Time For Us

July 10, 2013

Do not worry about your life . . .
–Matthew 6:25 (NIV)

Some people ask, “Do you think God has time for me? You don’t know how mixed up my life is, how confused it is; the pressures, the tension at home, the business problems, so many things I couldn’t possibly tell you about, including the sins in my life that I somehow cannot seem to give up.” Yes, God has time for you. When Jesus was dying on the cross, He had time for a thief who turned to Him and said, “Lord, remember me.” That’s all the record tells us that the thief said, “Lord, remember me.” But what he was really saying was, “I’m unworthy. I’ve broken all the laws. I deserve hell. Just remember me.” And Jesus turned to him in that moment and said, “Today you will be with me in Paradise.”

Prayer for the day

Even in Your greatest suffering, Lord Jesus, You had time to assure another of Your love. My heart is comforted to know this caring for my soul is infinite.

It's impossible for me to fathom a God this Great!!! So I quit trying and just try to keep in his word and trust and follow Jesus each and every day.

It is so easy to sin but that is when we most think of God to help us not to fall into ten ration just like he did in the desert. God give us the strength to defeat our daily sinful thoughts

I thank you God, my Heavenly Father, for remembering Billy Graham and I today. I pray you will continue to forgive us our sins. Keep bringing me back into the light. I am not profited by sin in my life, or being a sinner. Thank you Jesus. Amen.

God has always had time for me, I should have realized it when I was younger. But now, I know He is there whenever I need him. I am the one that needs to have time for Him.

God's love for each of us is so incredible that he cares about every last detail of our lives. He lovingly considers our every desire and request.Then chooses what is best to become the best we can be according to his perfect plan for each of us.

Lord pls have time for me, even though am not worthy of you. Forgive me my sins and show me love and compassion.

The Bible declares, Who is a God like unto Thee that pardoneth iniquity; and Thou wilt cast all our sins into the depths of the sea (Micha 7:18-19). Yes, LORD, for as the heaven is high above the earth so great is Your mecy toward them that fear You!

I never really thought of it that way. Thanks for posting this!

Mark says 7.10.2012, 01:11 a.m.

Amen Dr. Graham! I love what Paul wrote to the Ephesians in Eph 2:4-6 that God loved us with His great love and raised us up together with Christ and seated us with Him in the heavenly places in Christ. In a way today we are seated in Him in Paradise

Lord please remember all and assure we have your love. The Bible tells this but we easily forget. The troubled waters are calmed by Your love.

Gerry says 7.10.2011, 08:39 a.m.

God knows us more intimately than we know ourselves. If we are faithful to confess our sins to him he promises to for give us. I love the ways it stated in psalm 103, he has removed our sins away from us, as far as the east is from the west.

Marty says 7.10.2011, 07:36 a.m.

Thank you Jesus for daily reassurance of God's love for all people through the promises of your Word and Your death and resurrection for us. No greater Love has every been displayed for all to see than that. Now we can have Your love in our heart/life.

Sharon says 7.10.2011, 01:29 a.m.

Without God's love, I would not be who I am today...

As This Day Winds Down, I Find Comfort in The Knowledge That The Lord Has My Loved Ones Who Have Gone Home and Who I Will Meet in Heaven With My Lord King and Saviour Jesus Christ Whom I Love With My Whole Heart!!

Caroline says 6.30.2011, 10:23 a.m.

Yes, I knew that God has His time for me and love me. For I trust Him, I love Him for His caring for me. I knew God loves every one. No matter who we are, Thank God for his caring for us.
