GROWTH IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS

GROWTH IN OUR RELATIONSHIP WITH JESUS


We all have DIFFERENT
Beginning points=and different
Ending points


But ONE of our goals
In life=should be
To GROW a little bit
CLOSER to God=a little bit
CLOSER TO Jesus


MOVING along the PATH
To find God


“Indeed=the SON of God
Was revealed
To destroy
The WORKS of the devil” 1 John 3:8


The devil=the PROBLEMS that
We run into in life
Seem like they COME
To WEAKEN our path to God


But that is where
We FIND OUR FAITH
That is where
We find our CORNERSTONE=Jesus
That is HOW we move
ALONG the path


By pulling through the TOUGH TIMES
With God and Jesus
At our side=even
LEADING THE WAY


BUILDING the path way to God


“You make known to me
The PATH of life
You will fill me with joy


In your presence
With eternal pleasures
At your right hand” Psalm 16:11


“The way of the sluggard
Is blocked with thorns


Bur the PATH of
The upright
Is a highway” Proverbs 15:19


WORKING through
The TRIALS of life
GROWING in our relationship
With Jesus our Lord


WHAT is it that
Is preventing us
From MOVING CLOSER
To the LORD?


Maybe we think that Jesus
Will ASK the
IMPOSSIBLE of us


Maybe we have
Become DISCOURAGED
In prayer


Or maybe we have
BECOME ANGRY at God
For past disappointments


Keep om fighting
Keep on PRAYING
Keep on building


Your RELATIONSHIP
With the Lord


Keep on growing
Keep getting CLOSER
With Jesus


“One who has
Unreliable friends
Soon comes to ruin


But there is a FRIEND
Who sticks CLOSER
Than a brother” Proverbs 18:24


And that FRIEND=that BROTHER
Is Jesus
He helps us KEEP MOVING
ALONG the right path


Keep on GROWING in the Lord=and
Keep your HEART OPEN
To his love and ENCOURAGEMENT


In Jesus' name and in the name of OUR LOVING/EVERLASTING FATHER
