God enjoys me

God likes me

God prefers me

...then the Savior came, and He took the blame, changed everything.

If there be one place where our Lord Jesus most fully becomes the joy and comfort of His people, it is where He plunged deepest into the depths of woe. Come hither, gracious souls, and behold the Man in the garden of Gethsemane; behold His heart so brimming with love that He cannot hold it in-so full of sorrow that it must find a vent. Behold the bloody sweat as it distils from every pore of His body, and falls upon the ground. Behold the Man as they drive the nails into His hands and feet.

Look up, repenting sinners, and see the sorrowful image of your suffering Lord. Mark Him, as the ruby drops stand on the thorn-crown, and adorn with priceless gems the diadem of the King of Misery. Behold the Man when all His bones are out of joint, and He is poured out like water and brought into the dust of death; God hath forsaken Him, and hell compasseth Him about. Behold and see, was there ever sorrow like unto His sorrow that is done unto Him? All ye that pass by draw near and look upon this spectacle of grief, unique, unparalleled, a wonder to men and angels, a prodigy unmatched. Behold the Emperor of Woe who had no equal or rival in His agonies! Gaze upon Him, ye mourners, for if there be not consolation in a crucified Christ there is no joy in earth or heaven.

Charles H. Spurgeon

Have an exciting 2024!🥳

“But I thank God, who always leads us in victory because of Christ. Wherever we go, God uses us to make clear what it means to know Christ. It’s like a fragrance that fills the air.”

‭‭2 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭14‬ ‭GW‬

“I don’t know about you, but I’m running hard for the finish line. I’m giving it everything I’ve got. No lazy living for me! I’m staying alert and in top condition. I’m not going to get caught napping, telling everyone else all about it and then missing out myself.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭9‬:‭26‬-‭27‬ ‭MSG‬‬

I subdue the earth and have dominion over the fish of the sea

and over the fowl of the air and over every living thing that moves upon the earth

When God does it, He does it so well..

Do you ever get nostalgic for people who no longer are in your life? They stayed with you for a brief part of your childhood, college years or even work life and they touched your heart in a way that was warm, maybe they made you smile in a way that was genuine. Do you ever feel nostalgic for those people? Maybe they no longer talk to you, maybe they've lost touch, maybe they have moved away. And now you think of them, sometimes dream of them, as if the conversation is still where you last left it. And then, you miss them, you just do. You don't want anything more, not even a conversation, but just the nostalgia is good, it's warm, and you just wish them good in your prayers. Nostalgia is proof that my heart knows to forgive, and love across time and space.

Nostalgia by Sounds of Pneuma

A young man mockingly said to a preacher, "You say that unsaved people carry a great weight of sin.

Frankly, I feel nothing. How heavy is sin? Ten pounds? Fifty pounds?

Eighty pounds? A hundred pounds?" The preacher thought for a moment and gently replied,

"If you laid a four hundred-pound weight on a corpse, would it feel the load?" The young man was quick to say, "Of course not; it's dead." The preacher replied, "The person who doesn't know Christ is equally dead. And though the load is great, he feels none of it."

We sometimes tend to think we know all we need to know to answer these kinds of questions—but sometimes our humble hearts can help us more than our proud minds. We never really know enough until we recognize that God alone knows it all.”

‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭8:2-3‬ ‭MSG‬‬

You are the joy no one can ever take away

You are the peace inside that I cannot explain

You are the strength I need

You are my hiding place

Jesus , Jesus , Jesus

Jesus Is Lord. That’s it, that’s all.

Let my eyes see Your kingdom shine all around

Let my heart overflow with passion for Your name

Let my life be a song, revealing who You are

For You are salt and light

Move the immovable

Break the unbreakable

God, we believe

God, we believe for it

From the impossible

We'll see a miracle

God, we believe

God, we believe for it

If the stars

were made to worship

so will I

If mountains

bow in reverence

so will I

If the oceans

roar Your greatness

so will I

For everything exists

to lift You high,

so will I

“The more lowly your service to others, the greater you are. To be the greatest, be a servant. But those who think themselves great shall be disappointed and humbled; and those who humble themselves shall be exalted.”

— Jesus, Matthew 23:11-12
