Be careful of Posted Bible verses.

 Acts 20:28-30  28"Keep watch other yourselves and all the flock of which the Holy Spirit has made you overseers.  29 I know that after I leave, savage wolves will come among you and will not spare the flock.  30 Even from your own number men will arise and distort the truth in order to draw away disciples after them. 31 So be on gaurd!....."

I like to send Bible verse to friends of mine.  I especially like to send ones that come with nice backgrounds from the internet, because it is easy.   Lately I have been noticing how many of these verses are not accurate.   Be careful!!! I am learning to check the verses in the Bible before I send them out.   I don't want to be part of spreading false doctrine.    It's tricky, the verses are close but different.   Be careful not to fall for a wolf in sheep's clothing today!!! Open your printed Bible and check it out!!!

Are you walking in His peace?

 John 14:27 "Peace I leave with you; my peace I give you.  I do not give to you as the world gives. Do not let your hearts be troubled and do not be afraid." Are you walking in His peace today?

Word or world?

 Mark 4:18 "Still others, like seed sown among thorns, hear the Word; 19 but the worries of this life, the deceitfulness of wealth and the desires for other things come in and choke the Word, making it unfruitful. 20 Others, like seed sown on good soil, hear the Word, accept it and produce a crop- thirty, sixty or even a hundred times what was sown." 

The cares of this world can so easily choke out my faith.  What is worse, I don't even notice!!    I no think I am being a"Godly" woman, because I read my Bible.   Recently, I am noticing that I am seeking personal happiness rather than walking in His joy.   I am retired from my career.   There is a huge pull, to play all day.   I'm good at that!    It is however totally meaningless.   When I intentionally try to make a difference in other's lives by helping them see Jesus; I am living more fulfilled.    Yet, when I truly look at what I do all day, it is truly about self.  It's so easy for me to get caught up in the cares and pleasures of this world.   Today, I  hope to remember and apply this poem, "Life on earth is soon to pass, only what's done for Christ will last."   Will you?

How do you love God?

 Deuteronomy 6:5 "Love the Lord you God with all your heart  and with all your soul and with all your strength."   How do you love God?   One thing that helps me is to stay thankful in all things.  

John 14:15 "If you love  me, you will obey what I command." These are the words of Jesus.   When we love our parents we obey their rules.  We communicate with them and show them respect.  God is our Heavenly Father.    How will you love Him today?

Own it!!

 Ephesians 5:18 "Do not get drunk on wine, which leads to debauchery. Instead, be filled with the Spirit."   When I was a drinker, I was filled with a spirit of blaming others for my mistakes.  I lacked the ability to take responsibility for my own actions and get well.  In order for any of us to get well emotionally we need to take ownership of our part in things, repent and try, try again.   Personal, I ask the Lord to fill me with His Spirit, so I can see clearly what "He" needs me to do.    I hope this helps you today too.   Own it!!

Hatrid is a destroyer

 Esther 7:9 " Then Harbona, one of the eunuchs attending the king said, "A gallows seventy five feet high stands by Hamans house. He had it made for Mordecai, who spoke up to help the king.  The king said,"Hang him on it!"  10 So they hanged Haman on the gallows he had prepared for Mordecai.  Then the king's furry subsided."

Hatrid and unforgiveness hurts the hater not the hated.  Have you ever heard the phrase, "Unforgiveness is like drinking poison and hoping the other person will die.   If you have any unforgiveness in your heart today, let it go.   It will destroy you!!   Learn to be content in all things TRUST God has a plan in all things!!!
