About Me

I am a retired VA employee who lives in Texas. I consider the characters of the Bible "family" as much as any I know or have known on earth. To be one of the Lord's beloved is the greatest thing I know. What good company!

Bibledoorajaar Reports On God's Loving Kindness

"Once more she conceived and had a son; and she said, "Now this time my husband will be joined to me, because I have borne him three sons."
                                                                         Genesis 29: 34-35

 So Leah, sure that God was establishing her relationship with Jacob,  named the boy Levi which means joining. Three times God's loving kindness and goodness toward the unloved Leah had resulted in sons. It was His kindness toward Leah that made her productive, but His goodness also can be seen in His providing the sons for the patriarch who would provide the seedbed for the children of Israel and a coming Messiah. God loves to identify with the lost and the unloved. Just think how happy He made Leah with these sons. Did she love Him more than the man she was trying to get? I don't know, but clearly we know she knew of His care for her in her dilemma. Are you in a dilemma? Are you lost and at your wits end? Do you believe that God loves you enough to help you? I say with a resounding YES, he does. He sent His Son on a mission of loving kindness and goodness to people just like you and me.

"For the Son of Man is come to seek and to save that which is lost."
                                                                       Luke 19:10

He is excellent at displaying the loving kindness and goodness of the Father.  The Father said so Himself.

"And the Holy Spirit descended in a bodily shape like a dove upon Him, and a voice came from heaven which said, Thou art my beloved Son; in whom I am well pleased."
                                                                                 Luke 4:22

Trust Him today with your life, its' productivity and its' ability to be pleasing to God.
