How God's Love Saves Life

Dear Reader,

Today I will share with you three absolutes and characteristics that establish and demonstrate the qualities of a Man that I know personally, who loves you more than anyone on earth. Yes, even your Parents!

1. He has prayed for you. Prayer is a powerful tool the children of God posses. It provides an open or two way communication that allows hearing God, as well as, talking to God. We all experience, first hand, the trials and tribulations of life. However, Jesus comforts us by advising in Luke 22:31-32 NLT: Simon, Simon, Satan has asked to sift each of you like wheat. 32 But I have prayed for you, Simon, that your faith will not fail." Biblehub As long as we remain strong in faith and trust God, he can conquer all adversities.

2. He forgives you in spite of the all the lies, cheating, and foul language you speak in or out of his presence. In The New Testament, we find that while Jesus was hanging from the cross with nails hammered into his hands and feet, blood pouring from open wounds, and the sarcastic mocking from his enemies; he prayed on their behalf asking God for their forgiveness. "Jesus said, "Father, forgive them, for they don't know what they are doing." And the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice." (Luke 23:34 NLT) BibleHub Dr. Timothy J. Woods, Hopewell Missionary Baptist Church, explained in a Sermon titled: Forgiveness: "Jesus accepted a punishment he did not deserve for sins he did not commit." A perfect summary of his sacrifice.

3. He gave his life on a cross so that we can have eternal life. I am sure the previous points peaked curiosity. Therefore, I will state my purpose in writing to you. And that is to share with you how to receive eternal life. Romans 10:8-11 explains: "In fact, it says, “The message is very close at hand; it is on your lips and in your heart.” And that message is the very message about faith that we preach: If you openly declare that Jesus is Lord and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is by believing in your heart that you are made right with God, and it is by openly declaring your faith that you are saved. As the Scriptures tell us, “Anyone who trusts in him will never be disgraced.” BibleHub Simple! Now you know, and, you too can receive salvation. Jesus is loving, forgiving, a provider, and a protector. He cares for you.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

These powerful lyrics remind us how much good is inside each of us and that sometimes we are too blinded by our imperfections to see the other side of the coin, to see all of that good.

Every Girl Needs To Listen To 'She Used To Be Mine' By Sara Bareilles

The song was sent to me late in the middle of the night. I was still awake enough to plug in my headphones and listen to it immediately. I always did this when my best friend sent me songs, never wasting a moment. She had sent a message with this one too, telling me it reminded her so much of both of us and what we have each been through in the past couple of months.

What's your sign? It's one of the first questions some of us are asked when approached by someone in a bar, at a party or even when having lunch with some of our friends. Astrology, for centuries, has been one of the largest phenomenons out there. There's a reason why many magazines and newspapers have a horoscope page, and there's also a reason why almost every bookstore or library has a section dedicated completely to astrology. Many of us could just be curious about why some of us act differently than others and whom we will get along with best, and others may just want to see if their sign does, in fact, match their personality.

Being a good person does not depend on your religion or status in life, your race or skin color, political views or culture. It depends on how good you treat others.

We are all born to do something great. Whether that be to grow up and become a doctor and save the lives of thousands of people, run a marathon, win the Noble Peace Prize, or be the greatest mother or father for your own future children one day. Regardless, we are all born with a purpose. But in between birth and death lies a path that life paves for us; a path that we must fill with something that gives our lives meaning.
