I CAN DO IT

Wednesday
 
 
 
Good morning!

How are you today? I pray that all is well with you. It is with me. Yesterday was a great day. I feel like I got a lot accomplished. Although, I usually work all day (chores, etc.) and feel like I still didn't do enough. I am very critical of myself but I am trying to do better. I don't really have to do it all in one day. 

There is so much coming up in the next few months that I know it will be very busy. And the holidays will be here before we know it. Once September is here Christmas always seems to come very fast. I pray that I can  get everything done that I need to do without getting stressed. 
 
This Bible verse gives some peace that God will help us do what we need to.
 
 I can do all things through Christ who strengthens me.
Philippians 4:13

God is going to give us the strength to do what ever it is we need to do, through Christ. We can take a scripture and repeat it over and over until we truly believe it and it is in our hearts. We can do it with any scripture. 

For your name’s sake, Lord, preserve my life;
    in your righteousness, bring me out of trouble. 
 In your unfailing love, silence my enemies;
    destroy all my foes,
    for I am your servant.
Psalm 143:11-12 
 
I will exalt you, my God the King;
    I will praise your name for ever and ever.
Every day I will praise you
    and extol your name for ever and ever.
Great is the Lord and most worthy of praise;
    his greatness no one can fathom.
One generation commends your works to another;
    they tell of your mighty acts.
Psalm 145:1-4 

Read the whole chapter of Psalm 145. It can really lift you up. Reading verses out loud and repeating them put them into your heart also.

I have hidden your word in my heart
 that I might not sin against you.
Psalm 119:11 

Let God give you the strength to do anything through Christ as well as put His Word in your heart. He is worth it!

Have a marvelous Wednesday!

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

KNOW HIM

I took this picture yesterday. It was amazing!   Good morning to you on  this blessed and chilly day! May God fill you with His love and His Spirit. He is awesome! He is miraculous! He is the great I AM! He is the Alpha and the Omega, the First and the Last! He is our Lord of lords and King of kings. He is my Savior! Is He yours? Jesus is coming back soon. Do you know Him? I am going to share this video with you again. I shared it once before and it is amazing. We can never hear it enough. And if you don't know Jesus as your Lord and Savior, listen very carefully. That's My King Dr. S.M. Lockridge This video says it all! If you don't know Him, get to know Him. Read God's Word. Fellowship with other believers in church and out of church. Talk to Him in prayer.  Now I am not saying that believers are perfect but far from it. We are all on a journey to know Him better. Churches are not a hotel for saints, but a hospital

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
