Friday the 13th - But...

Thursday, June 12, 2008

Well, tomorrow is FRIDAY THE 13TH, so everyone everywhere is expecting (fearing?) BAD LUCK. Why don't you ever hear about a special date for GOOD LUCK?

Jesus told us we have some very GOOD "LUCK" -- every day. Listen...

He said, "Don't be afraid. God knows and loves you so well, that he even knows HOW MANY HAIRS you have on your head" - that is true intimacy.

In fact, even though we think of some creatures, (like sparrows) as not valuable, to God all creatures are very valuable. Can you believe that God knows each time even a small bird falls to the ground and dies?? He does.

We even think of some PEOPLE as NOT VALUABLE, but to God, each of us is a beloved child, no matter who we are.
If God even knows when a little sparrow falls to the ground and dies, how much more will God know when YOU are afraid, sad, suffering or in danger??

Of course God knows - and God cares. And God will hold you in the palm of his hand.

That's even better than GOOD LUCK. That's GOOD LOVE. From the Almighty.
Remember that on Friday the 13th.

Peace,
