I opened two gifts this morning. They were my eyes *
Thanks to the blood of Jesus Christ I have a personal relationship with the God who created me and this amazing universe!
I have an inner joy and peace that weathers all storms.
Saying “thank you” to God reminds me of my blessings.
With the Holy Spirit’s guidance I think about things true, noble, right, pure, lovely, admirable, excellent and praise worthy.
Even if you torture me and cut off my head, you can never kill my soul.
Love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness and self-control are the fruit of the Spirit living in me.
Looking for someone to devour, Satan prowls around like a roaring lion but I am safe in the full armor of God.
When I pray I am humbly aware of the power of almighty God at work in my behalf.
I make every effort to add to my faith goodness, to goodness knowledge, to knowledge self-control, to self-control perseverance, to perseverance godliness, to godliness brotherly kindness, and to brotherly kindness love.
Troubles will come in this life but Jesus said He will be with me always, and I believe Him.
Heaven is the place where the lights of home are on for me.
My sins are nailed to the cross. Thank you Jesus for taking my place.
Yes Lord” bubbles up in my heart more and more as I mature as a Christian.
Singing praises to God brightens my days.
Opening and reading my Bible edifies me beyond measure.
Uncompromising faith answers many of my questions.
Life eternal is the gift of God at the end of my earthly sojourn.
