Daily scripture and thoughts

“At that time, declares the Lord, I will be the God of all the clans of Israel, and they shall be my people.” Thus says the Lord : “The people who survived the sword found grace in the wilderness; when Israel sought for rest, the Lord appeared to him from far away. I have loved you with an everlasting love; therefore I have continued my faithfulness to you. (Jeremiah 31:1-3 ESV)

Through Isreals adulterous hearts The Lord was faithful and desired reconciliation with his people. He has always longed for faithfulness, dedication and love of His children, yet we all so easily wonder from Him. We seek to fulfill ourselves with empty things. Temporary fulfillment. He continues His faithfulness to us inspite of our doubts, and wavering hearts.

Think about how people love, one minute they are so in love, and the next second that love is gone- truth be told loving someone is a choice - not a feeling. Feelings are infatuation or lust not love. The Lord has chosen to love His people, his children inspite of how they love HIM. His love is not based on what we do or how we act.( unlike how we love others )

His love is an everlasting love, a love where He was willing to come to this earth as a baby and die on the Cross..that is true LOVE.

Dear ones  love is one we are to have for our Lord as well as our brothers and sisters. We can't love others based on their actions. We can't love based on circumstances or based on whether they called or act like they care. If that is the conditions to love then we will fail as well. We will not be worthy of love because we do not love others in that way. 

Love as Christ loved that is the command. He loved unto the Cross knowing we would not love him, He loved  us knowing we doubt, and not believe and even justify why we shouldn't love- He loved us in our sin.

Solo para la Gloria de Dios

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...
