IMPERFECT GIFTS

HI EVERYONE! ITS RAININ HERE IN THE BOTTOMS THIS MORNIN ,A MUCH NEEDED RAIN.THE AIR SMELLS GOOD LIKE DIRT OR A FRESH PLOWED FIELD...WHEN I WAS A CHILD ,I WONDERED WHY I HAD TO THANK GOD FOR FOOD I DIDNT WANT TO EAT.IN MY INMATURE MIND ,GRATITUDE WAS A RESPONCE TO RECIEVING SOMETHIN I WANTED--LIKE A HAMBURGER AN FRIES,NOT ASPARGUS.SO WHY DID I HAVE TO BE THANKFUL FOR SOMETHIN I DIDNT LIKE ,AND DIDNT WANT?IN THE HUMAN RELEM,MY THINKIN WAS LOGICAL.NOT EVERYTHING PEOPLE GIVE US IS FOR OUR GOOD AND OF COURSE NOT EVERYTHING WE WANT IS GOOD.BUT OUR SITUATION WITH OUR LORD IS DIFFERENT.AS CHRIST REMINDED US ,LOVING MOMS AND DADS DO NOT GIVE THEIR CHILDREN STONES RATHER THAT BREAD,A SNAKE INSTEAD OF A FISH.AND GOD IS WAY FAR MORE LOVING THAN OUR EARTHLY MOMS AND DADS.{MATTHEW 7 :9-11. THIS DOESNT MEAN GODS CHILDREN CAN EXPEXT A PAIN-FREE ,STRESS-FREE LIFE.JAMES TELLS US NOT ONLY THAT EVERY GOOD GIFT COMES FROM OUR HEAVENLY FATHER,BUT ALSO THAT WE ARE TO COUNT IT ALL JOY.WHEN WE FALL INTO VARIOUS TRIALS."THE TESTING OF OUR FAITH PRODUCES PATIENCE,"AND THE WORK OF PATIENCES MAKES US PERFECT AND COMPLETE,LACKING NOTHING".A TRIAL MAY BE GODS GOOD GIFT IN DISGUISE.EVEN WHEN WE RECIEVE SOMETHIN THAT ISNT GOOD ,WE CAN BE GRATEFUL BECAUSE WE KNOW THERE IS MORE TO IT THAN WE CAN SEE.WHAT SEEMS LIKE AN IMPERFECT GIFT MAY BE THE MEANS BY WHICH GOD PERFECTS US.WE ALL EXPERIENCE MANY THINGS IN LIFE THATS NOT TO GOOD ,BUT GOD IS THERE WITH US AS WE WALK THROUGH IT.GOD WILL ALWAYS BE THERE. ASK GOD INTO YOUR LIFE TODAY.ITS VERY SIMPLE ,ASK HIM TO FORGIVE YOU OF ALL YOUR SINS ,BELIEVE EVERYTHING THAT HES SAID ,IN YOUR HEART.AND TRUST HIM ,,THATS JUST THE BEGINNING OF AN AWSOME WALK WITH GOD ,,,,GOD LOVES YAS , WE LOVE YAS , HAVE A BLESSED DAY, YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM,,,RON,,,IF YOU NEED ANYTHING ,ALL YA GOTA DO IS ASK AND WE WILL HELP YA OUT IF WE CAN ,PRAYERS SENT FOR ALL OF YOUS ,,SEE YAS TOMORROW IF THE LORDS WILLIN !

RON

IT WAS GOOD TO MEET YA AT AUTUMN OAKS AND AS U SAID IT IS BETTER TO PUT A FACE WITH EACH OTHER THAN JUST TO TALK TO EACH OTHER WITHOUT EVER SEEING EACH OTHER. WE WERE TALKING ABOUT THAT AT CHURCH, WANT IT BE AWSUMN WHEN WE MEET GOD FACE TO FACE,WE ONLY BELIEVE AND LIVE ON GODS WORD AND PREACHING OF THE BIBLE NOW BUT IT WILL BE SO GOOD WHEN WE FINALLY MEET CHRIST WHEN IT IS OUR TIME TO GO.WE NEED TO HOLD TO OUR FAITH NO MATTER WHAT PEOPLE THINK,SOMETIMES IT'S NOT EASY BUT WE NEED TO PUT GOD FIRST BEFORE ANYTHING ELSE. KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK OF GOD AND HE WILL CONTINUE TO BLESS....

WE ARE FORGIVEN!!!

HELLO EVRYONE !!!!AS I AWAKE EACH DAY,OPEN MY EYES ,THE FIRST THING I THINK IS I GOT WORK TO DO ,,GOD HAS LEFT ME HERE FOR ANOTHER DAY TO WORK FOR HIM.SO I GOTA GET GOIN ,,MAY TODAYS MESSAGE BE A BLESSIN TO YOUR HEART...I READ IN A BOOK THE OTHER DAY A LITTLE BOY HAD JUST BEEN TUCKED INTO BED BY HIS MOTHER,WHO SAT BY HIS BED WAITIN TO HEAR HIS PRAYERS.THE LITTLE BOY HAD BEEN NAUGHTY THAT DAY,AND NOW IT WAS REALLY BOTHERING HIM.SO HE SAID "MOMA ,I WISH YOU WOULD GO NOW AND LEAVE ME ALONE I WANA PRAY BY MY SELF".SENSING SOMETHIN WAS WRONG,SHE ASKED ,"BOBBY IS THERE ANYTHING YOU OUGHT TO TELL ME?" " NO MOMA ," HE REPLIED.YOU WOULD JUST SCOLD ME,BUT, "GOD WILL FORGIVE ME THEN JUST FORGET ABOUT IT " BUT ,"I LOVE YOU ANYWAY."THAT LITTLE BOY UNDERSTOOD ONE OF THE GREATEST SALVATION BENEFITS OF ALL---THE REALITY OF SINS FORGIVEN. THE BIBLE INDICATES THAT IN CHRIST"WE HAVE REDEMPTION THROUGH HIS BLOOD,THE FORGIVNESS OF SINS"{COLOSSIANS 1 :14 }.WE WHO HAVE RECIEVED LORD JESUS AS SAVIOR ENJOY FREEDOM FROM SINS ETERNAL CONDEMVATION{ROMANS 8 :1},AND WE CAN ALSO HAVE DAILEY FORGIVNESS AND CLEANSING{JOHN 1 : 9}. THE APOSTLE PAUL SAID THAT SALVATION PROVIDES THESE ADDED BENEFITS;WE WERE JUSTIFIED{ROMANS 3 :24}, AND WE ARE AT PEACE WITH GOD .WHEN GOD FORGIVES THE SINS WE ASK FORGIVNESS FOR ,HE NEVER BRINGS THEM UP AGAIN. THANK GOODNESS FOR THAT.WE SHOULD NEVER GET THE IDEA THAT ARE SINS THAT WE COMMIT ARE TAKEN LIGHTLY BY OUR LORD,BUT WHEN WE SINSERLY ACKNOWLEDGE OUR GUILT WITH TRUE REPENTANCE ,GOD IS ALWAYS READY TO FORGIVE US BECAUSE OF WHAT JESUS DID ON THE CROSS...ITS UP TO US ,,ME AND YOU TO ACCEPT IT...FORGIVENESS OF SINS IS JUST BUT ONE OF THE GOOD THINGS GOD GIVES US,THINK OF ALL THE OTHER BLESSINS HE GIVES ALSO ,,,WE COULD TRY TO NAME THEM ONE BY ONE ,BUT WE CANT COUNT THAT FAR..SO AS YOU GO TO BED EACH NIGHT GET DOWN ON YOUR KNEES AND ASK GOD TO FORGIVE YA ,AS I KNOW I COMMIT SINS EACH DAY AND ITS HARD NOT TO..ONE DAY WERE GONA WALK THOSE STREETS OF GOLD AND WE WONT HAVE TO WORRY ABOUT SININ,AS GOD WILL HAVE TAKEN CARE OF THAT....GOD LOVES YAS , WE LOVE YAS , HAVE A BLESSED DAY,YOUR FRIEND IN CHRIST,,,FROM THE RIVERBOTTOM,,,RON......STEVE ,,IT WAS A PLEASURE TALKIN TO YOU AT A.O. ALSO EVEN FOR JUST THAT SHORT TIME,IM GLAD YA CALLED ME ,WHEN YA CALLED ,,I TOLD YA TO LOOK FOR A BIG BALDHEADED GUY IN BIBED OVERALLS ,,,HOW COULD YOU HAVE MISSED ME ,YOU WALKED RIGHT PASSED ME ,,I EVEN HAD TO SAY ARE YOU LOOKIN FOR ME !{LOL}.IM GLAD WE MET!AND TALKED ,,YA KNOW WHEN YA START TALKIN ABOUT OUR LORD ,I COULD FEEL HE WAS RIGHT THERE WITH US AS WE TALED ABOUT HIM ..IF YA EVER NEED ANYTHING JUST ASK AND WE WILL HELP YA OUT ,,,,PRAYERS SENT FOR EVERYBODY ,NEED PRAYERS? WERE ALL HERE FOR YA ,,,SEE YAS TOMORROW ,IF THE LORDS WILLIN......
