All About GOD - Growing Relationships with Jesus and Others

In Jesus, the answer is Yes. 

                  In Jesus Christ, it has always been “Yes”

Do you have a purpose for my life?  Yes, Child… One that is uniquely yours.

Can you tell me what lies on the other side of this life?  Oh, yes!

Can you give me the strength to face life when it is difficult?  Mmmhmm.

‘Child, everything you ask me finds a yes in Jesus.’

Hello, Friends ... 

‘No matter how many promises God has made, they are “Yes” in Christ,’1 Paul said.  He who would not withhold his son from us would not withhold any good thing.  Jesus is the assurance that God’s promises are all true.  God has promised those who belong to him LIFE—life abundant, and to the full—that life is in Jesus.2   God has promised PEACE for his children, and that peace is in Jesus. 

All of the Old Testament prophecies were promises God made to his people.  He fulfilled the prophecies in Jesus Christ, keeping those promises, (making him trustworthy!)  Jesus was yes to those who got “no” from everyone else.  To the Samaritan woman at the well—you remember, the one who was into recycling men—it was yes!   To the tax collectors, despised by the general populace, it was ‘yes, I will dine with you.’ 

His manner was open and approachable; in fact, Jesus had such charisma that people would sit three days straight, without food, just to hear his riveting words.  Jesus was the man for others.  He kept himself free for the other person.  He would accept almost anybody’s invitation to dinner, (yes!), and as a result, no public figure had a more diverse list of friends, ranging from rich people, Roman centurions, and Pharisees to tax collectors, prostitutes, and leprosy victims.3  Truly, in Jesus Christ, it has always been yes. 

~>Maybe it is time for you to say yes to Jesus. 

Yes, Jesus, I will come to you when I am weary … when I need rest for my body, soul, and my spirit, for you alone satisfy.  

Yes, Jesus, I receive your grace~

Yes, Jesus, I will follow where you lead me. 

Yes, Jesus, I will entrust both the beauty and the challenges of this very day to you!

Yes, Jesus I trust that your promises are true for me, and for my life.                                                       1- 2 Corinthians 1.20; 2-  John 10.10; 3- The Jesus I Never Knew, Philip Yancey

Yes to you, Jesus~
