Being like Jesus, completely, immortally >will be new. But when the moment of glory hung in the balance as Jesus was >revived from his death sleep, we too were given the assurance that death >no longer claims us. The only death that really matters is our death to >sin with Jesus in baptism. If we have shared in that death, we will most >certainly share in his resurrection (see Romans 6:1-14). > >MY PRAYER... >Almighty, Most Powerful God. Because of your grace and the resurrection of >Jesus from the dead, I know I will see you face to face. Help me now, >however, to live that resurrected life being more like Jesus today than >any day ever before. Through my Risen Lord I pray. Amen. > >----------- > >Heartlight Daily devotional and prayer are written by Phil Ware of >HEARTLIGHT Magazine, on the web at: ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/vffgmgt_jawdcwdw.html>http://www.heartlight.org >----------- >The NIV Daily Verse is provided by ><http://www.crosswalkmail.com/muuikin_jawdcwdw.html>http://www.zondervan.com > >If you enjoyed this newsletter, forward it on to a friend. > >* Copyright 2005 Salem Web Network and its Content Providers. >All rights reserved. > > > ~~~~ Alan & Ruth Anne Wheeler <da2ofus@...> Proud owners of the following lists: Ladies Fellowship, LF Newsletter, Bread of Life, Christian Drummer and swgCares at: <www.associate.com>
