Words of Encouragement and Thoughts (6)

[Martyr's Crown]

God always was. And beautiful is the fact that for all that time, God always knew His own. We didn't exist yet, but we existed in His knowledge. And all that He has done, He has done for us. And all that He is, He is for us. We were, are, and always will be His objective. Even His eternal nature is such because of His love for us.

And we were also made for Him. This is the truth, really! Yet He gave us a own will to choose for ourselves, whether we wanted to become His as well. Letting us choose if we wanted Him too, or if we wanted to decide not to want Him.

His love isn't "forced" on us, because of His divine love for us He lets us choose, and He respects our choice made too.

 

[Sam81]

And just think, the Bible says that one day each of us will be given a white stone with a name that no man knows but the one receiving it. Can you imagine? It must be like recovering an everlasting memory.

"Oh, wow...yes. This is me."

What kind of fool would give that up? He who loves his life will lose it, he who hates his life for the sake of the gospel will find it.

I not only want eternal life...but I want others to have it, too!

I not only want eternal life...but I want others to have it, too!

That's also a part I find special.

Wanting others to also have eternal life is a great virtue to have in God. And especially when you wish this for your enemies as well.

Hello, everyone! I hope you have all had a nice Christmas. I'm sorry I have not been on in a long time, but I had been having very bad PC issues. Just now got it straightened out. Some sites are not easy to navigate through my phone so I had to wait until my PC was back up again. Now that it is back up, I have to work on getting things loaded back on the computer.

Anyway, it's nice to be back. I look forward to seeing your encouragement posted.
