Nothing is too Hard for Thee

 

"Ah Lord GOD! behold, Thou hast made the heaven

and the earth by Thy great power and stretched out arm,

and there is nothing too hard for Thee:” Jeremiah  32:17

 

Make me a Blessing

Written by: Ira B. Wilson

1 Out in the highways and byways of life,

Many are weary and sad;

Carry the sunshine where darkness is rife,

Making the sorrowing glad.

Refrain:

Make me a blessing, make me a blessing,

Out of my life may Jesus shine;

Make me a blessing, O Savior, I pray,

Make me a blessing to someone today.

2 Tell the sweet story of Christ and His love,

Tell of His pow'r to forgive;

Others will trust Him if only you prove

True, every moment you live.

 (Refrain)

3 Give as 'twas given to you in you need,

Love as the Master loved you;

Be to the helpless a helper indeed,

Unto your mission be true. (Refrain)

Rejoice in the Lord

Where you are today is no accident.  

God is using the situation you are in right now 
to shape you, and prepare you for the place 
He wants to bring you into tomorrow.  

Trust Him with His plan, even if you don't understand it

God Says in His Holy Word...

In view of the recent great sinful decision, made by the Supreme Court in this land:

O earth, earth, earth, hear the word of the Lord.

 Jeremiah 22:29

4.  Have ye not read, that He which made them at the beginning made them
male and female, 5. And said, For this cause shall a man leave
father and mother, and shall cleave to his wife: and they twain shall be one flesh? 

 6. Wherefore they are no more twain, but one flesh.

 What therefore God hath joined together, let not man put asunder. 

Matthew 19:4-6
 
 ... yea, let God be true, but every man a liar;
Romans 3:4a

 So shall they fear the name of the Lord from the west,
and His glory from the rising of the sun.
When the enemy shall come in like a flood,
the Spirit of the Lord shall lift up a standard against him.
Isaiah 59:19

...the Lamb shall overcome them: for He is Lord of lords, 
and King of kings: and they that are with Him are called, and chosen, and faithful.
Revelation 17:14b

In the Center of God's Will

There is no better place to be than in the center of God’s will 

– except in His presence. 
-Mateo

Day 1-Giving Thanks

 I want to begin a series of 14 blog posts, on thankfulness-
I may not post a new one everyday, but just share on here as the Lord leads.
We have so much to thank Him for! And I specifically want to thank God
for everything He has given me in Christ...especially for His amazing love and grace!
 
In every thing give thanks: for this is the 
will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
  1 Thessalonians 5:18

(Day 1)
 Thanking God for my friend's and family!

Friends are like the warm blue sea, 

They splash laughter into your eyes. 

Karen Reynolds

A man that hath friends must shew himself friendly: 

and there is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother. 

Proverbs 18:24

What is something you are thanking God for today?
 I would love to hear your thoughts and comments!

Magnify the Lord

O magnify the LORD with me, and let us exalt His name together. 

 Psalm 34:3

And in that day shall ye say, Praise the LORD, call upon His name, 

 declare His doings among the people, make mention that His name is exalted. 

Isaiah 12:4

Redeeming the Time

 

Treasure every moment that you have! 

And treasure it more because you spent it for Jesus Christ and His Kingdom.

And remember that time waits for no one. Yesterday is history.

 Tomorrow is a mystery. Today is a gift. That's why it's called the present!

Spend your time wisely!

To talk with God, no breath is lost-talk on! 

To walk with God, no strength is lost-walk on!

To wait on God, no time is lost-wait on!

-Unknown

For since the beginning of the world men have not heard,

 nor perceived by the ear, neither hath the eye seen,

 O God, beside Thee, what He hath prepared for him that waiteth for Him.

Isaiah 64:4

I Asked the Lord

     

"He is Sovereign, Loving, Kind, nothing this truth can dim, 
He gives the very best to those who leave the choice with Him.
My Jesus, Saviour, Shepherd, Friend!"

Written by: John Newton

I asked the Lord that I might grow
In faith, and love, and every grace;
Might more of His salvation know,
And seek, more earnestly, His face.

’Twas He who taught me thus to pray,
And He, I trust, has answered prayer!
But it has been in such a way,
As almost drove me to despair.

I hoped that in some favored hour,
At once He’d answer my request;
And by His love’s constraining pow’r,
Subdue my sins, and give me rest.

Instead of this, He made me feel
The hidden evils of my heart;
And let the angry pow’rs of hell
Assault my soul in every part.

Yea more, with His own hand He seemed
Intent to aggravate my woe;
Crossed all the fair designs I schemed,
Humbled my heart, and laid me low.

Lord, why is this, I trembling cried,
Wilt thou pursue thy worm to death?
“’Tis in this way, the Lord replied,
I answer prayer for grace and faith.

These inward trials I employ,
From self, and pride, to set thee free;
And break thy schemes of earthly joy,
That thou may’st find thy all in Me.”

Take Heed

Jesus said: I came not to call the righteous, but sinners to repentance.
Luke 5:32

...and thou shalt call his name JESUS: for He shall save His people from their sins.
Matthew 5:21

Do you know Him? Does He know YOU?

He looketh upon men, and if any say, I have sinned, 

and perverted that which was right, and it profited me not;
  He will deliver his soul from going into the pit, 

and his life shall see the light. 

Job 33:27-28

In Christ Alone

“It is not the strength of your faith but the object of your faith that actually saves you.”

(Unknown) 

He that believeth on the Son hath everlasting life:
and he that believeth not the Son shall not see life;
but the wrath of God abideth on him.
John 3:36

Wait on the Lord
