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

Let this verse be a constant reminder for us. Not only during this Easter weekend, but have it be a daily reminder. We are naturally born sinners, and we sin everyday. We sin even when we try not to sin, that is just the way we are. We go against God's word all the time. God could destroy us at any second, but he does not. He does not because he loves us. He loves us so much that he sent his one true son to this earth, Jesus. Jesus came here to be an example for us. He lived a life full of love and grace. Jesus was perfect, he is and was literally the only person ever to live without sin. He had never done wrong. Jesus was crucified. But it was not just an ordinary crucifixion, Jesus was sacrificed. He was sacrificed in order for our sins to be forgiven. This does not only show the love that Jesus showed towards us, but God as well. This was his one only true son, he allowed to be brutally punished and crucified. As we continually sin, we are continually forgiven thanks to the death of Jesus. He is our savior. He is the reason why we live on this earth. He is the reason why we have an eternal life in heaven.

Lord, thank you. Thank you for continually showing us love as we sin on a daily basis. We are not worthy of your love. We are not worthy of living the lives we do. You give us so much and give us so much grace, thank you. Sorry for all we do against you. Amen.

“So then, just as you received Christ Jesus as Lord, continue to live in your lives in him, rooted and built up in him strengthened in the faith as you were taught, and overflowing with thankfulness.” Colossians 2:6-7. We have to be able to let our roots grow. Jesus taught us several times that we have to have a strong foundation (Mt. 7:24-27) and strong roots (Mt. 13:1-23). Jesus is not a one time thing, we cannot go “I believe He is my Lord and Savior” and just walk away. That is not what we are called to do. We are called to be disciples and to preach the Word of God. We are called to love everyone like Jesus did. Jesus did not care who you were or what your past was, he accepted everyone because we are all made in the image of God. We all are natural born sinners, but Jesus died in order for our sins to be forgiven. God’s arm is not too short to save anyone (Isa. 59:1), He has the ability to save everyone. There are people out there with roots, but they are short and weak. They c

“I have told you these things, so that in me you may have peace. In this world you will have trouble. But take heart! I have overcome the world.” John 16:33. This world is a dark place, I said it before and this will not be the last time I put it in a devotional. It is, it was no God’s intentions when he created us and created this world that darkness will take over. But just like everything else God uses it for his advantage. He allows all the bad things that happen in this world and to us to show us his power. He uses it to bring us closer to him. He uses it to show he has something better for us not only not only on this earth, but in heaven. No matter what happens on this earth whether you are the richest person, whether you are the poorest person, if you are the happiest to the saddest, there is nothing compared to the treasures and everything we get in heaven. One of the things God did to show us that he is taking advantage of this dark world for his and our benefit was sending

Daily Devotional: 7/27/2018 - DIFFERENCE MAKER PT. II

"And he climbs on up the hill; On the rock on which he stands; He looks back at the crowd; And he looks down at his hands and he says; I am a difference maker." NEEDTOBREATHE - "Difference Maker" (Pre-Chorus) This is a "science fiction" short story based on my life. A story and mission of a difference maker. Yeah, isn't it amazing how a man can find himself alone? Call into the darkness for an answer that's he ever known; Yeah, isn't it amazing how a God can take a broken man; Yeah let him find a fortune, let him ruin it with his own two hands ? Leaves dance on the trees, fog rises from the distance mountains as the rain cooled the hot summer ground, the porch swing creaks. The wind whispers secrets in my ears. There are over seven billion people in the world and there is not one to be found, it is just my thoughts and me. I can do this all on my own, I do not need anyone. The more people there are the more problems there are f
