Ephesians 3:17b-19: And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know this love that surpasses knowledge--that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Bracelet

You have found a bracelet!  They all say different things, but the message is still the same..........you are loved!  Put this bracelet on and every time you wear it, remember that message!  When sitting down to write this blog entry, I kept looking at the bracelet and thinking about those good ole friendship bracelets I used to make when I was little.  Oh how I loved to sit and tie knots all day in order to construct a beautiful masterpiece to give to one of my friends.  That led me to Jesus.  That sparked my thoughts of Jesus' friends.  His disciples.  His boys.  When Jesus called these men to be his disciples, he did not go to the church and pick out the most prestigious men with the best resume to be his followers.  Instead, he picked a tax collector, fishermen, a zealot, etc. to drop everything and follow Him.  There is no stipulations to Jesus' friend list, but He wanted to make it perfectly clear that no matter what, no matter your background, no matter your flaws, you are Jesus' friend!  He has called you to follow Him!  (Luke 5:1-11)  Becoming a believer means starting a relationship, a friendship, with Jesus Christ and to drop all your baggage, your insecurities, your hang ups and to FOLLOW Him!!  I have great news for you......Jesus Christ wants to be your friend.  He loves you without any restraint and made sure that you were the one that picked up the bracelet that some child left for you!!  The message is loud and clear that Jesus wants to be your friend.....all you have to do is FOLLOW!  If you would like to ask any questions or get any more personal information, please don't hesitate to send us an email!!!  lovecometolife@gmail.com
Luke 9:23
Then he said to them all: “Whoever wants to be my disciple must deny themselves and take up their cross daily and follow me.
