Jenny was a bright-eyed, pretty five-year-old girl. One day when she and her mother were checking out at the grocery store, Jenny saw a plastic pearl necklace priced at $2.50. How she wanted that necklace and when she asked her mother if she would buy it for her, her mother said, "Well, it is a pretty necklace, but it costs an awful lot of money. I'll tell you what. I'll buy you the necklace, and when we get home we can make up a list of chores that you can do to pay for the necklace. And don't forget that foryour birthday Grandma just might give you a whole dollar bill, too. Okay?"

Jenny agreed, and her mother bought the pearl necklace for her. Jenny worked on her chores very hard every day, and sure enough, her Grandma gave her a brand new dollar bill for her birthday. Soon Jenny had paid off the pearls.

How Jenny loved those pearls. She wore them everywhere - to kindergarten,bed, and when she went out with her mother to run errands. The only time she didn't wear them was in the shower - her mother had told her that they would turn her neck green.

Now Jenny had a very loving daddy. When Jenny went to bed, he would get up from his favorite chair every night and read Jenny her favorite story.One night when he finished the story, he said, "Jenny, do you love me ?"
"Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you," the little girl said.
"Well, then, give me your pearls."
"Oh! Daddy, not my pearls !" Jenny said. "But you can have Rosie, my favorite doll. Remember her ? You gave her to me last year for my birthday. And you can have her tea party outfit, too. Okay ?"
"Oh no, darling, that's okay." Her father brushed her cheek with a kiss."Good night, little one."

A week later, her father once again asked Jenny after her story, "Do you love me ?"
"Oh yes, Daddy, you know I love you."
"Well, then, give me your pearls."
"Oh, Daddy, not my pearls! But you can have Ribbons, my toy horse. Do you remember her ? She's my favorite. Her hair is so soft, and you can play with it and braid it and everything. You can have Ribbons if you want her, Daddy," the little girl said to her father.
"No, that's okay," her father said and brushed her cheek again with a kiss. "God bless you, little one. Sweet dreams."

Several days later, when Jenny's father came in to read her a story, Jenny was sitting on her bed and her lip was trembling."Here, Daddy," she said, and held out her hand. She opened it and her beloved pearl necklace was inside. She let it slip into her father's hand. With one hand her father held the plastic pearls and with the other he pulled out of his pocket a blue velvet box. Inside of the box were real, genuine, beautiful pearls. He had them all along. He was waiting for Jenny to give up the cheap stuff so he could give her the real thing.

So it is with our Heavenly Father. He is waiting for us to give up the cheap things in our lives so that He can give us beautiful treasure. Isn't God good? Are you holding onto things which God wants you to let go of? Are you holding onto harmful or unnecessary partners, relationships, habits and activities which you have become so attached to that it seems impossible to let go?

Sometimes it is so hard to see what is in the other hand but do believe this one thing.........
God will never take away something without giving you something better in its place.

We Love by Faith

2005-03-21T16:30:00.000+08:00

We should love one another (1 John 3:11, NLT).

Dear friends:

The huge, beautiful ballroom of the Marriott Hotel in Chicago was
crowded to capacity with more than 1,300 college students and Campus Crusade
for Christ staff.

The spiritually hungry students seemed to hang onto my every word as I
explained one of the most exciting spiritual discoveries I had ever
made.

For years I had spoken on the subject of love. I had a beautiful
four-point outline:

First, God loves us unconditionally.

Second, we are commanded to love others -- God, our neighbors, and even
our enemies.

Third, we are incapable of loving others in our own strength.

Fourth, we can love others with God's love.

But, as in the case of most sermons on love, something was missing.
Later, early one morning some years ago, I was awakened from a deep
sleep. I felt impressed to get up, open my Bible, and kneel to read and
pray. What I discovered during the next two hours has since enriched my
life and the lives of tens of thousands of others.

In that life-changing time of fellowship with the Lord, I was given a
fifth point for my future sermons on love: We love by faith!

Suddenly I was able to more clearly see that love is not a mushy
feeling, but a decision -- an act of our wills. We can "choose" to love, and
we do so "by faith." We may not feel like it. A person may have hurt
us and even hate us, but we can love that person by faith. And we know
that God operates through our faith.

Previously I shared about when I spoke to a group of pastors on the
importance of God's supernatural love and loving by faith. One of the
pastors came up to me after the meeting and said, "Six months ago, there
was a man in my church who opposed everything I wanted to do. Frankly,
I couldn't stand the man, and he couldn't stand me. We were at an
impasse, and the church was being split because of it. I heard you speak
on 'loving by faith,' and I determined that I would love him. I began
to claim God's love for him by faith. Six months have passed, and that
man is now my very best friend."

God's love is real and His power to love people through us by our faith
is also real.

"Love never fails" (1 Corinthians 13:8, NIV.)

Yours for helping to fulfill the Great Commission
each year until our Lord returns,

Bill Bright

one way JESUS >>>
