My Journal for Today: Today’s Our Daily Bread author, Jennifer Benson Schuldt, used the Statue of Christ The Redeemer, overlooking the city of Rio De Janeiro, to illustrate how mankind should look up and focus on Christ as our Redeemer at all times … realizing and trusting that He lives and He will return to claim His bride to be with Him forever. Our Redeemer LIVES!!!

 And when you take in this day’s photo image, … we should be looking up to our Lord, and awaiting that time when He will come again to claim His Bride (yes, that’s you and me!!) and to take us to be with Him forever. As Big Daddy Weave sings, … I am … Redeemed; and as Nicole Mullen sings, My Redeemer Lives!!

And do I sense any here, beside myself, declaring … HALLELUJAH!!! ??

My Prayer Today: Oh Lord, … I believe You are coming, My Savior… My Redeemer; … and as it says in Rev. 22, … “Come soon, Lord Jesus! “ Amen
