My beloved brother,
You may be surprised to receive this letter from Me. I think it is high time I write you lest you sink in despair. There is a note of anxiety in your letters. Why?
First of all, my brother, I want to assure you I am not far away from you. It is your own imagination. Don’t believe the lies of your Evil Neighbour. He tries to put down your spirit. Whether in darkness or in daylight, sickness or health, reception or persecution I am by your side. Have I not told you that I will never leave you nor forsake you? Why do you doubt then? It is true I did not send a money-order as soon as you asked Me, nor heal you the moment you cried to Me, nor commanded instantaneous deliverance in problems. You are worried about your today only. I am concerned about your future also. So I have to carefully plan My every action for you. I have to train your arms for war, build you up in faith, train you to walk by faith and not by sight, train you to accept ‘no’s’ from Me, train you not to be afraid of darkness and storms. You are no more a baby. You have to grow out of your childishness. So now look ahead and march forward casting away all your fears and doubts. All these things work together for your own good.
Of course I understand your problems. I myself have suffered all these things. Why do you grumble about your wheat chappatis? You left rice and eat chappatis, but I left My heavenly manna and angel’s food and ate chappatis on earth! I did find it difficult to swallow. But did I ever once complain about it? For you it is only a change of temperature. But I never knew the slightest discomfort till I came down to earth. But, for the sake of saving you, I put up with everything.
Do not worry about your children now. You have obeyed My voice and sacrificed your children. Are they not My responsibility now? You just do to them what is within your means to the best of your ability and leave the rest to Me. Your children are My children.
It is true you are finding it difficult to make both ends meet. I have all the riches you want. But I do not want you to be very rich. My enemy deceitfully gave riches to some and led them astray. They have forgotten the mission for which I deputed them. They are praising Me for their blessings which have become a curse for them. Brother, remember I became poor, so I was within the reach of common people. You must know the sufferings of common man and maintain their status so that your heart can reach out to them. That’s why I am withholding from you certain things. Soon, all that I have will be yours. I have told you to be content if you have food and clothing. So don’t desire more. Why do you always keep worrying about your health? I am your Healer and I am directing the hands of the doctor who treats you. You are in My hands. Can you add one day to your life by worrying? So quit worrying. The present sufferings are nothing compared to the future glory.
Don’t worry about the man who is giving you all this trouble. He is an agent of Satan. I will deal with him in due time. Let not fear overtake you. I am watching his every move. I have kept many angels around you to guard you. I am aware of everything that’s happening to you. I am silent because I want you to trust Me blindly and not be fretting at every situation.
Also don’t be discouraged at the barrenness you see in the field. Fast often, pray more and labour more. Keep on sowing the seeds. I am about to send a heavy shower when all the seeds will spring up. If you are discouraged now and stop sowing there will be no harvest for you. For some of my coworkers I never commanded a harvest. They just sowed the seeds and slept in peace. They will awake in eternity to receive their rewards though the world may give no credit to their “fruitless” labours. Carry on. The day of harvest is not far. I will fulfill the desires of your heart.
I am sorry in your despair you criticise your leader. I only appointed him over you. His heart is in My hand. I turn it as I please. He cannot do anything of his own. I promote and I demote; I transfer and I settle. He simply carries out My orders. Certain things may be very disturbing to you. But I want you to stand the trial. The devil is pointing to it and whispering in your ears to quit. But beware! The devil can see your future. I have a glorious future for you when you cross this hurdle. That’s why the devil feels threatened and is trying to mislead you. I am holding your right hand. I recongnise your labours for Me. I appreciate your faithfulness. I give you credit for your honesty, labour and truthfulness. What more do you want? Only on this earth somebody can steal away the credit that belongs to you. But My record is perfect. No one can cheat Me.
There is another thing I want to write to you. I am not satisfied with your standard of holiness. I keep constantly speaking to you through My Spirit and your conscience. The devil keeps telling you are too negative and sensitive. No, it is not so. It is My voice. Don’t try to muffle it. Heed My plea and run away from evil. Would you betray me for a moment of passion? Would you choose another master for a few more rupees? Would you speak lies to please your earthly leader and displease your heavenly Master? Would you keep what does not belong to you, in the name of ministry? Beware, My brother! You must not be ignorant of the devices of the devil. He knows your weak point and I know that too. He kicks at it but I support it. Lean on My side. It is safe for you.
And why do you harbour bitterness against your coworker? Many times I am unable to bless your work because you don’t even pray together. You keep asking Me to bless you after tying My hands tight! Don’t ask me to bless your work before first getting reconciled to your brother. Were not Peter, James and John My colabourers? When I spoke of My plans, Peter said “No.” I scolded him but harboured no bitterness against him; because I knew it was not he but the devil that instigated him. When I spoke of My suffering James and John were demanding glory. I worked with Judas. I knew he was a thief but I was not jittery. I treated him as My friend. You are not having worse companions than these. You have your weaknesses and they have theirs. So be at peace with them. Forgive them as I have forgiven you.
Never give in to the temptation that you can fare better in another field or another ministry or independently. I don’t want you to do great things. I want you to just do My will. Many were cheated by the devil to forsake the specific humble tasks I assigned to them to a “glamourous” ministry. Trust Me and work together joyfully with the team I have put you in. Let not the devil make you believe you are unique. Everyone is equally precious to Me and you must go, grow and glow together.
It is real fun for me to watch you from up here. You are behaving as if you don’t have a God and a Father. Stop acting that way. What will the heathen around you think of Me?
Let me close this letter with the reassurance that I shall be with you even to the end of the age.
With My loving kisses, Your Brother,
J. Christ
