TO KEEP YOU FROM FALLING
AND
TO PRESENT YOU
BEFORE HIS
GLORIOUS PRESENCE
WITHOUT FAULT
AND
WITH GREAT JOY-
TO THE ONLY GOD OUR SAVIOR
BE GLORY, MAJESTY,POWER AND AUTHORITY,
THROUGH JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD,
BEFORE ALL AGES,
NOW,
AND FOREVERMORE!
AMEN."
Jude :24 & 25
To have the knowledge and belief that I will be PRESENTED to God WITHOUT FAULT
and with GREAT JOY can keep me joyful even on the worst of days in the face of
all my weaknesses and imperfections. Jesus has our back. He has covered ALL OF
OUR SINS. I will be joyfully presented as PERFECT.......How do people get
through life without this belief???
I read the story "Cinderella" to my 2 little girls yesterday and listen to a
few of the lines:
"But after Cinderella's father died, the Stepmother was very cold and cruel to
Cinderella. The kind girl was forced to work as a servant in her own house.
STILL, CINDERELLA WAS ALWAYS CHEERFUL. SURE THAT ONE DAY HER DREAMS OF HAPPINESS
WOULD COME TRUE, SHE STARTED EACH DAY WITH A SONG."
"Now faith is being SURE OF WHAT WE HOPE FOR..." Hebrews 11:1
"Be JOYFUL in HOPE." Romans 12:12
May we be like Cinderella. May we be SURE that one day our dreams of being
perfect, presented as faultless and in a place of perfect happiness will come
true. May we start each day with a song in our heart, a song of praise and
thankfulness to the one who has made it possible for us to be presented as
perfect.

account of me." Phillipians 1:25 & 26
