MY LORD

Good morning to you!

May God bless you and keep you and fill you with His grace and peace! He can and will do it you know. My husband hurt his back yesterday. I haven't seen him in such pain in a long time. I am constantly asking him what can I do for him. I feel so bad. I know what it is like not to be able to move very well. There are certain things that you need to do that you can't. It is not only frustrating but impossible to do them without lots of pain. 
But you know what? There is hope in Jesus Christ. We have prayed. We prayed for him at church last night and we have full confidence that Jesus Christ will heal him quickly. God has already given us answers to prayers for several things concerning this. God is so good! We will just wait patiently for the rest of his healing. Well, sort of. Patience is not one of our virtues. But this is how we learn to be more patient when in the middle of a storm, so to speak.

Even if we aren't real patient we can trust God to put His healing hand on us. He is the Great Physician, you know! You may wonder why He doesn't heal all of us every time. Well, first of all He loves us so much and He doesn't make bad things happen. He is a good and awesome God of love. He allows things to happen in this world. He gives us free choice. And Adam and Eve made a bad choice which affects us all. And we make bad choices all the time. Therefore, we must pay the price for the decisions we make whether good or bad. In the fallen world we live in, stuff happens. The evil one also wants to take our life away and our family away. Don't let the thief steal from you and win the battle. Fight for what God has given you. Anyway, God uses the bad things that happen for His glory.

The thief does not come except to steal, 
and to kill, and to destroy. I (Jesus) have come 
that they may have life, and that 
they may have it more abundantly.
John 10:10
And my God shall supply all your need 
according to His riches in glory by Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:19
And we know that all things work together for 
good to those who love God, to those who 
are the called according to His purpose.
Romans 8:28
And the Lord will deliver me from every evil 
work and preserve me for His heavenly kingdom. 
To Him be glory forever and ever. Amen!
2 Timothy 4:18

So, the enemy wants to destroy our life and make us miserable. But Jesus wants to give us abundant life. Who are you going to follow and depend on? Well, Jesus is the only one I am going to follow and worship. He is my Lord and Savior and my King of Kings and my Healer and Protector in Whom I put my trust.

Choose to have a happy day!

Choosing Jesus Every Day: Don't Be Lazy

...to those who have been sanctified in Christ Jesus, saints by calling, with all who in every place call on the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, their Lord and ours: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. 1 Corinthians 1:2b-3 Source: https://bible.knowing-jesus.com/topics/Greetings And to us all! I have not written here in 5 months. Forgive me! Life is so busy these days. My husband, Bert, and I thought retirement would be less busy and more, well retired. But that is okay! I believe we are following the path that God wants us on at this time of our lives and that He knows best. So, praise be to our God and Father, and the Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit, for His great guidance! My devotion this morning was very interesting. Bert and I have had this conversation many times when he was still working full time and pastoring. We discussed the fact that our house needs attention. A house will fall if it is not taken care of. And, of course, he was work...

VICTORY

Saturday Good morning to you! The beach is waiting. I can't wait to get away. To rest. To regenerate. To be revived. And sometimes we just need to get away from our daily routine in order to do that. Get away from the phone and stuff like that. Unfortunately, with cell phones, these days we don't get away from the calls. It never fails that we go on vacation and always someone calls about my husband's work, either a person that works for him or someone wanting to get work done. But in all reality that is good. It means that the business is not dead. Praise the Lord for that! The beach does so much for me. I have the best time and the most relaxing time at the beach. I guess it is in my blood. I was born at the beach (a town at the beach). I lived near the beach for about 15 of my growing up years. My grandparents built a house in Malibu, CA overlooking the ocean when I was a kid. (When I find the picture I will post it.) So, I feel like I belong there and I...

DROUGHT

  Good morning to you! Has it been raining where you are? It rained pretty good last night here. We need it. Actually we will take it all just so we aren't in the drought category. I saw on the weather yesterday that a lot of the country is in a severe drought.  Are you in a severe drought spiritually? I hope not but if you are, here are some scriptures that might help. Look to the LORD and his  strength; seek his face always. 1 Chronicles 16:11 The LORD is my strength and  my song; he has become my salvation.  He is my God, and I will praise him,  my father's God, and I will exalt him. Exodus 15:2 So do not fear, for I am with you;  do not be dismayed, for I am your  God. I will strengthen you and help you;  I will uphold you with my righteous right hand.   Isaiah 41:10 Do you not know? Have you not heard?  The LORD is the everlasting God, the  Creator of the ends of the e...
