Daily Scripture and Thoughts




And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:28 ESV)

Dear Ones-
The Lord continues to bless us, and show us His love through His Grace and Mercy in our lives. Forsaking what we deserve and continuing to bless us and use things in our lives for good, even when at the moment there seems to be no good in what is happening.

Would the sacrifice of the Cross be enough for you to love the Lord if He did nothing else in your life? We continually need and ask of the Lord- we ask more besides the greatest love sacrifice HE bestowed on us. There is nothing greater anyone can do, yet we want more. We ask for more.. we say things like ' if you love me Lord, you will......"

What more do you need?

Lord forgive us for minimizing the Cross for asking more than your greatest Sacrifice of your Son Jesus Christ. Lord we are a desperate people, who need to know your Word and to live it in our lives. You ask- if you love me you will keep MY Commands. Lord we ask and ask but we are not willing to do. We are not willing to live by your Word, we are not willing to die to ourselves. We continue in sin, making excuses convincing ourselves of lies. Asking more of you- Lord we deserve your wrath but yet you continue to love us... WHY?

Lord open our eyes so we may see! Help us to not just read this Word but manifest it from our lives so we may be a light and bring glory to your name.

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...

Goodbye Facebook...Hello thoughts...

Well I did... I took the plunge and deactivated my facebook. It is amazing how much of a time consumer it is. It eats time like you would not believe. I am hoping, praying with this new found time, and lack of distraction that it will give me motivation to blog more. As my young men get older, move closer and closer in considering that step towards becoming one with someone.. I have come to realize there are so many resources out there pointed at men and what they need to do, or what they need to be as men to get married. The sad thing is there is hardly anything for young women. Today I challenge Paul to look at a questionaire done by Stacey and James McDonald( you can find it on Staceys  blog thesacredcalling.com)  that they put together for young suitors for their daughters. After reading it he came down so heavy hearted. Guess the realization of the spiritual, emotional and physical responsibilities of it all became very burdensome. Of course I shared how we could do noth...

Saying "I love you"...

Thinking about these words. These words that are to express our deepest emotions. These words that are to leave us vunerable and open, just do not seem to have the impact they use to. Many people use these words so fleeting. They use them as if to say "thank you", or "I thought about you today". For me "I love you" is not an easy thing to say. If I say I love you- I mean it from way down deep in my heart. They are not just words to be said but also words, that are to be put into action. Have you ever thought about that? When someone says "I love you", do they show through their actions that they love you?  or do they leave you going Huh, really? I have had those thoughts, wondering if the person who has declared their love really does love me because actions speak louder than words to me. I hear their words but then on the other hand see their actions and  they do not act like a person who even cares about my well being. Jesus never states in the...
