Do you? Or not?

God as called you out. To do somehing in your lives for Him. Know what it is?

To praise Him and glorify His name. To glory in the name of His ONLY begotten Son...Jesus Christ.

But, even thn we have been known to complain to God.

How about Preachers who get tired of the everyday rigors of shepherding their flocks. Or teachers who don't consider their Sunday School class, as something they were called by God to do? When oppostion to your message arises? Or no one

Seems to listen? Or ..God forbid, continuous behavior arises and even leads to a

near marriage breakup, or to 

children becoming rebellious.

Look at what happened with Jeremiah the Prophet. Jeremiah chapter 20: verses 7 through 13.

Let me shorten this. Jeremiah complained to God. Guesswhat? God's Word burned within the soul 

of Jeremiah, and as is usual

the Spirit of God reminds Jeremiah that He is with Him. Jeremiah then ask for vengeance by the Lord on his enemies. Then Jeremiah Sings Praise unto the Lord. So...in closing i say read Psalm 40 beginning with verse 1.

Wait patiently for the Lord. Hear what God has in store

For YOU and me! 

Missing fellowship.

Goodmorning. Today i work

on the Lords day reluctantly.

Im doing it as a favor to a fellow worker. I just want to sy this. For over 40 years i have given Sundays to man and employers in order to survive. So having said that, i feel its more than time to let others take up that mantle. When i miss church, i feel naked. Exposed to an unrighteous world. Some say its only fair that share my Sundays. Okay maybe back before i was diagnosed

with cardiovascular desease. I have a for sure terminal desease and i realize my life is getting ever closer to the end. (Here on earth). Living on pain meds and occupying til Christ takes me home. My eanest desire is i can with Gods guidance be blessing to others. Pray for me so i can give God His Praise and Glory...only He deserves. Back to my Sundays. To those to for selfish reasons think i have no right to them...shame on you. 6 days i am available to give you my expertise and that is suffient. Im getting older and YOU should respect your

Elders. I did, and i do. When i miss hurch i miss my church family. Got to go.love ya.

testing.

To be humble!

Luke chapter 18
Beginning with verse 13.
The tax collectors sense of unworthiness, standing before God.....He could not even look up, raise his head or face
towards heaven. He was so humbled. Wow. Everyday, through so much physical,and emotional pain...i am so humbled toward my God. At this point, so close to the end, the end of my life here, the unfortunate end to other things in my life...all my trust falls on, and in Christ. I know from reading the words of Christ here in the book of Luke, that this kind of humility is the only thing God
accepts. You see, God exalts the humble, but those that exalt themselves He humbles.
If you are sinning against the will of God.....beware. Im looking forward to death, OR the eminent return of Christ.
Explain then how you decided your ambitions were your real love in life, and not your marriage. Marriage was the first institution God created.
Fort this reason i will say i have been forever humbled.
I will forever be indebted
to Christ for forgiving me...the wretched sinner i am. I leave you with this, Luke 18: 14.
Gods speed.

One word from God.

I wish to remind all believers in Christ of the fact that it only takes one word from God...after He has become your Lord, to bring order
to your life. He brings the full weight of His power to YOUR
LIFE. Study Genesis chapter
One. Just one word. So be very careful what you pray for. Why? Because you may get it?
NO....Because you should only ask for what is Gods will....and yours. You need to be in a agreement with God. He loves that. Amen.

Hold on to your faith, and forgive

Good evening. It has been a while.Tonight i suffer. Today was a good day, but tonight i suffer. I suffer
alone...know one is with me. My pain is overwhelming. It feels like my skin has been scraped. Im waiting for my pain meds to kick in. I write because i must. I feel as if i have been abandoned. And i have been. My thoughts on that are not of a complaining nature. But as an observer. Why?....well because i am for sure not the only person ever left in this position.
What keeps me going ? IT'S the lord.
I write these words thinking on the words of David. Psalm 13.
A plea for deliverance.
Here it is. How long Lord?
Will you forget me forever?
How long will you hide your face
from me?
How long will i store up anxious
concerns within me, agony in my
mind every day? How long will
my enemy dominate me? Consider me and answer,Lord my God.
Restore brightness to my eyes;
otherwise, i will sleep in death.
My enemy will say" I have triumphed
over him." and my foes will rejoice
because i am shaken.
But i have trusted in your faithful
love; my heart will rejoice in your
deliverance. I will sing to the Lord because he has treated me generously.
This my friends is why i continue
to blog, and live stream on f/b. You see ....i am not alone because my generous full of grace Lord and master is with me. I have dear friends who are bearing their crosses
that i must encourage and pray for.
So tonight i pray for my friends. Hang on, endure unto the end. For those who read this and do not understand, i pray God saves you so you will understand.  I love all of your souls.
If i could take your pain away i would. Jesus is coming soon, morning or night, or noon. So continue to pray, study God's word, (the Bible) hold on to your faith. And forgive.

AND I AM NOT.

Today I spoke of Genesis chapter one, the first 5 verses. Tonight just a reminder of why its necessary  to follow the apostle Paul's exhortation about the Christian marriage and home.Here it is. Wives submit,to your own husband, as is fitting in the Lord.In other words God loves this.
Husbands,love your wives and do not be bitter toward them. And I am not.

Children,obey your parents in all things, for this is well pleasing to the Lord. And Fathers , do not provoke your children ,lest they become discouraged. Read the rest of colossians chapter 3 beginning with
Verse 18....thru...25. This is all concerning the Christian home. It's good stuff. You may aught to read chapter 4 as well. You see I am  in chains myself, in chains  to Christ Jesus. God bless you and watch my devotion on my FB page. Night.
