"A GENTLE REMINDER"

If you are like me, you need a little reminder once in a while of what really matters in your life. We live in a world that is designed to force us into it's mold and thinking. Scripture tells us that we are to have a renewed mind, thinking on those things which will enable us to present Jesus Christ as we mature with each step. A great prayer would be "Please Lord protect me from becoming so caught up in worldly gain that I don't have time for eternal preparation". A gentle nudge is just what we need, sometimes a number of times each day.

"IT IS TOO HEAVY"

Seems like in recent years I have noticed I can't carry the load I once could. Maybe my health isues have had some part in that. One thing has not changed though and that is my need for the Lord to bare the load in my life. For me to try and be the loadbearer is not very smart. I must let the One who is more than capable of handling my needs be the All Powerful Lord of my daily situation. If I give it all over to Him, the need will always be met perfectly. It is time to unload and give up. Get at it.....

"MORE THAN A BUDDY"

Friends are great blessings. They can be a real help during tough times. One thing we must always remember though is the Lord is not just our buddy or peep. He is the Saviour of our souls, healer of our bodies, and provider of our needs. He must occupy a special position in every aspect of our existence. We must honor Him with our words and actions. Praising Him must be as normal as breathing. He wants to be looked to first above all else during our temptations and trials. We make the place where He resides through our faith in His faithfulness. Lets make Him feel at home in our hearts.

"SERMON IN A MINUTE"

What's happening all around us must be sifted through what has been revealed to our spirit man. One is definitely eternal and the other probably not.

"JEFF'S THINKING"

Good morning Don....something popped into my mind and thought I would write.

 

Are we living for the moment or the memory.  The aroma of what we do often lingers for days, months, or sometimes generations.  If we measure our actions with the weight of generational ramifications, it will urge us to "act" at times and "sit silently" at others. 

 

"FAVOR AIN'T FAIR"

"Favor ain't fair" so they say.  I've said it, believed it, but now....starting to doubt it.  Ha!  Too often we want to go where God wants us to go, become what God wants us to become, accomplish what God wants us to accomplish, and have what God wants us to have,  but we don't want to walk in the way God wants us to walk.  So, yeah....I am beginning to think .... favor IS fair! 

 

Be blessed and walk in God's favor.

"WORDS"

The words we speak produce life or death. With the stroke of the tongue we can change something or someone for all of eternity. Damage can be done that is unrepairable. A memory can be established for all of time. Speak with a careful spirit and a mind being fed truth from above.

"SERMON IN A MINUTE"

We can not turn on and off our love for God. Everything we do must be tempered by our desire to live pleasing to him. Everything....
