Monday June 6

Are you saved?  Are you a Christian, a person who accepts Jesus Christ as your Savior, your Redeemer, Lord and God?  If not, what are you waiting for?  It's the easiest thing to do and the hardest thing to live up to!  
Just confess that Jesus is the Son of God, that He died for your sins and ask Jesus to forgive your sins and make you one of His, one of God's children.  That's it, confess with your mouth that Jesus is the Christ and you will be saved!
Now you are a child of God, one of His chosen ones, and nothing else is more important than that!


Todays meditation is from F.B.Meyer:

HOW TO MEET DISCOURAGEMENTS
"Our light affliction, which is but for a moment, worketh for us a far more exceeding and eternal weight of glory; while we look not at the things which are seen, but at the things which are not seen.'-- 2Co_4:17-18.

NOTICE THE marvellous antithesis of this chapter: light and darkness; life and death; pressure, perplexity, pursuit, and persecution; but side by side, victory, elastic hope, and the brightness of Christian faith. The decay of the outward man and the renewal of the inward; the light affliction and the weight of glory; the brief moment of earth's pilgrimage contrasted with the eternity of reality and bliss.
It is very important that we should not miss the mighty blessing which is within the reach of every troubled soul. Of course it is quite possible to sit down before troubles and afflictions, hopeless and despairing, confessing that we are over-powered and defeated; it is also possible to be hard and stoical, bearing adversity because we cannot help or avoid it, bur the highest Christian way is to be thankful that the earthen vessel is breaking if only the torch will shine out; to be content that the dying of Jesus should be borne about in our mortal body, if only His life will thereby become manifest.
When through the deep waters I call thee to go, The rivers of grief shall not thee overflow; For I will be with thee in trouble to bless; And sanctify to thee thy deepest distress.

PRAYER
Fix my heart, O Lord, on Thyself, that amid the changes and chances of this mortal life I may be kept steadfast and unmoveable and ever abounding in Thy work. AMEN.

Now you have it all.  No, not wealth or all that, you have God's love and His promises.  No matter what happens, God will love you and care for you!

Have a blessed day in God's love.
