Stop, Look, and Listen

July 11, 2013

Genesis 1:24-25
And God said, Let the earth bring forth the living creature after his kind, cattle, and creeping thing, and beast of the earth after his kind:and it was so.And God made the beast of the earth after his kind, and cattle after their kind, and every thing that creepeth upon the earth after his kind:and God saw that it was good.
God gives so many blessings. Just to look at His creation is awesome. Early in the morning His creatures are out, and today, in the yard was a beautiful red fox, a tiny humming bird, and many more of His lovely creatures were welcoming the day.
Sometimes we get to busy in the routine of daily living that we miss what God has given us to enjoy.
Why not stop, even for a minute today and look around to see some of the beauty God has created?

Is your light shinning?

July 9, 2013

Jesus said:
John 12:46
I am come a light into the world, that whosoever believeth on me should not abide in darkness.
As Christians it is our responsibility to bring the light of Christ to the lost. Is your light shinning?
Song for today, “This Little Light of Mine.”

Where is God in your life?

July 7, 2013

Matthew 6:33
But seek ye first the kingdom of God, and his righteousness; and all these things shall be added unto you.
God says in His Word that everything shall be added onto you. Food, clothing, shelter.
God wants all of our hearts, not just a token. He wants more than our church attendance. He wants us to put Him first above all else. Where is God in your life?

Time to Tell Others

July 5, 2013

2 Corinthians 6:2
(For he saith, I have heard thee in a time accepted, and in the day of salvation have I succoured thee:behold, now is the accepted time; behold, now is the day of salvation.)
Every day is a day when someone can hear the Gospel. Let it be you that speaks for God.
SOS can teach you how to accomplish being a bold witness for our Lord.

Freedom

June 30, 2013

Freedom is never free, it comes with a price.
Today, think of our freedom in America. Brave men and women died so we can have freedom of worship, freedom of speech, freedom to do what we want to do in life, freedom to choose.
True freedom is through Jesus Christ who died so we can have peace, joy and eternal life in Heaven. All we have to do is choose to accept Him as our Savior, then follow Him.
This week as we approach the 4th of July, take a little time out to pray for our service men and women who are serving in the Armed forces, also, the wounded warriors and families.
Then thank The Lord we live in a country where we still have our freedom.

Obedience

June 19, 2013

Obedience is what He says, when he says, for whatever reason He says, and where He says.
Partial obedience is disobedience. God sometimes speaks in a still small voice.
Are you an obedient Christian?

How to live a Godly life

June 12, 2013

You can not live a Godly life without the Word of God. Read The Word daily for a Christ centered life.
Psalms 119:11
Thy word have I hid in mine heart,
that I might not sin against thee.

Life is Short

June 4, 2013

My husband brought me a beautiful magnolia tree for my birthday. The blooms are beautiful and so lovely to see, but it saddens me that the next morning they are all brown and wilted. It reminds me that our life is short and we need to see the beauty God has given us while we have opportunity. Take time to witness for The Lord, take time to enjoy family and friends. Look around at God’s creation and Praise Him for all he has given us.
James 4:14
14 Whereas ye know not what shall be on the morrow. For what is your life? It is even a vapour, that appeareth for a little time, and then vanisheth away.

Heavenly or Earthly

May 28, 2013

How many people do you know that are so heavenly minded that they are of no earthly good and how many are so earthly minded they are of no heavenly good?

Does it make a difference?

May 24, 2013

The last few weeks we have heard politicians say, “What difference does it make?”
There is a story about a little boy walking on the beach picking up starfish and throwing them back into the water.
An old man came along and asked the boy, “Why are you throwing those starfish back in, there are hundreds of them, so what difference does it make.”
The little boy picked up one more and thew it in, then said to the old man, ” It makes a difference to that one.”
Every person that hears and accepts the Gospel is on the way to Heaven, and it makes a difference to that one.
This is a holiday weekend, why not make a difference in someone’s life and tell them about The Lord Jesus.
