Hello and Good Morning to you my friends,
Hope you enjoy todays message:
Keep yourselves in the love of God; look forward to the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life. (Jude 1:21 NRSV Bible) Jude reminds us that when we love God, we will experience God's love in a real and powerful way through eternal life in Jesus Christ.
I read once a really neat story about a little girl who was afraid to go to bed. After three or four trips to her parents' bedroom, her father sought to reassure her. "Look, honey," he said. "You are not really alone in your bedroom. God is watching over you. God is everywhere and God is in your bedroom, too." Dad's words did not reassure the little girl. She when back to her room but stopped at the door and said in a loud whisper, "God, if you are in there, please don't say anything. It would scare me to death."
God has many things to tell us and show us. Many of us would probably be scared too if God spoke to us. But if we love God and our neighbors, we will grow in our relationship with God, we will learn many valuable things about life, and we will learn about what is really important.
Dear Jesus, keep me close to God's love, as I work to share that love with others. Amen.

Bless us all each and every minute of the day Lord. Kathy Martin
