LISTEN TO GOD

Saturday

 

Good morning!

I am at a Ladies Conference that started last night. I am expecting today to be awesome. Can't wait! The speaker talked about how our life's story has a purpose and holds a place in God's story. And we will hear more today. Praise the Lord!

I have been coming here to this conference for close to 15 years I believe and it gets better every year. I have heard people say that they don't like conferences of this sort because they don't like sitting there all day or half a day or whatever. Well, my feelings on this are that it is not about us, it is about Jesus. And if I can go to a Christian conference somewhere that leads me closer to Jesus, that is what I am going to do. I drove 8 hours to Pensacola in the spring to meet my daughter for a conference and I am doing it again next spring whether she can go or not. Especially since I already bought two tickets.

I am very, very far from perfect. And I can't go to every Christian conference in the country. But I can go to the ones that I feel God calling me to attend. And I know He will teach me something at each and every one.

Remember in Jesus day when He would preach in the temple people would listen all day to what He had to said. Since Jesus is in Heaven sitting at the right hand of God, our Father, we can't sit and listen to Him in the flesh. So, we can sit and listen to His people teach about Him.

We need Jesus and we need to know Him. Not only to save us but also to show us how to live and how to love. We need Jesus to show us what it means to act justly, love mercy and walk humbly with our God.
 
 He has shown you, O mortal, what is good.
    And what does the Lord require of you?
To act justly and to love mercy
    and to walk humbly with your God.
Micah 6:8

So, why wait until tomorrow. Let's do these things today and just maybe go to a conference and sit under the teaching of Jesus on this earth. He's worth it!

Have a fabulous 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

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
