YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

March 19, 1988

24 years ago today I met the most Incredible person ever. She was Radiant. She had the Shekinah Glory of Moses. (a visible manifestation of God's presence)

She was and is the most Beautiful Person I had ever met. Jana Workman was her name.

Today Jana has eight Children and is the CEO of her home in Temecula Ca. I am so fortunate to have her as my Bride.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

In the same way you are the Bride of Christ.

Do you know that Jesus feels the same way about you x 100,000,000,000....His Love is Infinite.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

Do you know His love for you is unconditional till "death do you part." -- (actually in death we get to meet Him Face to Face)

What is Unconditional? I will let you answer that but it is so True.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

The point is Jesus loves you so much! He had a plan for you before time began.

"Then the LORD said: 'I am making a covenant with you. Before all your people I will do wonders never before done in any nation in all the world. The people you live among will see how awesome is the work that I, the LORD, will do for you' "
(Exodus 34:10, NIV)

The first time I noticed Jana was when I saw her walk across campus at OCC. My heart stopped. I said, " I have to meet her."

Even though it was inconceivable to go out with the coaches daughter, I had to meet her. One event after another kept happening.

Finally the day came and we met!!!

Do you know that God formed you (Psalm 139) and had a plan to meet up with you because He just had to.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

In John 4 Jesus actually changed his normal route because He wanted to meet the Woman at the Well. He gave her "Living Water."

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

Just like I sought out Jana's phone number and changed my "plans" to meet her, Jesus sought you out and found you.
Jana could have said, "No" and I would have been crushed. Lucky for me she said, "yes."

How does Jesus feel when we say, "Yes" to Him?

"Yes Jesus I want to go on a bike ride with you."

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

When Jana accepted the invite for that first bike ride I was overwhelmed with Joy.
When we accept God's invitation He is also Overwhelmed with Joy and Excitement!

Just like I would step in the line of fire and die for Jana and our eight children, Jesus stepped in the line of fire and died for you.

You see no matter what anyone in the family does I love them so much I would die for them.

That's how Jesus feels about you! He went to the Cross willingly so you wouldn't have to.

As a Husband and a Father I would do the same.

Love is the Strongest Asset we have. The Bible says, "Love Conquers All!"

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

Jesus wants to walk with you and hang out with you everyday. He wants more than anything to have Fellowship with you in all your Decisions and Choices in Life.

YOU ARE SO BEAUTIFUL TO CHRIST!

"Greater love has no one than this, that he lay down his life for his friends." John 15:13

Just Go! Leave Everything Behind!
