Hebrews 4:12-16. Mark 2:18-22

I am the joy within the soul of all faithfully committed in My love. All who are in Me and I in them are cleansed, refreshed and guided by Our Holy Spirit.

But they are also called to service of the Father in His world and sensitivity to the needs of others and to the suffering of the one and many. This calls for total dedication to the Father's will and loving purpose and readiness to be the suffering servant too.

And I look for My beloved followers to identify with Me in Gethsemane and in My way to Golgotha. Joy and suffering are both part of the life of all the truly committed in Our saving, sanctifying love. But "suffering abides for a season: joy comes in the morning.
