• Just Jesus

3
Many people mistake our work for our vocation.

• Our vocation is the love of Jesus.
• Mother Teresa

4
The overriding goal of our life should be to fall
deeply in love with Jesus.
5
For my determined purpose is that I may know
Him-that I may progressively become more deeply
and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving
and recognizing and understanding the wonders of
His Person more strongly and more clearly,
6
and that I may in that same way come to know the
power flowing from His resurrection which it
exerts over believers, and that I may so share
His sufferings as to be continually transformed
in spirit into His likeness even to His
death.. Phil. 310

A SmorgasbordOf Thoughts
8
Deep Intimacy with Jesus will

• Accomplish everything God wants to do in you and
  through you

9
Ask God to help you see how much He loves you

• Even when times
• are very difficult

10
Dont walk away from sin

• Walk towards Jesus

11
Dont think suffering is a sign of Gods
displeasure

• Job made that mistake

12
"I pray that you will be able to grasp fully with
all the holy ones, the breadth and length and
height and depth of Christ's love, and experience
that love which surpasses all knowledge, so that
you may attain to the fullness of God Himself."

• Pauls prayer for the Ephesians
• in Eph 318-19

13
"There is not in the world a kind of life more
sweet and delightful than that of a continual
conversation with God. Those only can comprehend
it who practice and experience it."

• Brother Lawrence
• Practicing The Presence of God

14
Christianity is not meant to be only head
knowledge. If you had total, complete knowledge
of all the teachings of the Church and that's all
you had, with no personal experience of Jesus'
love, you would be missing the whole ball game!
15
Jesus said to him, Have I been with you so
long, and yet you have not known Me, Philip?
John 149

• These words were not spoken as a rebuke, nor even
  with surprise Jesus was encouraging Philip to
  draw closer.

God is not worried about tomorrow He has already
worked that out.
18
He is inviting you to live with Him in the joy of
the moment, responding to what He puts right
before you.
19
The freedom to follow Him that way will transform
so many areas of your life.
20
God simply loves you and He wants you to live in
the security of that without trying to figure
everything out.

22
When we experience personally the passionate love
of Jesus for us, the Christian journey is no
longer a struggle to overcome obstacles.
23
It becomes an invitation to enter into a love
affair with the One who burns with the deepest
desire and affectionate longing for us.
24
When we enter this intimacy with Jesus, the
overriding goal of our life is to fall deeply in
love with Jesus.
25
We become truly free. We then understand what
it's like to rise up on eagles wings and soar in
the heavens with Jesus
26
