Save from what? 

We know for sure it’s not eternal salvation. Why do we know that? Because Only JESUS (and not we ourselves) saves from the penalty of sin and grants eternal life. 

So, saved from what? 
Could it be saved from false teachings? Maybe bad attitudes? Misunderstandings? Any number of physical/emotional maladies that we bring on ourselves because we fail to pay close attention to what we say and what we do. 

Scripture. That’s what we are looking at here.
GOD The Father had this written for us, and to us, He must mean it. 

Pay close attention to your life!
Watch what you watch and hear what you listen to.

Holy hugs, Kathie

1 Timothy, 2 Corinthians, 2024, Just Chatty Today

Sometimes I come and sit and look at this blank screen and in my mind, I write something funny or important and I feel connected to a small collection of people beyond this screen.
Silly.
But here I am tickling the keyboard waiting for something to appear on this screen that is worth the publish button.

I have been a tiny, minuscule part of the blogging world since 2005,  I think.
First with another hosting platform, and here at WordPress since 2007. That’s a lot of words.

Oh, Father, You know my desire has been to make You known from the pages of this blog. To establish a connection whereby I could communicate that You are and that they (I) need You; that You are the only hope people have to escape this world with peace and safety. I’d like to keep doing that as long as You will leave me here. For sure, for sure it will take You in me to do this – You are my only hope. 

I hope it is immediately apparent as you happen upon The White Stone Blog that it is a web spot where JESUS is King. I hope you find this a pleasant place with refreshing, or perhaps even odd thoughts expressed, good stories, funny stories, interesting information, and real-life help to know GOD better than you did before you stopped by.
I suspect I will not know the good that was accomplished by these pages until I am absent from this body and present with The LORD.

Not to take anything away from my dear brother Paul, I just know it took the Blood of JESUS to wash this sinner clean and it’s a really good thing that that Blood does not lose its power, it keeps on keeping me clean — I did not say sinless, but I do sin less than I used to. Hallelujah!
I have a word this year that I am taking with me through the year.
It’s the word DELIGHT and my aim is that I learn this year more than I ever have to delight in The LORD and to know that He delights in me and to take delight in the people He puts in my life this year, particularly those who came with me from 2023.

It’s been a sweet Sunday here. I hope it is at your house too.

I got to go now. We need a dog leash — we loaned out the one we had to a stranger. :)

Oh yes! This is good!

More 1 Timothy 2:1

First of all, then, I urge that petitions (specific requests), prayers, intercessions (prayers for others) and thanksgivings be offered on behalf of all people,   source

Petitions, prayers, intercessions, and thanksgiving.
Strong’s was helpful.

Petitions: Asking, begging, if you please, for such things as we need and lack.  If you will consider this with me, perhaps it is akin to when we sign a petition to support a change we believe needs to be. So, could it be when we petition GOD we are saying we are willing to work with You LORD for this change we are petitioning? This helps me. I hope it does you.

Prayers: That was easy. Addressing GOD. Talking, conversing with GOD. Speaking and listening to GOD; that’s prayer.

Intercessions: Now, this one! A falling in with
Is it just me or are you tracking this with me?
A coming together; to visit. A falling in with.
Could we consider that Intercession is a prayer that says, “Father, I’d like to visit with YOU about this matter for my sister, for my brother, for my friend, for a stranger I saw on the street?
This encourages me. I hope it does you too.

Thanksgiving: Giving thanks, mindful of favors, grateful, thankful
Just as we expected, right? Do you like: mindful of favors? Does that say to you as it does to me in prayer we can and should be mindful of the abundant favor GOD has lavished upon us? Me too!

Until next time ~ ~ ~
