Giving In Perspective

November is about giving thanks to God for what we have but December is about giving what we have to God like our time, our talent, and our money. God gave it all to us so why not give some of it back to him. This December think of some stuff you can give back to God and give it to him on Christmas. John 10:14-15 “I am the shepherd who cares for the sheep. I know my sheep just as the Father knows me. And my sheep know me just as I know the Father. I give my life for these sheep.
The real reason for Christmas. 
Have a very merry Christmas!

What is True Love?

What is True Love? A lot people think that love or True Love is fall in love with someone, getting married, and having kids; but that's not True Love. True Love is giving of yourself for someone else. Jesus gave himself for us because he Truly Loved us. I heard a story about a man who gave himself so his daughter could be taken in an orphanage and cared for because the orphanage would not take her because her father was still alive. Jesus was thinking the same thing when he hung on the cross he was thinking that if he died we would be saved and cared for by the holy spirit. John 15:13 Greater love has no one than this, that he lay his life down for his friends. Do you Truly Love?
John 3:16 "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."
