“Everything that goes into a life of pleasing God has been miraculously given to us by getting to know, personally and intimately, the One who invited us to God.” The best invitation we ever received! 2 Peter 1:3 The Message
Are you living The Invitation…?
Before you could speak … before you did anything good or bad … before you ever wondered if God could love you (the real you that no one sees) … You were God’s choice. It was an inviting choice by the Inviting One to personally and intimately know Him and the pleasing life He wants you to live. He knows that you could never live this life in your own strength. You’ve tried over and over unsuccessfully. The best invitation you will ever receive is the one that invites you to place your life on firm footing by placing in the life of our Master and Savior Jesus Christ. That is the only life that is pleasing to God. It is not a narrow life or a limiting life. It is a wide open life in God’s kingdom. It is a wide open invitation. It only takes a moment…
“So, friends, confirm God’s invitation to you, his choice of you. Don’t put it off; do it now. Do this, and you’ll have your life on a firm footing, the streets paved and the way wide open into the eternal kingdom of our Master and Savior Jesus Christ.” 2 Peter 1:10-11 The Message
