Here is my desk in my garden.
I am using watercolours to make flowers to cut up.
Have not done much yet, but this is a start!
“I will not reject anyone who comes to me...”
John 6:37
After Jesus gives us His promise that He is the bread of life, that if we go to Him we will never be hungry, if we believe in Him we will never thirst, He gives us another promise. He says that He will never reject anyone who goes to Him. I am sure most of us has experienced rejection. Perhaps we were not accepted for a job we wanted, we did not get into a prestigious university, organization, or a popular clique in high school. It was painful, maybe embarrassing even. All of the most successful people like Steve Jobs, Elon Musk, Oprah Winfrey, and Warren Buffet, have lots of rejection stories to tell. Rejection is part of life.
But it is not part of our life with God. He will never reject us when we go to Him, when we want to be His friend, when we desire to be a part of His Church. He identifies so much with His people that when someone wants to reject us, hurt us, persecute us, He will ask, just as He asked Saul, “ Why are you persecuting me?” (Acts 9:4) How awesome is our God?!!
Lord, we cannot conceive of how much You love us! We do not deserve to be loved the way You do! You were actually willing to take our sins with You on the cross, to take our place as the blood sacrifice. Help us to live every day in the knowledge that we are precious to You and nothing, nothing will ever separate us from Your love!
Blessings!
Patsy
