Goodness of God
carolgunter


Our nation is so blessed by the goodness of God and the love and mercy He shows for us. On Christmas morn did you thank God for his son, Jesus on His birthday that Christmas Day, before you did anything else? I hope you did as I did, too. For Jesus to sacrifice His life and shed, His precious blood on that cross at Calvary it is so hard at times for us to understand just why He cares for us so much. He just does and He doesn’t want any of us to perish. He only wants us to live for eternity in heaven with Him. Sounds like the best plan around for us to be saved and all we have to do to get to heaven is be sincere and ask Jesus to forgive us of our sins. Life in this world after receiving Jesus as your Savior not dull anymore. Only Jesus can bring you to life and give your humdrum life a purpose and that purpose is to serve Him as Master. Jesus can make such a powerful transformation in anyone’s life. They’ll not be that same old sinful person they used to be. All they will want is to praise and worship Jesus and let others know how magnificent He is and they will be so glad they didn’t put off coming to Jesus longer. Please try Jesus and you’ll know what I’m telling you is so true. Remember, too, Jesus is right there for you because He loves you dearly so don’t be afraid at all to call upon His wondrous and beautiful name as only Jesus can save your soul so you can be in heaven someday.

Please keep in your prayer: Jeff Brown, Tim Howes, Helen Nixon, Charlie Mai Daniel, and Dr. J.C. Wall.
