Here's A Thought


Romans 3:23 For all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God


Let's quit judging each other and looking down on others when God loves us all the same. Let's have the same compassion on our brothers and sisters that Jesus had when he took our punishment on the cross. Let's have some humility-

P.S.

Romans 12:19

To All That Struggle


Matthew 6:26
Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they?

Matthew 6:34
Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own.

Proverbs 4:23
Above all else, guard your heart,
for it is the wellspring of life.

Heb 13:5 (RSV) "Keep your life free from the love of money, and be content with what you have."

Ephesians 4:32 ESV
Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you

Matthew 5:44 ESV
But I say to you, Love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you,

1 Corinthians 13:1-13
If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing. Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; ...

James 4:6 ESV
But he gives more grace. Therefore it says, “God opposes the proud, but gives grace to the humble.”

Things Are Looking Up!


Yes, there are more changes errupting in my life. This time though, I am not fighting them. Sometimes when you aren't supposed to be somewhere God makes sure that you are out. This is the second time I've had to learn that lesson.

I'm back at the Imax until I find something else. I am going to school in January. I am completely open and willing to whatever God has for me.

Trusting has been a bit hard because of previous issues but God is making it very clear that the only one I can rely on completely is him.

He knows my heart and he knows my intentions. And that is more satisfying than any amount of money or social events on my calender.

The End of an Era


Are we thinking how our words, and actions are affecting people?
Are we being kind and gracious and merciful?
Are we opening our hearts to those who are hurting?
Are we pouring out love or hate?
Are we recklessly scattering his seed or are we keeping our hands in our pockets?
Are we losing our focus?
