Saving Grace of Jesus



Saving Grace of Jesus
While attending an AA  meeting recently  a woman stood up and said, “Hi, my name’s __________ and I’m a recovering alcoholic-addict.” Everyone in the circle responded in unison, “Hi ___________.” Then the speaker said, “I just want to thank Jesus, because when I couldn’t pick myself up off the ground, He bent over and scooped me up and carried me His-self!” I clapped and amen-ed enthusiastically along with everybody else and then I started crying. Because I can remember seasons when I didn’t have the energy or belief to haul my raggedy heart up one more of life’s steep hills and our Redeemer carried me.
How cool would it be if we started worship each Sunday with, “Hi my name’s Lisa and I’m a sinner whose only hope is in the saving grace of Jesus”?
                                                                                                                              Lisa Harper
Lisa Harper may have written the words but I feel myself saying the same thing. 
There have been so many seasons in my life when Christ carried me.
Hi, my name is Mary and I’m a sinner whose only hope is in the saving grace of Jesus.

Until Next Time

And after you have suffered a little while, the God of all grace, who has Called you to his eternal glory in Christ, will himself restore, confirm, strengthen, and establish you. 
1 Peter 5:10

Touching My Heart Tuesday


I love when God speaks to my heart!


~ ♥ ~ ♥ ~ ♥ ~


You are my beloved child, your
hope and your future are rooted
in heaven.

(Now, doesn't that just sound awesome?)

Behold what manner of love the
Father has bestowed on us,
that we should be called
children of God!
1 John 3:1a

But, as it is written, "what no
eye has seen, nor ear heard,
nor the heart of man imagined,
what God has prepared for those
who love him.
1Corinthians 2:9

~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~

Nothing can rob you or your
inheritance.

(WooHoo!!)

And you were also included in Christ
when you heard the world of truth,
the gospel of salvation.
Having believed, you were
marked in him with a seal,
the promised Holy Spirit,
who is a deposit guaranteeing
our inheritance until the
redemption of those who are
God's possession -
to the praise of His glory.
Ephesians 1:13-14

~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~

Focus on staying close to me.

(My favorite place to be,
close to God.)

The Lord is near to all who
call on him, to all who call on
him in truth.
Psalm 145:18

~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~  ♥  ~

I set the pace in keeping with your
needs and My purposes.

(The best pace is God's pace.
For sure!!)

"For I know the plans I have for
you," declares the Lord,
"plans to prosper you and
not to harm you,
plans to give you hope and
a future."
Jeremiah 29:11

Mission Monday

Your calendar may not include a missions
trip, but it can include a missions and
ministry project.



Involve your friends, family
or Sunday School class and
find ways to support your community.

Have a food drive and support
your local food bank.

Have a cake sale and donate
proceeds to a woman's shelter.

Support worthy community
activities that help the poor
meet basic needs.

...AND...

Something we all can do is

~PRAY~

Pray for our missionaries in
the field and pray for those
at home who dedicate themselves
to helping others and
showing them
God's Love.

Just a few ideas!!!

Until Next Time

So do not be ashamed to
testify about our Lord.
2 Timothy 1:8


ps...
I had a wonderful Mother's Day..
I hope you did too!!!
