Food for Thought:
A note from the Founder:
As someone who has gone through my first wedding anniversary alone, I realize how having a card or a call from someone is such a help for the loneliness you feel. I would love to send a card of encouragement to you or someone you may know that has lost their spouse. Please send me the name and address along with the wedding anniversary date for my encouragement database. I will send a card at the anniversary time. When you feel lonely, ask God to give you peace and comfort, He will. He has done wonders for me. God Bless You!

What Cancer Cannot Do
Cancer is so limited...
It cannot cripple Love
It cannot shatter Hope
It cannot corrode Faith
It cannot destroy Peace
It cannot kill Friendship
It cannot suppress Memories
It cannot silence Courage
It cannot invade the Soul
It cannot steal eternal Life
It cannot conquer the Spirit

Would you like to know what the Bible says about what it takes for a person to go to heaven?
F is for FORGIVENESS
We cannot have eternal life and heaven without God’s forgiveness.
“In him (meaning Jesus) we have redemption through His blood, the forgiveness of sins”. Ephesians 1:7a
A is for AVAILABLE
Forgiveness is available. It is available for all.
“For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believes in Him should
Not perish, but have everlasting life”. John 3:16
Forgiveness is available for all, but not automatic.
“Not everyone who says to Me, “Lord, Lord”, shall enter the kingdom of heaven” Matthew 7:21a
I is for IMPOSSIBLE
It is impossible for God to allow sin into heaven.
GOD IS—
LOVE
John 3:16
JUST
“For judgment is without mercy” James 2:13a
MAN IS SINFUL
“For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God”. Romans 3:23
T is for TURN
Turn means repent.
TURN from something—sin and self
“But unless you repent you will all likewise perish”. Luke 13:3b
TURN to Someone; trust Christ only
(The Bible tells us that) “Christ dies for our sins according to the Scriptures; and that He was buried, and that He
rose again the third day according to the Scriptures” 1 Corinthians 15:3b-4
“If you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God has raised Him from the dead,
You will be saved” Romans 10:9
H is for HEAVEN
Heaven is eternal life.
HERE
“I have come that they may have life, and that they may have it more abundantly” John 10:10b
HEREAFTER
“And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive you to Myself; that where I am,
there you may be also” John 14:3
HOW
How can a person have God’s forgiveness, heaven and eternal life and Jesus as personal Savior and Lord?
F.A.I.T.H. (Forsaking All I Trust Him) Romans 10:9
If you understand this outline and would like to receive this forgiveness by trusting Christ as your personal Lord and Savior, invite Jesus into your heart.
Pray—Jesus, I know I am a sinner. Thank you for dying for my sins. Please forgive me. Come into my heart. Change me so I can live for you. In Jesus Name I Pray, Amen
If you have asked Jesus to come into your heart and life, please become involved in a FAITH based church. Talk with the Pastor and let him know about your decision. Read your Bible and attend church services and Sunday School so that you can grow and understand what God tells us in His Word.
God Bless You in Your Personal and Spiritual Life
