2025, 3 John, Gospel of John, Questions

Children

Leave a comment

Quickly. 
Two verses this morning. Both were penned by John.  Both speak of Truth.
Truth.
How important is it?  And how important is it to pray for Truth for our children? 

 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.  3 John 

6 Jesus answered, “I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me.  John 14

See what I mean? 
JESUS is Truth.  And of all the things we want for our children and ourselves it is to Walk with HIM, right? 

Something to ponder . . . until next time, Holy hugs, Kathie 

2025, Acts, Gospel of John, Questions

This Season of Opportunity

Leave a comment

14 And the Word was made flesh, and dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory, the glory as of the only begotten of the Father,) full of grace and truth.  John 1 

GOD came and walked among us.

HE will come again and walk among us. 

9 And when he had spoken these things, while they beheld, he was taken up; and a cloud received him out of their sight. 10 And while they looked stedfastly toward heaven as he went up, behold, two men stood by them in white apparel; 11 Which also said, Ye men of Galilee, why stand ye gazing up into heaven? this same Jesus, which is taken up from you into heaven, shall so come in like manner as ye have seen him go into heaven. Acts 1

GOD made Himself flesh so we could see Him, touch Him, interact with Him, and commune with Him. 
GOD did that for us.
And when He returned to Heaven for this season of opportunity, HE sent HOLY SPIRIT to testify to us that His coming WAS and IS true. 

GOD walked among us! And HE will again! 

Does this matter to you?

2024, Ephesians, Psalms, Questions

Parts . . .

Leave a comment

Good Morning, Family and Friends.
I have been reading from The Psalms this morning. As I have said previously, I am continuing to read the Bible through. I hope to begin 2025 with The Proverbs.

But today I am here with something to consider from Psalm 143.

GOD’s part – our part.

7 Answer me quickly, O LORD; my spirit fails.  Do not hide Your face from me, or I will be like those who descend to the Pit.
8 Let me hear Your loving devotion in the morning, for I have put my trust in You. Teach me the way I should walk, for to You I lift up my soul.
9 Deliver me from my enemies, O LORD; I flee to You for refuge.
10 Teach me to do Your will, for You are my God. May Your good Spirit lead me on level ground.  source Psalm 143

I see verse 7 as an urgent cry for help; a desperate situation we think we won’t live through, so we call on The LORD. And naturally, we want Him to answer quickly.
Now let’s get to the HIS part, our part.  We want His loving devotion in the morning and all day long and we can have it — here’s our part: I have put my trust in You. To know the loving devotion of The Father, we have to trust Him. If we lack trust, we will doubt His loving devotion toward us.
If we want Him to teach us the way we should walk, we garaden+path+curve-2293325470 have a part in that and our part is to lift our soul to Him — that is all our emotions we check with Him. When feelings come, when desires come, we take them to Him, and we see what His Word says — are these worthy and holy or not. And if not, in His power and grace, we reject them.  And day by day we learn from Him how we should walk.  It’s a perfect system.
Next. Deliver me from my enemies. Who are my enemies? My flesh, the world’s systems, and the principalities and rulers of darkness. (See Ephesians 6: 10-12)
GOD’s part: Deliverance. He delivers!
My part, your part: Flee. Run to The Father for His Strength to say NO to the temptation, whatever it is. No, I’m not doing that!
Oh, the taste of Victory!!
Teach me to do Your Will and why would He do that? Because HE is our GOD. Why would He lead us? Because HE is good. There is no darkness in Him at all. HE is worthy of our trust. HE is worthy of our sole allegiance.

HIS part. Our part.
Something to ponder, don’t you think?

2024, A Quick Hello, Hebrews, Questions

New Focus

Leave a comment

Hello Friends,

It was not my intent to leave you in the middle of Luke.
Forgive me, please.

We are about to wrap up this year of 2024 and what a year it has been!
Not one I shall soon forget. GOD has been GOOD!
My beloved is continuing to recover here at home after a recent hospital stay, our family was here, and we loved on one another and rejoiced. Our hearts are full of gladness and our bodies are way tired! 😊

Shall we now turn our hearts to reflection and focus on our Heavenly Father and the adventures He will bring across our paths in 2025? Shall we in this coming week make provisions to leave behind the sins that have easily beset us this year?

1 Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off every encumbrance and the sin that so easily entangles, and let us run with endurance the race set out for us. 2 Let us fix our eyes on Jesus, the author and perfecter of our faith, who for the joy set before Him endured the cross, scorning its shame, and sat down at the right hand of the throne of God. 3 Consider Him who endured such hostility from sinners, so that you will not grow weary and lose heart. Hebrews 12 LINK to source

Shall we receive courage from The Holy ONE to forgive more easily, to let us lay not our heads on pillows to sleep with malice poisoning our minds? Shall we listen carefully and hear our family and friends with the benefit of the doubt? Shall we listen to HOLY SPIRIT and respond to Him quickly and favorably? These are just a few of the things coming to mind tonight.
