Our “heart” is who we are. We want to give ALL that we are to love and serve our heavenly Father. That’s what Jesus showed us to do.
Men need women and women need men. That’s how God designed it from the beginning.
Unworthy and helpless I stood alone,
Crying for help from my God.
Life seemed unlivable, chilled to the bone,
Longing to lie ‘neath the sod.
Yet when I cried out, the very next day,
A brother appeared where I served.
Each heart cry was answered, in Jesus the way,
Such grace that I never deserved.
Then fellowship daily with like-minded saints,
Brought peace, comfort, hope, love, and joy.
I replaced thoughts of praise for those sad, past complaints,
So thankful to be “Father’s boy.”
Years later, my wife, the perfect help mete,
Fulfilled all my deep heart desire.
Each moment together so rich and so sweet,
Love blossomed into a true fire.
And now with grandchildren, our son, his dear wife,
Blessings pour forth and abound.
God’s kindness in Christ throughout all my life,
Is the greatest love I’ve ever found.
AI is nothing new. At the onset of mankind, people developed their own “artificial” intelligence.
Halloween is a time when people are “scared” of ghosts, goblins, witches, and evil spirits. As believers who have the authority of Jesus Christ’s name, we have NO FEAR. We have authority over all the forces of the enemy!
When we are born again we have eternal life through Christ. But what should WE DO with our lives?
God looks on our hearts. That’s where the essence of life begins and lives.
Grandchildren. They are a huge blessing–and a great responsibility.
The grave below,
And timeless, breathless,
There we sleep,
Not ‘wake or restless
In the deep.
Though worm decay
All back to dust,
There is a day
That all can trust.
We sorrow not
At death’s great loss
As others caught
Who feel the cost.
For we have hope
In Christ’s return,
An anchor rope
We hold and yearn.
In twinkling eye
And trumpet blast
Up in the sky
At one at last
Our Lord will come
And raise us all
To take us home
At his clear call.
Death now sets free
Its stinging pain,
The grave–
no victory remains.
For we’re steadfast
In our Lord’s words,
Knowing at last
We’ve great rewards!
My prayer today is “open my eyes that I may see.” I’ve learned that I can “get moving” into the day without seeking God’s advice. That usually doesn’t turn out too well. I think of Joshua doing the same kind of thing. After defeating and taking the city of Jericho in Joshua chapter 6, he sends out spies again. This time to the city of Ai.
