Jesus
took it all-He is Risen! And we did too when we received Him as our Lord
& Savior! Giving us faith, hope and love-the greatest of these is
love. God's love works all the time, with anyone and in every
situation. Before we can give God's love-we have to receive His love.
Many stumble trying to give love they have not yet received-apart from
Him we can do nothing. We started a tradition in our family-a commitment to being cognizant of the
power of love given to us at the cross... every day. This vulnerability keeps us real-we all have weaknesses; acknowledging
them and sharing allows us to accept where we are and focus on
growth instead of perfection. When we can accept where we are...we can
accept where others are. Genuinely allowing us to encourage others to
become what God calls them to be; affirming...apart from Jesus' love we
can do nothing! Celebrate the power of love given to you at the
cross...every day-He is risen & so have you! (Mt 28:6, 1 Cor 13:13,
Mt 22:37-40, Jn 15:5, 2 Cor 12:9)) 3/31/13CIFL-LMM
Shining God's truth across the world (Mt 5:16). When we lay down who we think we should be...we make room to become who God says we can be-His masterpiece to do the good works He planned long ago (Eph 2:10).
