Prayer Requests, Uncommonly Used Words

This Phrase

Gallery 1 Comment

I’ve been reading a lot today. In fact other than steam cleaning the kitchen floor, that’s about all I have done. I don’t think I have even made up my bed! Oh well.

Perhaps it is not a new word but for sure it is not one of familiar use for me.

umbrage

I came across it reading today; but that’s not all. This is the phrase that really made me sit up and take notice:

He held His God in the highest esteem

via The End Time: Take umbrage, Brethren!.

I told its author that the HOLY SPIRIT had highlighted that for me and that I would like to use it but more than that I want to LIVE IT!

Elizabeth tells us well in the aforementioned post that we Christians must start right now this very day to hold our GOD in the HIGHEST ESTEEM. I would be much pleased if you would pop over to The End Time blog and read the whole piece for yourself. Click the link above and it will take you there.

On a personal prayer request note.

I have a few.

My friend Janet’s Mother left for HEAVEN today. We have happy tears for her and sad ones for Janet and her family.
I have another friend, Dawn, who is battling in the legal system with her, we hope, soon to be former husband who refuses to hold GOD in esteem as evidenced by his criminal conduct as well as his immoral and adulterous pursuits. Yes, I’m upset about it. Yes, I am offended.
One of my much-loved son-in-laws, Greg, had oral surgery yesterday – he hurts but he went to work today anyway.
That’s just a few. I have more but I’ll not name them all.

Thank you for reading. Thank you for praying. Thank you for being my Friends.

Praying for America

Romans 1

22 Professing themselves to be wise, they became fools,

25 They changed the truth of God into a lie, and worshiped and served the creature more than the Creator, who is blessed for ever. Amen.

via Romans 1 KJ21 – Paul, a servant of Jesus Christ, called – Bible Gateway.

ABBA, it is hard watching these passages of Your Word played out here in America. Please forgive and have mercy; please raise up some weeping Prophets as was Jeremiah; and others like Nehemiah and those with the meekness and boldness of JESUS our Savior to boldly preach Repentance and Salvation in JESUS alone. Please save America and please let me be one of Your servants to participate in a HOLY SPIRIT poured out revival and an awakening in America.

Just a late Monday afternoon hello.

A good day here at the Thompson house.  Looking forward to Hubby coming home.

Got my treadmill time in – JESUS and me talk time; did some blog reading; some blog posting at KAT’s MEOWS; some Facebook reading – saw some sad things there; some re-boarding at Pinterest; a little emailing; and now it’s time to pull some supper ideas together and load of laundry wouldn’t hurt.  :)

Remember Bamako? It’s in Mali, West Africa. Christian Talk Radio as I type are talking about Mali. I am more and more convinced that praying for Bamako and all of Mali is a GOD thing.  I hope you are joining me in that praying. And I hope you are praying for the USA as well.

Do you look at your past and believe the lies that you’re too messy to clean up? Too broken to be fixed? Are you struggling to believe that His grace and forgiveness covers whatever is in your past? Paul tells us later on in Ephesians 2:8 “For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith-and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God-” [NIV]
