For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. For God did not send his Son into the world to condemn the world. but to save the world through him.
John 3:16-17
God’s power is great for those who believe.
His gift of grace is for all to receive!
Our Lord’s salvation sets us on high,
When we pray from the heart, He hears our cry.
He guides our feet to the path of peace.
His compassion for us will never cease.
If we rely on Him to show us His ways,
His goodness and love will follow our days.
Upon the cross He made a final decree.
Enthroned in blood, Christ set us free!
The Lion of Judah won’t leave our side.
In Him alone, we lovingly abide.
Dwell in Him and flee from sin.
Love one another by the Spirit within.
John 1:12 Yet to all who received him, to those who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God.
John 6:40 For my Father’s will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life, and I will raise him up at the last day.
John 6:69 And we have learned to believe and trust, and [more] we have come to know [surely] that You are the Holy One of God, the Christ (the Anointed One), the Son of the living God. (Amplied Version)

Greetings. Thanks for another great post. To simply believe. Simple childlike faith. It’s amazing how simple the concept is and yet how so many miss it.
Have a great day in Christ.

About 3 years ago I dropped into a black hole – four months of absolute terror. I wanted to end my life, but somehow [Holy Spirit], I reached out to a friend who took me to hospital. I had three visits [hospital] in four months – I actually thought I was in hell. I imagine I was going through some sort of metamorphosis [mental, physical & spiritual]. I had been seeing a therapist [1994] on a regular basis, up until this point in time. I actually thought I would be locked away – but the hospital staff was very supportive [I had no control over my process]. I was released from hospital 16th September 1994, but my fear, pain & shame had only subsided a little. I remember this particular morning waking up [home] & my process would start up again [fear, pain, & shame]. No one could help me, not even my therapist [I was terrified]. I asked Jesus Christ to have mercy on me & forgive me my sins. Slowly, all my fear has dissipated & I believe Jesus delivered me from my “psychological prison.” I am a practicing Catholic & the Holy Spirit is my friend & strength; every day since then has been a joy & blessing. I deserve to go to hell for the life I have led, but Jesus through His sacrifice on the cross, delivered me from my inequities. John 3: 8, John 15: 26, are verses I can relate to, organically. He’s a real person who is with me all the time. I have so much joy & peace in my life, today, after a childhood spent in orphanages [England & Australia]. God LOVES me so much. Fear, pain, & shame, are no longer my constant companions. I just wanted to share my experience with you [Luke 8: 16 – 17].
Peace Be With You
