WHAT GOD THINKS OF YOU

Believer in Christ,

God always thinks of you 

as His DEARLY LOVED child.

You are in all ways the object 

of your Father's constant love

and devotion and favor.

Even when you sin, 

His tender heart is open 

and ready to show you His

undying,

unfailing

all-surpassing love.

ALL BECAUSE OF JESUS.

SIN...JUST MANAGED?

Sin has been taken away 

by the finished work of Christ on the Cross. 

It no longer has dominion over us.

Even when we as believers do sin,

we go back to the Gospel

and remember

what Christ has graciously

done on our behalf

to deliver us.

 

SEEING CHRIST AS OUR HUSBAND

Much better than the best earthly husband

is Christ our heavenly Husband

who CHERISHES us.

He withholds nothing of His graces and goodness.

All that belongs to Him is ours

by the blood 

of His covenant

that makes us one with Him.

 

HAVE YOU FOUND THIS PRECIOUS TRUTH?

TRUSTING THE ONE WHO LOVES ME

WAKE UP

 

TRANSFORMING GRACE

There are those who fear 

that grace leads to lawlessness,

but it has quite the opposite effect on us.

The love of God in Christ touches our hearts

and transforms us

like no amount of guilt or fear ever could.

God's grace draws and lifts us upward

into the heart of God

every day of our lives. 

 Romans 2:4

A DIVINE SETUP

The impossible demands God required of us

were fulfilled by our wonderful Savior

in His life and sacrificial death.

The Cross is the dividing line of history, 

and for every believer

the finished work of Christ

brings acceptance from God,

victory over sin, 

peace that passes understanding, 

joy unspeakable

and assurance of His love forevermore. 

It was a divine setup, 

all of grace.

HOPE IS BORN OF SUFFERING

Expect the Lord's goodness in your pain.

A NEW and LIVING hope 

is being birthed in you, 

a hope that will not disappoint.

Romans 5:3-5

LET HIS LIFE FLOW

Believer, if your life is filled 

with endless cycles of trying and failing, 

you may not realize it but

you are living under the Old Covenant law.

Learn of the New Covenant of grace

that God has made with us, 

based on the finished work of Christ.

 And be free and whole and full of joy

and fruitful in Him.

THE ONE THING WE CAN'T MISS

Don't miss the GOOD news of the Gospel.

Because God has already MADE us holy 

through the finished work of Christ, 

we are free to LIVE holy.

LOVE DIVINE AND SO PERSONAL

Oh the joy of being chosen,

beloved by God,

and His very own.

SOMETIMES...AND ALWAYS

Walking in the Spirit sometimes looks like this.

But it's always about trusting Christ 

every moment.

I long to trust Him more.

WHOSE PERFORMANCE?

I love this quote by Tullian Tchividjian,  

grandson of Billy Graham.

It reflects a good understanding of 

the Gospel of grace.

OUT FROM THE OLD INTO THE NEW

We fall back under the Law so easily

and without realizing it.

Self-focus is often a telltale sign of this, 

an "am-I-measuring up?" mentality.

 Ah, but the purpose of the Law

is to bring us to CHRIST,

who is the substance and the fulfillment.

What joy and freedom when He is our one focus.
