What’s in a shadow? Nothing . . . it’s simply visible.

So is our life without Christ.

You can do nothing without Him.

John 15:5 (KJV) – I am the vine, ye are the branches: He that abideth in me, and I in him, the same bringeth forth much fruit: for without me ye can do nothing.

God will bend over backwards for us.

Most won’t even bend for Him.

He gave his Son for us, who died for you and me.

John 3:16 (KJV) – for God so loved the world, that he gave His only begotten Son, that whosever believeth in Him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

The only way to our Father is through Jesus Christ.

If you don’t believe in Jesus, how are you going to get to God Almighty?

John 14:6 (KJV) – Jesus said unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.

Satan doesn’t care if you’re committed to him.

He just wants to make sure you’re not doing the will of God.

Remember, he’s a thief.

John 10:10 (KJV) – the thief cometh not, but for to steal, and to kill, and to destroy; I am come that they might have life, and that they might have it more abundantly.

When we go to others to tell them whats wrong with them, most of the time, they tell us whats wrong with us.

Don’t have an attitude, but see it as coming from God. He just may be showing you you.

Examine yourself.

II Corinthians 13:5 (KJV) – examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates.

Those who treat others wrong, find it hard to accept when they get it back.

Treat others like you want to be treated.

Luke 6:31 (KJV) – and as ye would that men should do to you, do ye also to them likewise.

God loves you and theres nothing you can do about it.

There’s nothing you can do to stop God from loving you.

Romans 8:38-39 (KJV) – for I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Giving doesn’t always have to be in the form of money. Give love, joy, peace, grace, mercy, forgiveness, prayer and encouragement!

It will be given back to you.

Luke 6:30 (KJV) – give, and it shall be given unto you; good measure, pressed down, and shaken together, and running over, shall men give into your bosom. For with the same measure that ye mete withal it shall be measured to you again.

The trials in our lives are only pit stops, not permanent residence.

Move forward!

Philippians 3:13 (KJV) – brethren, I count not myself to have apprehended: but this one thing I do, forgetting those things which are behind, and reaching forth unto those things which are before.

The next time you’re faced with a situation, smile and shake it off. It’s patience, testing your faith.

James 1:2-3 (KJV) – my brethren, count it all joy when ye fall into divers temptations; knowing this, that the trying of your faith worketh patience.
