THE MANSION


Good morning to you!
May God's blessings be upon you this day that the Lord has made. We will be on our way home today. What a blessed vacation! We had a great time. I wish I could stay. As a matter of fact, I asked my husband today if I could stay and he said that sure I could if I could find a place to stay that didn't cost a thing. And that my food would be free and I wouldn't need a car. How about that?

But it is back to reality today. That is the only problem, you have to go back to the daily grind. But that is okay. I miss my bed and my home and my dog. I guess that if you vacationed all the time, it wouldn't be so special anymore. So, I will just have to wait until the next vacation. I will probably go to my dad's in a few weeks. Now I have something to look forward to.

We all have something to look forward to and that is the mansion that Jesus is preparing for us in heaven. I hope that my mansion is on the beach. But I will take whatever God has prepared for me because I know it will be perfect and the streets will be made of gold. How awesome is that!

“Let not your heart be troubled; you believe in God,
 believe also in Me. In My Father’s house are many 
mansions; if it were not so, I would have told you. 
I go to prepare a place for you. And if I go and 
prepare a place for you, I will come again and
 receive you to Myself; that where 
I am, there you may be also."
John 14:1-3 

So, one day soon that mansion will be ready and we will live with Jesus for eternity. I can't wait! How about you?

Have a blessed and awesome 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...
