THE ULTIMATE CHOICE

God so loved the world He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. John 3:16

Challenging your faith...God offers you a eternal life...accept it today

Eternal life is not an event that begins when you die. It begins when you invite Jesus into your heart right here on earth. So its important to remember God's plans for us is not limited to the ups and downs of everyday life. If you will allow Jesus to reign over your heart, you have already begun your eternal journey.

Let us praise the Creator for His priceless gift, and let us hare the good news with all that cross our paths. We return our Fathers love by accepting his grace and by sharing his message and love. Are you afraid to share God's word with other? Are you scared what they may say or think? Are you afraid they might ask a question that you cant answer. If you are like me these question go through my head all the time. So I thought of a few ways to share God's love. It might be small things but a good step in the right direction.

*carry small bibles or books to hand out
*help someone in the store with reaching an item or unloading the bags in their car
*homeless bags (which we are going to do)
*if someone holds the door for you say GOD BLESS YOU

It is like the commercial were it shows others helping others with different things. We should show everyone God's love. So as I type this I remember that this afternoon I got very upset with someone that was driving that didn't let me over and then was driving crazy. Instead of yelling at them I should have shown God's love and prayed for them. Plus the 4 kids that were with me would have seen how I acted and that would have been a good lesson for them. So what are some was we could show God's love as a group?

Prayer for today:
Lord I know that is world is not my home, I am only here for awhile. You have given me the priceless gift of eternal life through your Son. Keep my heart joyful with your love and help me to show that to others in all I do. For give me for actions that may not have been pleasing to you. Help me to pass through it with faith in my heart and praise on my lips. amen
