TALKING TO GOD


 Good morning!
I was sitting there on the computer last night and it just hit me that I never posted my blog yesterday. Oh my! I am so embarrassed. I had such a busy day and had to leave fairly early in the morning, well, I guess 10:30 isn't really that early, but for me it is. This morning I have to leave at 9 AM. I will do better at posting this. 

I am telling you, some days I think if my head wasn't attached I would forget it. Leave it to me. But God is with me and is very great and awesome and He won't let me forget my head. Maybe some other things that don't really matter, but not my head. 

Maybe I need to pray more. Focus on Jesus more. Do everything more.

Ask God

Whatever you ask in my name, this I 
 will do, that the Father may be 
glorified in the Son. If you ask me 
 anything in my name, I will do it.
John 14:13-14 

Pray in Faith

Is anyone among you sick? Let him call for 
the elders of the church, and let them pray 
over him, anointing him with oil in the name 
of the Lord. And the prayer of faith will save 
the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise 
him up. And if he has committed sins, he will 
be forgiven. Therefore, confess your sins to 
one another and pray for one another, that 
you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous 
 person has great power as it is working.
James 5:14-16

Always & with Thanksgiving

Do not be anxious about anything, 
but in everything by prayer and supplication 
with thanksgiving let your requests be 
made known to God. And the peace of 
God, which surpasses all understanding, 
will guard your hearts and your 
minds in Christ Jesus.
Philippians 4:6-7

Don’t pray when you feel like it. Have an appointment with the Lord and keep it. A man is powerful on his knees. ~ Corrie Ten Boom

I agree with that. We can never pray too much. We can never pray enough. God wants to hear from us. Remember if the Son of God needed to spend time on His knees talking to God, then surely we need to do the same if not more.

Have a blessed 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

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...
