When they marry

One of the signs of getting older is when your  Grandchildren start getting married. When this takes place you know that great grandchildren are in your future! I count my self very blessed to be able to be a part of this. God has granted me enough time to see this extension of life. Having another generation seed planted, I know that there is a good chance of seeing this in the future. Some say that getting older is no prize. Everything seems to be warring out! I see getting older as a priceless reward from God. He has granted us the privilege to see our family grow.  Today our oldest grandson is getting married. Our prayer for him is that God will bless him with a long and happy life and that he will have eternal happiness with his Bride to be.

What if ?

What if folks would help when you needed it? What if someone would open the door for you? What if the car in front of you let you have the parking space? What if your neighbor dropped by to see if you needed anything from the store? What if everyone loved their neighbor as them selves?  What if we treated others the way we would like to be treated?

In this day and age the what if's seem like they never happen. Well we can change that! If we are the what if in the whole scheme of things. If one person decides to be that what if , it will have a chain reaction that can spread through the whole world.

Somebody thought that anybody would help! Anybody thought that somebody would help! Guess who ended up helping? Nobody! Don't let your self become a somebody, anybody or a nobody. We all have a job to do for each other. That job is to spread a little kindness to someone. Share something with someone.

Are you Forgiven?

Are you forgiven too! Is Jesus lord of your life? Do you think that you are a good person? How do you measure up to God's standard?
1) Have you ever told a lie? (even a little white lie)
2) Did you ever steal anything? (even a cookie)
3) Have you ever cheated on your mate?
If you have answered yes to any of these simple questions, then by God's standards you need to repent! (ask God to forgive you of your sin). If you ask you will receive His forgiveness.
Keep in mind that the above questions are just a small example of God's measuring stick. It is only through the shed blood of Jesus on the cross that we can obtain God's glorious salvation. Jesus paid the price for us . We broke God's law through sin, Jesus paid the debut for us.
By faith we trust in the salvation that God has offered through Jesus Christ our Lord.
