Reading Truth!

The reading of Luke 1.

May I share a few words? Words I underlined as I read. It’s longer than other chapters — but, you just might find it worth the read.

Why was this Gospel of Luke penned?
Verse 4. So we may know for sure the truth.  So as we read the whole of the Gospel of Luke, let us know we are reading truth. Let truth reign in us.

Verse 37.  We can land on this one. Remember we are reading truth! “37 For with God nothing shall be impossible.”  Nothing we bring to Him in prayer, petition, and request is impossible.  Nothing is too big or too small. He cares! Not only does He care. He is able!

45. Blessed is she who trusted . . . there is more to the verse but I am convinced I can safely believe this for me. I am blessed when I trust Him!

In verses 74 and 75 I see we are rescued from the fiercest of enemies to serve The HOLY ONE. To serve Him in holiness and righteousness all our days! This is our calling! This is our duty. This is our greatest privilege and pleasure. Do we believe this truth?

Verse 77. The knowledge of salvation comes through the removal of our sins. It says removal! At salvation! Our sins are removed! We no longer bear them because JESUS did!

Verses 78 and 79. Through our GOD’s heart of mercy . . . we have the guide for our feet. We get to walk in peace on the sod of this hostile world because He was made flesh and dwelt among us! John 1:14 And He is coming again! Revelation 22:20.

Just for fun!

Today’s the day!  Either way in my family there will be cheers; I would say tears but I doubt it — either way!

Iron Bowl
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Iron Bowl is the name given to the Alabama–Auburn football rivalry.[1] It is an American college football rivalry game played annually by the football teams of the two largest public universities in the U.S. state of Alabama, the Auburn University Tigers and University of Alabama Crimson Tide, both charter members of the Southeastern Conference (SEC). The series is considered one of the most important football rivalries in the annals of American sports.[2][3]

As the rivalry was played in Birmingham, Alabama for many years at Legion Field, the name of the Iron Bowl comes from Birmingham’s historic role in the steel industry.[4] Auburn Coach Shug Jordan is credited with coining the rivalry game’s nickname as the “Iron Bowl” in a 1964 interview. Auburn coach Ralph Jordan was asked by reporters how he would deal with the disappointment of not taking his team to a bowl game, Jordan responded, “We’ve got our bowl game. We have it every year. It’s the Iron Bowl in Birmingham.”[5]

For much of the 20th century, the game was played every year in Birmingham at Legion Field, with Alabama winning 34 games and Auburn 19. Four games were played in Montgomery, Alabama, with each team winning two.[6] Since 2000, the games have been played at Jordan–Hare Stadium in Auburn every odd-numbered year and at Bryant–Denny Stadium in Tuscaloosa every even-numbered year. Auburn has a 9–5 record in games played at Jordan–Hare Stadium and a 7–4 record in games played in Tuscaloosa,[6] with 5 of those wins coming at Bryant-Denny.
