Pilate therefore said to Him, "Are You
a king then?" Jesus answered, "You say [rightly] that I am a king.
For this cause I was born, and for this cause I have come into the world, that
I should bear witness to the truth. Everyone who is of the truth hears My
voice." Pilate said to Him, "What is truth?" And when he had
said this, he went out again to the Jews, and said to them, "I find no
fault in Him at all. John 18:37-38 NKJV
Do you want to be free? Free from stress…free
from burdens, cares, worries…free from negative responses…free from broken
relationships…free from sickness and disease? Where could you find such relief?
Could Jesus hold such an answer?
Jesus said…I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one can come to the Father
except through me. John 14:6. He is The
Truth…and the truth will set you free. That is a deep and profound thought.
Would a relationship with Jesus do all that? Breathe in. Breathe out. Yes.
Unload your cares on Him. He is big enough to handle anything. He spent His
life headed for the Cross—to take on the sin of the world. Our mistakes…those
we willfully and unknowingly committed. He hung on the Cross for us.
Jesus said, "Come to me, all of you who
are weary and carry heavy burdens, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon
you. Let me teach you, because I am humble and gentle at heart, and you will
find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy to bear, and the burden I give
you is light." Matthew 11:28-30.
Rest for your very soul. What more could
you want in life. If all is well with your soul…life will be better. It is for
me. Try the Truth. It will set you free.
Prayer
~ Jesus, it is humbling to know how much You had to suffer on the Cross for me.
Thank You.

Have you ever tried to make your own grape
juice?
Homemade Grape Juice
Grapes of your choice – traditionally Concord
grapes are used, but you can choose any
type
Equipment needed:
Colander
Potato
Masher
Large
pan—and of course a stove
Sieve
or cheesecloth
Glass
measuring cup or bowl
In the colander, wash the grapes well to
remove any dirt or chemicals and remove them from the stems. Sing the potato
masher, mash the grapes until the juice starts to come out. Then put the grapes
into your cooking pan and cook on medium heat for 10 minutes, mashing or
stirring them if they begin to clump up. Using a sieve, or the cheesecloth,
strain the grapes, catching the juice in a large cup—like a measuring cup—or bowl.
Refrigerate the juice or pour over ice cubes to serve.
Juicing can also be done in a food mill or
with a juicer designed just for fruits and vegetable. Use the tools you have at
hand and enjoy fresh juice.
