God loves you and has a wonderful PLAN for your life.
For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have
everlasting life. John 3:16
The PROBLEM is we SIN.For all have sinned and fall short of the
glory of God. Romans 3:23
The PENALTY for sin is SEPARATION from God.
For the wages of sin is death, but the gift of God is eternal life in Christ Jesus our Lord. Romans 6:23
The PROVISION is our SAVIOR, Jesus Christ.For I delivered to you first of all that which I also received:
that Christ died for our sins according to the Scriptures, and that He was buried, and that He rose again the third day
according to the Scriptures, and that He was seen...1 Corinthians 15:3–5a
The PROMISE is SALVATION.So they said, “Believe on the Lord Jesus Christ,
and you will be saved.” Acts 16:31
God's Gift to You

That in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus. For by grace you have been saved
through faith, and that not of yourselves; it is the gift of God, not of works, lest anyone should boast. For we are His workmanship, created in Christ Jesus for
good works, which God prepared beforehand that we should walk in them.
