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...

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...
