MESSAGE THIS MONTH HE GAVE IT ALL

A question to all and this includes us also, what have we gave or given as a believer in Christ.  Are we going about our daily lives just living in the world?  We need to thank about this, are we doing the will of God, are we witnessing to others around us, are we making a difference for God’s Kingdom.

 

Jesus paid the ultimate sacrifice for us all when He died on the cross and then rose on the third day, to take away our sins, to give us our salvations, to give us eternal life.  Please take the time to think about this, today make a difference in someone’s life, call someone to encourage them, shake a friends hand, our smile at someone, it may be the only smile that they have received that day. Maybe tell someone that you love him or her and that God loves you. Pray about this today.  What Have You Gave?
