Once again Florida and neighboring States have gone through a storm. Wind, rain and devastation. People’s lives uprooted until the storm passes by.
Then, after the storm the sun comes out and lives get back to normal.
Our Christian lives are the same. Storms come. Losses. Maybe it’s a loved one, illness, broken relationships. Whatever your storm, it will pass. The blessing is that you have someone who will carry you through that storm. His name is Jesus.
Jesus will never leave or forsake you. That is a promise from God’s Word. So if you are in the middle of a storm in your life, turn to the Savior who will carry you through.
Do yo get tired of all the talking about things that may be doubtful?
Can we trust the newscasters? The printed words that are just gossip. Words that are hurtful from a friend or relative. Foul language from movies or television. There are many ways we get words that we don’t want to read or listen to.
Good News! There is one place we can go where we know the words are pure and truthful. That is in this Bible.
God’s word brings comfort to hurting hearts. The Bible has many exciting stories if you are looking for excitement. Daniel, David, Esther and many more.
The Bible has answers to our life’s problems. In it is truth and tells of a person who can help us in every situation. His name is Jesus.
So pick up that wonderful Book today and find truth.
Put God first in everything you do. Jesus should be the love of your life.
Love Him with your heart. He should be the One you are longing to see. Spending time each day with Him. Reading His Word. Communicating with Him in prayer.
Jesus should be the One you think about. Sometimes we only think about Him when we have a need. We need to be thinking about Him and talking with Him in the glad times too.
Our soul is our inner self. The spiritual part that is separate from our physical body. Jesus is the only One that can fill that empty void that we have before we know Him as our Savior.
Have you ever been on a trip, in a hospital or just visiting but you are longing for home?
There is an old saying “Home is where the heart is”. How true. We can be in any place and still feel at home if we are surrounded by people we love.
As Christians we should be long for HOME. Our heavenly home where we shall see Jesus and be reunited with family and friends who have gone one before us. However, while we are still traveling this earth we do have our loved One Jesus, who is with us 24/7 no matter where we are.
So, today, wherever you are you can feel at home with your Comforter and Friend Jesus but looking forward to the day when we will reach our Heavenly home.
Jesus is THE GOOD SHEPHERD, however, someone else is a shepherd also, he is the Pastor of your church.
Pastors look after their flock. That is you and me. They look for lost souls, they bring comfort when we are sick or hurt, they keep us from getting into sin through their preaching.
Pastors who love Jesus and look to Him for help and guidance, they want their sheep to follow Him. Pray for your pastor today!
Many of us travel especially in the summer. Vacations, Family Reunions, Weddings maybe even Work.
Someone who goes wherever you go is God. If you know Jesus as your Savior, He is with you wherever you go. That is a great blessing.
It is also a challenge. If you are tempted do do something you know is wrong because no one is there. Remember, God is with you and He sees everything that you do.
So enjoy your travels. Be thankful for the assurance that you are in the safety of God’s presence.
