I don’t think “ Oh Lord, won’t you buy me a Mercedes Benz” (it’s a song, for you younger people, look it up), is what the verse on the image, is talking about! On the other hand, “give thanks in all circumstances; for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus” , 1 Thess 5:18, is one of many Bible verses that is clearly God’s will for us. We need to be continually in God’s word, that we may clearly know his plan and will for us, along with communicating and listening to him, regularly. God Bless You Today and give you what you need……..Alan
There is no shame in suffering for being a Christian. They may hate us for our faith, but just as Jesus did, we must love those as Jesus loved us, when we were enemies of God. May God show mercy, just as he did to us, for all have sinned and fallen short of the glory of God. Yet we have been set free by his Grace, through Jesus own love for us.
Salvation is free to all who come and drink from the water. The price that was paid was costly, but for those that come, they are freed from the bondage, of all that weighs them down in this fallen world. The message is simple, come. Please come? Don’t wait to the open invitation……….COME!
Oh Lord, help us never forget the mercy you have shown us, that we might also show mercy to those as undeserving as us.
Forgiveness is a beautiful thing. How can we as sons and daughters of God, not forgive as well? Father, may we be reminded continuously, of the grace you have shown us, that we may show it to others.
“But I say to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, so that you may be a sons of your Father who is in heaven; for He causes His sun to rise on the evil and the good, and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. Matt 5:44-45

Unlike the world of politics, we have a higher standard. Although, we are to give special attention to those in the body of Christ, we are to reflect Jesus, through loving those who are undeserving of our love, just as we were, and God still loved us. See how this concept, goes against everything in this world tells us to do! I pray, we can find someone, undeserving today, that we might show the Love of Jesus to, this day.
