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.

BFS #124 - The Easy Button

Assignment - This week I would like you to post any prayer requests you have. What is going on in your life that you need prayer warriors for? 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...

Hello all...

Hello my Siesta(Beth Moore's word for Sisters-Love it)  I have decided to start this online bible Blog Study that Preacher's Wife  wrote. It has already started my wheels turning in my mind and heart. The very first question:  Are there any circumstances or relationships in your life where you can see God has intentionally placed you? Yes- many! A few grow heavy in my heart! What do you perceive may be at stake if you do or do not speak out for Him? The person's soul will be lost for eternity. They will not walk with me into the gates of heaven and I will spend the rest of my eternal life knowning I did nothing, said nothing and do not do what God intended me to do. Can you Honestly describe yourself as a woman with a "yes" in her spirit? No I can not say I can- I would like to fool myself and those around you to say I am but when it comes down to it.. I have failed! If not what keeps you from this? FEAR- fear that the person will see my words as judgement and no...

What is the meaning of family or extended family to you?

One of the things about moving to Texas that we were "excited" about was the thought of having "all the family" here.(actually extended family) Grandma,grandpa,  Sam's brothers, and sister are all here.  Well we have been here almost 6 months now. I guess the newness of us being here has worn off, because we do not receive  phone calls, text messages, or emails of;" what are you all doing this weekend?"  " Do you want to get together?"  It has turned out to be just like any other time we lived in close vicinity of each other. We have become special occasion, holiday only relations.  Why is that?  How does that happen?  Is it because we live such separate lives?   Our lives are very uneventful. We spend them each day just surviving that day. We do not think of tomorrow- (that is scriptural) We do not take pleasure in vain things. I hate to shop. I love to sew. I hate going to the beauty parlor. All those things that "woman" are suppo...
