Welcome family and friends,

Forgiveness. Corrie Ten Boom put it this way...it unlocks the door of resentment and the handcuffs of hatred. It breaks the chain of bitterness and the shackles of selfishness. The forgiveness of Jesus not only takes away our sins, it makes them as if they had never been.

Are you held back from forgiveness by what others have said or done to you? This is a sad case of pride and delusion. Selfishness and bitterness keep you in the dark. Like a tiny plant stuck tight between a rock and a hard place. No moisture, light or the joy of blooming with your face up to the sky.

There is hope.

Jesus came to give us life, if only we call on His name. To be forgiven, cost Him blood, sweat and tears for you and I. We know He rose again from the dead to live forever...then why have so many held onto their chains with a crushing grip? Why not become like a small child raising hands up and asking mom or dad for what he wants?

You have your reasons. I had mine too. Now I know differently. And, it isn't worth the pain and separation from pure Love simply because some experience may be to blame. In the end, we are the ones to blame. 

If the only thing I knew about Father God was found on a little slip of paper reading..."I know the plans I have for you" declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future." Jeremiah 29:11. Would you hold fast to that? 

Do you want to know those good plans for you today? Oh, there is so much more! Will you believe the Father hears you when you cry? Will you believe He only has good for you? Do you want to take the next step to get closer to Him?

There is Good News! Find a Bible and read the Gospel of John. It won't take as long as you think. See the plan of God to save you from the darkness you are engaged in. You can rely on Him, trust Him and cling to Him. Believe. 

I don't know your situation, where you live or come from. I don't know the hidden secrets of your heart. He does. In John 14 Jesus said, "Do not let your hearts be troubled." Bring your troubles to the Cross and find mercy for your soul. He said, " I am the Way and the Truth and the Life; no one comes to the Father except by Me."

Jesus gives His Holy Spirit as the Comforter in His name. He will teach you where to step and the right direction to go. "Peace I leave with you. My peace I give to you, not as the world gives do I give to you."

Because God sent His only Son to go to that awful cross and shed His precious blood there for your sins and mine, we must accept  this gift of forgiveness to be free. He raised Jesus from the grave so you and I can be assured of eternity with Him in heaven.

I am not sure I presented this good enough. Please, take time and call on the Father for understanding while reading and searching His Living Word. Enjoy fresh life and walk in newness of Life! Remember, He is able to keep you. 

We give all glory, honor and praise to Jesus forever! In His matchless name be healed and abide in Him, trust Him and joy will be yours, regardless of the circumstances. Give thanks. He is a good, good Father.

Abundance is...as the key turns
