Writers fear blank screens. They say such cruel things to the one sitting before them.
I’ve been known to type gibberish on mine to drown the noise. . . like now.
I took a nap today. It felt good at the time but now . . . Well, it’s nearly 11:00 pm and here I sit!
With a blank screen.
So, shall we pray?
Father GOD, when we draw a blank, help us draw on YOUR Strength, YOUR love and guidance that You are so willing to give us. Thank You that You are never blank. You always know what we need and You are always ready to give as we come and ask. Thank You. So for any dear soul that reads my blank screen or is experiencing one of their own, thank You for encouraging us and thank You for giving us a new and/or renewed vision. Thank You for the courage and the strength to press on through blank screens, or emptiness of every kind that may be looming. Thank You that YOU never leave us or forsake for JESUS’s sake.

If you were attending a Bible class and the class was all about ‘What Does the Bible Say About It’ what would your question be?
Would you have more than one question?
Would you be willing to ask it with others present? Or would you rather write the question and submit it to the one requesting?
If such a class was offered in your locale, would you be inclined to attend?
Just wondering . . . would you name your question?
If all of Ephesians 6:11 isn’t true, is any of it?
I say unequivocally it is. What do you say?
Ephesians 6:11Amplified Bible (AMP) 11 Put on the full armor of God [for His precepts are like the splendid armor of a heavily-armed soldier], so that you may be able to [successfully] stand up against all the schemes and the strategies and the deceits of the devil. source

Real serious!
So, what would we do if we knew a person with skin on their face had a systematic plan; a plan of action; and practiced deceiving us?
Would we pass it off without a thought? Would we write them off as harmless? Would we deny they exist?
No? Well . . . then.
So. What’s the Evil One up to in your life? Need help?

We are glad you are here; stay a while, look around, and be encouraged. We estimate there to be over 3,000 posts here at The White Stone Blog. Please know my hope is ALWAYS to help and NEVER harm. I have voiced many opinions and thoughts here since 2007 and by now I MAY NOT EVEN AGREE with all of them and some of my grammar and punctuation likely needs editing. But this is changeless: JESUS is our ONLY Savior and Hope. Do you KNOW Him?
