2 John 1-2 " This letter is from John, the elder. I am writing to the chosen lady and to her children, whom I love in the truth—as does everyone else who knows the truth— because the truth lives in us and will be with us forever." (NLT)
Lord, You already know my thoughts before I think them, so You know that when I read this today, I felt like You, through John, were speaking directly to me; not because of anything I have done, but because of Your saving grace that saved not only me, but my husband and children, their wives, and now their children. Thank You, Lord, for choosing us. I know You paid the sin price for the WHOLE world and you didn't just die for the few that would come to salvation, and my heart breaks for those who would reject Your truth. It is a blessing none the less, that You love me and my family in the truth and because of the truth.
Lord, I want to thank You for creating this world with seasons and for placing us in such a beautiful area to live in. We have had a very mild winter here in Virginia, and You sent Spring in late January! You caused crocus to bloom then, and in February: daffodils, forcythia, purple plum, and star magnolias! Spring song birds sing Your praises all day and then when they rest for the night, the peepers pick up their praise songs. The gentle rain has caused the grass to green, has cleansed the air giving it that "spring" smell, and has watered the ground. The tulips are pushing up out of the ground and the freezing temperatures are far less frequent. Everything is coming back to life! What a wonder! You are the marvelous creator! I praise you!
