Remind

It is early in the morning as you sit down with pen and paper. Composing on a computer won’t do. You want these words to flow straight from your heart, personalized with your distinct handwriting. The end of your life is near, and you write knowing that you are expressing your last thoughts. What would you write in that letter? Here is what Peter writes in his final letter.

Jesus called children to his side. He told his listeners, “Let the little children come to me… for to such belongs the kingdom of heaven”.

God really does care for you…He really does.

Let me remind you that God is not wasting your time. Today He is preparing you for tomorrow. Remember that He does His best work in the sheep pens.

Keep talking to Him . . . even with your questions. Keep trusting Him . . . even in your doubts. He loves you! He cares for you! You can trust Him!

Self-counsel leads us to self-directed actions and pushes God out of the picture. When God is out of the picture, we lose direction and focus.  Our thoughts and emotions are easily distracted by our circumstances. 

God was with John as he grew and “became strong in spirit.”
