THE WHOLE PICTURE!
I was blessed
To come from
A FAITH-FILLED FAMILY
And I had=OTHER GREAT TEACHERS
Down through the years
Other FAMILY MEMBERS=other friends=
Priests=ministers=all who taught me=to see
THE WHOLE PICTURE!
And the whole picture is
GOD MADE US!=
God loves us=and we are
TOTALLY DEPENDENT ON GOD
“KNOW that the Lord
Is God=HE MADE US=his we are=
His people
The flock he tends”
Psalm 100:3
But the world
Teaches us=SOMETHING DIFFERENT
It teaches us
That EVERYTHING=depends on us
But the TRUTH IS
We need not=make ourselves
In the image=of the world
But we need
To make ourselves
IN THE IMAGE=of God and Jesus
That is THE WHOLE PICTURE
SEEING THE WHOLE PICTURE!
“What good will it be
For someone=to gain
THE WHOLE WORLD
Yet forfeit their soul?”
Matthew 16:26
“Jesus did many
Other things as well=
If every one of them
Were written down=I suppose
That even=THE WHOLE WORLD
Would not have room
For the books=that would be written”
John 21:25
“For whoever=
KEEPS THE WHOLE LAW=
And yet stumbles
At just one point
Is guilty=of breaking
All of it”
James 2:10
THE CORE of our Christian FAITH
Is love=forgiveness=and kindness
And we are to LIVE
All of it
OVER and over again=EVERY DAY
Of our lives=that is
THE WHOLE PICTURE!
Seeing and living
THE WHOLE PICTURE=in
CHRISTIAN LOVE
SO THIS THANKSGIVING=
As we say=THANK YOU
To God and Jesus
For our lives=and
OUR FAMILY and friends

God loves you
“CREATE in me=
A clean heart=O GOD
And RENEW a steadfast spirit=within me”
Psalm 51:10
