OUR VERY LIVES=
(Are a GIFT from God)
Do you have
LOTS of stuff? I do
And I haven’t had
The chance
To reorganize recently
Plus my ORGANIZING FRIEND
Has been away
For the past nine months
But the ONE thing I know
Is that the
MOST IMPORTANT thing
That we have=is our
VERY LIFE
And that our lives=
As well as everything else
Are GIFTS FROM GOD!
“You are lacking
In ONE THING
Go-sell what you have
And GIVE to the poor
And you
Will have treasures in heaven
Then come=FOLLOW ME” Mark
10:21
Everything that we have
Is a GIFT FROM GOD=starting with
OUR VERY LIVES
We strive for
A better relationship
With Christ
But sometimes our stuff
Can GET in our way
We must choose how
We are going to SPEND
Our time=our money
And our talent
Hopefully we will
KEEP God number one
“Saul and Jonathan
Were lovely and pleasant
IN THEIR LIVES
And in their death
They were not divided
They were swifter
Than eagles
They were stronger=than lions”
2 Samuel 1:23
“Men that
Have hazarded their LIVES
In the name=of our Lord Jesus Christ”
Acts 15:26
Yes=OUR VERY LIVES
Are GIFTS FROM GOD=it is
Easy to
Take them for granted
We can use our things
For ourselves
To BUILD MATERIAL LIVES
Instead of using them
To LOVE AND SERVE
God and others
The DESIRE to serve God
And serve others=
Is the one thing=that matters
In making the BEST USE
Of our lives
“Perceive the love of God
Because he laid down
HIS LIFE for us
And therefore=we lay down
OUR LIVES=for our brothers”
1 John
3:16
NEVER FORGET
That your life is
A GIFT FROM GOD
Never forget to give
OUR VERY LIVES
Back to God=to USE
For the sake
Of our brothers and
sisters
IN CHRIST!
In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our always GIVING Holy Father
God!
