The HOME to come ... and what a home it will be!

 Heaven is our true and final home, where all things will be restored.

Sunday sunday

 And isn't that something to PRAISE the LORD about!

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.

trust in the LORD

GOD is our High Tower ... our refuge ... to be in JESUS, is to be eternally safe ... repent, believe and LIVE ... 

keep looking up ...

 be wise ... keep looking up ... 

for your redemption draws near.

The Goodness of God

 I love You, Lord

Oh Your mercy never fails me
All my days
I've been held in Your hands
From the moment that I wake up
Until I lay my head
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God

All my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God

I love Your voice
You have led me through the fire
In the darkest night
You are close like no other
I've known You as a Father
I've known You as a friend
I have lived in the goodness of God
Oh

And all my life You have been faithful
All my life You have been so so good
With every breath that I am able
Oh I will sing of the goodness of God

'Cause Your goodness is running, it's running after me
Your goodness is running, it's running after me
With my life laid down, I'm surrendered now, I give You everything
Your goodness is running, it's running after me

Don't put it off ...

 Where you spend eternity is nothing to play with ... or to put off making the decision regarding Jesus ... 

Shine ...

 

Keep your heart from straying ...

 There are so many ways we stray ... But God is always ready to welcome us home ... 

God gets the glory!

 

Jesus ... salvation in no other.

for by GRACE are you saved ... and GRACE takes away fear of rejection ... God is good ... i am grateful.
 

Jesus words ...

 in our "throw away" world, where nothing seems permanent - it is good to know that Jesus' words will remain ... until HE returns for HIS Church!

Happy Mother's Day

 

the Sky scapes created by our God ...

Our Amazing Creator God ... forever grateful that I am His ... so I need not fear ... He cares and He is always always with me - for now and forever.

pray, read the Word, believe

 This ole world is not turning right ... something is up ... something is happening... but child of God - take note - God is not done with us yet.  Keep reading the Word ... keep believing HIS promises ... they are proven truth ... day in, day out.
