God and Country: “In God we Trust” “One Nation under God” - These words always stick in my mind. He is Risen. To give ones life for another is amazing. To give ones life for mankind is a blessing. By giving our hearts to Jesus makes us ‘Children of God’. The Easter celebration on April 17th reminds us that with His crucifixion, we now have Hope and can have Eternal Life.
As a rider of the wind, I used to say it’s not the destination but the journey. Now at this chapter of my life the words and feelings have changed. Now it is the destination (Eternity with our Lord and loved ones). This life is a journey. It’s like we are going through a desert. A desert of aging, health issues, Family, relationships, financial challenges….and the list goes on. We all have the gift of following a GPS belief that will get you where you are going. The GPS is: God Positioning System.
Remember, if you need prayer or know someone that I can pray for, just call me. In closing a passage from MARK 8: 34-38 The Way of the Cross
34 Then he called the crowd to him along with his disciples and said: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross and follow me. 35 For whoever wants to save their life[a] will lose it, but whoever loses their life for me and for the gospel will save it. 36 What good is it for someone to gain the whole world, yet forfeit their soul? 37 Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 38 If anyone is ashamed of me and my words in this adulterous and sinful generation, the Son of Man will be ashamed of them when he comes in his Father’s glory with the holy angels.”
