FROM THE ASHES BEAUTY CAN COME

This page is dedicated to knowing we are, not the person we were treated as, but a child of our Father. Words to comfort us. When I found out who I was as HIS child, then what man said didn't matter. From the stories posted, maybe we can find comfort from the Word about that situation.

I am just getting things up, please check back soon. There will be other articles of hope, and love for us to draw strength from.

If in all the hurts, we can hold on to, who we are in the Father, and that He will take care of the ones that hurt us, then we can get through it. Many times we are mistreated by someone, and it hurts so bad, and even more if from one in the faith. As the old saying goes, "You are hurt the most by the one you love."

When we first came into the faith many of us had that first love for our Father. May we never loose our love for Him. What man did to us was not Him. Not every man that says he is a minister for Him was ever called by him. I think we got into that type of situation, believe the man was called, when he was not. We can either let what happened to us destroy us, or use it to grow. We can also use any comfort we got in it, to comfort others.

You and I, as His child, have been washed, sanctified, and justified according to 1 Cor.6:11. Do you really realize what this means? No Church, minister, or any being has the right to tell you that you are not going to be in the kingdom. No right to tell you that you can not serve where you know you have a calling! If they do, then you are in the wrong place, and something is not lining up with the written Word where you attend.

Our Father called the ones rich in faith, not the highly educated ones. The mind you have in you, if you are His child is the mind of His very own Son! He has revealed things to you by His Spirit, and as His child He has shown you things that the ones without His Spirit can not see according to 1 Cor. 2:19, 10, 16. This is you and me! We did not have to have them spoon feeding us, telling us what we could or could not do as the Fathers child.

He gave us His Spirit, and according to Romans 8:26-39 and 1 John. 2:27. You, and I had something they didn't want us to know we had.

Oh dear people, we are so special to our Father. We were called to a work of righteousness, and just because a Church, or minister in the past mistreated us, it does not mean we can not still be, and do what we were called to do! We can have joy unspeakable. Peace like that can not be described. It is with our Father, and His Son we have these things. They are merciful, and so loving. They give us their Spirit to help us be able to live pleasing to them. They give us the power of the Holy Spirit to do a work for them. 1 Cor.12. We see here that each and every one of His children are given a power of His Spirit to do something for Him.

We have been set in their family by them, not any man on earth. No man can every take us out of that family! They can threaten you, try all the scare tactics they want, but our Father holds us in His hand an no man can take us out of it!. We can by choice get out of it.
