Ecc 3:2
a time to be born, and a time to die;
a time to plant, and a time to pluck up what is planted;

Mt 5:43-44
“You have heard that it was said, ‘You shall love your neighbor and hate your enemy.’ But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you.”

Gratitude
We must be grateful for the blessings we have today because there’s no guarantee they will remain forever.

Please consider yourself a vital extension of this ministry!

Jn 10:11
I am the [definite article sets Him apart as unique] good shepherd. The good shepherd lays down his life for the sheep.

The Simplicity of Salvation
Not only is the Gospel easy to understand/digest, but it is also tied to a command to believe it by the One with exclusive rights on salvation, its intended result!

2Pe 3:9 [Amplified]
The Lord does not delay [as though He were unable to act] and is not slow about His promise, as some count slowness, but is [extraordinarily] patient toward you, not wishing for any to perish but for all to come to repentance.

Joel 2:13 [Amplified]
Rip your heart to pieces [in sorrow and contrition] and not your garments.” Now return [in repentance] to the Lord your God, For He is gracious and compassionate, Slow to anger, abounding in lovingkindness [faithful to His covenant with His people]; And He relents [His sentence of] evil [when His people genuinely repent].]
