of the Week for 4/1/2022
”THE LORD BELIEVES IN YOU” John 4: 39-42
John 4:39 Many Samaritans from the village believed in Jesus because the
woman had said, “He told me everything I ever did!” 40 When they
came out to see him, they begged him to stay in their village. So he stayed for
two days, 41 long enough for many more to hear his message and
believe. 42 Then they said to the woman, “Now we believe, not
just because of what you told us, but because we have heard him ourselves. Now
we know that he is indeed the Savior of the world.”
More
good news! Our Lord believes in you! Jesus believed the Samaritan woman would
go and tell about his love. As with the Samaritan woman the Lord also believes
in you. He knows you will do his will and he fills you with his own spirit so
you can accomplish his goals. He counts on you to take his compassion wherever
you go.
”THE LORD
BELIEVES IN YOU” John 4: 39-42
As His
believer now,
You're
separate and unique,
From your
feet to your brow,
You are made
complete.
It matters
whose you are,
And that you
forgive,
You are
God's shining star,
Filled with
love to give.
Prayer helps
you transform,
And lets you
seek His face,
For He keeps
you from harm,
And fits you
with His grace.
And in Him
you are strong,
To help
those through trouble,
And when you
are torn,
He'll
relieve your struggle.
You live in
a difficult world,
But His
spirit surrounds you,
So fret not
what you've heard,
For His love
has found you.
The world
will remain undone,
But His love
perfects you,
Others will
know He's the One,
Because He
believes in you!

Poem
for my great grandsons: Jeremiah, Tobiah and Elijah
Jeremiah
1:4-10 4 The word of the LORD came to me, saying, 5 "Before I formed you
in the womb I knew you, before you were born I set you apart; I appointed you
as a prophet to the nations." 6 "Alas, Sovereign LORD," I said,
"I do not know how to speak; I am too young." 7 But the LORD said to
me, "Do not say, 'I am too young.' You must go to everyone I send you to
and say whatever I command you. 8 Do not be afraid of them, for I am with you
and will rescue you," declares the LORD. 9 Then the LORD reached out his
hand and touched my mouth and said to me, "I have put my words in your
mouth. 10 See, today I appoint you over nations and kingdoms to uproot and tear
down, to destroy and overthrow, to build and to plant."
Jeremiah 1:5 & 9 "Before I formed you in the womb,
I knew you" And “put My words in your mouth.”
GOD BELIEVES IN YOU!
Your
Lord knows you,
Even
before your birth,
He
put His word in you,
It's
unbelievable your worth.
He
made a very special you,
Filling
your heart with love,
You
are given so much too,
So
you can share that love.
You're
priceless in His sight,
Watched
over like a treasure,
He's
makes all things right,
Caring
for you in great measure.
