Greetings in the Refreshining name of Jesus Christ!
It's snowing here in Southern Maine, again! About this time of year we are ready to see the end of snow, but snow makes a point! Snow covers all imperfections otherwise noticable. Instead of looking at unkept roads, or brown grass, or the odd bit of trash strewn about, we see fresh, clean, neat snow. Jesus made us a promise, one that refers to snow! He told us if we accept His gift of salvation we shall be made white as snow! Our sins would no longer be seen by God! I don't know about you, but this is definitely something I want for me! I want it for you too!
Pray with me;
"Lord, I am a sinner. Your word says if I accept you as my savior, I shall be made white as snow! Forgive me Lord for my sins. Thank you for taking my place on the cross! I ask you to dwell within my heart Lord. Amen." If you prayed this, welcome to the family of Christ! Know that you are forgiven, and your sins are covered! Jesus is faithful in His promise!
Isaiah 1:18 says, "Come now, let us reason together," says the LORD. "Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they are red as crimson, they shall be like wool."
Now is the Time for Worship!
May God Richly Bless You, My Beloved!

Greetings in the Completely Loving Name of Jesus Christ!
Do you love? How do you know? There is a story of a man, a murderer, on death row. His mother visited him on the day before he was to be executed. After her visit, she spoke with the warden about her son.
The next morning the guards and the warden came to lead the condemned man to the death chamber. As they walked, the warden explained that the man's mother had asked to be put to death in her son's place. The warden agreed. The condemned man was led to the front gate and set free as he wept at his mother's loving sacrifice. This is just a story, not really true as there is no provision to take the place of anyone on death row, but there is one TRUE story where this did happen! God sent His son, Jesus Christ, to die on the cross, in our place, for our condemned souls! This is a TRUE story; and you can read about it in the book of John!
John 3:16 says, "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life."
Try reading it this way, "For God so loved (your name) that He gave His only begotten son, that if (your name) believeth in Him (your name) should not parish, but have everlasting life."

Greetings in the Restful Name of Jesus Christ!
7 days ago Tina and I left to visit her family in Malaysia on Borneo. We are here now! It is an arduous journey, taking nearly 2 full days to get here! But once we are here the worries of the world start to fall away, rather quickly. It wasn't long before I reached 'rest central'! Rest is important to humans so we can recharge ourselves and be more productive servants. Have you ever tried to be effective after 24 hours awake? It's hard! God knows how important rest is; He himself rested after creating everything. Work when you should, rest when you should; it is a cycle of which God approves!
Genesis 2:2-3 says, "And on the seventh day God ended his work which he had made; and he rested on the seventh day from all his work which he had made.
(3)And God blessed the seventh day, and sanctified it: because that in it he had rested from all his work which God created and made.

Greetings in the Comforting Name of Jesus Christ!
Challenges, we all have them, some of us more often than others. There are probably times you are tempted to just give up and give in, but instead, let's be thankful for those challenges! What?! Yup, that's what I said; thankful! Let me tell you why. God knows exactly what we are able to handle in our lives. The challenges we face in our lives, if we are true believers, are a way to know that God has faith in us! Believe it? Well, consider Job! That's what God said to satan when satan said Job would fold under pressure, "Consider my servant Job". God showed great faith in Job because Job showed great faith in God! As you know, satan laid it on Job hard, and Job never faltered! Job knew God was there with him, no matter what the challenge!
1 Corinthians 10:13 says, "No temptation has seized you except what is common to man. And God is faithful; he will not let you be tempted beyond what you can bear. But when you are tempted, he will also provide a way out so that you can stand up under it."
