My Love Prayer!

Father, I’m not really sure why you love me?  I know you do. I know you made me in your image, but most days I feel so unworthy.  Most days I look at my sin… my actions… my attitude… and I wonder how ashamed you are of me?  Then my mind turns to your son.  I weep over the sacrifice he made.  I cry and kneel in prayer knowing that because he was willing to go thru unbelievable pain that my life is whole.  Then my thoughts turn to how deeply you must love me.  So much that you would give your only son to be beaten, to be spat on, to be nailed to the cross. Father, that was your way of saying:  “I love you past your sin, I love you thru your actions, I love you regardless of your attitude and I will always call you my own”.  Father help me to be the man you would have me to be.   To be worthy of your son.  To be worthy of your love.  To shine your light to everyone that crosses my path.

Romans 8:39 

I love you!

There are thousands of interpretations of the bible. “How do we know what or who to believe?”Too be unsettled about God, faith, and scripture puts most people in a state of stress.  Because we will never fully understand the bible, or…

Just Ask!

Thirty seven times.  Thirty Seven!!  H2O became wine.  Evil spirits ran in fear.  Fish jumped into nets, at his calling.  Leprosy vanished with a touch.  Small fish, and simple bread, fed thousands with a thought.  Walking on water… no problem.  Blindness vanished with a little spit and mud.  Even a simple touch of his garment…

A World Of Love!

Her question was simple.  Anyone who knows me would say it was well warranted.  My sweet granddaughter was simply curious and concerned.  “Why do you cry so easily”?  I cry so often, I think Kleenex could use me as a poster boy!  My answer was simple.  “God blessed me with a heart, so full of…
