OPEN ARMS

"Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest."

Matthew 11:28
King James Version

Jesus does not want us to be unhappy and have so many problems in our life. We read in the Bible. "The thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy: I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly (John 10:10). Jesus is waiting for us to come to Him with His arms open wide. We can't make it through this world without Jesus. Life is too hard and there are too many dangers and evil in this world.

How it must hurt our Heavenly Father and break His heart to see the way we live and some of the things we say and do. One day God looked down from Heaven and saw the mess the world was in and He loves us so much He sent His beloved Son to die on the cross and pay the penalty for our sins so we can have our sins forgiven and go to Heaven. We have a compassionate loving Heavenly Father Who loves us unconditionally.

Heavenly Father, thank You for loving us unconditionally and for giving Your Son to die on the cross for our sins. I love You, Heavenly Father. I love You, Jesus. I love You, Holy Spirit. I pray for all who are lonely, discouraged, hurting and who feel like giving up. Please comfort and encourage them as You have done for me so many times. Thank You for loving us and for caring. In Jesus' Name, I pray. Amen.
