GOD’S NEWS

“These things have I written unto you that believe on the name of the Son of God; that ye may know that ye have eternal life, and that ye may believe on the name of the Son of God.”

John 5:13 KJV

The newspapers are full of violence and hatred.  The Bible which is God’s news to us is filled with compassion and unconditional love for us.  If we would start our day reading the Bible instead of reading the newspaper, we would have a happier day as we would be reminded once again how much God loves us.

Not only would we have a happier day if we read the Bible when we get up, we would also make our Heavenly Father happy.  If you are a parent, you know how happy it makes you when your children talk to you.  I think many times we forget that God has feelings.  Let’s make God happy and talk to Him.

If God didn’t have feelings and didn’t love us unconditionally, our precious Heavenly Father would never have given His beloved Son to die on the cross for us.  When is the last time you told God that you love Him?  Have you ever told Him that you love Him and thanked Him without asking for something?

Heavenly Father, please forgive us for sometimes forgetting to tell You how much we love You and appreciate all You have done for us.  You are a compassionate loving Father and I love You.  Thank You for adopting me into Your family and for letting me serve Your Son.  In Jesus’ Name, I pray.  Amen.
