THE TRUE LIFE!

THE TRUE LIFE!


Are you living
A truly SUCCESSFUL LIFE
And how would you
Define success?


Here is a QUESTION
For you today?


“What PROFIT is there
For one to GAIN
The whole world


Yet LOSE or forfeit himself?” Luke 9:25


I used to be a stockbroker=
A financial planner=where it was
EASY to measure profits
And losses


But in this life=
It is NOT SO EASY


Gaining the WHOLE world
Spells “S-U-C-C-E-S-S-”=right


Wrong=the ONLY REAL
Successful life is the life
INTERTWINED with God and JESUS


THE TRUE LIFE


“Your righteousness
Is everlasting=and your law
IS TRUE” Psalm 119:142


“My mouth
Speaks what is TRUE


For my lips
Detest wickedness” Proverbs 8:7


“Now this
Is eternal life
That they know you


The only TRUE GOD
And Jesus Christ=
Whom you have sent” John 17:3


It is EASY
To get caught up
In ourselves


To get caught up
In our small world


We STOP noticing anything
But ourselves


We FAIL to notice
That our opinions
Need a facelift


Or that we no longer
Have the COMPASSION
We once had for others


We become intolerant and
Refuse to LISTEN to others=
LOVING GOD and LOVING OTHERS
Cease to become the REASON
For our lives


We MUST LOVE GOD=
We must love others
WE must live
THIS TRUE LIFE


“Jesus replied=
'LOVE the Lord your God
With all your heart
And with
ALL your mind


This is the first
And GREATEST commandment


And the second is like it
LOVE YOUR NEIGHBOR
As yourself


ALL the Law
And prophets
HANG ON
These two commandments” Matthew 22:37-40


Stop living your life
On your own selfish whims
And your profit/loss statement


LIVE THE TRUE LIFE!


See life=see SUNLIGHT=
See the birds SINGING
In the trees=see the
EYES of a child


LIVE by GOD'S LAWS and
TRUE LIFE


In Jesus name and in the NAME of
Our ALL LOVING FATHER
