Verse of the Day:  Romans 6:23       

For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord.          

We were all born into a world of sin and at the end of a life of sin is eternal damnation; but because Jesus gave His life to pay for our sins we have been offered the gift of salvation and eternal life in heaven. God loves us so much that He gave His only Son so that we could be saved. Even though the road may be narrow and often difficult at times, we can be sure that in the end, we will have a blessed everlasting life with the Lord. Because He died for us we should live our lives for Him. How do we live for Jesus? Jesus said, Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind and with all your strength. (Mark 12:30).

Heavenly Father, thank You for sending Your only Son who gave his for us that we might be saved. Because He died for me I want to live for Him by loving You with all my heart and soul and with all my mind and strength. Help me to live a righteous and holy life that brings honor and glory to You. Amen
