You may have heard this before, but I want to ask you: Do you really believe it? Jeremiah 29:11 (NIV) says, “’For I know the plans I have for you,’ declares the Lord, ‘plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.’” And Ephesians 2:10 tells us, “We are God’s handi- work, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God pre- pared in advance for us to do.” These verses clearly state that God wants to bless us with good plans, and He will prepare us to do the good works He’s destined us to do. So why are so many people settling for less than what God promises us as His children? The truth is your entire life doesn’t have to be ruined be- cause someone hurt you years ago, or last week, or even yes- terday. Even if you’ve done terrible things, you can move forward in God’s good plans for you. Regret is useless! We need to be truly sorry for the things we’ve done, but we need to re- ceive God’s love and forgive- ness and go on. If your life is not what God has declared it can be in His Word, I have good news for you today. You can make a decision to seek God, trust Him and His Word more than your past ex- periences, your present circum- Marco Giarrusso 1928-2017 Marco V.

It’s so important for us to get this…to understand that God wants to heal the wounds in our soul. Because when you’re not living up to your true potential, you’re not happy or satisfi ed. God created us for so much more than this! After Jonathan died, David wanted to honor his covenant with him and he said in verse 1, “Is there anyone still left of the house of Saul to whom I can show kindness for Jonathan’s sake?” (NIV). Ziba, a servant of Saul’s household, told David about Mephibosheth, saying he was lame in both feet, living in Lo Debar. David summoned Mephi- bosheth and said, “I will surely show you kindness for the sake of your father Jonathan. I will restore to you all the land that belonged to your grandfather Death Notice Hazel M. Vaught, 100, of Cottage Grove, OR, passed away on October 21, 2017.

I came to get what’s mine!” But instead, he let his imperfections and circumstances defi ne him; he was no better than a dead dog in his own mind. But because of David’s faith- fulness to his covenant with Jonathan, Mephibosheth lived the rest of his life in the land of his father and grandfather, and he always ate at the king’s ta- ble—even though he was lame in both feet. As born-again believers in Christ, we have a covenant with God. Jesus died to give us ev- erything God wants us to have: new life, righteousness, peace and joy.
