Good Morning,  As we move closer toward life's end, we grow weary, the body grows weak and the toll taken of by struggles of this life can no longer be ignored. But we also become more excited and enthusiastic by the thought of getting closer to the goal for which we have lived which fills us with a zest that simply cannot be experienced any earlier in life. With each passing day the words of Paul in 2 Corinthians 4.16 become more and more real to us "Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day."  Just saying.

Good Morning,  The Lord does not see as man sees, for man looks at the outward appearance, but the Lord looks at the heart. 1 Samuel 16.7. This being true, God desires the heart that is pure, humble, loving and obedient. A heart that listens, hears and does God's will pleases the God of our salvation. Man's circumstances and troubles of this world may test our faith and our patience, but it is the righteous God who tests the heart and mind and saves the upright in heart. Jesus the Christ said, "Blessed are the pure in heart for they shall see God." Matthew 5.8. Where lies your heart this morning? Will it pass the test of God? Is your heart right with God?

Good Morning,  Christ lived to give us an example of how we should live, and sacrificed His life, being crucified on the cross for the sins of the world. He was resurrected from death back to life proving He is a conqueror and ascended back to heaven where He now sits at the right hand of the throne of God as our King, interceding for us as our high Priest. All praise, glory and honor to His name!

Good Morning,  JESUS, the Christ, King of all kings, Lord of all lords is the one I have decided to follow, because He lives still today, seated at the right hand throne of God. He is my bread when I'm hungry, my shelter from troubled winds, my anchor in life's ocean, who has the words of eternal life. JESUS, my best friend, merciful, forgiving and full of grace towards us. JESUS my only reason for living. He is the way the truth and the life, the only way to the Father is through Him. JESUS, the only name under heaven by which we must be saved. JESUS, just and fair in His judgements, the one all will stand in front of on that great and glorious day to give an account of the things done on earth, in this body whether good or bad. We have no greater friend than JESUS, for there is no friend like the lowly JESUS, no not one.  These are just some of the reasons I try to take up my cross daily and follow JESUS. Decide this day whom you will follow.  Thanks for reading..

Good Morning,  When the storms of life are raging deep inside, children of God, disciples of Christ, turn their eyes upon Jesus and turn the pages of His word where they find help from above with promise. For behold, God is our helper who has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of sound mind. To His servants the Lord has said; "fear not for I am with you. Be not dismayed for I am your God, I will strengthen you, yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand. I will never leave you nor forsake you." We trust in the Lord and obey His commandments and can say boldly, The Lord is my helper, I will not fear.  Man cannot be trusted, help cannot be found in treasures or other worldly things. Help is found in no other than the Lord.  Psalms 54.4; 2 Timothy 1.7; Isaiah 4.10;Hebrews 13.5-6.
