"Only Life Changes"

The LORD is my shepherd; I shall not want. He maketh me to lie down in green pastures: he leadeth me beside the still waters. He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name’s sake.

• Psalms 23:1-3

If the Son therefore shall make you free, ye shall be free indeed.
– John 8:36

But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, being now justified by his blood, we shall be saved from wrath through him.
– Romans 5:8-9

And the angel answered and said unto the women, Fear not ye: for I know that ye seek Jesus, which was crucified. He is not here: for he is risen, as he said. Come, see the place where the Lord lay.
– Matthew 28:5-6

But he was wounded for our transgressions, he was bruised for our iniquities: the chastisement of our peace was upon him; and with his stripes we are healed. All we like sheep have gone astray; we have turned every one to his own way; and the LORD hath laid on him the iniquity of us all.

• Isaiah 53:5-6

And it was about the sixth hour, and there was a darkness over all the earth until the ninth hour. And the sun was darkened, and the veil of the temple was rent in the midst. And when Jesus had cried with a loud voice, he said, Father, into thy hands I commend my spirit: and having said thus, he gave up the ghost.
– Luke 23:44-46

Have a nice day! 🙂

He is despised and rejected of men; a man of sorrows, and acquainted with grief: and we hid as it were our faces from him; he was despised, and we esteemed him not. Surely he hath borne our griefs, and carried our sorrows: yet we did esteem him stricken, smitten of God, and afflicted.-
– Isaiah 53:3-4

Verily, verily, I say unto you, Except a corn of wheat fall into the ground and die, it abideth alone: but if it die, it bringeth forth much fruit. He that loveth his life shall lose it; and he that hateth his life in this world shall keep it unto life eternal.
– John 12:24-25

Our daughter Lena showed us a picture of her scare crow and her corn. I was like that is awesome how she showed us as it grew and her and her friend made a scare crow and the scare crow broke during the wind, but she was able to fix it.

In John 12:24-25 these verses teach that true life and eternal significance come through surrender, sacrifice, and faith. It’s a call to follow Jesus’ example of self-giving love. This is a profound passage where Jesus uses the metaphor of a grain of wheat to illustrate the principle of sacrifice leading to greater life and fruitfulness.

God will come along and fix our brokeness if we choose to let Him.

Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God:
– Ephesians 6:16-17

Offer unto God thanksgiving; and pay thy vows unto the most High: And call upon me in the day of trouble: I will deliver thee, and thou shalt glorify me.
– Psalms 50:14-15
