BEING UNITED WITH GOD

BEING UNITED WITH GOD


God wants ALL OF US
To be UNITED with him


He wants us all to be UNITED
In our love of God-and-
In OUR love of Christ


As well as LIVING LIVES
Of FORGIVENESS for those
Who have wronged us
In this life-and in
This world


BE united IN LOVE with
All living creatures




“WHOEVER is not with me
Is against me


And whoever does not
Gather with me-scatters” Luke 11:23


It is NOT easy
To be a GOD FOLLOWER
Not easy
To BE a Christ FOLLOWER


BEING a Christian=being a follower
Of Christ=always
REQUIRES us-to go
The extra mile


GO the extra mile in LOVE-
IN FORGIVENESS-in giving=and in KINDNESS


That is WHAT a true CHRIST FOLLOWER does
That is what a true CHRISTIAN DOES


“If anyone-
FORCES you to go one mile-
Go with them two miles


GIVE to the one
Who asks you
And do not TURN AWAY
From the one
Who wants to borrow from you” Matthew 5:41-42


BE UNITED with God and Christ
Be FOR God and Christ
BE TRUE FOLLOWERS of them


“SURELY your goodness and love
Will follow me
ALL the days
Of my life


And I will dwell
In the HOUSE of the Lord
-FOREVER-” Psalm 23:6


“COME-FOLLOW ME,'
Jesus said,
'And I will send you out
To FISH for people,'


At once-
They left their nets
And FOLLOWED HIM” Matthew 4:19-20


And that is WHY-
We-HIS FOLLOWERS of today
Are to go too


TURN away from sin-
And be UNITED in love-
And in kindness and forgiveness
With CHRIST FOLLOWERS-
Not the worldly beings


We are to be EXAMPLES
To them-we are to be UNITED
In our front


BE UNITED with God and Christ
In love


Jesus tells us=to GATHER with him
Or leave


Dear Lord-we PRAY for the STRENGTH
To ALWAYS be UNITED with you
As you are always with us


Dear Lord=help us to stay
UNITED with you


“MY GOAL
Is that they may be encouraged
in heart


And UNITED IN LOVE


So that
That they may have the FULL riches
Of COMPLETE UNDERSTANDING


In order That they may KNOW the mystery
Of God=namely Christ


In whom are HIDDEN
All the treasures
Of wisdom and understanding” Colossians 2:2-3


Dear Lord-CLOTHE us
With FAITH in you


So that we MAY be ONE
With you in LOVE & MERCY


And ONE-in GOD & JESUS' NAME,
