I may not have a good social status, or have the newest electronic craze, or have nice clothes and a fancy car but what I do have is far better than any of those worldly things. What I have is LOVE that never fails. What I have is STRENGTH when I am weak. What I have is abundant GRACE and MERCY. What I have is PROVISION when I’m needy. What I have is FORGIVENESS by the blood of Christ. What I have is COMFORT in affliction. What I have is FREEDOM from sin. These are the truths I want to rest in. These are the truths I want to set my whole life around. These are the truths I want every ear to hear. It is in all of these things that God has blessed me with…I have found everything.
“At one time we too were foolish, disobedient, deceived and enslaved by all kinds of passions and pleasures. We lived in malice and envy, being hated and hating one another. But when the kindness and love of God our Savior appeared, he saved us, not because of righteous things we had done, but because of his mercy. He saved us through the washing of rebirth and renewal by the Holy Spirit, whom he poured out on us generously through Jesus Christ our Savior, so that, having been justified by his grace, we might become heirs having the hope of eternal life.” Titus 3:3-7
