Yesterday evening we were practicing cause effect sentences in my class. Being the light hearted comedian I can tend to be while teaching, I wrote some sentences for them.
‘The teacher cooked food but the students did not eat because it was burned.’
‘The teacher cooked food but the students did not eat because they did not want to get sick.’
‘The teacher cooked but the students did not eat because they know the teach is a bad cook.’
My students laughed as I wrote the sentences. 🙂
So this morning cause effect is on my mind regarding the cause effect of Jesus coming the first time to become our Savior. John 3:16 uses for to show cause effect.
“For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.”
God’s love for us why Jesus came.
I love the truth of Ephesians 2:10:
For we are God’s handiwork, created in Christ Jesus to do good works, which God prepared in advance for us to do.
What precedes it is that we are saved through faith in Jesus by God’s grace. Because of that, we become God’s handiwork. God equips us to live out our Christian faith and to serve him.
What cause effect verse comes to your mind from the bible?
Thank you for reading. God Bless.

What comes to my mind is Jonah 1:1-6 NIV
The word of the Lord came to Jonah son of Amittai: “Go to the great city of Nineveh and preach against it, because its wickedness has come up before me.”
But Jonah ran away from the Lord and headed for Tarshish. He went down to Joppa, where he found a ship bound for that port. After paying the fare, he went aboard and sailed for Tarshish to flee from the Lord.
Then the Lord sent a great wind on the sea, and such a violent storm arose that the ship threatened to break up.
Not as inspiring as the verses you chose, but it’s what we’re studying at our church at the moment 😊 And for me it’s been good to learn the cause and effect of following God, but ALSO the cause and effect of disobeying God! I hope you have a wonderful Wednesday!
We can learn much from the examples of those who disobeyed God
I love Ephesians 2:4-5 “But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved.”
Love those verse too. I love the descriptor for God- rich in mercy
A mild answer turns back wrath, but a harsh word stirs up anger. Proverbs 15:1
Kindness is always good. 🙂🌺
Love that verse as a great contrast
Your comments are as enjoyable a read as your blog!
God bless you!
John 3:16 comes to mind for me too, this is a great thought provoker…I’ll be thinking about this throughout my day!!
It will be interesting to see what thoughts come to mind for you little sister
Ephesians 2:4-6 came to mind and it’s funny because as I was going through the comments just now I see someone else thought of those verses too! Love when God connects things in such ways!!
4 But because of his great love for us, God, who is rich in mercy, 5 made us alive with Christ even when we were dead in transgressions—it is by grace you have been saved. 6 And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus,
Wonderful verses 🙂
