Good morning everyone.  Feeling hopeless today read the story of the prodigal son in Luke 15:11-32.  This is what God wants to do with you.  He wants to restore you to complete authority, fellowship, and blessings by calling you a son.  How cool to call God your Father.  Who will love greater than any earthly father would.  Sonship, adoption into God's very own family.  1John 3:1-3; "1See what kind of love the Father has given to us, that we should be called children of God; and so we are. The reason why the world does not know us is that it did not know him. 2Beloved, we are God’s children now, and what we will be has not yet appeared; but we know that when he appears we shall be like him, because we shall see him as he is. 3And everyone who thus hopes in him purifies himself as he is pure."  It is time we really examine our lives and realize just how empty our lives have become without Christ.  Have a little faith beloved.  I love you all so much and am here for anyone who needs me.  God bless you all.
