Tuesday's Tidbit

1 John 4:19

We love him, because he first loved us.

John 3:16

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.

Good morning, one and all!

One of the greatest blessings in life is to know that we are loved. Whenever I pause to think of the blessings that God has bestowed on me, His grace, mercy, peace, etc., the one that really touches me most is His love. And, oh, what a love it is! Unconditional love that goes beyond the love that mankind can ever know, show, or understand. I am loved by Jesus Christ; that makes me glad!

Jeff and Sheri Easter, popular among Southern gospel songwriters, have written another beautiful song (and it's making the charts). I'd like to share its lyrics with you as the heart of today's spoonful:

Jesus Loves You

by Jeff & Sheri Easter

Verse One

When you feel forgotten

When you feel you're all alone

When you feel like giving up

When you feel discouraged 

And everything's uncertain

When you feel you're just not good enough

When it's slipping through your hand

And you've done all you can

And there's still so much to do

It's easy to forget

In times like this.....

Chorus

Jesus loves you

Jesus loves you

And He cares about everything

You're going through

Your name is engraved 

On the palm of His hands

That's a promise you can hold onto

It's easy to forget

In times like this

Jesus loves you

Verse Two

When the funeral is over

And the casseroles are gone

And you're about as broken as can be

When the sun ain't shining

The nights are just too long

And the weight of it all

Drives you to your knees

I've been where you are

When God just seems so far

And I need to be reminded too

It's easy to forget

In times like this......

In times like these, we need a Savior, and that Savior loves us with a never ending love. Sometimes we need to be reminded of the love of Jesus.... and oftentimes we need to remind our friends!

Have a blessedly terrific Tuesday. Enjoy the love of Jesus; embrace Him, and shine with His love to everyone you meet!

Lord willing, I'll see you tomorrow for yet another spoonful!
