PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD

 

PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD

I think many of us SUFFER=

From the disease of LONELINESS=

Especially those of us

Who are getting older

And LIVE ALONE

And especially during

This time of Corona virus=

When we don't see others

As often as we USED TO

Years ago ago=those with leprosy

Must have felt LONELY=

Having been cast out

By society=with no one

To CARE for them

“And one of them-

Realizing he had been HEALED

Returned=glorifying God

In a loud voice=

And he fell

At the feet of Jesus

And thanked him=

He was a SAMARITAN” Luke 17:15-16

Each one of us=

LONELY or not

And no matter

IF we have an illness=or not

Are PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD=

We belong

To God the Father

We belong to=

Jesus Christ=

We belong to

The SPIRIT OF GOD

We are-

PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD

“They are

More PRECIOUS than gold-

Than much pure gold

They are

Sweeter than honey

Than honey

From the honeycomb” Psalm 19:10

“For wisdom is MORE PRECIOUS

Than rubies

And nothing you desire

Can compare with her” Proverbs 8:11

“So this is

What the Sovereign Lord says=

'See I lay a stone

In Zion=a tested stone

A PRECIOUS CORNERSTONE

For a sure foundation

The one who

Relies on it

Will never be

Stricken with panic'” Isaiah 28:16

Loneliness stems from

NEGATIVE THOUGHTS=

Of NOT being accepted by others

WHEN you don't feel

Accepted by anyone=

When you don't feel

Like a PRECIOUS

CHILD OF GOD

LONELINESS can happen

To anyone=

Jesus saw the lepers=

Jesus sees us

As PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD=

As precious children

Of his Father

We are=SPECIAL to him

“For you know

That it was not

With perishable things

Such as silver

Or gold

That you were redeemed

From the empty way of life

Handed down to you

From your ancestors

But with

The PRECIOUS BLOOD of Christ=

A lamb=

Without blemish or defect” 1 Peter 1:18-19

We need to LOOK

At each other

Like Jesus looks at us

We need to REALIZE

That we are beautifully

And wonderfully made=IN GOD'S LOVE

We need to realize

We are all

PRECIOUS CHILDREN OF GOD

Each and every one of us

In the name of Jesus OUR LORD
