In church today
our affirmation of faith began,
“God’s sovereign love is a mystery…”

God’s sovereign love
is a mystery beyond the reach
of the human mind.

Human thought ascribes to God
superlatives of
power,
wisdom,
and goodness.

But God reveals His love
in Jesus Christ
by showing power
in the form of a servant.

God reveals
His love
in the folly
of the cross.

He reveals
His love
and His goodness
in receiving sinners.

The power of God’s love
to transform the world
discloses that the Lord
is Creator of all things.

He made all things
to serve the purpose
of His Love.
You and I serve His purpose!

God bless our dear daughter
who serves with love
every day.
I am so grateful
for her love.
It is no mystery!

The mystery for me
is why Jesus
blesses me so richly
with His love
and the love of
friends and family
while others
seem without.

when I asked for
“Children in Poverty”
Guess what?
All those “without”
are not brown skinned!

Set aside your prejudices.
Look around you.
There are people
right in your town or city,
Maybe in your neighborhood,
who are “without”.

Love is a mystery.
Poverty knows no color.
Hugs know no color.
Generosity is multi-colored.

God’s sovereign love
is no mystery.
It is there for all.
It is a gift.
Unwrap it!!
And then share!!!

Now, with whom
will you share your
gift of love?

I send my love to you today.
It’s what the world needs…
More love!
Don’t you agree?

God bless you!
Love,
JanBeek
