🗣️💔 The more you understand God’s love the more you grieve for those who do not

Rom 9:2-3; that I have great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. 3 For I could wish that I myself were accursed from Christ for my brethren, my countrymen according to the flesh

…Great sorrow and continual grief in my heart. What insight we gain into the deepest chambers of Paul’s heart? How could someone who believes the rapturous divine reality of Romans 8 have great sorrow and perpetual grief? The answer is actually very simple, but it requires a deeper examination of God’s purposes of salvation. Salvation widens your capacity and measure to love. This truth will bring a cause and effect reality. Since our hearts have swollen with the joy of the Gospel, our hearts now have a greater awareness of what the unsaved are missing and what they are in danger of completely missing. Our sorrow and grief for the lost should be the effect of our salvation and gratitude in Christ (the cause).

Happy Anniversary❤️

Jackie. My love. My wife. My best friend. Mother of my children…

Your beauty inside and out is a constant agent of God’s grace in my life. Your attention to detail has challenged me and continues to teach me to be present. Your benevolent heart inspires me to see the best in everyone. With all the challenges that come with raising a young family, you have wore and continue to wear motherhood like a champion! Our children are extremely blessed to have a mother who models tender sacrificial love. The way you pursue Jesus is a burning witness in our home and to all that know you 🙏❤️‍🔥

Here’s to 10 years of marriage, I’m enraptured by the very thought of spending the rest of my life with you!
