[Faith-talk] Good Night Message for Saturday, April 7

[Paul]

Hello and good evening to those of you living in North America.  Perhaps some of you living on the East Coast have already retired, in which case you'll read this message in the morning.  For some of you, you're still probably going through emails.  At any rate I trust that you will have a peaceful and restful sleep this night, by God's matchless grace and His providential care.  The Lord this evening led me to Psalm 145:8 which, in Today's English Version, is rendered thus: "The Lord is loving and merciful, slow to become angry and full of constant love." Now you may ask, "What does this has to do with the resurrection?" Simply that Jesus longs for us to be with Him.  After all, if He didn't love us, would He have had that desire? I think that, no matter how far we have strayed, He would call us back to Him.  I personally needed that one tonight as I reflect on a past incident in my life, something that I'd rather not write about.  But praise God for His love! And praise Him that I, along with everyone else here and countless millions of like-minded believers, will be with Him in Heaven and again on earth.

And now good night or, if you will read this in the morning, good morning.  Have a wonderful, peaceful and restful sleep.  Your Christian brother, Paul Barnabas
