A colorful reminder of His promises.  

-O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O---O-

Black is for my sin. Sin is like dirt, except I can’t wash it off, and I can’t get rid of it. I can try to hide it from others, but I can’t hide it from God.

He sees it all.

Red is for God’s love.   Because of His love, He made a way for my sins to be forgiven, and the penalty to be paid in full. He didn’t let me off, and He didn’t appoint another person to take the burden for my wrongs … God Himself took on the form of a man, and sacrificed that life for me.

Christ died for me.

White  is for forgiveness. When I believed in Him, all my sins were forgiven. All my wrongs - past, present, and future - are washed away and forgotten.

Gold is for the streets of heaven. God promises a place for all who believe in Jesus as the only Savior.

He has gone to prepare a place for me.

Green is for a new life on earth.  I have the assurance of peace with God as well as the peace of God that passes understanding.  My desire is to live a life that is pleasing to the Lord because I am thankful to the One who paid the price for me.

Eternal life begins on earth.

Blue Like the expanse of the blue skies above and the depths of the blue ocean seas, so is the breadth of His love covering the earth.  Jesus spoke the words in John 3:16 before He gave up His life. His sacrifice was voluntary, His motivation was love, and His promise is still valid today.
