teach us to number our days ...

Psalm 90 is always an encouraging read ... this morning, verse 12 reminded me of the brevity of life ... so i made a poster, using a picture i took in 2012 of the sunrise at the town beach ... just sharing ...

what you put in the well, comes up in the bucket ...

we listened to an excellent message by Charles Stanley this morning ... he was talking about how our minds are the control tower of our thoughts and actions ... it reminded me of Philippians 4:8 ... we need to feed our minds and think on good things ... and also to filter our thoughts through God's Word ... it's the basics that i may forget from time to time ... a reminder to myself!

the fruit of the spirit is love ...

for such a time as this ... 
the message of Jesus is peaceful and full of love ...

warning ...

we are starting off January in the red ... as this screen capture of environment canada clearly shows  ... the extreme weather alerts cover the land ... it's good that these warnings are there ... otherwise, how will the traveler know to prepare? 

these warnings made me think of God's word ... the bible ... we have been able to read the warnings for humanity, if they don't turn to GOD ... the Father even sent His own Son, Jesus ... who gave us the way (John 3:16) to escape the extreme conditions that will hit the planet earth one day (soon?) ... yet many have not heard ... don't care ... won't believe ...  

just like the person who goes on a trip, gets caught in bad weather and says no one told them ... YES THEY DID ... but we all have to search out the information ... the warnings are everywhere ... everywhere ... and only the wise listen, then act upon it ...

For God so loved the world, that he gave his only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in him should not perish, but have everlasting life.  For God sent not his Son into the world to condemn the world; but that the world through him might be saved.

John 3:16-17

Happy New Year!
