GOD LOVES YOU!   


 "For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, 

that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, 

but have everlasting life. 


For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world;

 but that the world through him might be saved."

1 Corinthians 13, New King James Version (NKJV)

The Greatest Gift

13 Though I speak with the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I have become sounding brass or a clanging cymbal. And though I have the gift of prophecy, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and though I have all faith, so that I could remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. And though I bestow all my goods to feed the poor, and though I give my body to be burned,[a] but have not love, it profits me nothing.

Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked, thinks no evil;does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

Love never fails. But whether there are prophecies, they will fail; whether there are tongues, they will cease; whether there is knowledge, it will vanish away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part. 10 But when that which is perfect has come, then that which is in part will be done away.

11 When I was a child, I spoke as a child, I understood as a child, I thought as a child; but when I became a man, I put away childish things. 12 For now we see in a mirror, dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part, but then I shall know just as I also am known.

13 And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

22 But the fruit of the Spirit is love, joy, peace,

longsuffering, gentleness, goodness, faith,

23 Meekness, temperance: 

against such there is no law.

Galatians 5:22-23, KJV


  

Jesus said:

1 Let not your heart be troubled: ye believe in God, believe also in me.

In my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you.

And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also.

4 And whither I go ye know, and the way ye know.

Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way?

6 JESUS saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. (John 14:1-6, KJV.) 


 

 

But Jesus quickly spoke to them,
"Have courage! It is I. Do not be afraid."
Matthew 14:27

 


Matthew 11:28-30, King James Version (KJV)

28 Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest.

29 Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls.

30 For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.


 


Matthew 6:9-13, King James Version (KJV)

9 After this manner therefore pray ye: Our Father which art in heaven, Hallowed be thy name.

10 Thy kingdom come, Thy will be done in earth, as it is in heaven.

11 Give us this day our daily bread.

12 And forgive us our debts, as we forgive our debtors.

13 And lead us not into temptation, but deliver us from evil: For thine is the kingdom, and the power, and the glory, for ever. Amen.





John 14:12-17, New King James Version

The Answered Prayer
12 “Most assuredly, I say to you, he who believes in Me, the works that I do he will do also; and greater works than these he will do, because I go to My Father. 13 And whatever you ask in My name, that I will do, that the Father may be glorified in the Son. 14 If you [a]ask anything in My name, I will do it.

Jesus Promises Another Helper
15 “If you love Me, [b]keep My commandments. 16 And I will pray the Father, and He will give you another [c]Helper, that He may abide with you forever— 17 the Spirit of truth, whom the world cannot receive, because it neither sees Him nor knows Him; but you know Him, for He dwells with you and will be in you.

WHAT A WORLD WE WOULD HAVE

IF PEOPLE LOVE, OBEY AND TRUST GOD...

Please hear what God says:


Exodus 20:1-17

King James Version (KJV)

20 And God spake all these words, saying,

I am the Lord thy God, which have brought thee out of the land of Egypt, out of the house of bondage.

Thou shalt have no other gods before me.

Thou shalt not make unto thee any graven image, or any likeness of any thing that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.

Thou shalt not bow down thyself to them, nor serve them: for I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation of them that hate me;

And shewing mercy unto thousands of them that love me, and keep my commandments.

Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain; for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that taketh his name in vain.

Remember the sabbath day, to keep it holy.

Six days shalt thou labour, and do all thy work:

10 But the seventh day is the sabbath of the Lord thy God: in it thou shalt not do any work, thou, nor thy son, nor thy daughter, thy manservant, nor thy maidservant, nor thy cattle, nor thy stranger that is within thy gates:

11 For in six days the Lord made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that in them is, and rested the seventh day: wherefore the Lord blessed the sabbath day, and hallowed it.

12 Honour thy father and thy mother: that thy days may be long upon the land which the Lord thy God giveth thee.

13 Thou shalt not kill.

14 Thou shalt not commit adultery.

15 Thou shalt not steal.

16 Thou shalt not bear false witness against thy neighbour.

17 Thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's house, thou shalt not covet thy neighbour's wife, nor his manservant, nor his maidservant, nor his ox, nor his ass, nor any thing that is thy neighbour's.


 

"If you love Me,

you will keep My commandments."

John 14:15, New American Standard Bible (NASB)







"You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, 

with all your soul, and with all your strength."

Deuteronomy 6:5, NKJV



Psalm 71 New King James Version (NKJV)

God the Rock of Salvation

71 In You, O Lord, I put my trust;
Let me never be put to shame.
Deliver me in Your righteousness, and cause me to escape;
Incline Your ear to me, and save me.
Be my [a]strong refuge,
To which I may resort continually;
You have given the commandment to save me,
For You are my rock and my fortress.

Deliver me, O my God, out of the hand of the wicked,
Out of the hand of the unrighteous and cruel man.
For You are my hope, O Lord God;
You are my trust from my youth.
By You I have been [b]upheld from birth;
You are He who took me out of my mother’s womb.
My praise shall be continually of You.

I have become as a wonder to many,
But You are my strong refuge.
Let my mouth be filled with Your praise
And with Your glory all the day.

Do not cast me off in the time of old age;
Do not forsake me when my strength fails.
10 For my enemies speak against me;
And those who lie in wait for my life take counsel together,
11 Saying, “God has forsaken him;
Pursue and take him, for there is none to deliver him.

12 O God, do not be far from me;
O my God, make haste to help me!
13 Let them be [c]confounded and consumed
Who are adversaries of my life;
Let them be covered with reproach and dishonor
Who seek my hurt.

14 But I will hope continually,
And will praise You yet more and more.
15 My mouth shall tell of Your righteousness
And Your salvation all the day,
For I do not know their limits.
16 I will go in the strength of the Lord God;
I will make mention of Your righteousness, of Yours only.

17 O God, You have taught me from my youth;
And to this day I declare Your wondrous works.
18 Now also when I am old and grayheaded,
O God, do not forsake me,
Until I declare Your strength to this generation,
Your power to everyone who is to come.

19 Also Your righteousness, O God, is [d]very high,
You who have done great things;
O God, who is like You?
20 You, who have shown me great and severe troubles,
Shall revive me again,
And bring me up again from the depths of the earth.
21 You shall increase my greatness,
And comfort me on every side.

22 Also with the lute I will praise You—
And Your faithfulness, O my God!
To You I will sing with the harp,
Holy One of Israel.
23 My lips shall greatly rejoice when I sing to You,
And my soul, which You have redeemed.
24 My tongue also shall talk of Your righteousness all the day long;
For they are confounded,
For they are brought to shame
Who seek my hurt.


 

“Come now, and let us reason together,”Says the Lord,
“Though your sins are like scarlet,
They shall be as white as snow;
Though they are red like crimson,
They shall be as wool.”

Isaiah 1:18,NKJV

"They shall still bear fruit in old age;

They shall be fresh and flourishing,"

Psalm 92:14, New King James Version (NKJV)


Psalm 92:14-15, Amplified Bible

14 

[Growing in grace] they will still thrive and bear fruit and prosper in old age;

They will flourish and be [a]vital and fresh [rich in trust and love and contentment];

15 

[They are living memorials] to declare that the Lord is upright and faithful [to His promises];

He is my rock, and there is no unrighteousness in Him.

Writer Unknown

 It was a busy morning, about 8:30, when an elderly gentleman in his 80′s

 arrived at the hospital to have stitches removed from his thumb. He said he

 was in a hurry as he had an appointment at 9:00 am. The nurse took his vital

 signs and had him take a seat, knowing it would be over an hour before

 someone would be able to see him. I saw him looking at his watch and

 decided, since I was not busy with another patient, I would evaluate his

 wound. On exam, it was well healed, so I talked to one of the doctors, got the

 needed supplies to remove his sutures and redress his wound. While taking

 care of his wound, I asked him if he had another doctor’s appointment this

 morning, as he was in such a hurry. The gentleman told me no, that he needed

 to go to the nursing home to eat breakfast with his wife. I inquired as to her

 health. He told me that she had been there for a while and that she was a

 victim of Alzheimer’s Disease. As we talked, I asked if she would be upset if he

 was a bit late. He replied that she no longer knew who he was, that she had

 not recognized him in five years now. I was surprised, and asked him, ‘And

 you still go every morning, even though she doesn’t know who you are?’ He

 smiled as he patted my hand and said, ‘She doesn’t know me, but I still know

 who she is.’

Joshua 14:6-12 King James Version (KJV)

Then the children of Judah came unto Joshua in Gilgal: and Caleb the son of Jephunneh the Kenezite said unto him, Thou knowest the thing that the Lord said unto Moses the man of God concerning me and thee in Kadeshbarnea.

Forty years old was I when Moses the servant of the Lord sent me from Kadeshbarnea to espy out the land; and I brought him word again as it was in mine heart.

Nevertheless my brethren that went up with me made the heart of the people melt: but I wholly followed the Lord my God.

And Moses sware on that day, saying, Surely the land whereon thy feet have trodden shall be thine inheritance, and thy children's for ever, because thou hast wholly followed the Lord my God.

10 And now, behold, the Lord hath kept me alive, as he said, these forty and five years, even since the Lord spake this word unto Moses, while the children of Israel wandered in the wilderness: and now, lo, I am this day fourscore and five years old.

11 As yet I am as strong this day as I was in the day that Moses sent me: as my strength was then, even so is my strength now, for war, both to go out, and to come in.

12 Now therefore give me this mountain, whereof the Lord spake in that day; for thou heardest in that day how the Anakims were there, and that the cities were great and fenced: if so be the Lord will be with me, then I shall be able to drive them out, as the Lord said.

Why Getting Old Doesn't Mean That Happiness Is Behind You

  Life is funny sometimes. Happiness always seems to be the one thing that we all strive for and yet it’s elusive. The goal posts always seem to move. One day we can be content and the next day there is something else that we need to do to get that happiness.

Some research has found a pretty depressing statistic that most of one’s life’s defining moments happen before the age of 35—meaning that there isn’t much to look forward to in the second part of one’s life.

It doesn’t mean that happiness can’t be found after the age of 35 though. Research has also proven that we are wrong to think that happiness is the main correlation with youth. What research does suggest is that after people go through the most monumental things in life, their overall happiness and overall satisfaction and happiness peak.

The culture that we currently have may instill fear in us with all of the Botox and fighting wrinkles or other signs of growing older, but aging isn’t a bad thing. It’s actually the only path laid out for serenity and for a happy---yes, happy!--lifestyle that reflects the celebration of age.

Legend of the Cranky old man

When an old man died in the geriatric ward of a nursing home in an Australian country town, it was believed that he had nothing left of any value. Later, when the nurses were going through his meagre possessions, They found this poem. Its quality and content so impressed the staff that copies were made and distributed to every nurse in the hospital. 

One nurse took her copy to Melbourne. The old man's sole bequest to posterity has since appeared in the Christmas editions of magazines around the country and appearing in mags for Mental Health. A slide presentation has also been made based on his simple, but eloquent, poem. 

And this old man, with nothing left to give to the world, is now the author of this 'anonymous' poem winging across the Internet. 

Cranky Old Man 

What do you see nurses? . . .. . .What do you see? 
What are you thinking .. . when you're looking at me? 
A cranky old man, . . . . . .not very wise, 
Uncertain of habit .. . . . . . . .. with faraway eyes? 
Who dribbles his food .. . ... . . and makes no reply. 
When you say in a loud voice . .'I do wish you'd try!' 
Who seems not to notice . . .the things that you do. 
And forever is losing . . . . . .. . . A sock or shoe? 
Who, resisting or not . . . ... lets you do as you will, 
With bathing and feeding . . . .The long day to fill? 
Is that what you're thinking?. .Is that what you see? 
Then open your eyes, nurse...you're not looking at me. 
I'll tell you who I am . . . . As I sit here so still, 
As I do at your bidding, .. . . . as I eat at your will. 
I'm a small child of Ten . .with a father and mother, 
Brothers and sisters .. . . .. . who love one another 
A young boy of Sixteen . . . .. with wings on his feet 
Dreaming that soon now . . .. . . a lover he'll meet. 
A groom soon at Twenty . . . ..my heart gives a leap. 
Remembering, the vows .. .. .that I promised to keep. 
At Twenty-Five, now . . . . .I have young of my own. 
Who need me to guide . . . And a secure happy home. 
A man of Thirty . .. . . . . My young now grown fast, 
Bound to each other . . .. With ties that should last. 
At Forty, my young sons .. .have grown and are gone, 
But my woman is beside me . . to see I don't mourn. 
At Fifty, once more, .. ...Babies play 'round my knee, 
Again, we know children . . . . My loved one and me. 
Dark days are upon me . . . . My wife is now dead. 
I look at the future ... . . . . I shudder with dread. 
For my young are all rearing .. . . young of their own. 
And I think of the years . . . And the love that I've known. 
I'm now an old man . . . . . . .. and nature is cruel. 
It's jest to make old age . . . . . . . look like a fool. 
The body, it crumbles .. .. . grace and vigour, depart. 
There is now a stone . . . where I once had a heart. 
But inside this old carcass . A young man still dwells, 
And now and again . . . . . my battered heart swells 
I remember the joys . . . . .. . I remember the pain. 
And I'm loving and living . . . . . . . life over again. 
I think of the years, all too few . . .. gone too fast. 
And accept the stark fact . . . that nothing can last. 
So open your eyes, people .. . . . .. . . open and see. 
Not a cranky old man . 
Look closer . . . . see .. .. . .. .... . ME!! 

Remember this poem when you next meet an older person who you might brush aside without looking at the young soul within. We will all, one day, be there, too!


"Create in me a clean heart, O God; 

and renew a right spirit within me."

Psalm 100, King James Version (KJV)

100 Make a joyful noise unto the Lord, all ye lands.

Serve the Lord with gladness: come before his presence with singing.

Know ye that the Lord he is God: it is he that hath made us, and not we ourselves; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.

Enter into his gates with thanksgiving, and into his courts with praise: be thankful unto him, and bless his name.

For the Lord is good; his mercy is everlasting; and his truth endureth to all generations.

"Therefore we do not become discouraged [spiritless, disappointed, or afraid].

Though our outer self is [progressively] wasting away, yet our inner self is

being [progressively] renewed day by day."

SIGNS OF JESUS' COMING


Matthew 24

King James Version (KJV)

24 And Jesus went out, and departed from the temple: and his disciples came to him for to shew him the buildings of the temple.

And Jesus said unto them, See ye not all these things? verily I say unto you, There shall not be left here one stone upon another, that shall not be thrown down.

And as he sat upon the mount of Olives, the disciples came unto him privately, saying, Tell us, when shall these things be? and what shall be the sign of thy coming, and of the end of the world?

And Jesus answered and said unto them, Take heed that no man deceive you.

For many shall come in my name, saying, I am Christ; and shall deceive many.

And ye shall hear of wars and rumours of wars: see that ye be not troubled: for all these things must come to pass, but the end is not yet.

For nation shall rise against nation, and kingdom against kingdom: and there shall be famines, and pestilences, and earthquakes, in divers places.

All these are the beginning of sorrows.

Then shall they deliver you up to be afflicted, and shall kill you: and ye shall be hated of all nations for my name's sake.

10 And then shall many be offended, and shall betray one another, and shall hate one another.

11 And many false prophets shall rise, and shall deceive many.

12 And because iniquity shall abound, the love of many shall wax cold.

13 But he that shall endure unto the end, the same shall be saved.

14 And this gospel of the kingdom shall be preached in all the world for a witness unto all nations; and then shall the end come.

15 When ye therefore shall see the abomination of desolation, spoken of by Daniel the prophet, stand in the holy place, (whoso readeth, let him understand:)

16 Then let them which be in Judaea flee into the mountains:

17 Let him which is on the housetop not come down to take any thing out of his house:

18 Neither let him which is in the field return back to take his clothes.

19 And woe unto them that are with child, and to them that give suck in those days!

20 But pray ye that your flight be not in the winter, neither on the sabbath day:

21 For then shall be great tribulation, such as was not since the beginning of the world to this time, no, nor ever shall be.

22 And except those days should be shortened, there should no flesh be saved: but for the elect's sake those days shall be shortened.

23 Then if any man shall say unto you, Lo, here is Christ, or there; believe it not.

24 For there shall arise false Christs, and false prophets, and shall shew great signs and wonders; insomuch that, if it were possible, they shall deceive the very elect.

25 Behold, I have told you before.

26 Wherefore if they shall say unto you, Behold, he is in the desert; go not forth: behold, he is in the secret chambers; believe it not.

27 For as the lightning cometh out of the east, and shineth even unto the west; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

28 For wheresoever the carcase is, there will the eagles be gathered together.

29 Immediately after the tribulation of those days shall the sun be darkened, and the moon shall not give her light, and the stars shall fall from heaven, and the powers of the heavens shall be shaken:

30 And then shall appear the sign of the Son of man in heaven: and then shall all the tribes of the earth mourn, and they shall see the Son of man coming in the clouds of heaven with power and great glory.

31 And he shall send his angels with a great sound of a trumpet, and they shall gather together his elect from the four winds, from one end of heaven to the other.

32 Now learn a parable of the fig tree; When his branch is yet tender, and putteth forth leaves, ye know that summer is nigh:

33 So likewise ye, when ye shall see all these things, know that it is near, even at the doors.

34 Verily I say unto you, This generation shall not pass, till all these things be fulfilled.

35 Heaven and earth shall pass away, but my words shall not pass away.

36 But of that day and hour knoweth no man, no, not the angels of heaven, but my Father only.

37 But as the days of Noah were, so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

38 For as in the days that were before the flood they were eating and drinking, marrying and giving in marriage, until the day that Noe entered into the ark,

39 And knew not until the flood came, and took them all away; so shall also the coming of the Son of man be.

40 Then shall two be in the field; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

41 Two women shall be grinding at the mill; the one shall be taken, and the other left.

42 Watch therefore: for ye know not what hour your Lord doth come.

43 But know this, that if the goodman of the house had known in what watch the thief would come, he would have watched, and would not have suffered his house to be broken up.

44 Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

45 Who then is a faithful and wise servant, whom his lord hath made ruler over his household, to give them meat in due season?

46 Blessed is that servant, whom his lord when he cometh shall find so doing.

47 Verily I say unto you, That he shall make him ruler over all his goods.

48 But and if that evil servant shall say in his heart, My lord delayeth his coming;

49 And shall begin to smite his fellowservants, and to eat and drink with the drunken;

50 The lord of that servant shall come in a day when he looketh not for him, and in an hour that he is not aware of,

51 And shall cut him asunder, and appoint him his portion with the hypocrites: there shall be weeping and gnashing of teeth.
