Galatians 4:6
 
Dad, Daddy, Pop, and Papa are all familiar names that fathers are given by their children.  Each one is special and coveys a close relationship.  In Galatians 4:6, Paul says believers have a very unique relationship with their heavenly Father.  The Holy Spirit calls out "Abba," and we too have that privilege as God's child if we have accepted Jesus as our Savior.  At the moment anyone turns from their sinful, selfish ways and receive Christ's offer of salvation, redemption happens.  The Father is there to guide, direct, and counsel His child if they but turn to Him.  Even more than our earthly father, our heavenly Father knows us and desires to see us grow and and mature in the faith daily.
On Sunday we celebrate Father's Day.  Give thanks for your earthly father and all he has done for you.  Express your gratitude with more than a shirt or tie.  (Do men even wear them anymore???)  Try writing a note expressing your love and thankfulness for him and his impact in your life.  If he's passed on, reflect back on memories of his lovingkindness shown to you and thank God for him.  Don't forget to spend a few moments meditating also on your heavenly Abba and His gift to us of salvation found through Jesus Christ.

A cheerful heart is good medicine, but a crushed spirit dries up the bones.  Proverbs 17:22
 
Ken Davis is a wise Christian comedian who speaks at colleges, conferences, and churches across our land.  If you've ever heard him, you know that your funny bone will be tickled and laughter will spring forth. He brings the gift of cheer to a weary heart with his ability to poke fun at himself and life about him. Everyone can identify with his adventures, but at the center of his message is the truth that Christ is the real reason for joy in one's heart.
For the last year, there has been a scarcity of laughter and lightheartedness as we've had to deal with the difficult virus situation and its aftermath.  A dose of cheer is needed, and there are some things that can be done to help our crushed spirits not dry up. Healthier choices in spending time in worthwhile projects or service can help refresh the soul. Instead of sitting in front of the TV watching yet another murder focused drama or news documentary about how bad the pandemic is, why not lighten up and choose a funny comedy of years past?  Another healthy decision would be to go out for a walk in a park, forest preserve, or in your own neighborhood to look for signs of spring now that the earth is warming up.  (Seeing that first crocus will bring a smile for sure!) Perhaps you can gather again with close friends (even masked and social distancing) to share funny things that happened during the year of the lockdown.  
God knew that everyone needs to experience joyous moments throughout their life. They bring balance to our mental health. Take time each day to refresh you soul with laughter, because the Lord is the source of an overflowing heart of merriment and joy filled with thanksgiving.

Pray for the lost...

Brothers, my heart's desire and prayer to God for the Israelites is that they may be saved.  Romans 10:1

The Apostle Paul had a burden for his fellow countrymen.  He knew first hand the emptiness of a life without faith in Jesus.  He had previously risen in the ranks of the religious leaders of his day, scoffed at the followers of Christ, and persecuted them relentlessly.  He also recalled his life changing encounter on the Road to Damascus that brought about his salvation (Acts 9:3-5).  The difference in him was dramatic.  After meeting with the risen Lord, his hard heart was softened, and he longed for others to come to Jesus.  He recognized all sinners are in need of the Savior (Romans 3:23)

Paul's heart's desire for the lost, whether they be Jew or Gentile, was to come to a saving faith . It should be ours as well.  Who do you know personally that is far from the Lord?  See them as one who has been led astray and been taken captive by the world's allurements.  They are held in the bondage of sin. They may act as though they have their life together, but inside they are a mess.  It's good to know that God specializes in cleaning up our messiness.  

Be in prayer like Paul for your unsaved family members, friends, and foes.  Don't give up, but continue to be faithful in bringing them before the throne of grace and mercy for God to work in their life.  Be patient and persistent.  Hard hearts can still be softened by the Master's touch in ways you can't imagine, and then salvation comes to set them free from the grip of sin in their life. Hold fast to that truth and continue to be a consistent prayer warrior on their behalf.  Pray for the lost!

Cross necklaces are one of the most popular choices for family members, significant others, and friends because they represent a strong connection to their faith. Whether you're looking for a lovely birthday or anniversary gift or you just want to brighten their day, finding the perfect cross pendant can be a challenge. There are several factors you need to consider when shopping for cross necklaces for women including cross pendants or necklaces. Here are three factors that will help you find the perfect pendant for someone you love.

Size and Weight

The first thing you usually think about when shopping for a cross necklace for men or women is size and weight. The chain needs to be long enough to fit around your loved one's neck and light enough for them to wear comfortably. The size of the cross pendant will have a considerable impact on the weight of the necklace. A large cross will be heavier, while smaller crosses are typically lighter. Also, keep in mind that, based on these factors, men often like larger crosses, and women usually prefer smaller crosses. If you’re purchasing the piece online, the length and weight of the chain and pendant will be included in the product features section. 

Material

Cross necklaces can be made from numerous materials. The most common materials are stainless steel and sterling silver. Wood is incredibly lightweight and adds a natural warmth to Christian jewelry of all kinds. Metal, including gold, silver, stainless steel, pewter and so on, are denser and heavier than wood and offer a cooler vibe. Gemstones add color, energy, and vibrancy to any piece of jewelry.

Material is especially important if your special someone will be wearing the pendant for a long time. Stainless steel chains are known for being lightweight and having smooth edges and provide comfort and durability for the wearer. They’re also the least reactive to sensitive skin. Metal alloys (bronze, brass, pewter, etc.) are made of a mix of different metals, which can cause a reaction, usually in the form or a greenish muddy ring or patches around the neck. Another excellent option is to pair a wooden or stainless steel cross with a rope for the chain. If they’re only going to wear the necklace for a short time or use it as an ornamental piece at home or on their car's rearview mirror, alloy metals, plastics, and acrylic materials are fine.

Style

You can buy a mens cross necklace or women's in a multitude of styles. Some of our most popular styles are silver cross necklaces and black cross necklaces. The options are practically limitless. When searching for a cross necklace for that special someone, consider what would best fit their personal style. Think about what their favorite materials and gemstones are and try to find a cross necklace with those attributes. Flowers, bible quotes, angel wings, etc., can add special meaning to a cross pendant. If you’re having difficulty finding the right cross necklace, opt for a simple, elegant design.
