TRUST IN HIM

Tuesday
 
Good morning to you!
 
May this be a blessed day for you, my precious reader! I am so blessed to have you, for without you this would be pointless.
 
I was reading the scripture this morning about David and Saul from the point of David slaying Goliath. It is in 1 Samuel 17 and I kept reading all the way through chapter 26. I keep thinking about how David trusted God so much that he could even slay a giant and without fear. Then later on he was being chased by Saul. He new by his friend, Jonathan, Saul's son, that Saul was out to kill him. He kept running and hiding where he needed to and also trusted God so much that he just did what he had to do. He had several opportunities to kill Saul in self-defense but chose to follow God's way and not do it.
 
Am I doing what I have to do and trusting God all the way? Am I doing God's will? Do we get afraid so much that we trust ourselves to get through it without seeking God first? Oh, my! Lord forgive us where we fail thee!
 
We do trust God in our own way but maybe not totally His way. That is what we must seek to do, to trust God His way.
 
Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.
Proverbs 3:5-6
 
The Lord is my strength and my shield; my heart trusts in him, and he helps me. My heart leaps for joy, and with my song I praise him.
Psalm 28:7
 
So, in all reality we don't have a choice. We must trust Him if we know Him. Do you know Him? Do you know the Jesus that I know? Do you truly trust in Him not only for your salvation but with your life?
 
If you don't:
 
For he says, “In the time of my favor I heard you, and in the day of salvation I helped you.” I tell you, now is the time of God’s favor, now is the day of salvation.
2 Corinthians 6:2
 
Now is the day of salvation. We don't know what the future holds. But as Christians we know that we need Jesus as our Lord and Savior. If you have not asked Jesus to be that Savior, you need to do it before it is too late. Jesus is coming back. And when He does, if you don't know Him, it will be too late. I sure hope that you want to go to heaven because the alternative will not be pretty.
 
So, give your heart to Jesus today and read His Word, find a church of God's Word, and see how to live for Him. And seek His face and trust Him because your life depends on it.
 
Have a tremendous 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
