21 Days to Hatch

Do you know a hen sits on her eggs, keeping them warm until they hatch? 
It takes about 21 days. I’ve not been sitting on this for 21 days but today I think it’s hatching time. Drum roll, please. Ta Da! img_4086-1

Here’s the TEXT that came to mind when I saw this some days ago on Facebook.

John 15:18 If the world hates you, understand that it hated Me first.
19 If you were of the world, it would love you as its own. Instead, the world hates you, because you are not of the world, but I have chosen you out of the world.
20 Remember the word that I spoke to you: ‘No servant is greater than his master.’ If they persecuted Me, they will persecute you as well; if they kept My word, they will keep yours as well.

21 But they will treat you like this because of My name, since they do not know the One who sent Me.
22 If I had not come and spoken to them, they would not be guilty of sin. Now, however, they have no excuse for their sin. 
23 Whoever hates Me hates My Father as well.
24 If I had not done among them the works that no one else did, they would not be guilty of sin; but now they have seen and hated both Me and My Father. 
25 But this is to fulfill what is written in their Law: ‘They hated Me without reason.’ 
26 When the Advocate comes, whom I will send to you from the Father—the Spirit of truth who proceeds from the Father—He will testify about Me. 
27 And you also must testify, because you have been with Me from the beginning LINK

Okay. Now that you have read the TEXT, what about Christmas does the WORLD love?

The Fourth Thursday

It’s been a fast November. I have a regret. I didn’t do my usual November thirty days of thanks and now The Thursday is almost here. 
So from our home to yours.

I celebrated today with my Office Family. I cannot thank Father GOD enough for His provision and favor upon us when He set me in place at Holt & Associates. We are grateful. 

When you gather in your respective places on Thursday, I hope your coming together will not be about just food and feasting; please sprinkle the day with generous helpings of thanks. 
I long for us, The Body of Christ, to experience celebrations with family and friends that are more than just eating holiday foods, laughter, family shenanigans, and afternoon naps.
I’m not frowning on those things — not at all! Let’s do all that but can we go deeper? 
Can we have prayer and worship too?
Can we sing songs together?
Can we encourage one another with the Joy of The LORD – recounting what He has done all year for us?
In other words, can we just flat-out GIVE THANKS? Lots of thanks for HE surely deserves it!

Election Day 2024

And when we are made privy to the outcome, then what? 

Christians, if we get what we say we want, what are we going to do? 

Are we going to breathe a sigh of relief and go back to our normal habits? Will we still pray as much? Will we proclaim the Gospel of JESUS The CHRIST? Were we proclaiming the Gospel these last four years or were we screaming about temporary discomforts and inconveniences?  Were we all bent out of shape for four years now over the mockery of truth and justice longstanding here? Did we submit ourselves to GOD for Him to shape us to Truth and Justice according to The Scriptures?

What will we do when this election day is over? 

What is GOD interested in with this election? The election outcome? 
He has already decided.
He knows. Who did He choose?
And why?
Did He hear the cry of the people for a king? He did when Israel demanded a king. He gave them what they demanded – Saul! It didn’t go well for them with Saul. 

What/who is America asking for?
HE heard us long before today. The decision was made all these years by what has been done in the every day lives of We The People. 

Again I ask, is America asking for Truth and Justice according to The Scriptures or is America demanding laws to kill their children with sexual perversion and mutilation outside the womb and abortion inside the womb? Is America screaming for relief from responsibilities and accountability for their personal decisions and actions? Is America warring for “freedom” to sin with no consequences?  

An awakening of one kind or the other is on the horizon. 

This I know. GOD is faithful and HE is worthy of our trust – HE is longsuffering and patient BUT there is an end to His longsuffering with the sins of We The People. 

The wait will soon be over — then what?
