    My sheep hear my voice, and I know them, and they follow me. I give eternal life to them. They will never perish, and no one will snatch them out of my hand. My Father who has given them to me is greater than all. No one is able to snatch them out of my Father's hand. John 10:27'29 WEB.The hero of t...

Snow Flakes

  • Printable Version - Share on Facebook - Posted by Dion Todd March 30, 2016 - Filed in Devotional - 10,711 views
    For you formed my inmost being. You knit me together in my mother's womb. I will give thanks to you, for I am fearfully and wonderfully made. Your works are wonderful. My soul knows that very well. My frame wasn't hidden from you, when I was made in secret, woven together in the depths of the earth. Your eyes saw my body. In your book they were all written, the days that were ordained for me, when as yet there were none of them. Psalms 139:13 WEB

    Snow flakes are made up of around 10 quintillion water molecules. That is a 1 followed by 18 zeros. That is why they say that no two snow flakes are identical.

    A typical human body is composed of around 7 Octillion atoms. That is a 7 followed by 27 zeros. Written out, it would look like this: 7,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000,000.

    There is not another person on the earth just like you. Your DNA, your tongue, your eyes, your fingerprints are all unique, and God created you just the way that you are. If you became anyone else, there would no longer be a you.

    You are not an accident nor a mistake. God has a plan and a purpose for your life. You are special and He knows who you are because it was His idea to make you to begin with. Don't spend your life wishing that you were someone else.

    Get in tune with God's plan for your life and become the one that you were meant to be. You can be a mediocre someone else, or you can be a great you just as God intended you to be.

    Prayer: Father, thank You for creating me. Help me make the most of my time here and learn how to be myself. Teach me what I need to know and free me from the bondages that hold me back, in the name of Jesus Christ I pray.

Tyler Velau
Tyler Velau Amen. Pastor Dion. Life is such a gift, a blessing from the Lord. The thing that's too darn hard for some people (like me) to figure out is how best to use this glorious gift positively, to help others. To illuminate for others the truth, that life is precious and a gift. God gifted each one of us with life for a purpose and I think at least part of that purpose is to use our gifts to help others, or in some other positive way that may help people in the future.

Laura B. Martinez
Laura B. Martinez Thank you Pastor Todd for this beautiful reminder that God doesn't make mistakes. Too often we are caught up in the mindset that we want to be someone else and if we were, our lives would be different. We need to love and appreciate who we are and realize that there is not greater love anyone can give us then God's love for us.

Carol Pady
Carol Pady Amen! As I pray for more of Jesus and less of me I find I am walking on the path that He leads me on. It's a wonderful feeling to know you are serving the Almighty God. Everyday is a blessing as i draw closer to Hima nd He shows me who I am and why I have been placed in this situatin. I am finding myself through my Abba Father. I am not born of flesh but born of the spirit and a daughter of the Most High. He teaches me and walks with me daily in this adventure called my life. He gives me the clear direction when I am giving Him all of me. Thank you Jesus, for the gift of becoming an heir of the King!

Sharon Peterson
Sharon Peterson I woke up here in the Sunny Southwest to SNOW.  I always read your article first thing in the morning and it's titled Snowflakes.  Mmmmm Felt led to share these snow scriptures. Proverbs 25:13 NIV Like a snow-cooled drink at harvest time is a trustworthy messenger to the one who sends him; he refreshes the spirit of his master. Isaiah 55:10-11 As the rain and the snow come down from heaven, and do not return to it without watering the earth and making it bud and flourish, so that it yields seed for the sower and bread for the eater,  so is my word that goes out from my mouth: It will not return to me empty, but will accomplish what I desire and achieve the purpose for which I sent it.
