  Rejection One of the most painful human experiences is that of rejection. If you are feeling the sting of rejection and are thinking that no one understands, know that Jesus does.  John 1:11 tells us that He came to His own country and His own people did not receive Him.  On the night before His crucifixion, when He was arrested, His friends all ran away and left Him (Matthew 26:56). So let the one who has been there hold and comfort you and He will give you the assurance that when you open your eyes everything will be all right.  You will be assured that on the other side of the door acceptance is waiting.                                                                                  Sim ply Put: There is acceptance after rejection.

  Money Have you ever heard the term " Money  is the root of all evil?" I never liked that statement. Then I discovered 1 Timothy 6:10 which says: The "love" of money is the root of all evil. Now that made more sense to me. Just as we enjoy giving good things to our children, Psalm 103:13 tells us that our Heavenly Father wants to bless us.  As we hope that our children will love us above material possessions, so God expects the same from His children. Just as we like to hear a thank you now and then I'm sure God does too. I love and believe God's promise that if we put Him first, everything else will fall into place (Luke 12:31).                                                     Simply Put:

Special Delivery                                                                               I always liked this well - known picture of Jesus standing in the garden knocking on a door.  I never noticed until it was pointed out to me that there was no handle on the outside of the door.  The person who brought this to my attention explained that the handle was on the inside.  We have to open the door and invite Jesus to come in. Listen, I stand at the door and knock; If anyone hears my voice and opens the door, I will come into his house and eat with him, and he will eat with me (Revelation 3:20).  Simply Put: The choice is ours.          

Loved You are loved unconditionally. Yesterday, today and always. God loves you so much and there is nothing you can ever do or say that will change that.  So if you are thinking that you are unworthy of or not loved you can get rid of that lie right now and replace it with the truth.  God is with you always. You are the apple of His eye. When my childhood friend Diane passed away, my granddaughter Michelle, who has Down Syndrome, drew the following picture for me.  Michelle knows that nothing can ever separate us from the love of God, not even death.                                                                                                                         ...
