Explore the Treasure Within


I read a story about a man who lived in a tiny apartment and died in extreme poverty. At one point in his life, he had even been homeless, living on the streets. This man never had any successes to speak of nor any noted victories. He lived and died as just another face in the crowd.

After the funeral, some family members went to his little run-down apartment to clear out his belongings. They found a painting hanging on the wall so they decided to sell it at a garage sale. The woman who bought the picture took it to a local art gallery for an appraisal and was shocked to discover that the painting was extremely valuable. The piece of art that hung for so many years in a little run-down apartment was painted by a famous artist who lived in the early 1800s. The woman decided to auction off that painting and ended up selling it for several million dollars.

Just think how that poor man's life might have changed if he had known the value of what he possessed. He was a multimillionaire and didn't even know it. So many people live like that today with priceless treasure inside, and they don't even know it. Sometimes we have to explore what's on the inside of us to really understand what we have.

I encourage you today; don't settle for living a mediocre existence. You are a masterpiece created by the most famous Artist of all. Every morning when you get out of bed, remind yourself, I am important. I am handpicked by God, and I am a person of extreme value and significance.

For we are God's masterpiece…(Ephesians 2:10, NLT).

JESUS is On Your Side!

Whatever your plans are, keep believing that Jesus is always on your side. And He is always there to take care of you no matter what. If ever you're going thru a rough time. DO NOT WORRY. Because that's only temporary. Jesus will pull you through. Because He loves you so. Amen!

Flipping the Switch

Give thanks to the Lord, for he is good; his love endures forever.
—Psalm 118:1

When you thank Me for the difficult things in your life, suddenly they are no longer as difficult. How this works is a mystery.

But if you will give Me thanks—even for the things that make you sad or upset—then I will give you Joy. And you can have that Joy no matter what is happening.

For those who don’t know Me well, thanking Me for heartaches and hardships seems impossible—even silly. But if you step out in faith and thank Me, you will be blessed. You may still be in the same yucky situation, but it will be as if someone flipped on the light switch in a dark room. You’ll see things in the Light of My Presence—from My point of view—and realize that you aren’t alone. My Presence will make your troubles not so troublesome.

Love,
Jesus

The Best Gifts Ever (JesusCallingForKids iphone/ipad app)

The Best Gifts Ever

Jesus himself stood among them and said to them, “Peace be with you.”
—Luke 24:36

Think about the best gift you’ve ever gotten: that new computer, the cool video game, the bike you kept seeing in the store. They’re all nice gifts.

But I have much better gifts for you. Gifts of supernatural proportions! They are My Presence and My Peace. These gifts never get holes in them. They never need new batteries. And they never go out of style.

They also can’t be purchased at the local store or off the Internet. There is only one way to get these gifts. And that is to come to Me with a thankful, trusting heart.

I created you to glorify Me. This means you can never spend too much time praising and thanking Me. Praising Me says you know that I am God and you trust My control over your life. Thanking Me opens your heart to receive My Presence and My Peace—the richest, most awesome gifts of all.

How to believe in Jesus

It is not easy to believe in Jesus because you have not seen Him in person yet. But I tell you,
You can see Him in the Bible.

In the Bible, He is alive, conversing with you and telling all His promises to you.

You don't need to feel Him.
You just need to look through His words.

Just talk to Him through your heart.
...and faith...effortlessly will fill you in.

Yes. That easy.

In Jesus, you don't need to struggle.

You just need to rest.

Amen.

Instagram sooooo mean???

I don't know what went wrong with my @Jesusdailyphoto instagram account that suddenly without warning or notification instagram disabled that account.

That account got 13,000 Jesus followers already and have posted my most favorite ,inspiring and beautiful photos not only about Jesus but reality of our daily lives as well.

I have poured my deepest thoughts in there.

Tsk. So sad. Just because it's free and public some social network giant could just take it away like that.

Yes. They may have the power to do so. Let them be.

As for me, I still have this blog
and I think, it's better to stick in here.

It's safer to stick in here.

So from now on,
I'm gonna slowly repost my @Jesusdailyphotos in here.

I might have to start from scratch but no worries. It's all for Jesus anyway!

And...surely..

Jesus.... His spirit in me will guide me.

I believe there are always new things to share about.
I am so blessed by them.

:)

Still, I'm hoping that instagram will return me back that account.
Because I know a lot of believers needed it. Praying...and talking to Jesus now.


Jesus, I give it all up to you.

Think you got a job to do in here.

Amen.
