About Me

My photo
I am a husband and a father and I pray that I will continue to look more like Christ to my wife and children each day. I pray that all that I do will be used to give glory to the Father and Christ through the Holy Spirit.

This Wonderful Gift

We read The Jesus Storybook Bible by Sally Lloyd-Jones to our kids. It is awesome. Every story points to Christ. The book ends with a paraphrase of John 1:12-13. I wanted to share it.

For anyone who says yes to Jesus
For anyone who believes what Jesus said
For anyone who will just reach out to take it
Then God will give them this wonderful gift:

To be born into
A whole new life
To be who they really are
Who God always made them to be--
Their own true selves--
God's Dear
Child.
--Sally Lloyd-Jones
