LIFE

LIFE is not a puzzle.  It is difficult and chaotic but the Jesus keeps us balanced and able to move forward however difficult life gets.  Jesus is our salvation.  He is the way, the truth and the life.  

8/28                 Romans 8:31 
“What shall we say about such wonderful things as these? If God is for us, who can ever be against us?”

YOU

God is for you.  You count.  Your life has value.  You are important to God-He has a plan for your life.  He has forgiven you and seeks to help you live your best life.  

8/27                 Matthew 28:20 
“Teach these new disciples to obey all the commands I have given you. And be sure of this: I am with you always, even to the end of the age.”

NOT ALONE

Whatever else modern society teaches us and no matter how alone we may feel, Jesus tells us that when we come to the Father, we will never be alone.  Jesus connects us with the Father.  

8/26                 Isaiah 41:10 
“Don’t be afraid, for I am with you. Don’t be discouraged, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you. I will hold you up with my victorious right hand.”

POWER

There is power for us in Jesus Christ.  He connects us with the Father and Holy Spirit.  God’s hand is for us.  He will see us through.  

8/25                 Psalm 147:3 
“He heals the brokenhearted and bandages their wounds.”

WHERE? 
Where are you?   Hurting, wounded and alone?  Jesus will heal your hurt, bandage your wounds and renew your heart and soul.  Jesus is Lord and He is with you.  

8/24                 Psalm 27:10 
“Even if my father and mother abandon me, the Lord will hold me close.”

LIFE

Life has a way of hurting us.  Sometimes even our own family abandons us.  The Lord will never abandon you.  He will always hold you close.  Jesus is always with you.  

8/23                 Joshua 1:9
“This is my command — be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid or discouraged. For the Lord your God is with you wherever you go.”

ALWAYS

The Lord Jesus is always with you.  You are never alone.  He will not abandon you.  You belong to Him.  Turn to Jesus.  Let Him connect with you and take control of your life.  

8/22                 Deuteronomy 31:6 
“So be strong and courageous! Do not be afraid and do not panic before them. For the Lord your God will personally go ahead of you. He will neither fail you nor abandon you.”

LIFE 

Life at its best is difficult.  On many occasions it is very hard.  Note, when you ask Jesus to save and believe in your heart that HE is God and HE has saved you, Jesus will always be with you.  He helps us, guides us, equips us, nurtures us and is always able to take us to the next level in our relationship with the Lord.  Jesus is Lord.  He is with us.  He has won the victory in the spiritual realm and is coming back for us one day.  Jesus is Lord.  

8/21                 2 KINGS 23:3
