Getting to know the God of all grace
Greetings from Moldova to all you precious saints!Psalm 81:10b says, "...Open your mouth wide and Iwill fill it". What is my need today? What is yourneed? Thank God, we have an all-mighty God who desires to be very personal with us in filling our need. He says to us,Won't you simply open your mouth wide and let me supply your need from My eternal storehouse? A storehouse filled with His grace, His mercy, His goodness, His kindness. There is no lack in that storehouse. Whatever the need, whether big or small, God is waiting to be gracious to us and show His love toward us by filling the need. During the last two weeks, I have been amazed at the way that God has supplied my need. We were four days inBudapest, one day in Slovakia, three days in Brasov,Romania, now I've been here for four days and whenpresented an opportunity to preach or do a rap, I have opened my mouth wide and God has filled it! I didn't realize until now how much I had received by being in GGWO Baltimore every day and just receiving from the pulpit and from the Body. Thank you so much, PastorSchaller, and all the dear pastors who have been faithful to preach the Word and invest in my life!!! The value of what I have received in my 3 1/2 years there cannot be estimated. It is truly beyond words. Thank you to the Body in Baltimore, too, for just loving me! I've been so warmly received by Pastor Julian and the Body here in Moldova. Oh, what a time we're having! Thank you, Lord. :) We've had amazing times in the Word, on the streets evangelizing and just feasting in fellowship.There does seem to be an amazing openness to the Gospel amongst the Moldovans. Bible college begins again tonight, with Gabor Bolbas teaching Methods of Evangelism. I’ll teach Old Testament Survey on Friday and Pastor Julian will teach a class either on Wednesday or Sunday. Thank you for reading thus far and as the Lord brings it to remembrance, please pray for us in the following:

Just let God love you
Joh 3:16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only-begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
1Jn 4:10 In this is love, not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation concerning our sins.
So many people don't experience the real love the unconditional love of God !
Why? Because they don't let God love them! There is much pain and much sorrow in this world and people are blaming all on God . Why God ? Why is this happening to me ? How can I believe in God with all this things happening in the world? If God exist and loves us this world will not be like this!
How many times in our conversations with people ,we have met this questions or statements!
People are angry and mad on God ! Why? Because they don't know how much God loves them ! How much He is looking to minister to them Mercy and Grace! They don't know how much God paid in order to bring peace ,joy and love in our life, and all this for free!
God knows what is happennig in this world in our life and He wants to help us ! He is saying:" Just let me love you! Come to Me as you are and let Me love you !"
God is so awsome ! I don't know where I will be without the love of God ! I know that I am here at this point in my life just because of His love ! I can continue because of His love and I will finish my race victorious because of His love. I like that He is not puting conditions for me . He says :" Come ! Just come ! Like a child!"
I love this! Thank you Lord!
Amen
