Finding renewal and hope

Glorious Misery

In the Spirit, I saw a sheet descending from Heaven. When it reached me, it wrapped itself around me and pulled me up to His throne and set me in His arms. There, I was immersed in a pool of the purest love. It was poured on me like fresh water from a well. Jesus began to share His heart with me. The only words I can use to describe it are; sweet pain and glorious misery. I saw the faces of people who have turned away from God. I felt God’s grief over His lost friends. I felt Him yearning for them to come back. I felt such love, compassion, and mercy for them. My heart ached. It was astounding to feel such peace and grief at the same time. I was so deep into Him, I never wanted to leave. I wanted to stay and let Him love me like that forever, but I knew I had to come back because I want to help Jesus get His friends back. I don’t want to go to Heaven alone. I have to go take someone with me. I want the ones that nobody wants. I want the useless, the unloved, the lost, the broken, the dying, the rejected and abandoned. I want them. If that is you, please let me hear from you. I want you to go to Heaven with me.

Dear Jesus,

Lead me to the ones nobody wants. Let me be an overflow of Your compassion for the rejected souls. Help me not to shrink back as I go the hottest flames to get Your people. Make my life a beacon of hope so that anyone can find You if they so desire. Use my hands and my feet. Though my hands are rough, give them a gentle touch. Though my feet are tired, energize them with the gospel of peace.

Amen
