Living….Loving….Longing….for God

A few things beat the feeling of receiving a gift, usually the more expensive the better. However, without releasing it sometimes there are many precious gifts in every day events. It is not always necessarily to buy gifts.

Gift of God

My Grandchildren; precious gifts from God

Precious everyday gifts can be:

- A hug for your teenage son
- A compliment for an unknown person
- Smiling at someone looking tired and depressed.
- Maybe the greatest gift is to give a little undivided attention to your family, the elderly or the sick
- A call to a friend you haven’t heard from in a long time

Then there are the precious gifts we received from our Heavenly Father. The New International Version translates James 1:17 as follows

“Every good and perfect gift is from above, coming down from the Father of the heavenly lights, who does not change like shifting shadows.”

It is this most precious gift of God, justification, which we receive through Jesus Christ, our Savior.

The Gift Of God… Justification

There is only one-way to be justified; that is, not to be found guilty… convicted but not condemned.

I am justified….

By Faith in Jesus
By Believing Jesus died on the cross for my sins
By Jesus taking my guilt to be His; allowing God to see me perfect and unblemished.
Freely by God’s grace

I’m so privilege o God. You saved my soul, You made me whole.
