TODAY’S THOUGHT
Philippians 3:7-10  "But whatever were gains to me I now consider loss for the sake of Christ. What is more, I consider everything a loss because of the surpassing worth of knowing Christ Jesus my Lord, for whose sake I have lost all things. I consider them garbage, that I may gain Christ and be found in him, not having a righteousness of my own that comes from the law, but that which is through faith in Christ--the righteousness that comes from God on the basis of faith. I want to know Christ--yes, to know the power of his resurrection and participation in his sufferings, becoming like him in his death"

All of life is wrapped up in this one simple truth, true happiness and inner peace is only found in a relationship with Jesus. There may be others who will tell otherwise; but the fact is only a relationship with Christ makes all things good.

In life we will go through many different seasons and times in our journey of faith. There may be times when we have a lot and there may be times when we have little. There may be times when those we love disappoint us and times when they bring us great joy. There may be times when we do not measure up to our expectations of ourselves and times we have great confidence. There is one thing that will always remain and will never fail and that is God’s great love for us.

Live today thankful for your personal relationship with Jesus. Remember what He has done for you through the cross so that you can experience true happiness that is not based upon ever changing circumstances. You are loved!
