We Trust God that we are saved through the blood of Christ. That we are heaven bound.But do we trust him when we are sick,When our month is longer then our paycheck,When something breaks down & we don't have the money to fix it?
Do we entrust him with our day when we first wake up, do we trust him to watch over our kids, Do we trust him to save our unsaved loved ones?
Psalm 20 V 7&8 ,Isaiah 12 V2&3 Prov 28 V 26. Please read and be advised.
Trust is a requirement for our christian walk. Commit everything in trust to the Lord.
Trusting God is the match that lights my faith to move forward and will move the mountains in my life.
Do you have a mountain in your life? Commit it to God, trusting with faith he will make it into a mole hill! May Gods rich blessings be yours today and every day!

Charactor in Action
We Have been discussing the last days in dept now lets us look at the corrector that God requires us to have in order for us to gain heaven as our reward.
Romans Ch 12 V 9 Let love be without Hypocesy ( Sincere) Abhor ( Hate) which is evil, cling to what is good
V10 Be devoted to one another in brotherly love . Honor one another above yourselves.
Rom 12 V 13 Share with Gods people who are in Need . Practice hospitality .
I believe actions speak louder then words .. If there is some one you know in need , Help them !
I have started a movement in my church each week , we make a point to do a random act of kindness to someone in our community , I believe it is something that will go from person to person resulting in more people each day doing small kindnesses to their neighbors ... Try it it works!
Rom 12 V 15 Rejoice with them that do rejoicee and weep with those that weep. Practice compassion . Its easy to be around happy people , they really don't need the help ,but the one that is going through a crises is the one that needs your support.Be there for them, Jesus would !
Rom 12V12 Rejoicing in Hope ,Patient in tribulation continuing diligently in prayer..These are some of the characteristics that will move you closer to heaven.... Until next time may God richly bless you ...

End of Days series #3
Just why did God saved Noah from the flood or Gods Judgement?
Gen. Ch 6 V 9 Noah was a righteous man blameless among the people of his time. What made Him righteous? What did he do to save himself and his family from the flood. Remember the earth was filled with violence, idolatry, & evil thinking. Reminds me of today's society!
Noah was righteous and Blameless.How would we describe who he was ? Well from the scriptures it indicates he was a Godly man, Faultless ,Blameless, unblemished by the evil around him.
If Noah escaped the flood then his personality and his relationship with God was the reason for his escape along with his wife ,sons and their wives. What must we have in our life style to escape the tribulation & be included in the rapture? Next week we will discuss what we must do to secure our place , when that time comes ... Until next week may God richly bless you and yours feel free to email me with prayer requests @ pasosprayers@yahoo.com

The end of Days Series # 2
Last week I accidentally put the first entry of this series on my horse blog ,after thinking about it I decided to leave it where it is as Horse People are interested in Bible thoughts too! So to get the first entry of this series please go to www.horsetalessalestips.blogspot.com .
I will make sure in the future I will keep these thought on one site. :} Sorry about that!
Now in Genesis ch 6 V 5 ; And God saw the wickedness of man was great on the earth . Imagination ( Reasoning) of the thoughts was only evil continually. The next verse stated God was grieved in his heart.
Ch 6 V 9: Noah was a just man and perfect in his generations and Noah walked with God.
Ch 6 V12; The earth was also corrupt before God and the earth was filled with violence.
Matt Ch;24 V 37 But as the days of Noah were ,so shell also the coming of the Son of man( Jesus) be....
As we look at these scriptures does there seem to be something familiar about these statements?
Look at our culture today...Do our children have the same respect as we did when we were kids?
Does our education system teach morals ,and honor or tolerance and disrespect for our values that we knew as children?
Do we see more lawlessness and crime and less moral conscious or are we indifferent to tradigy because we see so much of it . Are these things what happened in the days of Noah? What will happen next ? Where do we stand? will it get worse ? What will God do about it .... this is what we will explore in the next few entries Until next time may God keep you in his care ....

Again , about love
In My last entry I said I was going to talk about what was NOT love , however as I thought about it I realized that all one has to do is watch the 6 O'Clock news . There will be lots of unloving stuff there!
I feel the need to discuss that love is most well served when we attach something to it .Like action... We can say we love everyone or everything but not showing something that demonstrates that love doesn't do much . Ist John Ch 3 - V 16 states This is how we know what love is ; Jesus Christ laid down his life for us. And In Ist John Ch 3 - V 18. Dear children let us not love with words or tongue but with action & truth.
Love requires action if we are to demonstrate Christian values . It's simple, a phone call to someone who is sick, a card of thanks to someone that has been kind to you, a hug for a friend, an offer of a helping hand , a gift, Groceries for a family in need , on and on... Love needs to be demonstrated in action . We live in a culture that has become selfserving, we live in little boxed worlds that don't reach out to others and its time to get back to the good neighbor mentality and start changing the world, one good deed at a time.... Until next time May God richly Bless you....

What is love ?
What do you call Love? Well Love is Patient 1Cor 13 V's 4-8 It is Kind , It is Humble,Its Not self serving but serves others. A person that loves puts others before themselves.A person that has love in their life has a Christ like attitude. They comfort others. they help others at all costs.They listen to others with compassion and kindness,they have a heart after God! Next time we will look at what Love Isn't!

Children of today
In Proverbs ch 22V;6 Its states Train a child in the way he should go and when he is old he will not depart from it!
I wonder, when I see so many undisciplined children , what will become of them when they are older.
I hear of some children in schools that are hard to teach because they have not been taught Boundaries. They are also not taught how to deal with disappointments. then when they become adults they become unglued when they have to face hardships or disappointments.
We as parents have the responsibility to teach Bible principles to our children so they will have the knowledge to conduct their lives in a productive honorable manor.
Jeremiah Ch:17 V:10 I The Lord search the heart and examine the mind , to reward a man according to his conduct. according to what his deeds deserve! Read the Bible to your children , dicipline them and teach them that disappointment's in life pass, and to look forward to what Gods has planed for them ! Until next time may God give you his wisdom!

Feel Like things are comming against you?
In these troubled times ,it seems negative stuff just pile up! One thing after another and far too little positive happenings!
Isaiah ch 54 V 17 states No weapon forged against you will prevail and will refute every tongue that accuses you . This is the heritage of the servants of the Lord,this is their vindication from me!
When times are hard we have a tendency to think God just doesn't care about my little troubles ,he has bigger fish to fry. YES HE DOES CARE ! 2Nd Cor Ch 10 V 4 says , The weapons we fight with, are not the weapons of the world, on the contrary,They have Devinne power to demolish Strongholds V5 We demolish arguments and every pretension that set its self up against the knowledge of God and we take CAPTIVE every thought to make it obedient to Christ . The evil one gives us suggestions that are discouraging in nature . He loves to tell us we have failed, things will never get better ,its all our fault .. The bible says he is a lier the father of lies, don't except his suggestions ,those fiery darts . Stand against them God is on your side . Give the problem to him he will carry the Load, all he asks is for you is to trust him and he will see you through! Until next time may God richly Bless you!

Services of the Church
We will discuss the order of Church services. They vary from denomination to denomination and fellowship group . However for the most part they are Worship,Prayer, and the word of God... I will attempt to discuss each part separately and what the functions are for the believer . First let us look at worship , some call it song service ,but In my opinion it should be worship not just singing happy songs and when I get to Heaven...Our Mind set should be on our heavenly Father in Praise and adoration for all he has done for us! Heb 12;28 States
Therefore ,since we are receiving a Kingdom that can not be shaken, let us be thankful, and so worship God!
2nd Samuel 22:50 states Therefore I will praise you O Lord among the nations, I will sing praises to your name!
1St Chron: 16:23 Sing to him,Sing praises to him,Tell of all his wonderful acts..
We must have our minds and our hearts in tune with our Heavenly Father in adoration and honor. Next time we will discuss Prayer until then may God keep you in his care & Bless you!

Are You A Light ?
Matt 5:V14 Jesus said , You are the light of the world. Matt; 5: V 16 In The same way let your light shine before men,that they may see your good deeds and praise your Father in heaven.
In many cases we are the only Jesus some people will ever see . They may not attend a church or even have a Christian background . Our lives , and how we conduct our daily life can be a mirror of the light that Jesus talked about in the scriptures . The charactor of Jesus must be a strong influence on everything we do or say .. If we miss represent our Lord it could be a stumbling block to those that don't know Jesus as Lord .. On the other hand if we represent our Lord well ,it may be the drawing process That brings an unbeliever to the light... Like a Moth, drown to the light in the darkness ,may we be the light that draws men and women to Christ.

Earthquakes in Various places!!
In the Bibles Book of Matthew Chapter 24 V 7 It states Nations will rise against nations,and kingdom against kingdom. There will be famines and EARTHQUAKES in various places. All these are the beginning of birth pains..Jesus himself spoke of what to watch for in the last days before the tribulation and the rapture of the church.. We as Christians need to be mindful of these difficult times, as they are a sign of this age in time to close . Pray for love ones , neighbors, and friends that they will come to see the times we are living in. Pray also for the people of Heiti !
I will continue thoughts and signs of the end times ...Untill next time , May God bless you as we await for the return of our Lord and savior Jesus ,King of all Kings!

2012 the end or what??
We hear so much about 2012 ,that one wonders if it is correct, or just another crazy idea. I intend to go over the scriptures in the bible for then next several entries and we shell look what God has to say about this subject... Then you can draw your conclusions.
I will start with Matt. 24.37: As It was in the days of Noah so will it be of the coming of the Son of man. Continue to read on your own to V;44
First of all , we need to look at the culture in that day , It was evil, lawless, ungodly to name a few, And today all one has to do is look across the Internet to experience filthy language , Porn, gambling , just to name a few.. The same scenario! God cleansed the earth with the flood , what will he do next... So many scriptures address this. Remember Noah warned the people of the coming disaster but they wouldn't listen, just as there are scoffers today ! There is a change coming and isn't with Obama... The Lord has his warnings in the Bible, but also his shelter and escape ... 2012 ? Well we will not know the day or the hour , but the time and the season. We will have evidence of a change coming. Next time we will discuss this further... until then ,May God Keep you in his care!

Is God in Control ... you Bet he is!
As we look around us , we hear about political upheaval, children getting snatched away from their family's , people out of work and wars. One has to wonder what in the world is going on?
My heart breaks at some of the stories I hear when I get prayer requests...The Bible tell us it rains on the just and the unjust and God is no respecter of persons ,but we still ask why.. Perhaps its not for us to know in these last days.
I think ,if all this grieves me ,what does it do to God own heart.. In second Corinthians V: 3 the bible states : Praise be to God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ the father of compassion and the God of all , (V4) Who comforts us in all our troubles so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God.
We need to ask our heavenly Father for the comfort he freely gives those who sincerely ask of him.
We may not understand the times we live in but God does and he has a plan that includes you and me! Until next time, may you go in Gods peace

The Choices we make!
Have you ever thought of the choices you have made? Well I have , and some blunders too. It's funny, when at times, I knew they were wrong ,I did them anyway. The results wasn't always good either! In a culture where moral decline is everywhere it seems that the wrong choices are easier to make ,after all the responsibility of ones actions just isn't there anymore. It's a do it anyway culture or if its isn't lawful just don't get caught!
God gives us choices, free will to choose what we do with our lives. In Joshua Ch. 24 V. 14 now fear the Lord and serve him with all faithfulness . Then in Ch. 15 It states : But if serving the Lord seems undesirable to you, then choose for yourself whom you will serve. Then on in the scripture it says : but as for me and my household we will serve the Lord ! Yes It's not so popular to be a christian in some places but think ,if what the Bible says is true ,and where you spend eternity is made by the choices you make in this life then where will I go ,to Heaven when I die or to hell? The choice is mine! Until next time may God lead you in his pathways.

Wars, wars, and what next?
In Matt; Ch 24 V 6 & 7 the Bible states , You will hear of wars & Rumors of wars but see that you are not alarmed ,such things must happen ,but the end is still to come ! Nations will rise against ,kingdom's. There will be famines and earth quakes in various places.All these are the beginning of birth pains.
Having had children ,I know the signs of pending birth and as a Christian we need to know the sings of Jesus return for the believer. In Matt. Ch 24 V 27 it states, As it were in the days of Noah so will it be at the coming of the son of man.
God caused the flood to cleanse the earth of mankind's sin but spared Noah's & Family as he will the family of God just before the great tribulation! Are You watching and are you ready? Until next time , may you seek the freedom and blessing of a life through salvation in Jesus!

Are you worried?
Matt: 11 V28 states, Come to me ,all you who are weary and burdened & I will give you rest.
So many are struggling with keeping up with , job loss ,and the cost of living in general. We understand .We live on a retirement fixed income . Our hearts go out to the ones that have lost their jobs, and even their homes. I find comfort in the word of God! Have you ever looked up all the scriptures that speak of Gods love ? There are more then any other as far as I know. God Loves us, he cares about our struggles. In Phil. Ch 4 V: 19 he states , My God will meet all your needs according to his glorious riches in Christ Jesus. Trust God ,he is our father, he will see us through this economic mess .He, and he ,alone has all the answers! Until next time may God keep you in his care!

What is going on?
As I watch the news on politics, economy and everyday tragedies . I wonder if the world has lost its mind! What is all this stuff coming to . Every day or so I see something that I express, well.., that tops all , and then, guess what,something else does top that, and I'm shocked again...People are running two and frow looking to be entertained ,find answers ,or to escape something! They seem to be never satisfied ! I read today in 1st Thes. Chap.V 11&12 ; Make it your ambition to lead a quite life, to mind your own business and work with your hands ,just as I told you (11) So that your daily life may win the respect of outsiders and so that you will not be dependent on anybody.
We hear about so many life's tragedies and yet we have the opportunity to live in peace, in quite trust in Gods grace and trusting Jesus our savior to give us hope in our everyday life. May his blessings be yours each and every day! Until next time Keep the hope!

In Troubled Times
If We look at the economy, politics,crime & joblessness one tends to get the feeling of helpless. So many things seem to be out of control.
1st Peter Chap. 5 V 7 states; Cast all your anxiety on him because he cares for you . I know its hard to trust God when the end of your money comes before the end of the Bills . I'm there too, but God knows are every need!
In Hebrews Ch 4 V 16 Says, Lets us then approach the throne of grace with confidence so that we may receive mercy and find grace to help us in our time of need. Ask The Lord ,he is there to hear you. God has a plan and cares for each one of us! Until next time may you stand firm in his love and grace!

Gods Grace!
John Ch 1 V 16 : From the fullness of his grace we have all received one blessing after another.
You and I are blessed because of Jesus obedience at the cross. Today we can enjoy Gods blessings not because of what we have done but of what he has done!
Grace is free but it was not cheap. It cost God his only son. Remember John Ch 3 V 16 . God so love the world that he gave his only begotten son that whosoever believes in him would not Parrish but would have eternal life! What an awesome promise!
Until next time may Gods abundant Grace be a blessing in your life!

Its a Good day!
In Psalms Ch 118 V 24 its states ; This is the day the Lord has made ; Let us rejoice & be glad in it..
Sometimes its hard to be positive when the cost of living is so high , the gas and food prices are depressing to say the least. However we have to remember God is in control!
In First John chap 3 V1 Says How Great the love the father has lavished on us that we should be called the children of God!
He knows just what is in our hearts & he cares about our struggles. Trust him he will be with you through everything!!

Am I going to heaven ?
That's a question we all ask at one time or another! Men have pondered that question through the century's.
John ch 3 V 16 states : For God so loved the world that he gave his only Son that whoever believes in him shall not Parrish but have eternal life.
Then in John Ch 6 V40 states : For my Father's will is that everyone who looks to the Son and believes in him shall have eternal life ,and will be raised up at the last day.
What does that mean? Simple If we realise in our hearts that Jesus came to be an sin offering and die in our behalf and we except that sacrifice for our own , confess our sins to the father , take upon ourselves the principals that Jesus taught in the bible we will have eternal life in heaven.. Simple say Jesus I except your sacrifice for my sins please forgive me of my sins and come into my life and lead me from this day forth! If you have done this..... Congratulations you have just entered the family of God we will have eternity together with Jesus our savior!

Wars,Wars & more Wars
Jesus disciples asked him ,What are the the signs of your coming and the end of the age?
Mat ch 24: V 6,7,8 states: You will hear of wars and rumors of wars, but see to it you are not alarmed . Such things must happen but the end is still to come . Nations will ride up against nations ,kingdoms against Kingdoms. There will famine's and earthquakes in various places, all these are the beginning of the birth pains.
I have had 10 kids and I personally know when labor begins ,that the birth of the baby is inevitable.
The return of Jesus is also! Whats important is whether we are ready to meet him .
Jesus died in our behalf, he took upon his self on the cross our sins and died for us so we could have eternal life through him.
If we except his sacrifice and ask him to forgive us are sins and lead us in life & except him as saviour ,we will have eternal life with him.
He is coming soon . Folks the labor has begun ! Are You Ready ?

The Cost Of Things
Are you perplexed with the cost of things? Well I am ! I just shake my head when I go to the grocery store or get my utility bills & think will this inflation ever end? Yet I am reminded in the Bible Romans Ch 8; V 31 & 32 : What then shell we say in response to this ? If God is for us who can be against us? He who did not spare his own son, but gave him greaciously, gives us all things. In other words Gods is control and Knows our needs:

Energy drinks,bars & pills
Everyone seems to be tired! Tired of something. Too much work, politics, depressing news or just plain worn out!
We run to the grocery store & buy energy drinks, protein bars or that vitamin that hopeful will give the boost we need to get through the day, yet we fail to go to the source of all creation, the one that made us who we are.
Psalm Ch 29 V 11 says ; The Lord gives strength to his people: the Lord blesses his people with peace
Phil Ch: 4 V 13: I can do everything through him who gives me strength.
Perhaps instead of that bottle of energy stuff, we would be better served if we stopped for a few minutes and read the bible and reflected on what Jesus did for us & The hope he has provided . That can surly can put a spring in our step , joy for our future and renew us in Many ways!
Until next time may God bless you with His strength!

In A Changing World
We live in a world that is changing so fast one can hardly keep up. Technology, socially, & environmental issues are moving forward at a pace that hardly any one can keep up with. Even people's thoughts , insites, and opinions are giving way to new ideas. How ever if you feel a little overwhelmed with all this new thinking ...I know one that doesn't change with the trends ...In James Ch 1 V 16 & 17 The bible teaches Don't be deceived, my brothers, Every good & Perfect gift is from the father of heavenly lights, who does NOT CHANGE like shifting shadows.
I look for stability in a changing world. I find it in the word of God. Jesus reveled to us how to live in a world that is troubling, he leaves us with hope of eternal life through him ... Until next time may God Give you his unchanging Peace.

How close are you to the Lord?
James Ch.4: v 8 States, Come near to God and he will come near to you.
Our heavenly Father respects your space. He will not intrude into your life unless you wish him to be there.
He loves you unconditionally, but he wants you to be the one to reach out to him first.
If you feel like God is a far off ,it may be because you have neglected your relationship with the Lord.
Pslms 145: V 18 Says, The Lord is near to all who call on him,to all who call on him in truth.
If your hearts are sincere ,he will hear !
May God bless you with his nearness , until next time......

The Lord know's who you are!
With so many people in the world we sometimes feel ,How can our heavenly father really know what I'm going through! Psalms 139 V:1 Oh Lord, you have searched me and you know me.V2: You know when I sit and when I rise; you perceive my thoughts from afar.V3; you discern my going out and my lying down you are familiar with all my ways.
God is nearer then we realise ... Even when you are tired the bible teaches the joy of the Lord is my strength.. How can we not be joyful when our heavenly father is near us all the time and we can have the confidence that he loves us dearly!
Until next time my our father bless you and fill your heart with His Joy!

How is your Faith ?
Hebrews 11 V.1 It states : Now faith is being sure of what we hope for and certain of what we do not see.
Faith is the hope that motivates us to move forward.If we didn't feel God was in control of our lives ,we would stay in the same place and never grow beyond that!
Hebrews 11V7 Says By faith Noah when warned of things not yet seen, in Holy fear built the ark to save his family.
I have often been scoffed at when I have told people I'm going to move forward in faith that God will move in this situation . God has always met me after I have taken the first step of faith in many situations. At times I have had to wait a while before God moved but he always has.
Noah didn't even know what rain was at that time in History, but he trusted God . I can imagine the scenario, People were saying Look at that old man building a boat like that . What can he use it for, fishing ! Hehe What a fool! But in the end Noah had the victory! So don't be afraid to step out in faith. God will be there!
Until next time May god richly Bless you !

Bad weather, Violence, Wars, Ressession ,what next?
In Luke the 21st verse 10 & 11 Jesus states: Nations will rise up against nations ,and kingdoms against kingdoms.There will be Great earth quakes , famines ,and pestilences in Various places and fearful events, and great signs from the heaven. This occurs before Jesus takes out the believers ( Those Committed to Jesus for remission for sins) from the earth before the great tribulation. I know, I know ,what you are going to say ,People have been squawking about this very thing for centuries! But If you don't see the change in morality, weather patterns, Violence, its not global warming its signs of the end times ! All the changes we are seeing has been predicted in the bible. I'm not a doom and gloom person . I believe Christianity is a positive way of life , its true peace begotten from God the Father .. I'm just stating what the bible says. We need to all get ready for this wonderful event. Jesus is coming Soon!
Until next time may God give you his peace.

Need to feel Loved?
Have you ever felt unloved? Or maybe just alone? There has been times in my life that I have felt both ! Now with the political sean, bad weather ,and economy problems we all have a tendency to feel lost and alone ... The scriptures tell us not to look on our problems but to look toward the Lord!
First John CH:3 V1 says How great is the love the Father has lavished on us,that we should be called children God! And that is what we are.
God loved us enough to send his only begotten son to redeem us and he surly cares about our troubles...Until next time MAY Gods peace and blessings be yours!!

In Times of stress
Are you troubled about all the tragic weather situations or the cost of living ?
Well I sometimes get perplexed concerning the times we live in and what I see going on in the news. However in Psalms 107 V 28,29,&30 David says : They cried out to the Lord in their trouble,and he brought them out of their distress, He stilled the storm to a whisper ,the waves of the sea were hushed,They were glad when it grew calm,and he guided them to their desired haven!
God is in control , we forget that at times when we focus on the problem and not on the lord. He will see you through! Until next time my God give you HIS peace....

Of What Value are we?
I have been watching the birds in our yard. The swallows have arrived and are busy dabbing mud under the eves of the house. The sparrows are darting two and from caring twigs and grasses to build their nests. We have hundreds of birds on the farm.
Jesus remarked concerning the sparrow: Starting in Matt: 10 V 29: He says are not two sparrows sold for a penny? yet not one of them fall to the ground apart from the will of your father.V30 And even the very hairs of your head are all numbered.V 31 so don't be afraid;you are worth more then many sparrows.
Our heavenly Father know every fascists of his creation from the birds to human kind, His care for us is never ending . He is so familiar with us he knows how many hairs we have on our head, and considering that we louse and grow our hair all the time. We ponder as to how God can possibly keep track of all of us. Simply he created the universe and he can keep track of you and your needs , He cares!
Until Next time; My you know your heavenly is always near, He loves you!

What are your favorite foods
I just finished dinner . I was hungry and had a grilled cheese sandwich and a green vegetable , will have some of my home made peach pie for dessert a little later. I love some foods, like Chocolate , salads ,and steak to mention a few ... But all the food in the world will not give me peace in the heart and soul. Jesus said in John Ch 6 ,V:35 : Then Jesus declared : I am the bread of life he who COMES to me will never go hungry,and he who BELIEVES in me will never be thirsty.
It takes more then physical food to permute a peaceful heart and soul it takes spiritual food also: May we partake in both for good health and peace of mind! Until next time My God keep you in his care..

The decisions you make
I recently visited a young man that was injured on a ATV last summer. His spine was damaged in the accident and he lost the use of both legs. Fortunately Now, he has regained the use of his right leg and can twitch his left leg ever so slight. This tell us his damaged nerves are mending and there is hope for him to be able to walk again. In our conversation we discussed how he has changed his thinking due to his circumstances. When he was well all he thought about was having fun and a good time, he says now, all he can think about is being able to walk again. A good time is past tense.
Our everyday decisions , can drastically alter our future whether its starting a new job, what we do for recreation , what company we keep and what life style that company partakes in . Even small simple decisions we make, Driving too fast, not eating right or keeping the wrong company can change us for a lifetime. In 1st. Cor: 10 V. 23 the Bible states Everything is permissible -but not everything is beneficial.Everything is permissible but not everything is constructive.. We need to weigh all the risks and benefits in all we do so we make the right decisions . Because what you decide may last a lifetime Good or bad! Until next time may God richly Bless you

Foods in the bible
Recently I decided to do a search on Bible foods I found: Grapes, wine, Olives, Olive oil , wheat ,pomegranates, I saw on T.V the other day a Dr. saying that two ounces of pomegranate juice in the morning and two oz in the evening will remove all the plaque in ones arteries. It takes only three month to remove the build up of years! I some how believe that the foods in the Bible had all that one needs to remain healthy, anyway here are some more foods Figs, Dates, honey, fish, Barley, Almond, milk, beef ,lamb & mustard... I'm sure there is more.. In First Cor V 19 : Do you not know that your body is the temple of the Holy spirit,whom is in you Whom you have received from God?You are not your own; V 20: You were bought at a price therefore Honor God with your body. Admittedly I like junk food but I refrain from it as much as I can. I am reminded to show God respect so I need to eat properly and take care of the temple of the Holy spirit.

The Mirror
Looking in the mirror this morning and inspecting my ageing face, I consider what improvements I could make ,wrinkle cream, new hair color . I have decided that getting older isn't for the faint of heart.In fact getting older in my view is down right disgusting! Which brings me to the word of God concerning the mirror! James :V;22 Do not merely listen to the word,and so deceive yourselves. Do what it says V:23 Anyone who listens to the word but does not do what it says is like a man who looks at his face in a mirror V24: and after looking at himself goes away and immediately forgets what he looks like. V:25 But the man that looks intently into the perfect law that's gives freedom and continues to do this,Not forgetting what he has heard, BUT DOING IT--He will be blessed in what he does. What a marvelous promise!
I rejoice that the word of God will never age but will be the same for ever. Unlike the face in the mirror I observed this morning. May God bless you until next time......

Obedient Children
I have had grandchildren visiting . My little granddaughter at four years old is smart as can be. But she has a rebellious streak. When she wants to do something she is sweet as can be but when she is doing her own thing and you want her to be cautious and careful because it mite be dangerous for her she pretends she doesn't hear you and just goes on doing what you don't want her to do.
I was thinking how much that's like us . when we know something isn't pleasing to our heavenly father and we hear that still small voice , we pertend we don't hear it and go on doing what is dangerous for us. In First peter Verse 14 it states: As obedient children do not conform to the evil desires when you lived in ignorance.V 5: But just as he has called you as holy,so be holy in all you do. We need to listen to the voice of right and wrong in our hearts ,as it will keep us out of a lot of trouble! Until next time May you be listing for the voice of our Heavenly Father and may he bless your day

Does the world seem dark to me?
At times I tend to see my glass half empty then half full,and with all the stuff in the world going wrong with the war, families killing each other, Gas prices ,and life in general, I realise I'm looking at the wrong source for encouragement and strength . I need to see my glass as full not half of anything, and the world as not bl eek but with Hope for the future. In psalm 119:105 It states Your word is a lamp to my feet and a light for my path.So when I feel like I'm in darkness I need to go to the bible for the light. John 8:12 When Jesus again spoke to the people he said:I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness,but will have the light of life. This is such a comfort to me! Until next time May God bless your day!

We are Gods Children
I often think how insignificant I am in this big world of ours . Thinking who am I in this great system we call life ,but God reminds me from his word In First John Chapter 3 :1 How Great is the Love the father has lavished on us, that we should be called the children of God! and that is what we are! God knew us before we were even born and Loved us so much he to gave his Son so that we mite be redeemed unto himself. Until next time May our Father richly Bless you!
