Peter shares with us some GREAT news! I Peter 1:3-5: “What a God we have! And how fortunate we are to have him, this Father of our Master Jesus! Because Jesus was raised from the dead, we’ve been given a brand-new life and have everything to live for, including a future in heaven—and the future starts now! God is keeping careful watch over us and the future. The Day is coming when you’ll have it all—life healed and whole.” (The Message version)

Think about this for a moment. Has there ever been a time on this earth when there were no quarrels? No wars? No political upheaval? No sadness? No grief? No dying? Read the Old Testament and you lose count of the land wars, the Kings in turmoil, the unrest and rampant sin. Hm, kinda’ sounds like the world we live in now!

The Great news from Peter is a reminder that Jesus saved us by giving His life for us. Knowing Him as our Lord and Savior, grants us a new life in Christ. God is in control.  Turn over the reins and look to your future.  Verse 5 says it beautifully in this translation: “…you will have it all, life healed and whole!” Hallelujah, He is risen. He is risen indeed!

You have everything to live for and look forward to…see it! Trust in the Lord with your whole heart and know that believing in Him, building your faith, trusting in your future…you will have it all with Jesus! He loves you unconditionally.

Be blessed
