Our Salvation

As for me, may I never boast about anything except the cross of our Lord Jesus Christ. Because of that cross, my interest in this world has been crucified, and the world’s interest in me has also died. It doesn’t matter whether we have been circumcised or not. What counts is whether we have been transformed into a new creation. May God’s peace and mercy be upon all who live by this principle; they are the new people of God. Galatians 6:14-16
We have eternal life only because of the sacrifice of Jesus. His death on the cross gives us new life. This is our salvation, may we never forget or take for granted the work of the cross!

Total Reliance

Behold, as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters . . . so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God. Psalm 123:2

This verse is a description of entire reliance upon God
The danger is lest no longer relying on God you ignore the lifting up of your eyes to Him. Only when God brings you to a sudden halt, will you realize how you have been losing out. Whenever there is a leakage, remedy it immediately. Recognize that something has been coming between you and God, and get it readjusted at once.

Look Up

I lift up my eyes to the mountains—
where does my help come from? My help comes from the LORD, the Maker of heaven and earth. Psalm 121:1-2

Joyful

Joyful are people of integrity, who follow the instructions of the Lord. Joyful are those who obey his laws and search for him with all their hearts. They do not compromise with evil, and they walk only in his paths. Psalm 119:1-3

Endurance!

So do not throw away this confident trust in the Lord. Remember the great reward it brings you! Patient endurance is what you need now, so that you will continue to do God’s will. Then you will receive all that he has promised. Hebrews 10:35-36

Living Life

By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have received all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence. 4 And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. 2 Peter 1:3-4

South Africa

We are leaving for South Africa on Nov. 29. Planning to help with abandoned babies in a safe house and assembling Christmas packages for families in need. Please pray for us as we prepare by raising funds and seeking God for wisdom and grace. Through your help and prayers we can accomplish so much for the children in South Africa.
