From Gary... The sign



OK, here is the picture of the "Blood moon" or "Super-moon". Many are claiming that it is a "sign" that something "big" is going to happen. I am not one of them! If you are looking for a sign in something (anything) today, YOU WILL FIND IT BECAUSE YOU WANT TO FIND IT! 

Consider...

Matthew, Chapter 12 (WEB)

 38  Then certain of the scribes and Pharisees answered, “Teacher, we want to see a sign from you.” 

  39  But he answered them, “An evil and adulterous generation seeks after a sign, but no sign will be given it but the sign of Jonah the prophet.   40  For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of the whale, so will the Son of Man be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth. 


If you want a sign, there is really only one that matters- the resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth, The Christ of God. Because he lives, we can know that there is the hope of heaven for those who obey him in all things. In the meantime, start with the following...

Matthew, Chapter 5 (WEB)

 3  “Blessed are the poor in spirit, 
for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. 
  4  Blessed are those who mourn, 
for they shall be comforted. 
  5  Blessed are the gentle, 
for they shall inherit the earth. 
  6  Blessed are those who hunger and thirst after righteousness, 
for they shall be filled. 
  7  Blessed are the merciful, 
for they shall obtain mercy. 
  8  Blessed are the pure in heart, 
for they shall see God. 
  9  Blessed are the peacemakers, 
for they shall be called children of God. 
  10  Blessed are those who have been persecuted for righteousness’ sake, 
for theirs is the Kingdom of Heaven. 


Your "blessed" life may be the only Bible others will ever read!!!
