Sure Hope Gazette

Hi guys. we were recently encouraged during these challenging times to always hang on tight to the Rock of our Salvation. A dear friend sent us these Scriptures as a reminder. Dear Lord please encourage all who read Your Word and help us all to remember always to hold on to You. Help us not to worry, but to rest, knowing Your Word reassures us that we have no reason to fear or worry. For anyone reading this post, searching for the meaning of life and Sure Hope, please stir their hearts and draw them to You Lord Jesus. Help them to know that being a Christian is a relationship with Jesus and not following a religion. They Jesus loves everyone, inspire of what we may feel. Thank You Father for your love and forgiveness. Please bless all who read Your Word, helping them wherever they need help. We love you Lord. In Jesus' Name I pray, Amen [ Jhn 16:33 NLT ] 33 I have told you all this so that you may have peace in me. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows. But take heart...

This message is great for all of us. You may think, oh that's Joni, the lady who broke her neck in 1967 when she was 17. She's the lady who inspires people living with disabilities. That's great for them, but, I don't need to listen - it's not for me because I don't have a disability. Well, we would ask you if you do think like that, please think again. Joni's message is always a powerful one to all people. Whatever you may struggle with or however you may feel, god blesses this amazing woman with a heart that shares the love of Christ. She encourages me, and millions of others. And we want to share more messages from her as we receive them to help inspire and motivate, spur on anyone who's heart longs for meaning, Sure Hope and New Life. Including seeing that quality of life is not about whether or not your body works, you are healthy or rich, successful as the world sees successful, come and hear what real Sure Hope is all about, from a woman who kno...

Are You Hurting? Meet Kegan. Again, I don't have the words to speak for this dear young man. Even if you aren't a homosexual, watch ad listen to this incredible testimony. I believe that Kegan's story would not only encourage and offer Sure Hope to those hurting and struggling, but meeting wonderful people like Kegan for those of us who are Christ followers, will stir your heart to reach out in love to all people. I know how judgemental and critical some Christians an be toward non-believers, even shunning  them. May we all have the heart of Christ to reach out with open hearts and arms to a very hurting world. There is a world of very young, wounded and abused, physically, sexually and/or emotionally who need physical rescuing and the  love of Jesus Christ shown through us.  Unless God speaks to their hearts and intervenes supernaturally, with no Christians present, yes,  if you met Afshin Javid , that can happen, but generally God loves through us. We Can...

AMEN!" quote  from his   YouTube channel

2Cr 5:14-21 NLT - Whatever we do, it is because Christ's love controls us. Since we believe that Christ died for everyone, we also believe that we have all died to the old life we used to live.  He died for everyone so that those who receive His New Life will no longer live to please themselves. Instead, they will live to please Christ, who died and was raised for them. So we have stopped evaluating others by what the world thinks about them. Once I mistakenly thought of Christ that way, as though He were merely a human being. How differently I think about Him now!   What this means is that those who become Christians become new persons. They are not the same anymore, for the old life is gone. A New Life has begun!  All this newness of life is from God, who brought us back to himself through what Christ did. And God has given us the task of reconciling people to Him. For God was in Christ, reconciling the world to Himself, no longer counting ...
