We Love God!

God: "I looked for someone to take a stand for me, and stand in the gap" (Ezekiel 22:30)

What you receive from life will be greatly determined by what you give in life. You’ve got to put something in to get something out.
Rod Rogers

Let us consider what regard we ought to have to our own duty and to the grace of God. Some would separate these things as inconsistent. If holiness be our duty, they would say, there is no room for grace; and if it be the result of grace there is no place for duty. But our duty and God’s grace are nowhere opposed in the matter of sanctification; for one absolutely supposes the other. We cannot perform our duty without the grace of God; nor does God give His grace for any other purpose than that we may perform our duty!

    Dear friends,

    I know with all my heart that God loves me, and God loves you.
    My God is waiting for me, and each one of us, to respond to Him,
    as we face each struggle. God knows that life is not easy. Hey!
    He REALLY knows that life is not easy. God Himself, though He
    created us, came to live here Himself, so that He could be even
    nearer to us, and so that He would know every hurt that we know.
    Then HE overcame all of these things for US.

    I have the hope and joy that I am loved by the Lord Himself. How
    about you? Do you know that love? Trust God, not to eliminate
    your hardships, but to be with you as you patiently endure all things.
    He is faithful, and He will do it!

    God bless you!
    Brother Brian
