I Love that I am a Christian


I love that I am a Christian. I say this all the time, because no matter how tough it gets, no matter how impossible a situation seems, no matter how alone I feel, I can turn to Jesus Christ and by His mercy, He lightens a burden, He makes the impossible possible or reminds me that nothing is impossible for Him, and Jesus reminds me that I am never alone and He will put scriptures to my mind that encourage me, strengthen me, and build my faith. Or the Holy Spirit fills me with His power and I pray in a language only God knows, on my behalf. Or God will have a friend send me an encouraging text unexpectedly that speaks directly to the situation I'm in. I love being a Christian because I know the ending, I - along with other Christians - win. I am given a Bible that tells me the beginning and the end. I am given fellowship with the Father, the Son, and Holy Spirit and with His sons and daugthers. I am given a purpose. I know why I exist and I know Who I live for. I am endued with the Power from on high. I am more than a conquerer. Death and hell no longer have power over me. Have I mentioned that I love that I am a Christian? And what I love is that I serve the only true and living God and He offers this amazing gift to everyone who will believe and receive it and follow Jesus all their lives. Yes, I love that I am a Christian. 

John 3:16
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.
