Life According To Laura Leiser

Life is a precious gift from God. We humans long for a purpose for our lives. People who don't know their purpose for living often flounder in uncertainty. Humans need hope and something to believe in. Many believe in temporal pleasures, i.e. money, success, material possessions and the like. They usually only bring temporary satisfaction. When God reaches down and grabs a person's heart and soul, now that is true life. To be touched by the Spirit of God is a miracle in itself. It is for those who seek it. What love, what joy, what peace, to receive His great love. Oh miracle of miracles! What release, to have my sins and heavy burdens lifted, paid for and forgiven. This gift can only be given to those who truly believe and receive the saving work of Jesus on the cross. The reward: new life and life eternal forever in glory. A place in heaven where there is no more death, no more pain, no more sorrow. While living on God's great earth, God calls believers to share the good news of Jesus. I want to share His story, His love, His greatness, His compassion and His goodness. This is what I was called to do. In my heart of hearts, I want to live for Him, and find purpose and fulfillment from God, my Creator. He is my life. To die to my selfishness and live for Christ. My life is a saving work of grace that I daily live, according to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit. Written on 1029/2015

Thank you, Old Buck! I didn't even have to think about what I wanted to say in this one. It just came spilling out! One of the wonderful things about knowing Christ is He gives you the words to say when it is about Him! God bless you, brother in the Lord!
