One of the greatest promises God has given us is adoption to be children of God. For those of us who believe, He has accepted us to be part of His family and heirs of eternal life (more on this next time). He didn’t decide to adopt us because of our love for Him or all the great things that we have done, but because He loved us, because Christ died for us that we may be sons of God. I talked last time about being a sponsor for children and how missionaries go to a strange land and accept children as their own, sharing God’s love. How much more does God love us and accept us as His children. What an awesome thing! Continue reading “God’s Promise: Adoption”

Be Ready: Live for Jesus’ Return
In the previous post, we talked about using what God has given us to further His kingdom. When Christ returns, how will we answer the question, “what have you done with the talents I gave you?” Another question we might ask ourselves is, “how are we living to prepare for Jesus’ return?” Will He say to us, “Well done, good and faithful servant?” Will there be other people in heaven because of us or other believers who have become more mature because of the work God has done through us? Did we follow His will and fulfill the ministries He gave us? Of course the most important question, is, “Do you know Jesus and is He Lord of your Life?” Does He know you?

It is going to be a great day for those of us who are in Christ, but terrible for those who have rejected Him. Thanks be to God for His grace! I pray that you have accepted that grace or will accept it. Continue reading “Be Ready: Live for Jesus’ Return”
Welcome to my blog
My very first post! I am very new at this blogging thing so we will see how it goes. Look at my about tab to see what I am going to do. This is basically sort of a test page. Any suggestions are welcome. As I learn more I hope to include a testimony, but I will get started on my daily scriptures first. I have started doing this on facebook, so I will add all of the posts I have created there onto here. First, I need to research the copyright stuff before including pictures that are not my own. I also hope to categorize my blog posts to make it easier to find things.
