Faith





Give God your Treasures in Faith 
Giving is often considered an act of love. God gave us His Only Son as the truest expression of His love for mankind. God gave us life, salvation, hope and continues to bless us with His wisdom, grace and strength for each new day that we face.
What can we give as an expression of our love for God? We can give Him what we treasure as an act of true worship.
We might feel the need to give to family because it’s our responsibility. We sometimes give gifts to friends and acquaintances out of formality. We help the poor because they are in need.
But God is not our responsibility and He certainly lacks nothing. God doesn’t require our gifts, especially not as a formality. He is God; He can well survive without our meager offerings.
It’s important that we choose to give what we treasure to God. Not just what money we have left over after our expenses, tidbits of our talent, or pockets of time when we’re bored. We must give wholeheartedly because our God is worthy of worship.
Giving God your best time, talents and treasures might cost you something, but it will be well worth it. God values your offering and He will bless you above and beyond what you can possibly imagine.
Be blessed and be a blessing!

Good Friday

  Happy Good Friday   This is the day that we remember what Jesus did for us --- enduring beating, mocking, and being crucified.   I imagine his disciples did not consider it to be a “good” Friday at the time. But what makes it GOOD is what happened on Sunday --- when Jesus did the impossible and rose from the dead.    Knowing that you were ransomed from the futile ways inherited from your forefathers, not with perishable things such as silver or gold, but with the precious blood of Christ, like that of a lamb without blemish or spot.  ~ 1 Peter 1:18-19 ESV   One of the best ways of celebrating Jesus and His Resurrection…is through family traditions.    Family traditions can be as simple as attending  ️  church and having lunch or brunch together.    Jesus was a story-teller. I believe he knew the power of a story to capture hearts and bring joy while effectively delivering a specific message. He often used parables to tea...

Why God Wants to Bless You!

  Why God Wants to Bless You!   “For to everyone who has will more be given, and he will have an abundance. But from the one who has not, even what he has will be taken away” (Matthew 25:29, ESV). Do you know that God wants to bless you? He wants you to have abundance, lacking no good thing. But He doesn’t want that for you and me so we can merely enjoy our lives. He wants us to steward our resources so we can be better able to reach out to others and bless them in His name. Jesus said in Matthew 5:16 (ESV),   “…let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father who is in heaven.”   The goal is fruitfulness. The goal is God’s Kingdom. The goal is for God’s blessing to flow through us so we might be a blessing to others, to the glory of His name!
