Limits' to what we could 'Experience' from the Paths.

We could See & Hear things, and it was Lovely, but we were Not Experiencing the 'Fullness of the Forest'. 

We only 'Truly Experienced' that when we went 'Deep Inside' the Forests.

~  ~  ~

In a similar way, that's what the 'Kingdom of God' is like.

Many people 'Think' they are Experiencing the 'Fullness of God'. 
But really they're only looking from a 'Distance'. 

They might read the Bible, say Prayers, watch Godly programs, maybe even go to Church, they might even Preach.

These things are all Very Good, and to an extent Yes they will be Experiencing God.

 But if it's done in the 'worlds way' of Doing things, if it's just 'Surface Level Faith' and especially if it's done for show, then they will Not be 'Experiencing' the 'Fullness of God'. 

There's 'Only One Way' to Experience the 'Fullness of God'. 

And that is by forming a 
'Direct Relationship with Jesus Christ', God's Son.

Jesus Himself said, “No one comes to the Father except through Me”. 
(John 14:6). 

Jesus is the Gate 'Into' God's Kingdom.

Many people 'Think' they're Following Jesus, but they're 'Following People'. 
You can't Follow Jesus Through 'Other People'. 
 It needs to be a Personal 'One on One' Relationship.

The Disciple's of Jesus each had their Own 'Personal' One on One Relationship with Jesus.

They didn't go Through the 'Other Disciples' to have their Relationship with Jesus.
They each had a Deep & Meaningful 'Direct' Relationship with Him.

And by Doing that, they 'Experienced the 'Kingdom of God'. 

When 'You' have a 'Direct One on One' Relationship with Jesus, then when You read the Bible, You will have a Better Understanding of the Character of God, and You'll gain more Wisdom from God's Word.

When 'You' are 'Fully Committed' to Jesus, then when You Pray, You will have a Better Connection to God, because 
Jesus 'Is' our 'Connection to God'. 

When Jesus is 'Your Solid Foundation', then if You watch Godly programs or go to Church, then Jesus will Help You 'Learn & Grow' in Your Faith.

He will also 'Shine His Light' so 'You' can see who are the 'True Followers' of Jesus, and who are the Fakes.

There are Many Wonderful Preachers and True Believers who Do Great things for God.
But unfortunately there are Many 'Deceivers' who Pretend to be Believers.

That's why it's so 'Important' to have a 'Direct' One on One Relationship with Jesus Himself.
Jesus will NEVER Deceive You.

So I Encourage 'You' to 'Step Off'  the 'People Path', and go 'Deep Inside' the 'Kingdom of God'.

It might Seem like You're 'Close to God' when You are around 'Other Believers'. And if they are 'True Believers' then to some extent, Yes You probably will be. But just Beware that there are 'Deceivers in Disguise'.

There's nothing wrong with spending Some of Your time with other 'True Believers'. 

But when 'You' are on the 'People Path', You can only go where the 
'Path' Takes You.
There are 'Limits' to How Much of God You will Experience from the 
'People Path'. 

Over the past 20 years I've seen 'Many' people spend so much of Their Time on the 'People Path' that they reach a point where they 'Truly Believe' that they 'Need' People.
But the 'Truth' is, they Only 'Need' God.

It's only when You 'Get Away' from the 'Noises & Distractions' of  'Other Peoples Ways', and You go 'Deep Inside' the Kingdom of God, where it's just 'You and God Together', that 'You' will then Experience the 
'True Wonders of God'.

You' will Experience a Freedom to Explore 'God's Way', that You have Never Experienced before.

“He Will Show 'You' Great & Mighty Things that You Do Not Know”. 

It's when You are 'Deep Inside' the Kingdom of God, that 'New Discoveries' are made.

God might even Reveal things about His Kingdom to 'You' Personally that nobody else has ever known. 
WOW, that's Exciting.

From my own Personal Experience, God has Revealed Wonderful things to me when I have been spending 'Quality Quiet Time' with God.

Try to find a Place and a Time when You can Regularly be Alone With God, away from All the 'worldly & people' Noises & Distractions.

The world is 'Loud' and 'In You Face'. 

But God is 'Quiet' and 'Gentle'. 

He communicates with us in a  “Still Small Voice”, 
(1 Kings 19:12).

God wants to have a Deep & Meaningful 'Close Relationship' with 'You', where You can Enjoy 'The Wonders of His Kingdom'. 

He wants 'You' to Personally Experience & Discover 
His 'Tender Love', His 'Gentle Peace', and His 'Wonderful Joy'. 

So 'Step Off' the Wide 'People Path',
and Step Deep 'Inside God's Kingdom'. 

God Will 'Welcome' You with a Big Loving Hug.

~ The Best Part of Life ~

If somebody was to ask You 'What's the Best Part of Your Life', 
~ what would You say ? 

~  ~  ~

Before I started my Wonderful Journey with Jesus, if somebody had asked me that question, I probably would have said something 'Meaningless' like some kind of 'worldly' Thing, that's Not at all the Best Part of Anything.

But at that time I would have 'Thought' that 'worldly' things were the Best.

It's only since I've been Following the 'Wonderful Way of Jesus' that I've realised what is actually the 'Best'.

A while ago My Wife did asked me that question,
 “What's the Best part of your Life” ?    

There was No doubt in my Mind, I knew Straight Away the answer which is,
 'My Relationship with God & Jesus'. 

That Truly is the Best Part of my Life.

It feels Very Special to have a Relationship with God, the 'Almighty Creator' of Everything. 
It's Fantastic to have a Relationship with God's 'Wonderful Loving Son' who Gave Up His Own Life to Save Mine, (and Yours).

It's a Wonderful Feeling knowing that God & Jesus want to have a Relationship with me.  
WOW, that's Special, that's what is Truly the 'Best'. 

'And they want to have a Relationship with You'.

We are All able to Enjoy a Relationship with God.
It was made Possible because of the Amazing and Loving Sacrifice that Jesus made for us on the Cross. A Sacrifice that 'Nobody Else' has Ever made.

The way to Enjoy a Relationship with God is 'Through Jesus'. 

And we need to have a Close Relationship with Jesus to be able to do that.  

I've Discovered that I'm able to Experience these Close & Meaningful Relationships by 'Being Open' to God & Jesus, and to God's Wonderful Way' to Live my Life. To put my 'Trust' in God, and Not in people.

Most Importantly I've realised that it needs to be 'Only' God's Way to Live.
'God's Way' and the 'worlds way' do Not mix.

So what is my Relationship with Jesus ?   Well it's a number of things,

~ He's my Best Friend, He's my Strength, a Wonderful Comforter, 
He's my Guiding Star, my Teacher, He's my Protector, my Support, 
He's my Encourager, my Hope. Jesus is my 'Light' in the world. 

All Relationships need to be 'Two Way'. I need to Do my Part,

~ I'm a Disciple of Jesus, His Student, I'm His Follower, His Apprentice, 
I'm God's Hands to do His Wonderful works here on earth,
I'm a Channel for God's Peace to others, I'm 'Fully Open' for 
Jesus to Live through me to Help Comfort & Love others. 

It's a Wonderful Relationship, and it's Freely Available to 'You'. 

God & Jesus Truly are 'The Best Part of my Life'.

So I ask 'You' the same question,

“What's The Best Part of Your Life” ?

~ Give It All To God ~

Sometimes when You and I are trying to 'Help' someone or 'Help' a cause, we can sometimes do it in a Way that ends up with the situation being worse. 

Even when we 'Truly Believe' in the cause we are trying to 'Help', it can sometimes have a negative effect. 

I recently tried to 'Help' a cause that I 'Very Strongly Believe' that God Guided me about.
But I went about some of it in the 'Wrong Way'.

I 'Sincerely Apologise' for the 'Wrong Way' that I did it.

I have asked God to 'Clearly Guide' me what 'He' would like me to Do.

It 'Clearly' came to me to,
'Give It All To God' and 'Walk Away'. 

There are times when we need to 'Stand Firm' in the causes that we 'Believe' in and are trying to 'Help'. 

But there are times when we simply need to 'Give It All To God', 
and 'Walk Away'. 

God can deal with Every situation a 
'Lot Better' than we can.

Ask God to give You 'Clear Guidance' of when to 
'Stand Firm', 
and when to 
'Give It All To God'. 

~ The Grace of Jesus  ~

Thank You Jesus for Believing in me,
You See All that I Can Be.

Thank You for Loving me with Your Whole Heart,
A Love that's been there right from the Start.

You are my Saviour, You are my Light,
You're the True Teacher of wrong and Right.

Let Your Love Shine Through me,
Shine Bright for All to See.

You kept knocking on a door that was closed,
A Heart full of Love waiting to be exposed.

I'm so Grateful that You didn't give up on me,
What a Wonderful Journey this will Be.

Thank You Lord for Loving me,
Everyday You Show me All I Can Be.
 
Thank You for this Beautiful Gift of Grace You've Given me,
I'm Willing to be Restored to Who God Created me to Be. 

~ Always Shining  ~

The night sky is Full of Beautiful Shining Stars.

Sometimes when you look up into the sky you can see Millions is Stars twinkling in all the Glory.

There are times though when the storms come and it seems like there are are no Stars in the sky, all you See is the dark storm.

But no matter how big the storm is, the Stars are 'Always Shining'.

God Created the Stars with a 'Plan' and He 'Set Them In Place'.

Just because the storms come, it Doesn't change God's Plan, the Stars 'Always Shine'.

Every storm there has ever been has 'Passed By'. 

No storm lasts forever.

And when the storms 'Pass By', you can once again see the 'Stars Shining' in their Amazing Awe & Wonder. 

The same God who Created those Wonderful Stars, also Created Beautiful & Wonderful 'Blessings' for Your Life.

Sometimes you can See Your Blessings clearly like Twinkling Stars that 
Light Up Your Life.

But there are times when the storms of Life come, and it 'seems' like there are no Blessings in Your Life. Sometimes all you See is darkness.

But just like the Stars, 'Your Blessings' are 'Always Shining'.

God Created Your Blessings with a 'Plan' and He 'Set Them In Place'.

No storms of Life can ever change 'God's Plan' for Your Blessings.

And when the storms 'Pass By' (which they Always do), then Your Blessings will be revealed to You in All their Wonderful Glory.

God Loves You and He has a Plan for Your Life 
that's Full of Blessings.

No matter how dark or stormy Your Life might seem,
God has Blessings 'Set In Place' for You,
and they are 'Always Shining'.

~ Growing Happily & Peacefully Together ~

I'm often 'Inspired by Nature' in many Wonderful ways, especially in the Beautiful Highlands of Scotland.

One of the Inspirations was whilst walking around a Peaceful Forest. 

I noticed Tall Trees that were 'Well Established' and had probably been there for Hundreds of years.

Next to them were 'Younger Trees', and they were Happily Growing with the 'Well Established Trees'.         

There were Many Different Varieties of Trees including Pines, Beech, Spruces, Larch, Yew Trees & many others, all Growing Happily & Peacefully Together.

Every Tree was Different in it's own Unique way, yet they were all Growing Together to Create a 'Beautiful and Peaceful' environment.

There was no arguments about who's been there longer, no jealousy between Trees wanting to be like other Trees, no fighting over who's got the best position in the forest, there was no stealing each others soil, no childish name calling and no lies & manipulation.

All the Trees were living in 'Harmony' with each other.

Every Individual Tree was simply 'Being' what God Created it to 'Be'. 
And because of that, the Forest became a Beautiful, Peaceful and Inspiring place to be.

It's no wonder that Wildlife choose to live in the Forests.

The Trees were living Happily and Peacefully Together, and that's how God Created 'people' to be as well. 

If we all just 'Be' who God Created us to 'Be', then we can all live in Peace and Harmony with each other. 

God Created us All to 'Be' in the 'Image of God'.

There's no Greater Harmony than that.

When we put our Faith in God (and Only God) we can all be like a Beautiful Forest, Growing Happily & Peacefully Together.         

We can Create a Welcoming & Inspiring 'Forest of Faith', just like the Trees. 

When we all simply Live our Lives how God 'Intended' us to live, 
then people will say:

It's no wonder that people choose to Live In 
'The Forest of Faith'

 Live 'Like a Tree' and Help to Create      
   Gods Forest of Faith.

~ Checking the Mail ~

If you use email you will probably check your 'Inbox' regularly to look for important messages. 

If you leave it for too long without checking it then you could end up  missing important emails.

A far more Important thing to check is the messages God sends to Your Mind everyday.

You need to regularly 'Log In' through Prayer and open the 'Inbox' of Your Mind to receive the messages that God sends You. 
If you don't then you could easily miss some important information that God is trying to communicate to You.

When you have received Your message from God you can then 'Reply' through Prayer and Thanks giving.

Sometimes it's good to 'Forward' the message to others and Share the Blessing that God has given you.

Regularly check the Inbox of Your Mind
for 'God's Mail'
and stay in communication with 
Your Loving God.

~ Baptism ~

Many people are Baptised as a baby (also known as Christening).

It's Good to be Baptised as babies because we're Welcomed into 'God's Family' at the Beginning of our Lives, which gives us a Good Start to Life.

The problem though is that when we're Baptised as a baby, it's not from our 'Own Personal Choice'.

Because we didn't make a 'Personal Choice' to Follow Jesus 'Ourselves' then we can often get 'Misled' by the 'ways of the world'.

This happened to me in my early teens and I ended up making Many Mistakes and Wasting a Lot of my Life living in the 'wrong way'.

Thankfully in my mid 20's  I came across the Wonderful & Inspiring 
'Hour of Power' (TV Church), and I was Blessed with Learning the Truth about who God & Jesus 'Really Are', instead of the Corrupted version of who the 'world' says they are.

My Wonderful 'Journey with Jesus' began and my Life started to be Transformed for the Better. (The story of my Journey is on our website under the title 'My Journey').

After my Wife and I got Married we both wanted to Grow in our Faith and to Enjoy a more Meaningful Relationship with God & Jesus.

We Decided we would Love to be Baptised as Adults. 
We had been Baptised/Christened as babies but we felt we wanted to make the 'Personal Choice' Ourselves as Adults.

There are different ways to be Baptised. Some people like to be fully immersed in water and some people prefer to have water sprinkled on their forehead. Some Baptisms are in Churches, some are outdoors in Rivers or Lakes. It doesn't matter how or where you're Baptised, the Important thing is that you make a Genuine Commitment to God, Jesus & the Holy Spirit, and that you are Faithful to that Commitment.

My Wife and I were Very Blessed with a Wonderful Baptism. It was an Evening Baptism just for the two of us, and the Vicar 'Very Kindly' let us make it Personal to us. It was Meaningful & Special for us.

As well as the Baptism we decided to go on a short holiday to the Beautiful Highlands of Scotland so we could spend 'Quality Quiet' time with God & Jesus, as we both feel 'Closest to God' when Surrounded by Nature.

We stayed in a wooden lodge overlooking Loch Tay, and spent a Lot of time walking around the Beautiful Countryside.

We stopped at a Lovely Loch (Lake) surrounded by Mountains and Trees and there was nobody there but us.

We spent some Lovely time Together, and then I went for a short Quiet walk. I noticed a small Fishing Boat that someone had left moored on the Loch Shore. I stood there thinking about the different times when the Disciples had been Fishing and were with Jesus on the Shore of a Lake.

I was Imagining what it must have been like for them to have actually been 'With Jesus' in Person. As I stood there I felt an Amazing Sense as though Jesus was stood there 'With Me'.

It was a Wonderful Experience of Pure Peace, Love & Joy. It was such an Amazing feeling that no words can describe it well enough.
It's a Wonderful Memory that I Treasure, and it Fills me with Joy.

As I'm writing this, I realised that because I made a Genuine Commitment to Jesus, I was Blessed with a Wonderful Experience 'With Him'.

Whatever your level of Faith is, I Encourage You to make 
Your Own 'Personal Choice' to be Baptised,
 and make a Genuine Commitment to God, Jesus & the Holy Spirit.

I Truly Believe that You will then be Blessed with
' Your Own' Wonderful Experience 'With Them'.
