“REFLECTIONS OF YOUR FAITH”

Saints, Some people will only see Christ through the reflections of your Faith. So in the darkest times our lights MUST shine the brightest to guide others to “The True Light” of eternal life. ~M. Ford

“But you, beloved, building yourselves up in your most holy faith and praying in the Holy Spirit, keep yourselves in the love of God, waiting for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ that leads to eternal life.” (‭Jude‬ ‭1:20-21‬).

“THE GIFT”

Saints, GOD has given you TODAY, not tomorrow. So, unwrap the gift of TODAY wisely, for you shall never pass this way again. ~M. Ford

“See, I set before you today life and prosperity, death and destruction. For I command you today to love the Lord your God, to walk in obedience to him, and to keep his commands, decrees and laws; then you will live and increase, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land you are entering to possess.” (Deuteronomy‬ ‭30:15-16‬)

“LET PRAISE RING!”

“Make a joyful shout to the LORD, all you lands! Serve the LORD with gladness; Come before His presence with singing. Know that the LORD, He is God; It is He who has made us, and not we ourselves; We are His people and the sheep of His pasture. Enter into His gates with thanksgiving, And into His courts with praise. Be thankful to Him, and bless His name. For the LORD is good; His mercy is everlasting, And His truth endures to all generations.”   (Psalms 100:1-5)

“A HEART OF THANKFULNESS”

Saints, unforgiveness waters down the witness of the believer. Hate hardens the Heart more than it hurts the hated. But, If your heart is filled and overflowing with Thanksgiving, you have no room for unforgiveness or hatred.  Being thankful is not limited to just one day of the year, but it is a way of life that results from having an attitude of gratitude.  Thankfulness opens doors to bountiful blessings…Be Thankful! ~M. Ford 

“Oh, give thanks to the Lord , for He is good! For His mercy endures forever.” (I Chronicles 16:34)
