Just thinking of that verse, I can’t help but think how much it must have cost our Father to give His only Son, just to save us. Loving our children is as wonderful as it is all consuming. I can remember well when they were little and sick, my heart would just hurt for them! And as they got older and faced some of life’s challenges, my heart hurt even more for them! I can’t even begin to think what it must have cost our Father and Jesus’ mother Mary, to watch their Son suffer so just to save us.

Thank you Jesus, for saving me. And thank you Father and Mary for your willingness to hurt so much as you watched your Son suffer for our sins, so that we might be saved.

How Blessed are we to be so loved. And although there will never be enough words to thank you, thank you all the same

But “harden not your heart”  🙂

There is so much happening in our world that gives us reason to worry. After all, it is our children who
will inherit this earth.

But God is still in charge and Jesus is still coming back. So please my friends, do not fear, for Heaven waits for us all!

In God We Trust 🙂

“Your world is not falling apart, it is falling in place. God is holding you. “

 

A recent song by Lauren Daigle (You Say) is so true.  Sometimes we jump out of bed in the morning and we feel God’s presence.  We don’t think He is with us, we know!  And it feels awesome.   But sometimes, sometimes we don’t ‘”feel” anything, but God is still there.  Walking with you.  So keep praying; keep talking to Jesus and I promised that “feeling” will return.

Have you ever had that feeling that you just don’t want to get out of bed in the morning?   Perhaps you are sick like me?  Maybe there is just too much going on?  Maybe you are going to have to face something today that you just don’t want to face?

Whatever it is, we’ve all been there.  Comfy and safe under our comforter, not wanting to jump up and start the day.  That’s when God’s Message of “Do Not Fear” really matters.  With God for us, who can be against us-and prevail?  Whatever happens during the course of our day, God already knows all about it and is planning to use it to our good, and perhaps even the good of someone else.  Life is not always easy, but with God at our side, it’s always possible ?

We all feel it. Too much.

Charles Spurgeon once said, “the Holier a man becomes, the more he mourns his unholiness “.   Personally, I have found that to be true.  The closer I grow to God, the sadder I am when I displease Him in any way.  It’s a good thing to ask our Lord for His forgiveness when we sin.  We need it.  But if we fail to forgive ourselves as well, it can be much harder to serve our Lord!

So today, let’s make that a priority, our prayer for the day.  Jesus forgave us.  Our Father forgave us.  Let’s ask the Holy Spirit to help us forgive ourselves so that we might better serve our Lord.

Not about what we Get…
