Father God... through having accepted myself to Be One Who was created in Your image ... but not living according to Your will... I reached out to You acknowledging my impure heart and repented for not obeying my conscience according to what I truly believe is Your better plan. With a heart filled with faith in the possibility of You and all which is good .... I asked that You empower me to overcome that which hinders me from Becoming Who You created Me to Be as Your daughter.... as the bride of Christ.... as a new creation through... and hid in Christ.... a mystery revealed. 
 
Initially when I humbled myself and turned to You for forgiveness  and empowerment to Be Who You created Me to Be.... basically You responded, "Your forgiven.... You are empowered through the Spirit of My Only Begotten Son... Jesus Christ... Who will  lead You into all truth and holiness... offering a intimate relationship with Me as Your loving father and Him as your betrothed.... as family."  It could have been as simple as that... yet a part of who I was ...  found this hard to believe and comprehend beyond a surface level.... the limitations of my mind kept attempting to get in the way.   Internal battles of doubt and confusion which sometimes plagued me after this ... grieved me deeply .... it was during such times of inner turmoil You reminded me I was given a pure heart upon asking and receiving Your heart in exchange for my own .... upon surrendering myself completely to Your eternal purposes...  enabling me to trust in Your will ... receiving forgiveness ...  love... eternal life as One reconciled with peace and joy to You through Your graciously manifested... unmerited love and mighty power.  
 
During such seasons... You gave me an awareness that You were developing the qualities of a pure heart within me through my daily struggles and Our Spiritual union and communion.... our communications together.  You caused me to comprehend there was no condemnation meant through any of this ... extending Your compassion and mercy in ever increasing ways... and deeper understandings.  You made me aware these fiery trials and tribulations were burning out of me... the nature within me which was impure... a nature which had previously infected me with preconditioned ways of being and perceiving...  thinking ... through false concepts... interpretations... perspectives... and limited understandings.  You assure me.... lies.... illusions... false judgments... expectations....  projections... fears...  presumptions....  condemnation... vain traditions of men... all which attempts to separate me from Your love... Your truth and overcoming power within are removed and replaced with all the mind.... words  and power Christ has to offer as I choose to die to them.  You enable me.... us to receive  Your ever increasing Spirit within... which continually develops my faith in Who You are... and have created me and others to Be .... as You reveal  through divinely orchestrated circumstances...   YourSelf... You truths.... Your divine mysteries.  Bless You! You gave me the understanding... this is a necessary process... all of this ultimately causes us.... me to be conformed to the image of  the One called the 'firstborn' from the dead.... Your only Begotten Son... Jesus the Christ.... Who's mind ever renews the Spirit of my... our own mind. 
 
The present understanding  Your Spirit has given me of the word Begotten is... One who never left You. 
 
Jesus said.... " I and my father are one"... This confounds our limited minds. Yet... as we choose to keep our minds focused on Your Spirit and that which You are imparting  within as Your truth through the resurrected life of Your Son... You discern for us how this is so.    Thank You...
 
Having heard ... Jesus released us..... me from the consequence of my sin ... separation from You and Your love... death.... feeling forsaken by You.... and offers us..... me in exchange ... an eternally loving relationship with You as Your Daughter of a pure heart ...  A Daughter of Destiny... One of many Who would be raised as Your Own... One... as a part of a whole... who is being prepared as a eternal companion for Your son... ... having been born anew ... through an awakening to Your Spirit within... and in our midst, as Your Kingdom comes on earth... as it already exists in heaven.... I chose to believe and receive Your truth as my own.   All of this and much more... brings forth a new life from within as my heart and mind is purified ...  through union with Your pure heart and mind. This new life within... this new creation I have become...  has been enabled to receive  the power to overcome sin... and death through You and Your revealed work at Calvary.  Through Your union with us...  the power to stand in faith... as the Holy Spirit intercedes on behalf of those in need of hearing ... receiving... and seeing Your magnificent... majestic will for man ... to include myself, is continually increased.  Bless You.... May You ever be glorified... and Your will be continually manifested... bringing much needed comfort and joy.... and an increase of Your mighty power to those on earth.... as it already exists where ever You are Present.
 
Thank You Father... for allowing me to stand through faith... in agreement with Your words...   when You woke me from my time of resting... during Evelyn's long labor process when the time came for Aaron David to be born ...  with the words, *'death shall not have this little one'... You brought Aaron back from death ... as I travailed in the Spirit with others ... watching  ... filled with faith believing Your revealed will when the time came to do so. Bless You for enabling me to be part of such  powerful experiences.... for enabling me to hear.... to believe.... to see death defeated on many levels .... through Your power and eternal divine plan for man.  Thank You that You have allowed others to visit me from the beyond the grave... in multiple ways... revealing to me experientially our Spirit does indeed continue to exist when we leave this body as we currently know it.  I do not seek them out... You send them.... and each visit brings blessings of comfort and joy.... and an ever increasing faith in the fulfillment of Your promises to man.  Praise Your holy name  that others are being given similar experiences and through them.... we can confirm...  encourage and comfort each other and those You bring into our lives...  with the comfort and revelations we have been given by You for such purposes as this, according to Your divine plan for each of us. 
 
Thank You that mortality has put on immortality in and through the life and mind of Jesus.... the Christ.  Thank You that Jesus is alive....  in Us ...  That Jesus... was... is.... and is coming again... and is Being revealed...  through the bride of Christ.... through Your family.... through the words and multiple... myriads of ways You have ordained.   Thank You for the blessing of eternal life with You... and Your family.  Bless You father.... bless You!
