So
Many Things
By Kathy Mote
So many things to distract your heart from Him. So many thoughts to take you away from Him. So many moments
lost that could have been sweetened by Him. Religion of any kind is walking by the letter of the law, but that is not fellowship or knowing His heart.
Judging is living by your knowledge of what is written
instead of living by His presence filling your own heart and drawing you to Him. As you give Him your heart, He reveals His love and His thoughts. He is mighty to be heard and His voice heals our heart. Living by your own judgment is missing the point.
His way is more excellent.

Being Made Right
By Kathy Mote
Being made right with God's heart is serious business, and He is making all things right with Him. Whoever thinks it's about this
brief life on Earth is mistaken. It's about eternal Life being given to abide with Him. It's being brought into His arms and called His children. It's about being right with Him, knowing His heart and your place in it. Something no man can fathom.
It's about being given a gift far too precious to be frivolously walked in. It's about being made able to receive and be received by Him, even while He is beyond our imagining. It's by His mercy and grace that we are
brought to abide with Him. Even as we lay our own life down to embrace it, we have no idea what a gift He has given.

The Lord Said
By Kathy Mote
The Lord said, “You and I have a kindred heart. You are My delight.”
To be kindred is to be related
as family, but also to be the same, to have the same intent, to be filled with the same content. We are filled with the Father's heart by Him. He is calling us His delight because we are filled with the Father's desire.

It’s Hard Not To Get
Caught UP
By Kathy Mote
It's hard not to get caught up in what's right and wrong. When we see an injustice, we forget the first law
of God's heart, to love as we are loved. The only way to know how deep His love for us is, is to give Him our heart so completely that He dwells fully in it. That's how we are protected.
Here is something
I learned the easy way as I obeyed His voice when He called me to Him. When someone provoked me unjustly, I got upset, but He told me to stand down. His living justice is not what our hearts demand. His living justice is mercy and love, and it frees us in
an instant, bringing us to rest in Him. That's how He handles injustice. We remain unchanged by it by living in His presence and being healed.
When someone behaves unjustly, provoking your heart to cry
out, just remember they are a tool in His hand to humble your heart and bring you closer to Him. Technically, that means He is using them to bring you to Him, teaching you to make the choice to stay with Him. In the process, your heart is being made as His
is.
Yeah, you are that important to Him.
He has been moving Heaven and Earth to bring you to Him.

As
You Humble Your Heart
By Kathy Mote
As you humble your heart before the Lord, that is when you truly begin to know His heart. His desire
is to redeem the world, not condemn it. All of our judgments are carnal, just like our heart and our understanding is until we know His. And yes, hell was made to imprison the devil, not to throw those He has not changed in.

Here Is The Secret
By Kathy Mote
Here is the secret to staying out of a fight. When someone judges you, do not judge them back. Let the Lord humble your heart. You
belong to Him. He is Lord. He will reign you in just as He will reign them in, and as He does you will be closer to His heart than you have ever been. Justice is being that close to Him.
