Do you know how our bible is so different from that of other religions? What makes Our God so different and special? Our beliefs get lost in the clutter of our world. We think as though the message of scripture can't be true. We think we can earn or impress God into making us special. The thinking of the human mind is not the same as the thinking of our God just as His ways are not the same as our ways. He is perfect. We are flawed and sinful. Do you believe in the words of the bible? Do you understand what it is telling you? Do you understand the full message it is giving? Do you believe that God has ALWAYS loved you and ALWAYS wanted you as part of His family? It is true. Do you know that the Bible is the only bible in the world that accepts you as you are? Did you know that it is also the only bible that proclaims you cannot fix the human condition (sin) on your own or (for that matter) doesn't tell you don't have a problem? Did you know that the bible is the only one that declares that God provided the solution for FREE? You can't earn it! You don't deserve it but it is a gift of love. It is FREE! God so loved the world that He sent His only begotten son to be Crucified on the cross for our sins that we may become sons in His family. Remember that God knew of our sin and loved us anyway. He gave us a way to be forgiven and to join Him as family in spite of our sin. Scripture tells the truth. It is based on the unconditional love of our Lord. No suicides in the name of, no hatred, no them versus us, no negative anything, no way to earn it. God is Love. (1 John 4:8) He that does not know love does not know God. (1 John 3:4) To not love is to live in death. The bible is truth. It is a record of who we are no matter the pain of it. It is also a promise of Hope and a love like no other on this planet. You cannot earn what was always there for the asking despite the human condition. All that is required is that you believe in Christ and the true bible.

That is it for this week. May the good Lord bless and keep you safe. Remember to "Always Love The Details."
Your colored images take my breath away in how you bring them to life with Copics. She's beautiful and I can see why she's a favorite of Jill's. I'm a believer and always was. May the good Lord bless and keep you and yours safe too. Have a great week ahead.

ReplyDeleteFabulous image and a great quote!
ReplyDeleteGod loves us so completely and infinitely, JIm, I can't even begin to describe it. Maybe, He's not interested in how we articulate about what this love is, but to simply live it out, spreading His Gospel by example.

Good word Jim! It’s unfathomable how much He loves us inspite of what or who we are. Like David I can’t help but wonder “ what is man that thou art mindful of him? “
