I’ll Give You Eternity


I’ll Give You Eternity

“God makes people right with himself through their faith in Jesus Christ.”  Romans 3:22

Even if you’ve fallen, even if you’ve failed, even if everyone else has rejected you, Christ will not turn away from you. He came first and foremost to those who have no hope. He goes to those no one else would go to and says, “I’ll give you eternity.”

 God will not fulfill your dream immediately

"We all have to go through these waiting periods. Even Jesus waited for thirty years in the carpenter's shop before setting out on his public ministry. "

More than forgiveness

“This is my commitment to my people: removal of their sins.”  Romans 11:27, The Message
God does more than forgive our mistakes; he removes them! We simply have to take them to him.

He not only wants the mistakes we’ve made. He wants the ones we are making. Are you making some? . . .

If so, don’t pretend nothing is wrong . . . Go first to God. The first step after a stumble must be in the direction of the cross.

Key objectives for servants who lead…

Shepherd them by modeling Christ’s care and sacrifice.
Share leadership and delegate authority.
Love them and lead them.
