You Have Not Because You Ask Not The Following scripture is from The Book of Wisdom in the Catholic Bible. We have a few extra books..and I have no idea why…nor do I care. I am very nondenominational. GOD’S WORD…IS GOD’S WORD. This is taken from Chapter 9….Solomon’s prayer. Lord bestow on me THE GIFT OF WISDOM, The Attendant at Your Throne, and reject me not from among your children. Send Her forth from Your holy heavens and from your glorious throne dispatch her; that She may be with me and work with…
PERFECT VISION 2 Cor. 3:14-18 But their minds were made dull, for to this day the same veil remains when the old covenant is read. It has not been removed, because only in Christ is it taken away. Even to this day when Moses is read, a veil covers their hearts. But whenever anyone turns to the Lord, the VEIL IS TAKEN AWAY. Now the Lord is the Spirit, and where the Spirit of the Lord is, there is freedom. And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into His likeness…
My Mighty Burr Oak Renovated… For My 71st Bday Isaiah 61:3 They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting for the Lord, for the display of his splendor. Isaiah 61:9 Their descendants will be known amongst the nations, and their offspring amongst the peoples. All who see them will acknowledge that they are a people the Lord has blessed. Once you begin to read my autobiography, you’ll understand the symbol of Strength and Becoming with which God blessed me…my Mighty Burr Oak. The story that tree could tell would knock your socks off! It’s…
Listening to God’s Discernment Eph. 4:1-6 As a prisoner of the Lord, I urge you to live a life worthy of the calling you have received. Be completely humble and gentle; be patient bearing with one another in love. Make every effort to keep the unity of The Spirit through the bond of peace. There is one body and one spirit. Just as you were called to one hope, when you were called-One Lord, One Faith, One Baptism; One God and Father of all, who is over all, and through all. As a youngster, I’d…
You Know When God Speak Isaiah 49:15-16 Can a mother forget the baby at her breast, and have no compassion on the child she has borne? Though she may forget, I will not forget you. See, I have engraved you on the palms of my hands; your walls are ever before me. Psalm 141:8 But my eyes are fixed on you, O Sovereign Lord; in you I take refuge- do not give me over to death. HAS GOD BEEN GIVING US ALL A WAKEUP CALL, OR WHAT?I surely hope, that those who are not believers will…
Joey at Walmart 2 Cor3: 8 And we, who with unveiled faces all reflect the Lord’s glory, are being transformed into his likeness, with ever increasing glory, which comes from the Lord, who is the Spirit. Getting a huge amount of groceries at 2 different stores, is a lot for this 70 year old chick. In the future, I might consider taking Mr. Moo Cow along, to help load them into the car. One of the statements in my Bible group is, ”God’s got this.” Yesterday, He certainly did. As always, when I’m checking out, I start…
Psalm 1:1-3 Blessed is the man who does not walk in the counsel of the wicked, or stand in the way of sinners, or sit in the seat of mockers. But his delight is in the law of the Lord, and he meditates upon it day and night.He is like a tree planted by streams of water, which yields its fruit in season, and whose does not wither. Whatever he does, prospers. TEACHING IS NOT A JOB…IT IS A MINISTRY! If you don’t believe this, and are just putting in the years, then you need…
1 Thessalonians 5: 16-18 Be joyful always; Pray continually, give thanks in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you in Christ Jesus. Philippians 4:8 And now, dear brothers and sisters, one final thing; fix your thoughts on what is true and honorable, right, pure, lovely, and admirable. Think about things that are excellent and worthy of praise. Choose joy! No matter what you are going through. Choose to make this year one of positive thoughts, prayers, and actions. Choose to be led by The Holy Spirit. You can sit around and worry, fret, and concentrate…
FRIENDSHIP… ROCK ALONG WITH ME….REST IN YOUR COMFY CHAIR AND LISTEN TO THE SPIRIT WHO GUIDES ME….. Todays topic…..TRUE FRIENDSHIP The Book of Sirach Ch. 6:5-17 A kind mouth multiplies friends, and gracious lips prompt friendly greetings. Let your acquaintances be many, but one in a thousand your confidant. When you gain a friend, first test him, and be not too ready to trust him. For one sort of friend is a friend when it suits him, but he will not be with you in the time of distress. Another is a friend who becomes an…
