You Are Precious - the Sonnet Style
~ You Are Precious ~
( Sonnet )
~O~
In His eyes you are always precious you know.
God made you unique in every way, you see.
His love for us in every thing just show.
And from every sin He wants us be free.
~O~
He created us and in heart He plants Love seed.
And from conception always like this being.
God takes away sins, He'll ease pain indeed.
Turn new leaf, heart, with Him by believing.
~O~
Lifes compared by many , like a card deck.
Always, not knowing, what hand we'll just draw.
But He can guide, help us, thru all, each wreck.
Done! Gone! God heals our hearts, sins withdraw.
~O~
In His eyes you are always precious, you know.
His love for us in every thing just show.
~O~

- HOW TO KNOW JESUS CHRIST OUR LORD AND SAVIOR -
A salvation prayer, known by many Christians as a "Sinners Prayer," is a prayer one would say to repent from sin, ask God for forgiveness, confess belief in Jesus Christ, and accept him as Lord and Savior. Saying a salvation prayer is the first step in your personal relationship with God.
If you believe the Bible offers truth about the way of salvation, but you have not taken the step to become a Christian, it's as simple as praying this prayer. You can pray by yourself, using your own words. There is no special formula. Just pray from your heart to God, and he will save you. If you feel lost and don’t know what to pray, here’s a salvation prayer that you can follow:
Dear Lord,
I admit that I am a sinner. I have done many things that don’t please you. I have lived my life for myself only. I am sorry, and I repent. I ask You to forgive me.
I believe that You died on the cross for me to save me. You did what I could not do for myself. I come to You now and ask you to take control of my life; I give it to You. From this day forward, help me to live every day for You and in a way that pleases You.
I love you, Lord, and I thank You that I will spend all eternity with You.
Amen.
If you have just prayed this prayer, congratulations!:))
You have received Christ as your Savior and have made the best decision you will ever make—one that will change your life forever!

~ ALL THAT IS IN THE WORLD ~
- 1 John 2:15-17 -
John warns us not to love the world or the things in it. But what is the world? The apostle isn't talking about the material realm, so there's no need to deprive ourselves of everything we enjoy in life. Rather, he is reminding us that every good desire can be perverted by sinful longings and pride.
The nature of the world system is seen in the behaviors, attitudes, and ambitions of our culture:
Immorality. Our society seeks to gratify lust in ways that God has forbidden. Immorality has even entered our homes through the internet and television.
Greed. The culture is driven by a desire for wealth, material possessions, fame, and power—and some people lie, cheat, steal, or kill to get what they want.
Pride. People are lovers of self and want to be seen as better than others. It's common today to portray oneself falsely on social media in order to be admired.
Despite the sinful condition of our culture, we shouldn't be discouraged. God is greater than the world's power to entice, and His purposes aren't thwarted by sin. He is able to guide us through the darkness as we trust and follow Him.
By Dr. Charles F. Stanley
-Reflect & Pray -
There's no fear in Love. But perfect Love drives out fear, because fear has to
do with punishment. The one who fears is not made perfect in Love.
-1 John 4: 18
Loving God, thank You for Your Love. Help us to trust in and follow Your Light and Love even when the way gets dark.
~O~
