For the Lost Sheep (II) Book Review

These books are a joy to read. They always speak directly to my heart and explain God`s message and instructions to me as His born again child, born again of water and the Spirit.
The Table of Contents contains lessons. An example is, `Spend your money on a worthwhile cause`, `Let your faith be united with Friendly Jesus`, and `Rely on the Lord.`
Wow. How precious are these words of wisdom from God`s Church. We must pray to Jesus and ask Him for His help always. We must spend all our money to support the spreading of the gospel, and we must wholly rely on our Lord. Our own strength cannot be relied upon. But when we rely on our Lord, we can do anything through Christ, who strengthens us.
I am grateful to have these books. They are a guide through this very life. Every question I have is answered in them, and all I need to do is open any book and just read.
Jesus tells His disciples to abide in the vine, as He abides in the vine. If we want to bear fruit and be blessed, we must remain in the Church and follow and serve the Lord with a united heart, being led by our predecessors in the faith. We cannot serve the Lord alone. If we do not abide in the Church, we are not connected to our life source, which is Christ. And therefore, we will ultimately perish. Our life comes from God, and God Himself directs His Chuch. We can only serve the Lord when we unite with His Church. To do this, one must have absolute faith in the Word. Our strengths and abilities may be very lacking, but if we have the heart to believe in every Word of God and follow Him, we will bear fruit abundantly and be blessed. We live off God`s blessings, and we have to ask God constantly to bless us. God likes it when we ask Him for things. He doesn`t like it when we think we can do things ourselves without His help. This is insulting. We need God for our everything and therefore, we should constantly be praying to Him.
This book, and every book of the New Life Mission, is a heartfelt message from God`s heart to ours. Read them and be thankful to God for His abundant grace in your life, and may you be nourished in body and soul and serve God until you leave this world. Amen.
