Daily Scripture and Thoughts

For by the grace given to me I say to everyone among you not to think of himself more highly than he ought to think, but to think with sober judgment, each according to the measure of faith that God has assigned. (Romans 12:3 ESV)

Dear Ones
 Walking in this walk with Christ can bring one to a level of arrogance. Thinking as you "seem "to be sinless that you have a right to judge others as they walk, or struggle in sin. We must be careful because that too is sin. No one as they walk the narrow path is ever in a state of perfection or have arrived. If we are true to our Lord and ourselves we are a continual work in progress never reaching the end till we see the gates of Heaven.

We are to balance that with being sure we hold our brothers and sisters accountable and if we see sin in their lives loving them enough to share the Word with them to guide them back with truth, that is sober judgement.

In all this dear ones remember the measure of faith the Lord has given you and also remember the amount of forgiveness and grace He has granted for your sins.If you have been forgiven much should you not forgive much?


Lord help us to live according to this Word never to think ourselves better than another. Never to look down on another for their struggle or to remember that we each struggle differently and because we are in a certain place in the narrow path to not look at another with condemnation because they are not where you are. Help us to remember that the Truth may not have been revealed to them yet and God maybe using you to guide this soul. 

Lord be with us and help us to live this truth.

In Jesus Name-Amen

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...

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...
