Billboard Sign-God Loves All People-No Exceptions




Billboard signs are everywhere, usually brief and to the point. The most recent billboard sign I saw said, "God loves all people-no, exceptions." Many Bible verses point to this truth:

"For God so loved the world that He gave His one and only Son, that whoever believes in Him shall not perish but have eternal life." John 3:16 (NIV) 

"But God demonstrates His own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us." Romans 5:8 (NIV)

"This is love: not that we loved God, but that He loved us and sent His Son as an atoning sacrifice for our sins." 1 John 4:10 (NIV) 

"For God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ."
1 Thessalonians 5:9 (NIV)

Billboard Sign: You Are Loved Beyond Measure


I saw a billboard sign that reads "You Are Loved Beyond Measure." These are encouraging words for each of us, and Ephesians 3:19 gives us further encouragement:
"May you experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully. Then you will be made complete with all the fullness of life and power that comes from God." 
Thank you, Lord, for loving us beyond measure.
Amen

May we all rest this week knowing we are loved beyond measure.

With love,
Patty

Billboard Sign: God Is Working In You Right Now

 

Billboard signs always grab my attention and get me thinking, as I have shared in previous posts:
here and here. When I read, "God is working in you right now," I thought, this is a powerful and encouraging statement for you and me. Yet, how can we know that God is working in us? We can gain insight by turning to God's word. The following Scripture verses will give us reassurance that He is indeed working in each of us:
  • "For we are God's handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do." Ephesians 2:10 (NIV)
  • "Being confident of this, that He who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus." Philippians 1:6 (NIV)
  • "May the favor of the Lord our God rest on us; establish the work of our hands for us— yes, establish the work of our hands." Psalm 90:17 (NIV)
  • "There are different kinds of working, but in all of them and in everyone it is the same God at work." 1 Corinthians 12:6 (NIV)
  • "I have been crucified with Christ and I no longer live, but Christ lives in me. The life I now live in the body, I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave Himself for me." Galatians 2:20 (NIV)
May you rest this week knowing that God is working in you.

With love,

Patty

Embrace Jesus The True Prince Of Peace


 I seem to be drawn to billboard signs; they get me thinking, as I talk about in this post.  The recent billboard sign I saw said, "Embrace Jesus, The True Prince Of Peace." For many of us, we may not be feeling peace with the events that have taken place in 2020. And maybe beyond the events that have taken place, we may be dealing with other personal things-loss of loved ones, illness, job loss, stress levels are high, distance learning for children; for each of us, we have our own set of circumstances that take away peace. For myself, I miss my son, Joe, and my husband, Paul. 
With all this being said, how can we embrace Jesus and find peace?  Although I will not pretend to have all the answers, here are a few thoughts that may be helpful, and feel free to add your own thoughts:
  • The mention of the name Jesus brings peace.
  • Jesus Himself said, "I am leaving you with a gift-peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give you is a gift the world cannot give. So do not be troubled or afraid." (John 14:27).
  •  Find peace in knowing that Jesus took our past, present, and future sins to the cross. We are forgiven. "If we confess our sins, He is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness" (1 John 1:19).
  • Spend time with family and friends. If unable to spend time in person, perhaps a phone call, face-time, or a zoom call.
Prayer:
Dear Heavenly Father,
With everything that is happening in the world and within our lives, it is hard for us to find peace. It seems Lord, circumstances in life take away any peace there is. Help us embrace Jesus, and when we do, may we find peace.
In Jesus name, we pray,
Amen

May you embrace Jesus and find peace.

Be A Blessing To Others


 Recently, I read a sign that said, "Be A Blessing To Others ." It served as a good reminder, and I started thinking, how can we be a blessing to others?  For the past several days, I have been writing some ideas in my journal, and I thought I would share them on my blog. 
  • Hold the door open for the person that is behind you.
  • Donate food to a food shelf.
  • Mail a note to a family member or friend.
  • Let someone go ahead of you in line at the store.
  • Donate clothing to charities.
  • Send a text message to say "hi."
  • Bring a meal to someone.
  • Invite someone over for a meal.
  • Offer to get groceries for someone.
  • Pray for others. This Bible verse can be helpful---"I urge you, first of all, to pray for all people. Ask God to help them; intercede on their behalf, and give thanks for them." (1 Timothy 2:1).
Although I have only scratched the surface on ways to be a blessing to others.
Perhaps you have some ideas as well. Feel free to comment below.
I would love to hear from you.
