Do you want to become a Christian?
Romans 8:23-2623 And it’s not just creation. We who have already experienced the firstfruits of the Spirit also inwardly groan as we passionately long to experience our full status as God’s sons and daughters—including our physical bodies being transformed. 24 For this is the hope of our salvation. But hope means that we must trust and wait for what is still unseen. For why would we need to hope for something we already have? 25 So because our hope is set on what is yet to be seen, we patiently keep on waiting for its fulfillment. 26 And in a similar way, the Holy Spirit takes hold of us in our human frailty to empower us in our weakness. For example, at times we don’t even know how to pray, or know the best things to ask for. But the Holy Spirit rises up within us to super-intercede on our behalf, pleading to God with emotional sighs too deep for words.
About Living God’s Words
This site is to talk about God, to learn His words, to live them, love them, be them. You will read about how good God, our creator really is, how by being what He wants us to be we can all live a happy joy filled life. Finding that missing place in your heart where God is meant to be, it’s all you need to do. So come inside and read all about how He just wants us all to be happy, to love and save one another.
I love the fact that even though we are Christians and we believe Christ is our savior, we still really don’t know how grand and wonderful He really is! How great, how large and how much love He really, truly has for us. All our knowledge and beliefs are such a tiny part of Christ’s reality.
We must seek God for help no matter how smart we are! He is the ‘Eternal Father’, ‘Everlasting’, meaning creator of all things, even time, ages and all purpose of everything.
For by Him all things were created, that are in heaven and that are on earth, visible and unseen. Colossians 1:16
Faith Hope Love. Although Love is the most important virtue of God, hope is very important too, with out hope we have (essentially) nothing to live for.
Where do Christians get their authentic hope from?
- Hope is a reactive occurrence of something that hasn’t happened, yet will indeed happen.
- Hope must involve something that is as yet unseen: Hope that is seen is no hope at all. Who hopes for what they already have?
- Jesus is our blessed hope, hope of His return, we can’t see Him yet, but we know He is coming and we anticipate that event with joy!
I pray that God, the source of all hope will fill you completely with joy and peace because you trust in Him!
I trust You Lord, fully, completely and graciously just as You graciously love us no matter what. 2 Samuel 2:23
Isaiah 12:2-3
2 See, God has come to save me. I will trust in him and not be afraid. God is my strength and my song; he has given me victory. 3 With joy you will drink deeply from the fountain of salvation!
Psalms 139:1-2 – You Know All About Me – For the Pure and Shining One – King David’s poetic song
1 Lord, you know everything there is to know about me. 2 You perceive every movement of my heart and soul, and you understand my every thought before it even enters my mind.
Psalms 46:10
Surrender your anxiety! Be silent and stop your striving and you will see that I am God. I am the God above all the nations, and I will be exalted throughout the whole earth.
Psalms 39:4-5 – Our time is short
4 “Lord, remind me how brief my time on earth will be. Remind me that my days are numbered—how fleeting my life is.
5 You have made my life no longer than the width of my hand. My entire lifetime is just a moment to you; at best, each of us is but a breath.”
Deuteronomy 6:5-9 NLT
5 And you must love the LORD your God with all your heart, all your soul, and all your strength.
6 And you must commit yourselves wholeheartedly to these commands that I am giving you today.
7 Repeat them again and again to your children. Talk about them when you are at home and when you are on the road, when you are going to bed and when you are getting up.
8 Tie them to your hands and wear them on your forehead as reminders.
9 Write them on the doorposts of your house and on your gates.

7 How then does a man gain the essence of wisdom? We cross the threshold of true knowledge when we live in obedient devotion to God. Stubborn know-it-alls will never stop to do this, for they scorn true wisdom and knowledge.
Joshua 1:6-9
Strength & Courage
6 “Be strong and courageous, for you are the one who will lead these people to possess all the land I swore to their ancestors I would give them.
