Happy Easter

 


~Happy Easter to all my family and friends~

"God made Him who had no sin to be sin for us, so that in Him we might
become the righteousness of God." 2 Corinthians 5:21 (NIV)


God, in His great love for us, sent His Son, Jesus, who had no sin, to become sin for us. Jesus endured so much pain and suffering for our sake by taking our past, present and future sins to the cross. Through Jesus, we shall have eternal life. May we hold this truth tightly with grateful hearts. 

With love,
Patty

God's Banner Of Love



In February, the focus is Valentine's Day, when we let our family and friends know how much we love them. Do you do anything special for Valentine's Day? Feel free to comment below; I would enjoy hearing from you.
The song "His Banner Over Me Is Love" is a reminder and comfort that God loves us daily and of His banner of love. Today, I would like to share the lyrics to this song:

~His Banner Over Love Me Is Love~
The Lord is mine, and I am His
His banner over me is love
The Lord is mine, and I am His
His banner over me is love
The Lord is mine, and I am His
His banner over me is love
His banner over me is love!
He brought me to His banqueting table
His banner over me is love
He brought me to His banqueting table
His banner over me is love
He brought me to His banqueting table
His banner over me is love
His banner over me is love!
He is the vine, and we are the branches
His banner over me is love
He is the vine, and we are the branches
His banner over me is love
He is the vine, and we are the branches
His banner over me is love
His banner over me is love!
Jesus is the rock of my salvation
His banner over me is love
Jesus is the rock of my salvation
His banner over me is love
Jesus is the rock of my salvation
His banner over me is love
His banner over me is love!


Thank you for following my page; I appreciate all of you.
If you know anyone who would like to follow my page, you are welcome to share it with your family and friends.


With love,

Our Day-To-Day Roles


                                  

As I waited to have the transmission fluid changed in my car the other day, I marveled at how efficiently the shop took care of everything. Each person had their role, from getting me checked in and explaining what would be done to my car to the person who changed the transmission fluid. There was a comfortable waiting area which was a bonus. They all worked together to make sure they completed the job.
So it is, too, with each of us, we have our roles of ensuring that things are taken care of within our families, households, workplace, and church. Today, my post is to bring a little encouragement. May God continue to give each of you strength and endurance as you journey through each day.
"What, then, shall we say in response to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us?"
Romans 8:31

With love,
Patty

The Best Special Of All!



With the Black Friday specials happening right now, I realized that God gave us the best special of all-eternal life through His Son, Jesus!  
We don't even have to wait until Black Friday to receive this special-Jesus is always here for us. 
"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. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him."  John 3:16-17 (NIV)

With love,
Patty

God Created Each Of Us In His Own Image




This past week, I had a dentist appointment, and I saw a joke that is so fitting: What do dentists call their x-rays? Tooth pics! Jokes are a great icebreaker; they call us to smile, laugh, or even roll our eyes (right). Humor is a gift from God and, when used at the right time, is very helpful because, otherwise, we can take things too seriously.
We are blessed knowing God created us in His own image. "So God created mankind in His own image, in the image of God He created them: male and female He created them." Genesis 1:27. This Bible verse is a good reminder of how much God loves us.

This week, share a joke or a funny story with someone. If you would like, feel free to share in the comments below. I would love to hear from you.

With love,
Patty

Where Can We Find Our Identity?


There are many things where we can find our identity: our name, age, marital status, weight, skin color, where we live, and so many other components of our lives. While these things make up who we are, our true identity is in the love that God our Father has for us, and He loved us enough to send His Son Jesus to take our sins upon the cross so that we will have eternal life.
Today, I would like to share some Bible verses where we can find our identity:
  • "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
  • "Therefore, there is now no condemnation for those who are in Christ Jesus." Romans 8:10 (NIV)
  • "But you are a chosen people, a royal priesthood, a holy nation, God's special possession, that you may declare the praises of Him who called you out of darkness into His wonderful light." 1 Peter 2:9 (NIV)
  • "For you are a people holy to the LORD your God. The LORD, your God, has chosen you out of all the peoples on the face of the earth to be His people, His treasured possession." Deuteronomy 7:6 (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)
Do any of these Bible verses resonate with you? If so, feel free to comment below. I would love to hear from you. Maybe even write them down in a journal if you would like so that the verses are there to refer back to often.

Dear Heavenly Father,
We come to you now and thank You for all the components that are a part of our lives. Help us to rest our identity in Your love and in Your Son, Jesus.
In Jesus' name, we pray,
Amen

With love,
Patty

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

The Lord Really Does Care For Each Of Us

My weekend mornings are spent reading, writing, and praying. As I sit in my chair facing the east, the sun illuminates my apartment, letting me know the Lord is bringing in another day.
He's the creator of the universe, yet He cares about every detail of our lives. There are so many Scripture verses that give proof that the Lord cares about us, and I would like to share some of them in this post:
  • "Are not five sparrows sold for two pennies? Yet not one of them is forgotten by God. Indeed, the very hairs of your head are all numbered. Don't be afraid; you are worth more than many sparrows." Luke 12:6-7 (NIV)
God doesn't forget the sparrows, and He has numbered the very hairs on our heads. We are worth more than sparrows, and this is so amazing. 
  • "Therefore, I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink, or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?" Matthew 6:27-28 (NIV)
These Scripture verses in Matthew affirm what was said in the verses in Luke above. God feeds the birds; we are much more valuable than them. Very reassuring.

  • "Cast all your anxiety on Him because He cares for you." 1 Peter 5:7 (NIV)
We can cast all our cares, worries, and anxiety on Him. His word tells us clearly that He cares for us. Amen.

  • "Cast your cares on the LORD, and He will sustain you; He will never let the righteous be shaken." Psalm 52:22 (NIV)
Yes, there are and will be times when we do indeed feel shaken. This Scripture verse gives us another reassurance that the Lord cares for us. 



Let us pray together;
Dear Heavenly Father,
Help us as only You can to know and trust that You care for us. When we are unsure, remind us that Your word gives us reassurance.
In the name of Jesus, we pray,
Amen

May you rest this week knowing the Lord cares for you.

With love,
Patty

Keep A Song In Your Heart


My late mother-in-law, Marie, bless her heart, loved to hum. She would hum often, and although I did not know precisely what she was humming, she kept a song in her heart, and I admired that in her. 
Most of us (if not all of us) grew up singing "Jesus Loves Me-This I Know." This song may appear for young children, but Jesus loves us no matter our age. The Bible does indeed tell us that Jesus loves us in the following verses:
  • “As the Father has loved Me, so have I loved you. Now remain in My love." John 15:9 (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)
As a new week begins, may the song "Jesus Loves Me-This I Know" bring joy and peace to your heart. Here are the lyrics:

Jesus Loves Me-This I Know Lyrics

Jesus loves me-this I know,
For the Bible tells me so;
Little ones to Him belong;
They are weak, but He is strong.

Refrain:
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
Yes, Jesus loves me!
The Bible tells me so.

Jesus loves me! This I know,
As He loved so long ago,
Taking children on His knee,
Saying, “Let them come to Me.”

Jesus loves me still today,
Walking with me on my way,
Wanting as a friend to give
Light and love to all who live.

Jesus loves me! He who died
Heaven’s gate to open wide;
He will wash away my sin,
Let His little child come in.

Jesus loves me! He will stay
Close beside me all the way;
Thou hast bled and died for me,
I will henceforth live for Thee.

With love,
Patty

Got Keys?


Do you have keys? I know I sure do. One morning last week, I realized how often I use keys. A key to lock and unlock my apartment door, a key to start my car, a key to open the door at work, and a key to open my mailbox. Without keys, we cannot move forward with our day.
God has a key to eternal life for us. He loved us enough to send His Son Jesus to take our past, present, and future sins when He died on the cross. Jesus rose from the dead with God's divine power. God's word tells us in John 3:16-17-"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. For God did not send His Son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him." (NIV)
May you rest this week knowing God has given you a key to eternal life through His Son Jesus.

With love
Patty

God's Love Is Everlasting


We may not always feel worthy of God's love, yet His love is always here for us. We are all worthy of His love.
Life gets complicated and downright challenging because we live in a fallen world. However, there is one thing we can be sure of God loves us, and He loved us enough to send His Son Jesus to take our past, present, and future sins to the cross. 
May you rest this week knowing God loves you. His love is everlasting.

God bless you,
Patty
