Gifts Within The Gift
READ:
1 John 5:9-13,20Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! 2 Corinthians 9:15
Sharons favorite Christmas gift last year from her husband Andy was an antique treasure chest. Inside were three boxes with additional gifts of chocolates and jewelry. She enjoyed each gift within the gift.
When God sent His Son Jesus to be the Savior of the world, He gave us many gifts within the Gift. Now when people receive the gift of Jesus, they also receive these special gifts, which they could obtain in no other way:
Forgiveness of sin. In [Jesus] we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins, according to the riches of His grace (Eph. 1:7).
Teaching from the Holy Spirit. Jesus promised, The Helper, the Holy Spirit, whom the Father will send in My name, He will teach you all things (John 14:26).
Eternal life and a home in heaven. John said, He who has the Son has life (1 John 5:12). Jesus promised, In My Fathers house are many mansions; . . . I go to prepare a place for you (John 14:2).
A love like no other. As the Father loved Me, I also have loved you . . . . Greater love has no one than this, than to lay down ones life for his friends (John 15:9,13).
Have you received Gods indescribable Gift? You only need to ask.
The ABCs Of Salvation
Admit that youre a sinner (Rom. 3:23).
Believe on Christ (Acts 16:31).
Confess your faith (Rom. 10:9-10).
Jesus is both the gift and the Giver of every good gift.

Great article JH2! I just made a comment on another thread related to this. I've been thinking a lot about what the agenda of the press is in finally noticing the good news in Iraq. I hadn't really thought about it from your angle. The
Enemedia is NOT on our (America's) side. We do well to remember that they do not want us to be victorious.

God Bless Our Military
Below are names of some of our FReepers' loved ones who are serving our country. If you have someone you would like to add, please address a post to Billie; Dutchess; Aquamarine; The Mayor; DollyCali; GodBlessUSA and we will add their name to this list. As we pray for them, we pray also for all our nation's leaders, and military personnel, and their families and friends. May God hold them close to His heart.
~~~~~~~~~~ ~~~~~~~~~~
We ask Lord, that You guide the leaders of our great country in their hour of decision. The burden that has been placed on their shoulders is overwhelming. We ask that with Your infinite wisdom You guide them gently to the right decisions.
Please give us the strength, Lord, to get through each difficult day that faces each of us and our country. Lord, hold our troops in your loving hands. Protect them as they protect us. Bless them and their families for the selfless acts they perform for us in our time of need. I ask this in the name of Jesus, our Lord and Savior. Amen.

Thank you so much for this, another fun and entertaining essay, you two! Always puts a smile on my face when I read John's words and look forward to the way it's illustrated.
Like the way you vignetted your illustrations, Aqua - great job presenting another great essay. (That pledge graphic is beautiful!)

I agree. It would also make a good tagline.
