God Rocks at Restoration!

You've heard of Restoration Hardware? Well God would be first to pop up on Google under restoration, if He had a website. God gives us beauty for ashes, makes all things new, and offers us new mercies every morning. He has a vast department of second, third, fourth, and fifth chances. His desire is to bring us back to him. His desire is to restore us to the rightful place where are God's children, and where He is our father. He desires a deep intimate relationship with us.

God restores us to Himself through Jesus at the cross. God knew we could not do for ourselves what was needed to keep that perfect union with Him, because we cannot live a sinless life, so He sent His only son, Jesus to restore us and to make a way for us to return to Him.

God has restored so much in my life. First... He has brought me into His kingdom by the saving blood of Jesus. He has given me and restored me to eternal life with him. He restored my thinking and delivered me from anorexia. He restored my body to have two beautiful children. He restored my family and children. He restored my friends. He restored my joy and hope. He restores my soul daily!!!

If you need to be restored, and brought back to a place of rest, God is calling to you in the midst of your circumstance to turn to Him for help.
