ENTHEOS: Forgiving Without Limits

Forgiving Without Limits

Oh, how thankful I am for this past week! It was so good to be back in school, I loved the counseling classes and I learned so much! (Actually we'll find out after the test how much I remember... :-)) One of our topics was forgiveness. Hurts are real, but when we fail to forgive we forget the huge debt God forgave us. God wiped our records clean. Don't count offenses, forgive without limits. (Freedom from Resentment, by Robert D. Jones)

Right now I'm in Michigan visiting our former Dean of Students and his wife - Marion and Candy Hall. Yana, our former Assistant and Lea, one of our graduates are here as well. What a lovely reunion! So happy!

About the title

The Greek word entheos, means "having God within", formed from en, "in, within," and theos, "God". The Almighty God lives in us through His Holy Spirit (John 14:17). Entheos is the root of the English word "enthusiasm". I believe from my whole heart that God is boundlessly enthusiastic. My favourite author, A.W. Tozer says, that "God takes pleasure in Himself and rejoices in His own perfection”. He is also delighted with His whole creation, and yes, He is especially delighted with people made in His image.

I want God to be my Passion. I want to be a joyful Christian who finds her total satisfaction in Him alone. Nothing and no one else is necessary to my happiness. He is the One I live for. Getting to know Him day by day gives me thousands of reasons to be enthusiastic about. And my greatest desire is to please Him as I’m rejoicing in the One who lives in me. Do they see Jesus in me???

About the blog

This blog is an attempt to keep you informed about “my adventures” in the USA. The reason I’m going to America is the same as in the previous years - to bring glory to God! He is the One Who made all this possible and I want to bring Him to every person I’ll meet. I’ll consider this trip successful if they will all see Jesus in me! I know, you don’t need to go all the way to the other end of the world to be a witness for the Lord. :) My secondary reasons for this trip are to do a Biblical Counseling course at Faith Bible Seminary (Lafayette, IN) and to raise support for our ministry at Word of Life Hungary (www.eletszava.org). I can't wait to see how the Lord will bless me once again. You can join me in watching as God miraculously puts together all the details of this tour. May it all be done for His glory!
