Him

Me:  Howdy Prodigal!

Prodigal:  It was a rough start to the morning and I can use some encouragement.

Me:  I can share from what I read this morning.

 

This is from Charles Spurgeon’s book Joy in Christ’s Presence

 

Everything that you have, you have in Him; you have been chosen in Him, redeemed in Him, justified in Him.  You are risen in Him, but without Him you would have died the second death.  In Him you are raised up to the heavenly places, but out of Him you would have been damned eternally.

 

Do not be afraid this morning.  Your fears are not focused on the fact that your life is built on the rock of Christ.  He will help you through anything.  You are not perfect and you do not have to be perfect.  When you make a mistake then God can make sure you receive mercy and grace for that mistake.  You cannot miss up all of God’s plan just because you made a mistake.  He does not expect you to take all this alone without His guidance.

 

Psalm 90:2

Before the mountains were brought forth, or ever you had formed the earth and the world, from everlasting to everlasting you are God.
