Back in the USA. . .

. . . and it always feels great to be here! What a great place to live, the U.S.A. We are so blessed here. I'm sitting here in a terminal at JFK looking out over the bay leading into Manhatten. Ellis Island is just across the horizon and Lady Liberty stands very tall above the waters welcoming everyone to come on in. Some will come and complain, while others will take the opportunity and step out on faith taking advantage of that opportunity.
In the same way, in a land further away, stood another very tall, cruel place of sacrifice by the greatest Liberty maker of all, the Lord Jesus Christ. He too invites everyone to come on in to His eternal life. . . "whosoever will" . Some will come in and complain, while others will take the opportunity and step out on faith taking advantage of that opportunity to not only live in that wonderful world of God's grace, but also help others do the same.
"Great is thy faithfulness, O' God my Father; morning by morning new mercies I see".
