Today I am greeting you with a heart filled with gratitude, and with a desire to grow in the Lord. As an infant or child trusts in their parents for nourishment and provisions in growth, we need to trust our Heavenly Father. He has called all of us, those who have accepted Him, His children!  If we are children, then we have an inheritance of glory after our suffering (Romans 8:17).

Ben Fuller sang about our true identity; and Romans 8:38-39 mentions how permanent God’s love for us is. There is absolutely nothing that negates the Lord’s love. Since He continually cherishes us, we can be assured of His love for us. The Scriptures remind us that perfect love casts out all fear (1 John 4:18)!

If His love for us is unconditional, and we are not living in fear of what ourselves or others are thinking about us, we can have peace as we approach His throne (Colossians 1:21-22; Hebrews 4:16). I just wanted to encourage everyone to continue coming boldly to Christ for mercy. 

Please feel free to comment below to add anything that ministered to you, or if prayer is needed.  May this week be one of experiencing Christ’s mercy.  In this mercy, may we all find the strength to carry on when we are in need.  This morning, our pastor brought up the section in the Bible about the man with leprosy coming to Jesus.  He was bold enough to ask the Lord if He was willing to bring healing to him.  Christ answered in the affirmative.  May we live in the assurance that the Saviour wants the best for us (Romans 8:28)!
