Titus 2:11-14

If we simply follow the plan God has given us, we will receive everlasting life. With eternity spent with God, he will provide treasures beyond our wildest imaginations. All we have to do is follow Him. Lead purified lives, which only benefits us anyways. God wants to save us from our darkness, sin, and misery, but he will only do that is we sincerely ask him to. We don't deserve it, but he gives us the option.

verse

gallations 4:4-7

We are heirs of God through Christ. How humbling. Thank you Jesus. How can they not feel your presence? What you did resonates through the generations. I love you. I'm so unworthy, but still you love me. I am yours.

verse

gallations 3:26-29

Amazing. how reassuring and strengthening. I am in Christ! And with that comes salvation. I am a Child of God--and that is all that matters.


verse

Collosians 1:9-14

That's what I want-- to be filled with His knowledge and understanding. Sometimes it can get frustrating not understanding why things happen. It's hard to focus on the bigger picture and what God is doing in his perfect way rather than a conflicting event. That's what I need to pray for. When I commit to pleasing him, I will reap the benefits: His grace and comfort--the redemption he offers. He's here to rescue us!

verse

1 Timothy 4:12-16

We need to do works of God out in the world--publicly. God wants us to read, teach, and do his word! In our everyday life, we need to set examples of Jesus--in conduct, in speech, in love, in faith and in purity. We need to love our neighbors as ourselves, and that means we have to try to get them saved. We were given the gift of knowing God, and we need to spread that knowledge. That is how we get ourselves and others saved.

verse

1 John 3:1-3

If we follow Christ, the world will not understand us because the world does not know Christ. This is okay though, because we are Christ's beloved. Even if the world does not know us now, when Christ returns, they will know him and then the world will see that we are like him. With hope in Him, we can be purified even like he is pure.

verse

Ephesians 1:3-8

The Lord loves us. It is plain and simple. He created us to be his children. He forgives us with his amazing grace so that we can be saved. He will bless those who walk in him, blameless, as we should be. Praise his holy name--he is generous when we don't deserve it.

verse

1 Peter 1:17-21

We can't escape our heritage. Sin has been passed on to every one of us from our forefathers. It is the way we are born. But God gave his only Son so that we may have to opportunity to be rid of our sins. We can be born again--cleansing our souls of sin by repenting from them. It is through the shed spotless blood of Christ we are able to do this. Through Christ we can take up God's offer of eternal life in Heaven. We all will be judged on the choices we make--run to Christ, and we will be saved.

verse

John 1:10-13

This just screams purpose to me. God created each and every one of us. So many people in the world are ignorant to his power, grace, and love. So many people turn to the world, not realizing that God is the only one who can truly satisfy us. He's given us so much, and he wants us to be with him. Once people start realizing this world will always let them down in one way or another, they can turn and experience the love of Jesus Christ.
