Greetings: God bless you this day!
Welcome to November!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
God loved us not because of who we are, but who He is.
(Our Daily Bread)

SCRIPTURE:
God demonstrates his own love toward us, in that while we
were still sinners, Christ died for us. Romans 5:8

When trouble comes, one of the questions most asked of God
is: "why me?" on the other side of the coin... have you ever asked
"why did Jesus choose to die for me, a sinner?"  I think the
Thought and Scripture answers that question very well. As of why
we suffer trouble... this world is not our home!
