THANK GOD I'M FORGIVEN! PTL! Tell God all you are thankful about for your forgiveness and His great love, mercy and grace. Begin your day with worship. Enter His gates with  and His courts with praise. Father, I am thankful for________! I praise You for________!

Maybe start singing along with this: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=a_H4bNsmQvc&list=RDa_H4bNsmQvc&start_radio=1

Thanks all for your prayers for us and Maggie. She is now at peace. I can't imagine not having our dogs jump all over us when we get to heaven! What unconditional love we know from them here. And dog spelled backwards is GOD. He loves us like that too! PTL. Breathe easy girl. You have been a good and faithful friend! (Now Karen and I are bawling)

Good Morning Saved and Thankful Followers of the Way! Amen! Jesus is the Way and He knows, loves and dwells in us! PTL! He shows us unconditional love. We are forgiven. He knows us and calls us by name. He has and will forgive us always when we come with repentant hearts. All of that lead to overflowing praise to Him! That's all I have in me . Check out your devotionals and open your Bibles prayerfully . And worship! he is with us always and comforts when we mourn and gives strength as needed to endure and follow. Thanks Lord! Come lead us in Your good ways . Thanks! Amen!

Maybe one more song to help focus: Jesus paid it all: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TGcA1_b-TRc&list=RDTGcA1_b-TRc&start_radio=1


*BTW we will be studying Jesus' teaching from the end of Matt. 23 and into 24 . Next week we will finish 24 and wrap up with end of 25. Maybe pray through that  as you be still and know.

Prayer Points

  • Adore the merciful God who has given you “new birth into a living hope through the resurrection of Jesus Christ from the dead” (1 Pet. 1:3).
  • Give thanks that you have “an inheritance that can never perish, spoil or fade— kept in heaven for you” (1:4).
  • Seek God’s forgiveness as you confess times when you fail to maintain your hope.
  • Commit yourself to seeing trials as opportunities in which your faith “may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed” (1:7).
  • Ask God to fill you “with an inexpressible and glorious joy” (1:8-9).
  • The Lord says, “Though your sins are like scarlet, they shall be as white as snow” (Isa. 1:18). Pray that unsaved persons will understand that God desires to forgive and that they will seek that forgiveness.
