Jesus saves

Jesus saves

The biggest festival I never realized existed

PENTECOST
Through the gift of faith that comes only from the Holy Spirit working through the means of grace, Christians trust in Christ as Savior and proclaim Him in their daily lives by service to their neighbors. 

...And hold you in the palm
                              of His hand...

Is there a "must be a servant before a master" quote in the Bible?

Seems familiar but after a quick internet search I still didn't come up with a reference.

Drumming up Bible verses IS a skill.  Kudos to my Father-in-Law for Photoverse...I think it's making its last debut this week...

St. Joseph of Cupertino

"Clearly, what God wants above all is our will which we received as a free gift from God in creation and possess as though our own. When a man trains himself to acts of virtue, it is with the help of grace from God from whom all good things come that he does this. The will is what man has as his unique possession"

Romans has a special place in my heart... I first remember noticing my husband after sitting close to him in a studies of Romans class in College. Therefore, having been justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom also we have obtained our introduction by faith into this grace in which we stand.

Chatting with the husband tonight about how ANYONE can publish...books, cds, and even me- blogs. But the act of putting something on virtual paper makes it real

May the Lord look upon you with favor
     And give you peace

I checked on myself from promises made in Sept... Not too bad and my note to others is to never give up... Even if you falter, stay strong!

We have these billboards

So... We live in a metropolitan area and have these billboards.  I have to say (and I know I've said it in my Revelations posts) that I'm excited!  This is like, waiting for the biggest Christmas present ever if it's true!!  My husband is way more skeptical.  Not sure if he's done enough or been humble enough or had faith enough but I say BRING IT ON GOD.  What an amazing experience it would be to be a part of Christ's second coming ***

Nehemiah 9:28 But as soon

Nehemiah 9:28 But as soon as they were at rest, they again did what was evil in your sight.

And Christian FRIENDS are so

And Christian FRIENDS are so important.

Christian education is so important-

Christian education is so important- I'm only now realizing the impact daily exposure to the word of God can have.

This little light of mine

I'm gunna let it shine

Isaiah 12:6-9

The wolf will live with the lamb,
the leopard will lie down with the goat.
the calf and the lion and the yearling together;
and a little child will lead them.
The cow will feed with the bear,
their young will lie down together,
and the lion will eat straw like the ox.
The infant will play near the hole of the cobra,
and the young child put his hand into the viper's nest.
They will neither harm nor destroy
on all my holy mountain,
for the earth will be full of the knowledge of the Lord
as the waters cover the sea.

Shoot- I still don't have

Shoot- I still don't have much to say. Days are blurring by...

A good friend reminded me

A good friend reminded me that God commands rest. So be it Saturdays or Sundays or week nights- Make time!

The best thing...

The best thing about this blog has been opening up my faith to others.  Seems so simple but it's so easy to neglect or bypass.

Sorry I haven't posted very

Sorry I haven't posted very meaty things lately... The Lord has blessed me with many to love and a busy job...

Partners are SO necessary. God

Partners are SO necessary. God was right to give man woman.

I think the best thing about this year has been the opportunity or rather the call to get better in touch with my Christian friends. How lucky am I to have a wealth of people to lean on!

Turning point

I really have to put another plug in for the sermon I posted 4/8 from Jeff Kristenson at South Valley Community Church.  Our marriage has been really great/strong/fun lately.  I attribute that to understanding more of what my husband wants and guess what~ When my husband gets what he's craving I am fulfilled as well!  We keep asking each other skeptically, "why are you being so cool lately?" "I don't know...why are you being so cool??"

Psalm 128
Blessed are all who fear the Lord,
who walk in his ways.
You will eat the fruit of your labor;
blessings and prosperity will be yours.
Your wife will be like a fruitful vine
within your house;
your sons will be like olive shoots
around your table.
Thus is the man blessed
who fears the Lord
May the Lord bless you from Zion
all the days of your life;
may you see the prosperity of Jerusalem,
and may you live to see your children's children.
Peace be upon Israel.

GK Chesterton

Sorry I missed my post yesterday... The morning was spent in Jury Duty.  On the informative little video they had a quote from GK Chesterton and I wan't able to find it in my quick search this morning but dude's writing seems interesting!  Which reminds me that I need to seek out some CS Lewis as well.

GOD IS BIGGER THAN THE NAVY!
