Favorites

     One of my favorite daughters is getting married next summer. She will choose her favorite people to be there, her favorite friends to stand by her side (including her favorite sister) and pick some of her favorite songs for the day. God is so good to give us these celebrations that remain forever etched in our hearts as some of our “favorite” days!

     What are some of your favorite days? Most will include the people we love. Our wedding, the birth of our babies and grandbabies, the weddings and celebrations of our friends and families, favorite vacations and favorite places. One of my favorite places is Lake Nokomis. I never tire of taking walks, going to the beach and reliving one favorite moment after another, from childhood until today.

     Along with Jesus being our favorite, we can choose the day we accepted Him as Savior as our very favorite moment. This is the moment we began our journey with Him, the moment the Holy Spirit entered, the day we knew we are a child of God, the moment we knew for a fact, we will be in eternity with God!

And you also were included in Christ when you heard the message of truth, the Gospel of your salvation. When you believed, you were marked with a seal, the promised Holy Spirit. Ephesians 1:13

     The very best moment, a moment to be savored, our utmost favorite, the day of our salvation.

Jesus,

Thank You for saving us from death, from living for eternity apart from You. We pray for this moment to be shared with others, that they, too, may believe in the one true God.

Amen
