Our vision is very important. To be able to see clearly is a blessing from God.
As we age our vision may become clouded. We may need glasses or even surgery to see clearly.
In our spiritual life we have the same problem. When we first become a new Christian our vision is clear. We want to obey God’s Word. We have a desire to see people saved.
Then we grow older in the faith and we get complacent. We are not as quick to do God’s will. We do not have a vision for people who are lost.
Are you loosing your spiritual vision? Ask God’s forgiveness and get clear vision again. Read the Bible daily and pray. Then use every opportunity to tell someone about Jesus. People are perishing without someone to tell them.
What a blessing to see clearly, both physically and spiritually.
Everywhere we go the signs are still up. Stay 6 feet away from each other. In an elevator there was images of 4 sets of feet and a sign only 4 people in the elevator at a time. Are you social distancing?
The restrictions are being lifted in many places and there is different opinions on if these restrictions should be kept in place.
The one place that encourages us to get close is in God’s Word when He tells us to draw close to Him. No restrictions. Just call on Jesus and remember He is close to you at all times, if you have trusted Him as your Savior.
Psalms 73:28 – But it is good for me to draw near to God: I have put my trust in the Lord GOD, that I may declare all thy works.
Technology. It is amazing. We can be in one part of the world and communicate with people or control devices from thousands of miles away.
Technology can be used for evil like spreading pornography or it can be used for good, publishing Gods Word throughout the world.
As individuals we have abilities that are similar to technology. We can use our lives, living in sin or we can choose to accept Jesus as our Savior and live a good and fruitful life.
Romans 12:21 – Be not overcome of evil, but overcome evil with good.
As Christians we need to be proud to be Americans. We have responsibilities as citizens. Stand up for our freedoms given to us by the constitution. Vote so that the government is run by leaders of our choice. Teach our children and grandchildren, first the principles taught in the Bible, then the history of the USA.
Ephesians 6:14-17 Stand therefore, having your loins girt about with truth, and having on the breastplate of righteousness; And your feet shod with the preparation of tthe gospel of peace; Above all, taking the shield of faith, wherewith ye shall be able to quench all the fiery darts of the wicked. And take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God
As a man thinks, so is he. What do you think about? The Bible tells us what to think about if we want our minds not to be troubled.
Sometimes, we get depressed or worried, but if we deliberately think on good things, God will help us to be free of unrest, fear and sin.
Scripture verses and spiritual songs are good things to meditate and think about. Count your blessings is another way to bring joy and Praise to the Lord.
Have you ever missed a connecting flight as you were traveling?
That can be a real stressful situation. The uncertainty of when you can find a flight to get you home. You were just a few minutes too late.
There is one flight you really don’t want to miss. That is your flight to eternal life. If you miss that, it is permanent. There is no second chance to get on board.
Don’t be late. Trust Jesus as your Savior, today.
Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. John 14:6
Have you been to Jesus for the cleansing power? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Are you fully trusting in His grace this hour? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Refrain: Are you washed in the blood? In the soul cleansing blood of the Lamb? Are your garments spotless, are they white as snow? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Are you walking daily by the Savior’s side? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Do you rest each moment in the Crucified? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb?
When the Bridegroom cometh will your robes be white? Are you washed in the blood of the Lamb? Will your soul be ready for the mansions bright, And be washed in the blood of the Lamb?
Lay aside the garments that are stained with sin, And be washed in the blood of the Lamb; There’s a fountain flowing for the soul unclean, Oh, be washed in the blood of the Lamb!
This is an old hymn with questions that ask us if we are truly saved and on the way to Heaven . If you do not know this hymn, go to YouTube which has many different groups singing this beautiful old, thought provoking hymn.
