Genesis 1:1 In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth.

You may be starting to ask “Who is this God that loves me?”

Our bibles tell us that He is the creator of everything; which is not what you may be told at school because scientists will try to convince you that we are related to monkeys.

Personally I would rather believe that there is a God out there that is so AWESOME that He was able to create everything just because He wanted a place for us to live and that He also created those monkeys and even those scientists…

That choice should be yours to make and not a decision that someone else forces you to “think”…

Matthew 4:4 Jesus answered, “It is written: ‘Man shall not live on bread alone, but on every word that comes from the mouth of God.’”

One thing we all get carried away with is the things we have or the things we want in life. They may be the latest iPhone, tablet or bike and we may really want them; but we must remember that those things are not what give us life.

Yes we can have a really good time with them whilst they work and whilst we have them, but when they disappear, so does our joy. God wants us to know a much better joy in our life, one that He gives us which He shows us through the bible, one that will last with us forever. We may not be able to ride it or play games on it, but it is real and everlasting!

Luke 17:33 Whoever tries to keep their life will lose it, and whoever loses their life will preserve it

“I’m all right! It’s everyone else that’s got the problem!”

How many times have you heard yourself say or think that? Or how many times have you tried hard to do something right and fallen flat on your face? Life can be hard, difficult and even seem like it is impossible at times. So why are we telling you this verse today?

God wants us to see that if we allow Him to guide us, things will change for the better. It may still be difficult and we may not like the changes, but God is the One who knows what is best for us; we just have to listen and learn from Him…
