The Basics :)

So often, we forget to really think about some of the basics. And one of the basics is that Jesus truly Saved our life. And it’s not just the lives we look forward to in Heaven, it’s our lives here on earth.

And because Jesus Saved us, we live with great purpose. We get to live a life that pleases God. A life we can be happy with, instead of ashamed of. A life we can offer to God and know that God is pleased 🙂

Jesus Loves Us, Always!

No matter what we face, no matter how difficult the times, Jesus always walks with us. When our faith seems weak, when our fears seem to overwhelm us, when the world seems in chaos…No matter what happens, no matter how alone we feel, no matter how hopeless our situation seems, Jesus stays with us.

And Jesus loves us in a way we can not comprehend. More than we can comprehend. And Jesus loves us with a love that we can truly count on!

Because Jesus loves us always and never, ever leaves us 🙂

Create In Me A Clean Heart

“Create in me a clean heart, O God; and renew a right spirit within me. Cast me not away from thy presence; and take not thy holy spirit from me. Restore unto me the joy of thy salvation; and uphold me with thy free spirit.”-Psalm 51:10-12

As we begin this New Year, we need to begin it with a “Clean Heart” 🙂

The Best Resolution For 2026!

We can make this our year of Breakthrough with Jesus. As we all make our resolutions for this upcoming year, perhaps this is the resolution we should make: That this year will be our year of Breakthrough!

The year that we actually live as we believe. The year that we pray more! The year that we ask the Holy Spirit to help us not only believe more, but live the life that Jesus taught us to live! Loving God and all God’s people-all of them!

What Should We Do For The New Year?

We are not here to help Save the Saved, we are here to help Save the Lost. How can we do that if we are not even friends with them? The first step to Saving the Lost is loving them, really loving them. Genuinely caring about their happiness and welfare. Their health, their hunger, their future…

For if we do not genuinely love them, and like them too, why should they listen to us about anything, much less Jesus.

This year, Pray for and Love the Lost…

Please Heal Us :)

There are many types of illnesses. There are physical ones; there are emotional ones. And there are Spiritual illnesses!

And of all of them, the Spiritual ones are the most important. Physical ones may be more obvious ones. Emotional ones may make us sad. But it is the Spiritual ones that may have the most lasting of impacts, and the most important ones!

Because Spiritual ones can last forever if they are not Healed.

But thankfully, all we need to do to have a Spiritual illness Healed is to ask Jesus to Heal it! And He will!

So before we enter the New Year, let us ask Jesus together to Heal any Spiritual illness we have!

So let’s ask Jesus together to Heal us and to be our Savior and Follow Him Home 🙂

Before We Enter The New Year, Remember :)

None of knows what awaits us in the New Year. But we do know one thing, the most important thing:

“It is the Lord who goes before you. He will be with you; he will not leave you or forsake you. Do not fear or be dismayed.”-Deuteronomy 31:8

We need to know and meditate on that. Because no matter what happens next year, God’s Got Us 🙂

Preparing For The New Year :)

As we prepare for the new year, we need to look back on the last year. And a good examination of our conscience doesn’t just include the sins we committed, but the actions we didn’t take.

In fact, the actions we didn’t take are sometimes more important. Did we love someone who was unlovable? Did we help someone who was homeless or hungry? Did we listen to someone who really needed to share their feelings. Or perhaps they were just lonely and needed some company…Did we smile at someone in the grocery store and say Hi or offer a hug to someone who needed it?

Examining our conscience gives us the opportunity to pray and to think about what kind of person we want to be…And then we get to become that person 🙂

A person who truly loves God and All God’s people as well!

Have A Holy & Happy Christmas!

“A New Heaven and a New Earth. I saw a new heaven and a new earth, because the first heaven and earth had disappeared, and the sea was gone.  Then I saw the holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down from God out of heaven, dressed like a bride ready for her husband.  I heard a loud voice from the throne say, “God lives with humans! God will make his home with them, and they will be his people. God himself will be with them and be their God. 4 He will wipe every tear from their eyes. There won’t be any more death. There won’t be any grief, crying, or pain, because the first things have disappeared.” 5 The one sitting on the throne said, “I am making everything new.”” -Revelation 21:1-5

Tonight we celebrate the birth of Jesus. He gave us such amazing Gifts when He was born. Jesus built us a Bridge to the Father and gave us a way Home. A way to Heaven, the Garden of Eden. Tonight, the Light is born 🙂 A Light that will lead us Home.

And we know that we will once again live in the Garden of Eden A Garden of such astonishing beauty; we will be overwhelmed with how much God loves us. Swaying trees in a gentle breeze, flowers so beautiful that we can only stand amazed while their fragrance takes our breath away! And as the sunlight dances on the water, our eyes are truly able to see God’s Light for the first time :). So beautiful and peaceful that we just want to lay among the flowers and gaze at the water.

There will be mountains to climb and adventures to enjoy. We will see colors that astonish us. Beautiful colors that we have never seen before. And there will be work. Only it will be work that brings us joy! For there will be no fatigue or stress or the pull of needing to do more than one thing. There will be people that we love and that love us! And hugs, hugs that are deeper and last longer. Hugs that will be more…

In the Bible it says, “the leopard shall lie down with the young goat,
and the calf and the lion and the fattened calf together; and a little child shall lead them.” – Isaiah 11:6. And as the animals join us, we will be filled with joy, and we will laugh, for in Heaven there is no fear!

And we WILL eat :). The trees will be bursting with all kinds of fruit. We will have a seat at God’s Table:

” the Lord of hosts will make for all peoples a feast of rich food, a feast of well-aged wine, of rich food full of marrow, of aged wine well refined.” – Isaiah 25:6

Greatest of all, we will walk with God and we will never be separated from Jesus again!

Thank You Jesus 🙂
