This was on Facebook this morning. Humerus but sadly true. With all the problems that individuals face, there seems to be no joy.
Jesus brings joy. And those of us who know Him have a joyous future. Maybe hard times on earth but the promise of joy in Heaven.
Friends are so important in life. If you have just one friend, you are blessed. If you have more than one friend you are more than blessed.
A true friend loves you no matter what, in good times and bad. That friend prays for you, lets you vent when you are frustrated, and is always there.
Today,, thank the LORD for the friendship you have and pray for your friends.
Boast not thyself of to morrow; for thou knowest not what a day may bring forth. Psalm 27:1
The day was beautiful. I was going to a meeting with my daughter, parked my car in her yard where it has been parked many times.
When we came back the car was under a huge tree that had fallen from the neighbors yard. What a shock!
The question is, How do we react when unexpected things happen? Do we get angry, or try to place blame?
I have learned through many trials that GOD is in control and everything will be fine. My heart is full of Praise today as I think of all the things He has done for me.
Paul tells us in the book of Philippians that he went through many trials and afflictions, and whatever happened to him good or bad he can trust Jesus to give him strength.
That is true today. If we trust Jesus, He will give us strength to do whatever He wants us to do.
How do you start your day? Get up, grab breakfast in a hurry and rush out the door. You are stressed and feel frazzled.
The better plan for a good day is to start your day with Bible reading and prayer. No time you think. Get up earlier before everyone starts to need you. It is worth the effort.
Quiet time with the LORD is essential. Your day will go much better.
Have you ever had a problem getting on Internet or trying to do something that seems impossible. Don’t give up.
Pray about it. Ask for help from God. Then do all you can do to solve the problem and trust God that he will give you wisdom.
We never know what a day will bring. Sometimes we we have plans and they get changed. Sometimes we have no plans and then something comes up that we did not expect. The key is be flexible.
Always be ready to change your plans if necessary. God has a plan for our lives and he wants to use us. If we are not willing to follow Him immediately, we can miss out on a great blessing.
Carolyn Curtis, cofounder of SOS Events Ministry, had the opportunity to speak to a wonderful group of women at Orange Park Baptist Church on Saturday.
It is always a blessing to share her story with others. Giving opportunity for them to accept Jesus as their Savior, and Christians to serve the LORD.
In this photo she reminds the audience that time is short. We must use the time wisely and use every opportunity to tell others about Jesus.
See then that ye walk circumspectly, not as fools, but as wise, Redeeming the time, because the days are evil. Ephesians 5:15 & 16
We can rejoice everyday because the LORD made the day. There are days that we may not feel like rejoicing.
But this Psalm tells us of all the things God has promised to His children. Even in tough times we can rejoice because God is with us.
So today, if you are having a great day, rejoice. If your day is full of trouble or sorrow you still can still rejoice in the LORD because of what He has done for you.
A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. Matthew 18:24
If you have a friend or many friends, you are truly blessed.
Friendship is one of God’s gifts to us.
There is One Friend who is the most important friend of all. He is the LORD, JESUS.
He is the friend who you can count on no matter what happens in your life. Good times and bad, He is always with you.
How can He become your best friend? Believe He died, was buried and rose again. Ask Him to forgive your sin. Invite Him into your life.
Thank Him for being your friend.
