My Devotional Journal: Today’s Our Daily Bread Author - Dave Brandon … AT THIS LINK -      … related a story of he and his wife purchasing an odometer for their bicycles from a bike shop and finding it’s use too complicated; so they took it back to the shop who taught them more about it’s use and the ODB author learned that it was really quite simple to use. 

Some people think that being saved requires a lot of work and deep understanding; but as anyone can grasp my story of salvation in the linked song and the simplicity of God’s plan of salvation in the Scriptures shared above, we see that God simply asks for ANYONE to believe in Jesus as Messiah and Lord and be willing to declare that belief to others (see Romans 10:9-13).   ... Done deal!!!  … And I’m so praying that all who read here with me here today have done just that and will see me one day in heaven.   How about it?!  Are you with me?                   

          

My Thanksgiving: … Oh, King Jesus, thank You, … for giving me THE WAY” to be with You in Heaven.  

My Prayer Today: Oh Abba Father, ... King Jesus, ... . I pray, … again today, … that all reading here will join me, …  to declare You as Lord today and to receive Your saving grace from our belief.    … Amen
