An Intimate One-on-one Relationship Nordia A. Dixon

Many of us may believe connecting to the earth and universe can bring a form of "peace," hard work: "success," and treating ourselves and others well can bring us "happiness." But how do we receive "joy"? Happiness depends on what's happening outside of us, such as materialistic achievements and how people treat us. Joy is what we have despite what's happening around us -- a special gift received from being in an intimate relationship with our Triune Creator... The best of us miss the mark and, at least, emulate sin in thoughts. How we treat others, including ourselves, knowingly and unknowingly, is also a factor. How then do we enter into the presence of the Holy One -- our Creator? The significant question every human being from all religions and thoughts should now ask is: "How do I get freedom from the consequences of missing the mark (sin)? How does our Creator solves this challenge for us?" Matthew 16:13-17 NKJV When Jesus came into the region of Caesarea Philippi, He asked His disciples, saying, "Who do men say that I, the Son of Man, am?" So they said, "Some say John the Baptist, some Elijah, and others Jeremiah or one of the prophets." He said to them, "But who do you say that I am?" Simon Peter answered and said, "You are the Christ, the Son of the living God." Jesus answered and said to him, "Blessed are you, Simon Bar-Jonah, for flesh and blood has not revealed this to you, but My Father who is in heaven." The same two questions remain for us also: Who does everyone else say Yeshua Christ is? Who do you say He is? Your answer to the latter is the most important answer of your lifetime.
