Sunday Message

Dear Sisters & Brothers,

It has been a cold week here in Utah, God bless my Wife Debbie for digging in and shoveling the 9 inches of snow from the driveway for me before I got home, man Wives what would we do without their love and kindness in our lives.

Their will not be a Sunday Message next week as I’m off to warmer weather about 260 miles South of here to a training conference in St.George for a week learning new Building Codes.

Speaking of that special love between a Husband and Wife… what about Gods love for all of us as it says in the book of John.

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

This is the highest expression of love of which we can conceive. A parent who should give up his only son to die for others who are guilty if this could or might be done would show higher love than could be manifested in any other way. It really shows the depth of the love of God, that he was willing to give his only Son into the hands of sinful men that he might hang on a Cross and endure so much pain, and thus redeem us from eternal sorrow.

YES God LOVES US ! That is the greatest message we will ever hear. Thankfully, however, this is not just a message in words. God wanted us to know his love for us, so he demonstrated that love at great personal cost. God loves us! We know that because he gave his Son for us. God loves us! He didn't want the power of "perish" to claim us, so he gave us the power of his love. God loves us! He sacrificed so we could have life. God loves us! Don't ever doubt it. Don't let the evil one rob you of this life-giving truth. God loves you and wants to give you life!

You know just maybe we or someone we know have fallen away over time, this is a good day for restore your first love and renew that feeling that you once had or could have.

Father, I believe that you gave Jesus to save me from my sins. I confess that I cannot fully understand that love, but I thank you and praise you with all of my heart. Please forgive me when my life does not reflect your loving estimation of my worth.

Give me strength to believe what you say about me. I place my full trust in your love to continue its transformational work of redemption in me. Thank you that you are making me better than I am right now. Thank you even more for saving me from my sin and giving me life with you.

In Jesus' name. Amen.

God Bless and have a great week
