This rainbow was behind the SOS Events property last evening. What a great visual reminder of God’s promises and love to us.
Ezekiel 1:28 As Ezekiel 1:28 As the appearance of the bow that is in the cloud in the day of rain, so was the appearance of the brightness round about. This was the appearance of the likeness of the glory of the Lord……
This time of year seems to have a lot of celebrations that focus on love. Weddings, engagements and anniversaries. It is wonderful to see couples who love one another. Maybe you are one of the people who do not have that special someone in your life who loves you. You have been hurt, your spouse has died or deserted you. The good news is you DO have someone who loves you and will never leave you. That person is Jesus. He loves you so much He died for you and He will never leave you or forsake you. If you have not accepted Him as your Savior, do it today.
1 John 4:9 In this was manifested the love of God toward us, because that God sent his only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through him.
In February we see advertisements on TV, in stores and everywhere featuring hearts and flowers and talk about love and Valentines. It is a great time for the card companies, florists and candy companies. Restaurants will have overflow crowds on February 14th. Many people confuse romance with true love. True love is caring for someone so much that you would be willing to give your life for that person. That is the love that Jesus had for us when He died on the cross to save us.
John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.
God gave us the greatest gift that will last for all eternity. Presents we give and receive here are only temporary, and maybe will last for a little while. You can receive the gift that will last forever. Ask Jesus to forgive your sins and invite Him to be your Savior. It will be the best gift you will ever get and this Christmas you will truly have the joy you have never known.
This is a question that many people ask when tragedy comes, either personal or public. God is a loving God. For the Christian, God allows sorry and heartbreak into our lives to draw us closer to Him. For the unsaved., He is giving them an opportunity to seek Him for salvation and comfort. Do we understand? No! However, with the passage of time we see blessing. Hearing the testimonies of people who have overcome great tragedies in their lives helps us to get through the hard times. If you are facing trials it is the time to draw close to God. He will be with you in every circumstance.
1 Peter 5:7
Casting all your care upon him; for he careth for you.
This poem was found on the internet about the people we should love to show God’s love to us:
Do Everything In Love
In everything you do,
Do it in love
For the Father is watching
In Heaven above.
At work or at play
Offer words of kindness to others
To the cashier, the barber
The bus driver and new mothers.
Jesus is the example
That we all should follow
Love is the ultimate gift
To give those in good times and sorrow.
1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another: for love is of God; and every one that loveth is born of God, and knoweth God.
The greatest love of your life should be the Lord Jesus. Stop and tell Him today how much you love Him! Then tell the ones you love how much you love them. HAPPY VALENTINES DAY!!!!!
John 3:16 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.
“God help me be the person my dog thinks I am.” This is a church sign with a lot of truth.
If you have a dog, you feed him, provide shelter, love him, watch that he is comfortable and he or she is your companion and friend.
A dog is loyal, loves you no matter what, is waiting and rejoices when you come home, is a true friend.
Our relationship with God should be the same. He takes care of us, provides food and shelter, loves us, watches over us and is always our companion and friend.
We should take a lesson from our pets. We should love God with all our heart, be loyal, watch for the Lord to come back and rejoice in His presence.
Mark 12:30 And thou shalt love the Lord thy God with all thy heart, and with all thy soul, and with all my mind, and with all thy strength: this is the first commandment.
Thanksgiving is less than a week away and it is a good time to think about how wonderful God has been in our lives. Everyday through Thanksgiving we will focus on one of His special blessings.
The greatest thing we can give God thanks for is sending His Son, Jesus, to die on the cross that we can have eternal life. Thank you Father for your wonderful love.
John 3:16 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.
Praying is work. Have you ever been praying and your mind will wander to a different subject? Or not been able to get to sleep and decided to pray and in just a little while you have fallen asleep?
Prayer is the one weapon the that Satan does not want you to use. Prayer will give you answers to problems or decisions that you are unsure about. God delights in hearing from His children.
The most wonderful thing is that He is interested in the smallest things in our lives and He loves to have us ask for them. Need a parking place or want to have someone call you that you haven’t heard from in awhile? Then there it is.. the parking place right in front of the building. The phone rings and the person who you wanted to talk to is calling. Coincidence some people say. No, answer to prayer from a loving Father who loves His children, and likes to give good things to them.
Matthew 7:11 If ye then, being evil, know how to give good gifts unto your children, how much more shall your Father which is in heaven give good things to them that ask him?
