Tell Someone About Jesus - Lisa Patterson

A woman of Samaria came to draw water. After five failed marriages her trust level was demolished, as well as her self worth. So she approaches Jesus cautiously. Brick by brick  he takes down the wall she is hiding behind. When He gets through she is transformed. Jesus said whoever lives by the truth comes into the light. Christ sees potential when others don't. The Pharisees complained saying ,This man receives sinners and eats with them. Luke 15:2. They were right. This woman was the first person Jesus introduced as the Messiah. Jesus
measures you by your potential, not by your past. Christ will change you and then  use you to change others. He does not need to be defended, just introduced. But many Samaritans believed because of the word of the woman who testified.Many more believed because of His own word.Then they said to the
woman, Now we believe not because of what you said, for we ourselves have
heard Him and we know that this is indeed the Christ, Savior of the world. John
4:41-42. So, tell someone today about Jesus and that He is waiting to be seen and heard by you! He wants to have an intimate relationship with you this very hour.
Do not let this day pass without seeking Him. Time stands still for no one and this could be the last day you had a chance to talk to Him and get yourself straightened out. everyone needs Him, as no one is excused from needing the Savior. The world needs a Savior and today. So, let Him come into your life today and change you. We never know what is in us until He shows us and needs to be taken out and replaced by Him!
The Lord would say," I am clearing out a new straight path. It is new road to travel on where it has been rough and had many things to go through. Now it will be straighter and cleaner.  Listen to the birds chirping, the trees are singing. See the beauty. The sky is blue now and I have made it this way for you. So stay by my side and don't go left or right. There's a new way made just for my people. I am so proud of my children who have stayed by my side. A new bright sunlight and blue sky. Not cloudy any more. Everything is getting brighter than before and the sun is shinning so you can see past the dark clouds. The cracks in the foundations of your homes are being repaired now. Things you thought you could not get back are coming so you can see who your God is. Look up to the heavens and you can see down at what is going on and don't have to worry because of the things of this earth. You can look from up high in the Heaven's and rejoice to see that I am up here with you, my children, and nothing shall by any means harm you." So tell somebody about Jesus, so they can have this same experience. Heaven is for real, and there is no turning back once you have gone on to everlasting existence. He loves you with an ever lasting love that cannot be duplicated any where else. This is Lisa Patterson with the Good News that Jesus Loves You and wants you to come to Him today!

Merry Christmas - Lisa Patterson

Baby Jesus was born in Bethlehem.

When we give a fragile gift, we make sure it is marked on the box that contains it. The word fragile is written with big letters because we don't want anyone to damage what is inside. God's gift to us came in the most fragile package: a baby. Sometimes we imagine Christmas day as a beautiful scene on a postcard, but any Mother can tell you it wasn't so. Mary was tired, and maybe insecure. And the baby was born in the most unsanitary conditions. She wrapped Him in swaddling clothes, and laid Him in a manger, because there was no room for them in the "inn." Luke 27.
A baby needs constant care. Babies cry, eat, sleep, and depends on caregivers. They cannot make decisions. In Mary's day, infant mortality was high, and mothers often died in childbirth. Why did God choose such a fragile way to send His son to earth? Because Jesus had to be like us in order to save us. God's greatest gift came in the fragile body of a baby, but God took the risk because He loves us. Let us be thankful today for such a gift! We need Him very hour.
Luke 2:1-7 Thanks be to God for His indescribable gift! Do not take Him lightly.
Take time from your busy Holiday schedule and thank God for all the wonderful things he has bestowed on us and given us eternal life for accepting His only son
to die on the Cross for us at Calvalry, when He knew no sin at all. He loved us so much that he gave His only son to die for us, so we may be saved for eternity. He is so interested in us that He will go out of His way for us if we only believe on Him and have faith the way He wants. That is His faith and only that kind is the pleasing kind to Him. He wants us to come to Him just the way we are.
Lord said, "Let me do the work I started. It is mine and mine alone. I will take care of it all. It 's all so taken care of. I'm rearranging things to make it better and in more order. The order I want is the accurate arrangement of things and
events I have made for the Church. It is coming very soon. A new and beautiful Church just for my people. Be by my side for me to do this work I have planned for years and years. This is all my ways. No one can do what I do in the spirit for you. More and more things to come and quickly to come."
Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year! This is Lisa Patterson with the Good
News that Jesus Loves you and wants you to come to Him today!
