Journal notes on John 21-THE RESURRECTED KING MAKES A BREAKFAST BARBECUE

In my study this morning, I am taken by the fact that food is an important element in fellowship and the showing of love. Jesus displayed this kind of fellowship to His disciples after He rose from the dead. Amazing how he was still looking out for his disciples, nurturing them and providing for them because God is love!
Inherent in Jesus's nature is the desire to love and provide for His followers. He spoke words to the disciples that were deep and profound, thereby feeding their minds with the substance of what was to come. Enabling them with His spoken word and more or less instructing them and sending them forth. 
He even made them a barbecue breakfast.
What a God!
What a Saviour!

Hebrews 10:38-39 inspired- To whom we belong

Hebrews 10:38-39
"But my righteous one will live by faith. And I take no pleasure in the one who shrinks back." 39 But we do not belong to those who shrink back and are destroyed, but to those who have faith and are saved.



To whom we belong
Are those who have faith and are saved
We do not shrink back
We stand firm
We believe, we affirm
Every truth in your word
We stand firm
We believe that it is done
We do not shrink back
Because of the one
To whom we belong

To a spacious place



I am grateful Lord
For more things than I can say
You are faithful and loving to me
Breaking down mountains
Raising up valleys
Delivering your loving power to me
I see you in a myriad ways
From the spectacular to the mundane
Lord you reveal yourself
And I am strong in you
I walk tall in victory
Because you are loving
Because you are faithful
Against all odds you have brought me
To a spacious place
