TRUST


Good morning!
I started writing this blog last night so I could get ahead of the game. When I went to it this morning I realized I was writing Sunday's blog. It is Saturday. Go figure!

Our church has a float in a Christmas Parade tonight and my husband is talking about parking at our church. Well, I looked at a map and realized that the church is more than 11 blocks from where we think the parade is starting. Since we can't find a parade route online to see the exact route, it is kind of frustrating. We don't really know where exactly it might be. Ugh!

I hate to be a party pooper but I have been having trouble with my legs getting numb and tingly and feeling like they weigh 200 lbs. so how do I walk that far? My husband called me ambulatory. I do not like getting older. It stinks. 

So, oh how I must trust the Lord in all things. That means everything. What if I get half way there and I can't go further? What if I get all the way to the parade and can't walk back? And then standing for two hours watching the parade, my legs might not do that. 

I must not think such things. I must think positive. I must trust the Lord all the way or I will never do anything. And I don't want to get that way where I don't trust the Lord enough to help me in every situation. And you must do that also.

Offer right sacrifices and trust in the LORD.
Psalm 4:5

Some trust in chariots and some in horses, but 
we trust in the name of the LORD our God.
Psalm 20:7

Commit your way to the LORD; 
trust in him and he will do this:
Psalm 37:5

I will say of the LORD, "He is my refuge and 
my fortress, my God, in whom I trust."

The Book of Psalms is full of scripture about trust in the Lord. How can we go wrong in trusting the Lord. For He is good and His love endures forever.
Let us trust in the Lord always!

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...
