You don't have to understand

everything about God to experience

His love and salvation; all you have to
do is receive Jesus, God's Son, as
your Savior by asking Him into your
heart.

If you openly declare that Jesus is

Lord and believe in your heart that
God raised him from the dead, you
will be saved. (Romans 10:9, NLT)

Salvation is not a reward. It's

not payment for anything good
you may have done or anything
bad you may have not done. It
is a gift that you don't earn and
can't earn by any kind of works
of your own.
God saved you by his grace
when you believed. And you
cant take credit for this; it is a
gift from God. Salvation is not a
reward for the good things we
have done, so none of us can
boast about it. (Ephesians 2:8-9,
NLT)

When faced with an

obstacle or bad news,
pray for a solution
and imagine the
good that God can
bring to pass even
out of a messy
situation.
All things work
together for good to
them that love God.
(Romans 8:28, KJV)

Just like my body can't survive on

a diet of junk food or an
occasional good meal, my faith
won't survive, much less thrive,
unless I'm faithful to take in good
spiritual food.
Faith comes by hearingthe
Word of God. (Romans 10:17,
WEB)

Every word or action we fling out comes

back some day. Whether good or bad, it
will return to us.
A man reaps what he sows. (Galatians
6:7, NIV)

When we interact with people, God expects us

to respect them as people whom He created
and loves.
Let all that you do be done in love.
(1 Corinthians 16:14, WEB)

We are weak and faulty, but our God is

invincible. We are earthen vessels, yet as we
commit our lives and hearts to Him, He
becomes one with us and can work through
us.
We have this treasure in clay vessels, that the
exceeding greatness of the power may be of
God, and not from ourselves. (2 Corinthians
4:7, WEB)

God wants us to be humble and

dependent on Him, and He also
wants us to be confident in His
power and His ability to use us for
His glory, even when we feel
incapable.

I can do everything through

Christ, who gives me strength.
(Philippians 4:13, NLT)

Trust in GodHe wants to take care

of you and supply your needs.
God will supply every need of yours.
(Philippians 4:19, WEB)

Satisfaction comes
when we learn to thank
God both for what we
have and what we have
not.And that is the
secret of contentment.

I have learned how to

be content with
whatever I have.
(Philippians 4:11, NLT)

Making things right

often starts with you
taking the step to
forgive someone, even
if you feel that the
other person is the one
who should be seeking
forgiveness. Has
someone said or done
something that has hurt
you? Forgive.
Be kind to each other,
tenderhearted,
forgiving one another,
just as God through
Christ has forgiven you.
(Ephesians 4:32, NLT)
