Daily scripture and thoughts and more

Rejoice in hope, be patient in tribulation, be constant in prayer. Contribute to the needs of the saints and seek to show hospitality. (Romans 12:12, 13 ESV)

Dear Ones
Rejoicing in Hope- how do you do that when everything around you seems to be to hard to rejoice over but It is only in the HOPE that lies with in we can rejoice. Being patient in our tribulation or trial sometimes is hard  when that trial or tribulation seems to be overtaking your life but be in constant prayer. Prayer: I  fail in this department. I wish I can say I am always in prayer with my Lord. I wish I could say that I am faithful in this area but I would be lying. Truth be told- I desire so badly for this area of my life to change.  Lord give me strength  to overcome and be faithful in prayer to you.

Contribute to the needs of the Saints and seek to show hospitality- contributing does not seem hard for the Body of Christ but Hospitality seems to be a struggle with in the Body. People do not want to show Hospitality because then people will see them in their own environment. Transparency is necessary and many have no desire to be transparent in there walk with Christ.


May this Word speak to your hearts...

Today we went to a funeral of the 5 month old baby I posted about earlier this week. Her little face was like one of a porcelain doll. She looks so precious and so peaceful.  The service was beautiful and my beloved's message was words of encouragement in to the believer and to bring hope for the lost.

When this assignment came through I was going to share  prayer request for a much needed rental home, and new job for my beloved, but in a blink of an eye those things were no longer a concern. A truly serious, and sobering matter occurred. I was not sure how to share with all of you this matter- and how desperate I was. I was not sure how to even lift my eyes towards heaven for fear that he would not hear me, or not even want what I was wanting.  I was not sure I could handle a loss of my child. My baby- my eldest- He is 18 years old, 6 days ago he started to develop these sharp pains that would shoot to the back of his eyes. At first he described them as a headache, but he realized it was not headache, and started to complain more of the pain, and stated that pain relievers were not working. I made a doctors appointment. When the do...

Traditions…

At this time of the year everyone is filled with traditions. Things they do every year  to prepare their hearts to celebrate the greatest, and truest meaning of this season- celebrating the Birth of our Savior. We are no exception.. we started this tradition last year. Our hearts were to focus ourselves completely on what we are celebrating and why we are celebrating it so every evening, we light these candles…   gather around the table to read the scripture for the night, we sing the corresponding carol/hymn, then daddy reads a story. The story normally goes with which every figure we must pull and set up for our nativity scene. So far this is what we have out: The Donkey was first- because he carried Mary to Bethlehem, then the cow- was probably in the stable, the sheep were probably brought by the Shepherds who came to see the Savior, and then the Shepherd. This scene is such a humbling scene, one that reminds us that our Lord did not arrive in a mansion, or place b...
