Jude 1:21 “…keep yourselves in God’s love as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ to bring you to eternal life.” The most important gift you or I could ever receive is the gift of eternal life. This gift is so valuable all the assets of the world are nothing in comparison. This gift is only a result of the love our God has for each of us. Why does our Almighty God love you and me so much? Why would God send Jesus to this earth? Why does God want you and me to live with Him for all eternity? Because He does. We get a small glimpse of an answer by thinking—why do you love your children? Because you do. Yet, God’s love is much much greater. Don’t ask why. Live in joy, obedience and express a giant–THANK YOU!

Jude 1:1b “To those who have been called, who are loved by God the Father and kept by Jesus Christ:” It is beyond our wildest dreams that our God would adopt each of us as His child and love us dearly. Our wildest dream has come true. That true thought is almost incomprehensible. Nothing could start or end our day better. Have a great weekend.

3 John 1:5 “Dear friend, you are faithful in what you are doing for the brothers, even though they are strangers to you.” God encourages and compliments you and me for caring for others whether we know them or not. A Christian remains faithful to his charcter regardless of the character of the person being helped. We should never lose who we are as always faithful to our Heavenly Father regardless of the faithfulness of anyone else. Remain faith filled in all situations at all times. We as Christians cannot do otherwise.

3 John 1:4 “I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.” There is not a Christian father or mother on earth who doesn’t enjoy the actions of their children as they walk in faith. The same is absolutely true of our Heavenly Father as you and I walk through our earthly life. We are His children. We are loved dearly by our Father and enjoyed by Him as we follow Him in all we do. You and I will make every effort, with His help, to make our earthly father (assuming he is faith filed) and Heavenly Father filled with joy.

3 John 1:3 “It gave me great joy to have some brothers come and tell about your faithfulness to the truth and how you continue to walk in the truth.” John only wanted to speak truth, write truth, have friends who did the same and hear from other friends that the truth was their life. John knew Jesus and therefore he knew exactly what truth was, is and forever will be. Aren’t you and I blessed to know John, be able to study the words he wrote and 100% rely on his inspired words of truth. Jesus lives and therefore so will we!
