COMFORTED

Matthew 5:4 (NKJV) 4  Blessed are those who mourn, For they shall be comforted. 
    An uncle died recently, he was the type of person, when he spoke people listened, to him life was about joyful living and giving of yourself to others. His passing was quick and unexpected, yet a peace settled over the family for the mercy of God.
   There is the need to experience God and not just know about Him, for enjoying God is the absence of self, that we might experience the infilling of His Presence. Simply, the Lord desires we put everything in our life at His disposal, to use as He wills.
   The verse above could read, "Blessed are those who grieve over sin, for they will be comforted." If we will allow ourselves to know God, we must grieve over our sins, we will desire to put anything that gets in the way of His Mercy away. God wants to fellowship with us, however, sin must be put away.
Heavenly Father to live with You we must live by You, help us to learn of You that we may be light to those around us. Amen
