Hope

 Micah 7:7 “But as for me, I watch in hope for the Lord, I wait for God my Savior; my God will hear me.”   This is the perfect verse for the Saturday between Good Friday and Resurrection Sunday!!   It’s the perfect verse for each of us in so many ways.   We all have struggles that take time, wait patiently on the Lord.   Watch in hope for the Lord!! Wait for God our Savior, He hears our every prayer 🙏.   He will rise, we will rise!!

Good Friday

 John 17:20 “My prayer is not for them alone.  I pray for those who will believe in me through their message, 21 that all of them may be one, Father, just as you are in me and I am in you.”   In the garden, before He was crucified Jesus. prayed for us!! He continues to intercede for us daily!!   Yesterday, we went to a moving Maundy service.   It was on John 17.  If you can take ghe tkmeto read and reflect on that chapter. Jesus, knows and loves each of us intimately.   This is imparative to remeber in our Christian health and wellness.   We are loved!!! Take this eternal love and truly live your brother and sister today.   Let us be one!! As the Father, son and Holy Spirit are One.  May your Good Friday be reflective today. 😇❤️🙏

Dont do anything that will make ypur brother stumble

 Romans 14:21 “It is better not to eat meat or drink wine or to do anything else that will cause your brother to fall.”   Holidays can be very difficult for people that har issues with over eating or over drinking.   This Easter, try to let your behavior encourage others, not hinder them.   Happy Holy Week!!

Faith when petrified

 Psalm 23:4 “Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil, for you are with me; your rod and your staff, they comfort me.    Even though I walk through the shadow of the valley of death…..Have you ever been petrified with fear?   Yesterday I was.   We were hiking on a trail in AZ.   My friend heard a rattle and said, “that sounds like a rattler”.  I yelled out, Bob! There is a snake-by your feet!. He jumped back and the snake slithered away.  He said, “It’s safe the snake is curled up now under the tree.”   I didn’t want  to go close, but decided to trust my friend since he knows the dessert.   When I got close, I heard a huge amount of rattling in the tall grass to the side of the trail.   I yelled out, “ We have to get out of  here!”   We both took off and I stated quoting Psalm 23.   If you are in fear today.  May Psalm 23 comfort you too!

True forgiveness heals

 Matthew 18:35 “This is how my Heavenly Father will treat each of you unless you forgive your brother from your heart.”   Do you have someone you need to forgive?   Forgive from your heart and you will be healed!   

Be strong and Courageous ! For tge Lord your God is with you wherever you go!!

 Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be terrified; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.”   Be strong and courageous today!!! The Lord your God is with you!!! Do you know what you need to do, yet lack the courage to address it with your full heart and your full fight?   We are not called to be cowards, we are called to be courageous!!! If you know it’s God’s will … go get it!!   What is the worse that can happen? You have miss read God’s will and it won’t work out the way you hoped.   So what.   You were courageous and God is still with you!!

Getting sucked in?

 Jude 1:16 “These men are grumblers and faultfinders; they follow thier own evil desires; they boast about themselves and flatter others for thier own advantage.”    Do you know these people? Their grumbling, complaining and faultfinding draws you in. They make you feel like you’re a part of their elite group with their flattery.  Be careful.   All of us are sinner and fall short of the glory of God.  We are not to think more highly of ourselves then others.  We are not to judge we are to love!!
