Selfless Love- Closer to God Newsletter

Do you want to make the world a better place? You've come to the right place, as today's verse shows us how to eliminate selfishness from our lives and assist others. My goal has always been to bring you Closer to God by simply making His word a part of your life. If we truly "live" by His Word rather than just reading it, extraordinary things will happen. You'll find words written long ago hold even more relevance in the world we live in today. The Apostle Paul wrote today's verse to those...

It's great you're here today, learning what God's Word can do for you. If you need a message of hope in your life, today's passage will speak to you. You may have tried various methods to find help and inspiration in life but keep falling short. It's ok. The world surrounding us doesn't openly promote turning to scripture to find what we need. It took me a long time to realize that self-help books and Google searches do not possess the lasting power that God's Word has for my life and future....

Do you know when you take a moment and meditate on just one verse of scripture, your whole day can turn around? Yes, it can happen. Today, for instance. There are times in life when situations become bleak. Things may go differently than planned, or you might receive bad news. It can feel as if your life is growing darker. This happens to all of us at some time in our lives. You feel like giving up because it seems like the odds are against you. I've been there countless times, and that's...

Let's spend a moment today to show you how God's Word in scripture can make a difference in your life. I used to seek quotes from influential people and self-help books for support and inspiration, but they were never satisfying or lasting. One day, I noticed my Bible on a shelf and recalled that during my childhood, it was all I needed. What happened? Well, life happened. We grow older and get influenced and distracted by the media, culture, and surroundings. I needed a change. I needed to...

Thank you for taking time today to listen to God's Word. I firmly believe that your day and life will be transformed when you immerse yourself in scripture and reflect on its life-changing guidance. Have you ever felt like you are being 'called' to do something greater? This feeling is not unique to a few, but a universal experience that we all share. It could be reaching out to help others in need or support a cause, volunteering your time, or spreading the Good News of God's love for...

Thank you for being here today. It's incredible how learning God's Word more intimately is the key to a better life. In my own experience, even though I had a decent spiritual upbringing, as I grew older, I found myself straying from the life God intended for me. The world instead taught me to "go it alone" with my decision-making and live with the consequences. I found myself failing way more than succeeding. But.... it doesn't have to be that way at all. Through years of frustration and bad...

Let's take some time and discover how God's Word can make a difference in your life. I'm living proof that everything improves once you start your day with scripture as your guide. My goal is to bring His Word to you and show how you can apply it to your life. Today's verse poses a question we need to ask ourselves frequently. How often have we let other people influence us and change our minds and attitudes? When we need help or approval, where do we turn? Human beings? Or our loving Father...

I'm deeply grateful for your presence here today. It's truly inspiring to see you making the conscious effort to prioritize the Word of God in your life. I hope today's message brings you Closer to God. Let me share a personal experience. There was a time when I felt like I was running on empty, with no strength or inspiration left.
