I have loved you with an everlasting love; I have drawn you with loving kindness. – Jeremiah 31:3

My dad was raised in an extremely poor cotton- picking family, who lost everything they owned during the Great Depression. He said that from the moment he gave his heart to God at the age of seventeen, “I made a quality decision that my children and family would never have to experience the lack that I was raised in.” He searched the scrip-ture to see what God said about him and started seeing himself not as a farmer’s child with no future, but as a child of the Most High God. He rose up and broke the curse of poverty in our family. No wonder my dad held up his bible every service and said, “This is my Bible. I am what it says I am.

I have what it says I have.” Do the same this morning, and you’ll be amazed what can happen.” – Joel Osteen
