Let Me Touch Your Heart

By KB

Not just any encouragement will lift me up and guild me, Im in need of some real encouragement, living, lasting encouragement. Encouragement I can count on and trust not just for today but for my entire life. Im in need of those true words that will outlive me.

Can there be such a thing?

The writer this book wishes to only be known just as KB. This person truly believes its not the servant that truly encourages but instead, the living God through His servants. God wants you to look to Him and Him only. Through this you will know that He (God that is) is forever reaching out to you. Daily, you may rise with many thoughts on your mind along with many duties to perform in a day. However, I wish you to know this truth. One thing and one thing only stays on Gods mind and in His heart. YOU.

This book is dedicated to You.

All who wish to reach past themselves for an everlasting

encouragement in our living God.

Today, I can not see, for if I could I would be able to make my way out from this horrible place. I’m not sure from this point in what to do and who to see. I know there’s got to be at least a glimmer of hope out there somewhere but where should I turn I do not know. All I know is, encouragement is out there for me to grab somewhere, from someone alive. Please come to me, please, I need you.

Encouragement

Since the beginning of time, till the end of all living things man will always need encouragement, hope and a promising voice. One that will say don’t give up and give the hope you need to continue on your righteous quest in life.

Off the top, meaning in good intent, encouragement is welcomed in all forms. However, you must ask yourself, which of this act of hope and continuance can I really trust in? At what point do I take these encouraging words and run with them or let them go? You must also ask, can I rely on these words as surely a never ending anchor in my travels, (in which I need) or is this just for a moment, never to depend on again?

Encouragement is good, but it really needs to last past the point of the end of time. In this, generations to come, they to will have a sure word that will lead and rescue them from all troubles, failures and sit backs. Giving them the strength needed to go on, while refreshing their soul for the next turn in life. Knowing that the very word they got and now carry will without a doubt out live them.

This is where God comes in. If you have been walking with the Lord for a while sooner or later you will know that you can count on His every word. If you haven’t, you will come to know His truths. The reason why all of God’s truths anchor’s your every need, with revealing everlasting results. As long as you believe, you can expect to go fourth knowing that He will, somehow pull you through.

I like to say, God is love, love is passion and passion encouragement for every need in life. Have you ever seen, heard or read God to say, I don’t know what to do about this? Or, I can’t help you? Would He not cease to be God if He could not help, lead, or protect. You search the question for yourself, if His banner is love, (and it is) how much of His word to me can I count on?

The only thing that God requires is that we would seek Him truthfully and honestly. Is that not what we want from one another? Don’t we all desire an honest encounter? Or do we desire to be played the fool? I think not, especially when one finds himself of greatly needed encouragement.

Just as serious as the situation, so should be the encouragement. Because it’s the situation that is known to cripple a man, but the right encouragement alone will rise him up. The only right encouragement is the lasting one and the only lasting one can only come from God. He has reasoned (God that is) you have willingly put your entire life worth into His hands, why should He not vow to always be there for you?

Through the good times and bad God has vowed to be there. As a matter of fact, we learn of Him in the bible (His inspired word) that He never sleeps. Now, how this is to be, I do not know, but I do believe it. For we also learn that His ways are not of ours and His thoughts are of no caparisoned. The only way that we (man that is) can limit God from working in our lives for His good will and ours is to not believe.

His encouraging word to us is always there and will never cease in bringing us up. God is everlasting to everlasting, therefore, so is His word. The question is and only question to and for you, will you trust in His every word?

The seeking of Encouragement from God starts with you, the result of such Encouragement always ends with our living God.

With much Love

And I will wait on Jehovah, who hides His face from the house of Jacob;

and I will look for Him.

Isaiah 8; 17

Lord I have waited and still do I wait. The night turns into day and then night again. For once it was a day and then before my very eyes a week came and went. Now as I walk in wait for you, the years are my friend. For now I know there is no time of waiting that you desire. Neither is any period of stillness you are looking for.

For your eyes are on the one that trust regardless of days, weeks, months and years. I have learned being with you, trust will have no time limit, just as your love for me has no boundaries.

Another thing I have learned from you my Lord! Like a maiden; She hides but in a way that she also maybe found. She runs, but not vary far, because she also wants to be caught. In this I have found that my love for you is like that man’s love for his maiden.

So I keep my hands at the ready and my eyes in clear focus. I forbid handling anything that may keep my hands free from catching you. And know, all that is before me is but a shadow, which I may see clearly to find you.

Therefore my Lord, know this, and mark it well. I will wait, but also I will look. For I believe in my heart that as surly as you live, time will come that I lay hold and say, hide thy face from me no more.

Be Encouraged

Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the LORD my God.

Jos 14;8

The numbers of those who melt the hearts towards God’s possibilities in the lives or believers are endless, while the encouragers grow few.

Where do you fit in all of this?

Then the word of the LORD came unto me, saying,

Before I formed thee in the belly I knew thee; and before thou camest forth out of the womb I sanctified thee, and I ordained thee a prophet unto the nations.

Jeremiah 1: 4-5

Before you had taken your first breath, God had already known you. And before the light from the sun had ever reached your face, God would know your life’s span. Theology of Christ teaches that before a thought from man reaches his mind concerning God, God had already known of this man. So, what you do is of no secret to Him, and where you go, has already been known.

As for you! Are you aware of this great calling upon your life? Have you come to the understanding of why God has chosen you? Or do you still go about in wonder, or is your walk in awe?

A call from God is of no small matter and if truth were told, you are not the owner of this calling. So, if your ministry is great, then so be He is who has formed it. And if your gift brings that of lasting fruit, then you know it was not of you who planted that first seed.

But there is one thing you can look forward to that no one can take from you. With each step you take in favor for the Kingdom of the living God, He will be in waiting to greet you for being His faithful servant.

Let it not be a question in your mine, know that God will not give you more than you can handle. But instead know as Christ knows you that God will never leave you nor forsake you. Remember, before you knew who you were and what would become of you, God had already known. So, the day to seek Him in your life is today. Let this not be a question in your mind or
