THOUGHT FOR TODAY with Linda

God created the Heavens and the Earth with PASSION and PURPOSE! You are the reason for His Creation! You were created with a PURPOSE! He gave them DOMINION over the whole earth! Adam and Eve disobeyed God and ate from the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil and lost their dominion.  God the Father, sent Jesus His Son, to the earth to become a man to take the penalty of sin for us - so we can come back to God and have a relationship with Him once again. God is HOLY and no sin can enter into His presence.  Jesus became SIN for us - who knew no sin - so we could be made righteous - in right-standing with God.  Receive Jesus Christ as your Savior and Lord and He will wash away all your sin and make you righteous in God's sight.  Ask Him to fill you with His Spirit!  You are loved!

For those who choose to make Jesus Lord - they'll be enjoying living in the New Heaven and Earth. They will eat the fruit from that "TREE OF LIFE" and live forever - without the curse that came through sin. All guilt, shame, pain, sickness, poverty and death will be gone forever! Revelation 21:10-11; 27 NKJV 10 And he carried me away in the Spirit to a great and high mountain, and showed me the g
