Thanks for joining me this morning..I am so glad that you have taken a few minutes from your busy day to spend some time here on the internet campus...I pray that today's verse and devotional brings you closer to Him as you walk through life.
Don't you love to get gifts? I sure do. One of my favorite things in the world is to get a surprise gift. Not because it's my birthday...or Christmas...but just because. No reason...only that the person giving the gift loves me.
Today...never forget that the reason Heaven is possible for us is because of a gift with no strings attached. Given to us by Someone who loves us immeasurably. There is nothing you or I can do to earn our way into Heaven. We all fall short. God has chosen to make eternal life possible...not because we are good...not because we work hard...not even because we go to church... We can live forever together in Heaven because of His grace and our faith.
He showers His grace on us each and every morning. Even right now as you read this...your sins are already forgiven. Yesterday's shame is erased. The blemish from your past that won't shake loose...gone from the mind of our Graceful God.
All that this requires is our faith. Faith in God as Savior. Faith in God as King. Faith in Christ as Lord. If you've made this decision...you have received the gift. If you haven't yet and you'd like to...leave a comment with your phone number below and I will contact you via telephone to lead you as you make that decision.
Don't live today as a defeated and beaten person. Remember...if you are a Christ-follower....you have a special gift...your eternity is secured...your sins forgiven. Go after it today! You are a child of God....He loves you...no strings attached.
Pastor Brian
