Christian - forgiven - grateful

Welcome! My name is Richard Templin Hancock and I am a senior citizen who has found great peace in his old age in the forgiveness that Jesus Christ offers to sinners. I enjoy reading my Bible and recording short Devotional podcasts with the aim to encourage us all to have faith in God and follow His Son Jesus Christ every day.
I hope the following blog posts will be an encouragement to you:

Fear God be blessed

This is Follow Jesus Radio encouraging you to have faith in Jesus Christ and follow him daily. The title of this devotional thought is: Fear God be blessed.

Proverbs 14:27 BSB
The fear of the LORD is a fountain of life, turning a man from the snares of death.

I have a great idea. Let's make it our aim to fear our God today. I'm talking about the God of Abraham, Isaac, and Jacob, the God who sent Messiah Jesus. Looking up to God and fixing our love and devotion on Him brings the daily blessing of His company! What a happy situation! I want to be happy today, how about you?

Fixing our minds on God and fearing Him is a fountain of life. Imagine one of those big fountains you see in some cities, with all that water gushing up and about. On hot summer days, you can see kids stepping into those fountains to find refreshment and cool down from the heat. In the same way, we go to God and experience the refreshing blessing of being filled fresh and anew with His Holy Spirit. A well, a spring as it were, will gush out from us to bless others!

Yes, let's fear God today. What a happy day that will be.

That's it for this podcast. Follow Jesus Radio is here 24 hours a day to encourage you to have faith in Jesus Christ and follow Him daily. Remember, Jesus loves you and is just a prayer away.
