14.01.2022 6 Things You Can Control.
14.01.2022 Life is so different when we can receive and believe the promises that Jesus has given us.
14.01.2022 Was at Costco yesterday and heard a loud crash and something shattering. Being nosy, I walked towards the sound and saw some people whispering and looking back to the end of the next aisle. When I walked down that aisle, I saw an older lady had hit a shelf and many things had fallen to the ground and broke. She was kneeling on the floor embarrassed, frantically trying to clean up. I felt so bad for her, and everyone was just standing there staring at her. So I went and knelt ...beside her and told her not to worry and started helping her pick up the broken pieces. After about a minute, the store manager came and knelt beside us and said, Leave it, we will clean this up. The lady, totally embarrassed said, I need to pay for all this. The manager smiled, helped her to her feet and said, No maam, we have insurance for this, you do not have to pay anything! If you have read this far, give me another minute. Wherever you are, close your eyes, and imagine God doing the same for you! Imagine the broken pieces of your mistakes or the pieces of your broken heart from all the blows life has thrown at you all over the floor and youre there trying to collect all of the pieces and fix them yourself. Now imagine God comes and kneels right down beside you, smiles and says to you, Leave it all there, We will clean this up for you. He loves you that much and wants to put all of those pieces back together if you will let Him! With Him we have this insurance and its called GRACE! Its free! All you have to do is ask Him to forgive you, help you, and to heal you. Hes faithful, I promise! See more
