GOD’S GIFT: YOUR JOY FOREVER
December 22, 2017

Prayer: Dear Lord, Thank You for bringing me into Your family. Please draw my students and family members and co-workers to know Jesus as Savior so they may be in my forever family in heaven. Thank You. Amen.

Scripture: God saved you by his special favor when you believed. And you can’t take credit for this; it is a gift from God.  Ephesians 2:8 NLT


Remember, always, that you are the beneficiary of God’s free gift of unconditional love. When you are doing well in your faith, you might feel good about what you are doing for God. Try to dismiss such thinking because you are not ever doing anything that comes close to comparing with what God has done for you. Always remember what price God paid through Christ, for us to be grafted into God’s family tree. And always remember that the same voice who spoke creation into being, also spoke you into being a part of His family so you are deeply and supremely loved.

I pray your day is filled with such remembrances. Find someone to show love to, in Jesus’ name today.

“Lead a life worthy of your calling, for you have been called by God. Be humble and gentle. Be patient with each other’s faults because of your love. Always keep yourselves united with the Holy Spirit and bind yourselves together with peace.” Ephesians 4:1-3 NLT
