even ANY appearance of evil ... ABSTAIN ...


 if we are to shine for Jesus ... if we are to be the light in all this darkness ... we need to ABSTAIN from even every appearance of evil ... for me, part of that appearance is to not drink alcohol ... i come from a long line of alcoholics ... and i never once heard someone say that their life was so much better because they drank ... quite the opposite ... and ABSTAIN is a most excellent choice of word used in this verse ... to ABSTAIN takes many forms ... whichever is the one that allows your light to shine - use it ... ABSTAIN so that GOD can make the wattage of your faith that much more powerful ...

God works ... just be available.


"You will not 
need to fight in this battle. Position yourselves, stand still and see the salvation of the Lord, who is with you ... ~ " 2 Chronicles 20:17

Wherever it is that GOD has you - have no fear - HE has brought you there and will work through you  ... and sometimes we just need to be that one light, shining in the darkness ... GOD will convict the hearts of those near by who see HIS light shining through us ... the battle IS the LORD'S.

God is ABLE

Lord, by such things people live; and my spirit finds life in them too. You restored me to health and let me live.
~ Isaiah 38:16

it's been a year now since my husbands colon cancer surgery ... God has restored him back to health ... the LORD is so good, and we are grateful.
