For Me…

Good morning, Precious Family:

May the Perfect Peace of our Lord, Jesus The Christ, be with you all.

Family, do you ever think about, from time to time, how truly blessed we are as children of the Most High God?

When I think about ALL that Jesus did, just for me, I cannot help but have a heart of gratitude and thankfulness. If Im being truly honest, a feeling of unworthiness comes over me as well.

When I think about all that we stand on as, Christians, and our belief in the perfected forms of God as Father, Son, and Holy Spirit; I stand in awe of the love and the sacrifice that was shown.

Think about it, Jesus took so much from people, just for us…

He took all the doubt of people calling him a false prophet. He took people treating him as a familiar boy growing up in Nazareth. He took religious leaders looking for ways to destroy him. He took his own disciples, not believing him. He did all of that BEFORE he was wiped, beaten, stabbed, and crucified on a cross. He did it all for me. He did it all for you.

Holy Scriptures

1 Peter 2:21-25

New International Version

21 To this you were called, because Christ suffered for you, leaving you an example, that you should follow in his steps.

22 “He committed no sin,
    and no deceit was found in his mouth.”[a]

23 When they hurled their insults at him, he did not retaliate; when he suffered, he made no threats. Instead, he entrusted himself to him who judges justly. 24 “He himself bore our sins” in his body on the cross, so that we might die to sins and live for righteousness; “by his wounds you have been healed.” 25 For “you were like sheep going astray,[b] but now you have returned to the Shepherd and Overseer of your souls.

Song of Worship

Pastor and Psalmist William Murphy

Family, please don’t take your walk with Christ as something that is common. God is not a common God. The Infinite, All Knowing, and Eternal Being made a decision to love us. Think about it. Think on the little things, today, of all the things God has done for you.

How Great!!!

Good morning, Precious Family:

I pray this week finds you in mindset of thankfulness and gratitude. We have so much to be thankful for each day.

One of the hardest lessons I had to learn years ago was that no matter the circumstance, I had to have an attitude of thankfulness and gratitude.

When life seems that it can not possibly get any more challenging or trying, that is the time to give God thanks. I know what I’m saying sounds completely backward, but it doesn’t make it any less true.

The purpose of having a spirit of thanksgiving is because it is a posture of worship. Worship is a second by second and minute by minute active posture. Our posture tells God that we trust the process of the perfect work of the cross being completed in us until we see God face to face.

Scriptures of Hope and Promises

Philippians 1:6

Amplified Bible, Classic Edition

And I am convinced and sure of this very thing, that He Who began a good work in you will continue until the day of Jesus Christ [right up to the time of His return], developing [that good work] and perfecting and bringing it to full completion in you.

Song of Worship and Praise

Family, I am confident in God’s love. It gives me hope and peace. May this same hope and peace be with you at all times and in every circumstance.

I love you all with the amazing and everlasting love of Jesus Christ, our Lord, Savior, and Redeemer. Amen.

Your sister in Christ,
