I NEED THEE

 
 
Good morning to you this fine day!

May all be well with you and yours. I am not feeling very well today. Maybe I am just tired. It was a very busy weekend. I know that my allergies are showing their ugly face today. I also have a ganglion cyst on my left foot below the outside ankle bone and some days it even hurts to walk. Today is one of those days. But I will be just fine. God will take care of me as the hymn goes. 

Sunday at church we had special singers. One couple sang a song called "Beloved, Come Away With Me". It is about Jesus wanting us to come away with Him. Follow Him. Live for Him. Die to self for Him. Love Him. Praise Him. Worship Him. That is what I want to do all the days of my life. I don't do such a good job. I can always to better. And I can't do it without Him. I need to do my part but I still need Jesus as my Pilot. I don't want Him as my co-pilot but I want Him as my Pilot. 
 
I want Jesus to lead me, guide me, and direct me. I need Him to love me, forgive me, and fill me with His presence. I need Him to show me the way to live for Him. I need Him. You need Him. We all need Him. Some of us don't know it but we all need Him. 

Such the words of the hymn  I Need Thee Every Hour.

I need Thee every hour, most gracious Lord;
No tender voice like Thine can peace afford.

Refrain:
 I need Thee, O I need Thee;
Every hour I need Thee;
O bless me now, my Savior,
I come to Thee.

I need Thee every hour, stay Thou nearby;
Temptations lose their power when Thou art nigh.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour, in joy or pain;
Come quickly and abide, or life is in vain.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour; teach me Thy will;
And Thy rich promises in me fulfill.

Refrain

I need Thee every hour, most Holy One;
O make me Thine indeed, Thou blessed Son.

Refrain

 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that 
we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need.
Hebrews 4:16 

May God bless you and keep you today in your time of need.

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

Image
  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...
