GIVE TO HIM



Good morning!

As I said yesterday, I am having trouble with this blog. The formatting for it has just gone bonkers and I can't fix it. I like things to be in order and look nice. So, I guess we will just have to live with it the way it is until the website fixes it. So, please bear with me. 

We still have snow at our house and our BBQ cover that blew off in the storm is still glued to the deck with ice and snow. My husband got it for Christmas and if we pull it up then it will tear, so I guess it will stay there until the snow and ice melt. Maybe today. 


May God bless you with his special favor and wonderful peace as you come to know Jesus, our God and Lord, better and better. 2 Peter 1:2  How many of us don't want God's special favor and wonderful peace? I know that I sure do. And I want to know Him so much better. I just wanted to share with you today some scriptures on God's blessings. Do we truly realize where our blessings come from? Or do we even realize that everything good in our lives are blessings from God? His help, strength, and the holding up of us are blessings from Him.   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 Give, and it will be given to you. Good measure, pressed down, shaken together, running over, will be put into your lap. For with the measure you use it will be measured back to you.” Luke 6:38  We also cannot out give God. "Give and it will be given to you."  If we give Him time he will multiply our time. If we give Him love, as we should, He will multiply our love. If we give and help others, He will give and help us. All our giving is not money. It should be much more than money. Of course, we need to give to God financially. He calls us to. But our giving is much more than that, as I said. We need to give sacrificially from our hearts, from ourselves and in many ways. And I am sure there are ways that we haven't even thought of.  So, let's give all we've got because we love God, and see just what He will give to us in return. I know He will give us His unconditional love. He did that by giving His Son to die on a cross for our sins. Our sins, not His. He had none. And that should be enough for us!  Have a spectacular day!  Love,          Les

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
