9/1 2 Corinthians 5:1
1 For we know that when this earthly tent we live in is taken down — when we die and leave these bodies — we will have a home in heaven, an eternal body made for us by God himself and not by human hands.
CREATION
We are a creation of God. He lets us choose to follow Him. He gives us the proof we need that we didn’t create ourselves. Life is an accumulation of choices. A good life is made up of good choices. Choose the Jesus and He will guide you to create a good life-a life with eternal impact.

8/31 John 14:28-31
28 Remember what I told you: I am going away, but I will come back to you again. If you really love me, you will be very happy for me, because now I can go to the Father, who is greater than I am. 29 I have told you these things before they happen so that you will believe when they do happen. 30 “I don’t have much more time to talk to you, because the prince of this world approaches. He has no power over me, 31 but I will do what the Father requires of me, so that the world will know that I love the Father. Come, let’s be going.
REMEMBER
Remember what Jesus tells you. Write it upon your heart by memorization. Remember the lessons you have learned from Christ and apply them to your life. The Christ like life is a surrendered life. Be quick to listen and slow to anger. Jesus loves you.

27 “I am leaving you with a gift — peace of mind and heart. And the peace I give isn’t like the peace the world gives. So don’t be troubled or afraid.

8/29 John 14:22-26
” 22 Judas (not Judas Iscariot, but the other disciple with that name) said to him, “Lord, why are you going to reveal yourself only to us and not to the world at large?” 23 Jesus replied, “All those who love me will do what I say. My Father will love them, and we will come to them and live with them. 24 Anyone who doesn’t love me will not do what I say. And remember, my words are not my own. This message is from the Father who sent me. 25 I am telling you these things now while I am still with you. 26 But when the Father sends the Counselor as my representative — and by the Counselor I mean the Holy Spirit — he will teach you everything and will remind you of everything I myself have told you.
LISTEN
Listen, Jesus is speaking to you. He focuses on your life. He knows your needs. Do not despair, hope in Christ. He will never fail you.
8/28 John 14:20-21
20 When I am raised to life again, you will know that I am in my Father, and you are in me, and I am in you. 21 Those who obey my commandments are the ones who love me. And because they love me, my Father will love them, and I will love them. And I will reveal myself to each one of them.
OBEY
Obey the Lord. He asks us too and He helps us to understand. Our obedience indicates our love. Our obedience is the foundation for our relationship with Jesus. Are you obeying Him? Strive to be obedient.
8/27 John 14:17-19
17 He is the Holy Spirit, who leads into all truth. The world at large cannot receive him, because it isn’t looking for him and doesn’t recognize him. But you do, because he lives with you now and later will be in you. 18 No, I will not abandon you as orphans — I will come to you. 19 In just a little while the world will not see me again, but you will. For I will live again, and you will, too.
ALIVE
Jesus is alive. He is a living Savior. He loves you. He wants to give you the guidance you need to live a Godly life. He is Lord.
8/26 John 14:14-16
14 Yes, ask anything in my name, and I will do it! 15 “If you love me, obey my commandments. 16 And I will ask the Father, and he will give you another Counselor, who will never leave you.
OBEY
Check your position. Are you obeying the Lord? If so you are evidencing your love for Jesus. Life may seem complex but it is only complex when we say one thing and do another. A faithful heart stops that old deceiver.
8/25 John 14:12-13
12 “The truth is, anyone who believes in me will do the same works I have done, and even greater works, because I am going to be with the Father. 13 You can ask for anything in my name, and I will do it, because the work of the Son brings glory to the Father.
ASK
Ask Jesus to guide your life. Give Him your total devotion and ask Him to control you. Surrender you life to Christ for by giving up what you cannot control, life, you will gain eternal life, which Christ controls. Jesus will never let you go nor will He ever leave you.
8/24 John 14:8-11
8 Philip said, “Lord, show us the Father and we will be satisfied.” 9 Jesus replied, “Philip, don’t you even yet know who I am, even after all the time I have been with you? Anyone who has seen me has seen the Father! So why are you asking to see him? 10 Don’t you believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me? The words I say are not my own, but my Father who lives in me does his work through me. 11 Just believe that I am in the Father and the Father is in me. Or at least believe because of what you have seen me do.
BELIEVE
We see as through a glass darkly but by faith we believe that we will one day stand with the risen Lord Jesus. He is our Savior. He forgives our sin and makes us righteous. Jesus is our Lord and He is Lord of all. Let Him have your life so that you will have real life. Believe in Jesus. He is worthy of all of our praise, adoration, and devotion.
8/23 John 14:7
7 If you had known who I am, then you would have known who my Father is. From now on you know him and have seen him!”
WE KNOW
We know Jesus therefore we know the Father. Christ and God are one. We have His Word that we will know the Father. Knowing Jesus is His gift to us. Spend time with Jesus. Talk with Him. Listen to Him. And you will know Him and the Father better. Trust in the Lord.
