I don't think to many of us spend enough time looking to see who God is, let alone what He thinks of us. But I have found that you don't have to look to long or to far into His word to see exactly how He feels. So I've found just a few scriptures that speak very clear and say it all.
I expect most of you can agree that none of us would die and give up our lives for some sinner who deserved death, yet that is exactly what Jesus did.
God was also involved in it all, He willingly gave His own son who had never done anything wrong for a bunch of people who seem to do little else.
And Jesus died for all of us while everyone was still in their sin. He knew full well the sins we had committed and would commit even afterward and still did it.
It takes a love that only God has to do that, and we need to start to really appreciate it. I'm afraid even we who know it, who have received Jesus as savior and had our sins forgiven don't really appreciate what He has done for us. And even in that, the Lord still loves us. That is some love !
For any of you who haven't yet put your faith and trust in that, and received Jesus as your savior and Lord, let me tell you how easy God made it.
So easy that even little children can get right with God, receive Jesus and have their sins forgiven.
All he asks from us is that we confess (admit) that we are sinners, that we don't do everything right, in fact that we sin. That we humble ourselves before him, because though He does truly love us, He is God, and we must bow our hearts to that.
And that we ask Him to come into our hearts and lives, forgive us for all the sins and help us. And all of that is for our benefit, not His.
If you've never prayed to God before let me give you a suggested prayer, it's not so much the words a person prays, but it is the sincerity of your heart.
Jesus said " Anyone who comes to me I will in no way turn away ". If you from and honest heart, will pray to Him and ask Him, He promises that He will do it.
He will forgive you of all your past sins no matter what they were, He will wash them all away and receive you as His own . So pray something like this;
When we pray from an honest, humble heart He hears us and awnsers, so we know by faith it has been done, He has forgiven you and receives you and will help and lead you.
E-mail us if you prayed this and we will pray for you as you go on from here. We will give you all the help we can.
Jesus, I come to you admitting that I am a sinner. I know I've done wrong and hurt you, and for that I am truly sorry.
Please forgive me and wash me clean from all of my sins and from my past. Jesus I ask you to come into my heart and into my life and help me to live the life you want me to live. I receive you as my Lord and Savior today and will trust you to help me and lead me.
Thank you for saving me from the judgment of my sins and for loving me so much you want me to live with you forever.

Look at these :
John 3:16 " For God so loved the world, that He gave His one and only son that whoever believes in Him will not perish, but have everlasting life. For God did not send His son into the world to condemn the world, but to save the world through Him."
Romans 5:8 : But God demonstrated His love in this: while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.

God's Gift to you, Open It!
My new book "Thieves in the Kingdom" has just been released and is available for purchase here on our website and from my publisher Authorhouse. You can also get it from all the online book sellers and at your local book store.
I believe you would enjoy it and be helpedby it. It is a good book, a very easy read, and would make a great gift for anyone. Thieves in the Kingdom is a book everyone needs to read, especially in the times we are living in now.
Thieves in the Kingdom reveals much about our lives and our world, about what is wrong and why, and about what is to come. Much is coming, and we dare not to be ignorant of it. We cannot be so caught up in our daily lives that we do not prepare for the future.
This is especially true living in the fast-paced generation and society we live in today. Even with world news constantly informing us and information at every fingertip, we still need to focus on the priorities of our lives.
We need to see this world as it really is, and to see ourselves as we really are, as well as our place in the midst of it all. I know that can seem very challenging sometimes, but we must persevere anyway. We must not ignore the most precious part of our lives, as most people are prone to do. The riches, the rewards, and the outcome we are supposed to get out of life are just too great, too important, and way too much for us to miss out on.
Fiction, fantasy, and imagination are sometimes very good and can make for great books and movies, but when the real deal is bolder, broader, and more revealing than any story someone can come up with, we ought to check it out and be willing to see it for what it really is.
Once you have given your heart and life to the Lord, you not only belong to Him and are a real son or daughter of His and of His kingdom, but you are also a soldier in His army . He tells us over and over again to realize that we have an enemy (satan) and that we must be wise and be prepared for the fight and the battles of life that will come. Ephesians 6 13-18 tells us the first things to do about it.
It is all pretty simple if we remember them and do them.
1st - We must truly be saved to have the right, the power, and the abiltiy to fight with the Lord and stand victorious.
2nd - We must do what Ephesians says and put on all of our armor and walk in it continuosly ready to wage war as needed. A good soldier never takes off his armor or puts down his weapon in the midst of a war and battle.
3rd - Study to show yourself approved, a workman that needs not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth. 2 Timothy 2:15
4th - Pray! Talk to the Lord all the time. Yes He is God, but He is also your best friend. Talk to Him as you would someone like that as you can tell Him anything, just remember He is God, and not to take Him for granted or lightly. Pray for your needs, and for your wants, if they are in agreement with His word, and will, and for others He will hear them. He is concerned with all of it and always hears you and will respond accordingly.
5th - Keep short accounts with God. When you mess up and outright sin, go to Him right away and take care of it. Remember if He loved you that much to die for you and save you when you were an unbeliever full of sin, and when you didn't belong to Him, why would He do anyless for you now. He doesn't love you any less now that you are saved and loves to forgive you and draw you close to Him keeping you safe! Don't run from God, run to Him always.

Happy New year to all of you!

Please send us your prayer requests, we will read everyone of them and prayer in faith for them!
A friend sent me this and I thought it was really good and something well worth our sharing.
There are many reasons God saves you:
To bring glory to Himself,
To appease His justice,
To demonstrate His sovereignty,
But one of the sweetest reasons God saves you is because He is fond of you. He likes having you around. He thinks you’re the best thing to come down the pike in quite a while....
If God had a refrigerator, your picture would be on it. If He had a wallet, your photo would be in it. He sends you flowers every spring and a sunrise every morning.
Whenever you want to talk, He'll listen, where ever you are He will always be. The fact is that He can live anywhere in the universe, but He chose to live in your heart...
