He has risen! He is not here

04/24/2011

When Jesus’ friends came to his tomb early Sunday morning they wanted his body to be there—they planned to honor him in his death.  They didn’t get what they wanted; they got much better.  They wanted him there but he was not there—he had risen from the dead and come back to life.  He was on the move again and that was the best news they could ever hear.

While we were still sinners, Christ died for us

Romans 5:8  “God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.”

Grace

04/10/2011

God’s amazing grace is our supernatural encouragement.  Our salvation is not based on our good works but on God’s infinite generosity.  No matter who we are or what we have done we may receive God’s grace.  So, say yes to God—receive his salvation, enjoy his goodness, be surprised by his gifts and be encouraged by his grace.

Immeasurably More

We often face challenges in life that remind us of our limits in strength, wisdom, resources and health. Those times need not be cause for depair but instead reminders of the active power of God that is at work in our lives, doing more than we can even ask or imagine! Among all the other reasons, God’s powerful provision is cause for us to worship and celebrate God and his active love.
