Thanks, Potlatch!
It was AWESOME.
I no longer tolerate ANYONE complaining about “the youth of today”.
If you expect the best from them, that is what they deliver.

A Sure Salvation
May 20, 2013
A story is told that Queen Victoria of the UK was deeply moved during a church service. Afterward, she asked her chaplain, Can one be absolutely sure in this life of eternal safety? He did not have an answer. But an evangelist named John Townsend heard about the Queens question, and after much prayer he sent her a note: With trembling hands, but heartfelt love, and because I know that we can be absolutely sure now of our eternal life in the Home that Jesus went to prepare, may I ask your Most Gracious Majesty to read the following passages of Scripture: John 3:16; Romans 10:9-10?
Two weeks later, the evangelist received this letter: . . . I have carefully and prayerfully read the portions of Scripture referred to. I believe in the finished work of Christ for me, and trust by Gods grace to meet you in that Home of which He said, I go to prepare a place for you. Victoria Guelph
Townsend was confident that in this life we can have assurance of eternal safety (v.9), and he had a concern for others as well. Consider what John 3:16 and Romans 10:9-10 mean for your eternal destiny. God desires to give you the confidence that your sin is forgiven and that after death youll be with Him forever.
Blessed assurance, Jesus is mine!
Oh, what a foretaste of glory divine!
Heir of salvation, purchase of God,
Born of His Spirit, washed in His blood. Crosby
Lives rooted in Gods unchanging grace can never be uprooted.
Read: Romans 10:8-15

Not Abandoned
May 21, 2013
Years ago, while my husband and I were visiting the Smithsonian Air and Space Museum in Washington, DC, we noticed a baby stroller by itself with no one nearby. We assumed that the parents had left it there because it was too bulky and were now carrying their child. But as we approached, we saw a sleeping baby inside. Where was a parent . . . a sibling . . . a babysitter? We hung around for quite some time before hailing a museum official. No one had shown up to claim that precious child! The last we saw of him, he was being wheeled away to a safe place.
That experience made me think about what its like to be abandoned. Its an overwhelming feeling that no one cares anything about you. Its a real and excruciatingly painful feeling. But even though people may abandon us, Gods love and presence is assured. The Lord promises that He will never leave us (Deut. 31:8). He will be with us wherever we go, always, even to the end of the age (Matt. 28:20).
The Lord will never falter in His commitment to His children. Even if we have been abandoned by others, we can find confidence in His promise that nothing will ever separate us from [His] love (Rom. 8:35-39).
Father, thank You for Your never-failing presence
in every aspect of our lives. We count on Your
promise never to abandon us. Please teach us
to rest in that truth. In Jesus name, amen.
Confidence in Gods presence is our comfort.
Read: Isaiah 49:13-16
