Isaiah 55: 6

Seek ye the Lord while he may be found, call ye upon him while he is near:

Forget not my law;but let thine heart keep my commandments;

verse 5,6

Trust in the Lord with all thine heart; and lean not unto thine own understanding.

In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

Today is a new day, we have been given! 

Our life is a precious gift from God,

The way we live it is our Gift to Him.

Have a Blessed Day!

Butterfly Sunday

The butterfly is a beautiful thing, but once it

was a Cocoon then a Caterpillar, not very pretty,

but then it was changed, turned into a beautiful Butterfly!

One day like the butterfly as believers, we shall

be changed! 

Our life may be filled with struggles and troubles

but we do have hope. We can choose to give up or

fight with courage and faith.  As the butterfly fights its way out of the cocoon it changes into a beautiful thing, we too must fight the good fight of faith to become what we will be.

Philippians 3:20-21

"For our life is in heaven; from where we look for the Savior, the Lord Jesus Christ; Who shall change our vile body, that it may be fashioned like unto his glorious body"

With courage and faith let us continue in times of trouble and adversity, knowing that these trials will make us stronger. Let me encourage you not to give up but to fight with courage and faith!

John 16:33

"In the world you will have tribulations," "In me you may have peace" 

Dear Lord, give us peace in all the turmoil around us, help us as we place our trust in You, for you are our strength." Amen

Have a Blessed Sunday!

Living Life Victorious

In your daily lives, do you see it as an adventure, 

or do you live it  quietly expecting things to "just happen". Do you hold back on doing the things you would enjoy doing because of fear. 

 Fear can hinder us from doing the things we love and enjoy doing.

Fear can also hinder us from doing the things we

are called as believers to do. Then we miss out on

the blessings that God has planned for our lives.

In Matthew 14:27 Jesus told Peter "It is I,be not afraid".

While Peter and the other disciples were out fishing one night, a storm came up and they were afraid. As the storm raged and the winds tossed the boat, they saw Jesus walking on the water, Peter called out to Jesus to let him come to him on the water, and Jesus said, 'Come'.   As long as Peter kept his eyes on Jesus, he walked on the water, but as soon as he took them off him he began to sink.

 We can learn from Peter's experience, when the storms of our life becomes too rough for us to handle, put our eyes of faith on the one that controls all things. 

As Jesus calmed the storms that night so many years ago, He is the same today! When life isn't going the way it should, when those in power today makes decisions that aren't Godly, keep trusting in the one that really counts, He is faithful and merciful to those that put their trust in Him.

Psalms 34:4

"I sought the Lord, and he heard me, and delivered me from all my fears".

As we allow our Lord to calm our fears, be faithful and be ready.

Matthew 24: 44

Therefore be ye also ready: for in such an hour

 as ye think not the Son of man cometh.

Dear Lord, thank you that when you say"come"

we can rest in the truth that you are the same today 

as you were then, we can ''come'' to you and rest in your loving arms and find peace and encouragement for our souls, knowing you are the same yesterday, today and forever!

Amen

May your Sunday be Blessed!

Linking to Roses of Inspirations 

How Many Times

How often have we seen others accomplishing things we ourselves have longed for. Do we read about someone going places where we haven't been able financially  to go. Do we compare ourselves to others when we shouldn't. So often I have to remind myself that God has promised to be with me and supply my needs to accomplish what He wants for me! This means that I don't need the approval or permission from others when He provides the resources, I just need to use my time and talents to bless others and give Him the Glory.  Keeping my eyes of faith on Him will keep me from becoming resentful.

John 21:15-22

Jesus asked Peter three times if he loved Him, the first time after Peter said that he loved Him, Jesus said, "Feed my Lambs". Two more times Jesus asked Peter if he loved Him, each time He said "Feed my Sheep".  When Peter pointed to another disciple and asked "What about him", Jesus said to him, "What is it to you?".

I have asked myself that very question when comparing myself to another. My answer is  usually that it is "none of my business". I just need to follow, obey and be faithful to Jesus in what He has for me to do!

 How many times do we need to be asked if we love our Lord, before we are willing to follow Him.

Follow Me 

by Ira Stamphill

I traveled on a lonely road and no one seem to care,

the burden on my weary back had bowed me to despair.   

I oft complained to Jesus how folks were treating me.

And then I heard Him say so tenderly,

"My feet were also weary upon the Calvary road;

the cross became so heavy, I fell beneath the load,

Be faithful weary pilgrim the morning I can see,

Just lift your cross and follow close to me."

Quiet Rest

"There is a place of quiet rest,

Near to the heart of God,

A place where all is joy and peace,

Near to the heart of God"--McAfee

Spending quiet time with God will bring quiet rest.

Look UP !

"I Looked UP"

I looked down and I found that everything

looked real bad,

I looked back and I saw so many things 

that were sad,

I looked up and I could feel the sunshine

on my face,

I felt love and peace and God's 

healing grace.

I realized everyday what I needed

to do,

No matter what I was doing or

going through,

If I looked down I missed the hope and

strength for the day,

If I looked back I'd dwell on things I could

never change anyway.

Looking up I would find all that I need,

I'd have a reason to keep trying,

knowing with God I'd succeed.

When I'm down and feeling like there is 

no hope around,

I look up and I realize where true

hope is found,

When I look back and I worry about what

has already been done,

I look up and I see the battles are over

And my Father has already won!!

Keep your eyes on Jesus the source of true

Peace, He will guide you with His eye!

Have a Blessed Day!

A Light in the Darkness

Have you ever visited a cave and followed it

deep into the ground. At first the formations

are a thing of wonder and maybe beauty. But

as you continue further it becomes dark and

almost suffocating. It's a relief to get back and

and see the light of day.

 The world has become like this cave, dark

with sin and needs light!  With all that has been

going on and no one seems to have the answer

to it's problems. There is an answer and a light

to guide us if we will only turn back to our creator

and follow His light!

John 12:46

"I am come a light into the world, that whoever believes on me should not abide in darkness."

In Jesus Christ we can have the light of salvation,

the only way to find our way in this world of 

spiritual darkness!

Psalm 23

The Lord is my shepherd; I shall not want.

He maketh me to lie down in green pastures:

he leadeth me beside the still waters.

He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths

of righteousness for his name's sake.

Yea though I walk through the valley of the shadow

of death, I will fear no evil: for thou art with me;

thy rod and thy staff they comfort me.

Thou preparest a table before me in the presence of

mine enemies: thou anointest my head with oil; my cup runneth over.

Surely goodness and mercy shall follow me, all the days of my life: and I will dwell in the house of the 

Lord forever.

Have a Blessed Sunday!

Footprints in the Sand

One night a man had a dream.

He dreamed he was walking along

the beach with the Lord.

Across the sky flashed scenes from

his life.

 For each scene, he noticed

two sets of footprints in the sand;

one belonged to him, and the other

belonged to the LORD.

 When the last scene of his life

flashed before him, he looked

back at the footprints in the sand.

He noticed that many times along

the path of his life, 

there were only one set of footprints.

He also noticed that it happened

at the very lowest an saddest times

in his life....

 This really bothered him and he

questioned the LORD about it.

"LORD, you said that once I 

decided to follow you, you'd walk

with me all the way. But I have noticed

that during the most troublesome

times in my life, there is only one set of

footprints. I don't understand why,

when I needed you most, you would 

leave me."

The LORD replied, "My precious, precious child,

I love you and I would never leave you.

 During your times of trail and suffering, when you see only one set of footprints, it was then that I carried you". 

Arthur unknown

Whatever trail or sorrow we may face in life. When we think all others have forsaken us, we can be certain of this, that our LORD will never leave those that belong to HIM. As we walk in HIS light and follow HIM, have faith that HE is with you. 

Ephesians 5:14 ...Christ shall give thee light.

~Footprints of Jesus that make the pathway glow,

I will follow the steps of Jesus, where ever they go".  ~
