I'm In

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God.  Ephesians 2:8-9 NIV

Daily, I proceed with the tasks of routine housework and my enjoyable activities as a senior.

I welcome Team Jesus into my heart. The things I enjoy include a simple life in the slow lane: reading, writing, and crafting for the underprivileged. I have been a Captain Smiley who welcomed friends who planned to visit me. I support them as I support Team Jesus. I’m on the team.

For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God. To me, this verse means we all have gifts from God, such as my gift as a writer. Jesus saved us by coming to earth and dying for our sins. As a Christian, I aim to walk each day in step with my Saviour.

We must all do what we can, while we can, and for as long as we can. This keeps our hearts full of thanks for peaceful days of harmony. Team Jesus is heading for peace, so I’m on that joyful team, along with other Christians and the angels who bless us daily with God’s love.

Belonging to Team Jesus means exploring God’s grace. We can pray for the gospel to be spread, for all the people we love and care for, and for the unity of all Christians.

Keep on praying and spreading God’s grace with your gifts. I’m on Team Jesus. Are you?
