Romans 14:7-8 “For none of us liveth to himself, and no man dieth to himself.  For whether we live, we live unto the Lord; and whether we die, we die unto the Lord: whether we live therefore, or die, we are the Lord's.”

For a Christian the question as to something being right or wrong is just the starting point.
 
The overall reality that should govern our lives is that “We are the Lord’s”.

This means the motivation behind all we are or do should be that we belong to Him.
 
This means His will and purposes must govern ours.  

As we move through today let us cultivate the habit of asking ourselves the question, “What would Jesus be pleased with?” 

Let us allow this thought to mold our thinking, direct our choices and dictate our responses to every event of every day!

Romans 8:31-32“What shall we then say to these things? If God be for us, who can be against us? He that spared not his own Son, but delivered him up for us all, how shall he not with him also freely give us all things?

Are you feeling lonely, isolated or as if no one really cares?
Do you feel that you will never get a handle on life or the everyday problems that accompany it?
You’re wrong.
God is here and He cares.
He has promised both His presence and power to supply all your needs.
Today, throw your aching heart into the arms of the God that loves you and will sustain you.
Let us rejoice and rest in the promises of God’s love.
