Some Things To Ponder:
The secret of contentment is to let the Lord supply:
Just do your part and put God first and on His word rely.
The Lord has promised to prepare a place above- A home where we will always be with Him and those who love Him. Best of all, it's free! But you have to accept His invitation to attend!
Pilot asked Jesus, "What is truth?" John 8:32 tells us, "You shall know the truth and truth shall make you free,"
Some teach, all roads lead to heaven and it doesn't matter what you believe as long as you're sincere. Jesus said, "I am the way, the truth and the life. No man can come to the father except by Me." John 14:6
When is Jesus coming back again to catch believers away?
We don't know, but when it happens, be certain the whole world will know!
A song writer wrote "This world is not my home, I'm just a passing through. My treasures are laid up somewhere beyond the blue." Where are our treasures laid up"
"Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap."
