God blesses those who
are poor and realize their need for Him, for the Kingdom of Heaven is
theirs. Matthew 5:3
A good friend, mentor, and pastor, John Gargis, once told me something that I have not forgotten: “It teaches me so much when I meet someone
that has absolutely nothing showing gratitude!
It teaches me that gratitude is not about your circumstances.” I agree with brother John and the above verse
from Matthew also comes to mind.
You see, if you believe that Jesus died for your sins and
you recognize that only He can forgive you, you can rest assured that you are
going to heaven. There is nothing you
can do and there is no way to earn your way into heaven; it’s God’s free gift
to those who admit their need for Jesus.
Thanks be to God for His never-ending love, mercy, and
grace!
