CREATED


Good morning!

We had a blessed day yesterday. We actually froze to death. We were fishing on the dock and the wind was blowing 20 miles an hour. It doesn't sound windy but it was really windy. I had my only pair of pants on and 3 shirts and a hoodie and a fleece pullover on and I was still cold. It is not supposed to be this cold at the beach yet.

Go figure! Tomorrow should be a sunny day but only 69*. Maybe we will get to sit at the beach sometime. We did go to the beach but it was really windy and cool and the water was pretty cold. Oh my!

I caught 2 out of the 3 little sun perch that we caught while fishing. It was so sweet. They were cute little fishes. Perky little things.

God created the fish of the sea and the birds of the air and wants to use us to fish for people.

Then God blessed them, saying, “Be fruitful and 
multiply. Let the fish fill the seas, and let 
the birds multiply on the earth.”
Genesis 1:22 

Jesus called out to them, “Come, follow me, and 
I will show you how to fish for people!”
Matthew 4:19 

Do we really fish for people like we are supposed to? That is our command: to go into all the world and preach the gospel.

"Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, 
baptizing them in the name of the Father and 
of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching 
them to obey everything I have commanded 
you. And surely I am with you 
always, to the very end of the age.”
Matthew 28:19-20

Let's fish for people and tell them about what Jesus has done for us.
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

  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...
