Every 100 years . . .

Beloved–

Then to Adam He said, “Because you have listened to the voice of your wife, and have eaten from the tree about which I commanded you, saying, ‘You shall not eat from it’; Cursed is the ground because of you . . . When you hear of wars and rumors of wars, do not be frightened; those things must take place; but that is not yet the end.  (from Genesis and Mark)

Today, global warming is a great concern for many people.  100 years ago the “ global climate changers” were worrying that another ice age would soon be upon the world.  Reading his word eases my concerns about these things; the Lord is in complete control of his schedule. I pray for you to get to know and develop a deep relationship with the God who is…Father,Son and Holy Spirit!

Luv Ya!

Knowledge is wisdom

Beloved–

Fear of the Lord is the foundation of true knowledge,  but fools despise wisdom and discipline … Wisdom is a tree of life to those who embrace her; happy are those who hold her tightly. (from Proverbs)

Faith comes from hearing and testing; belief comes from knowledge. When my children were teenagers they questioned my knowledge many times.  Now that they are parents, they frequently ask, “how did you do that?” I respond, “lots of prayer, and knowing that my Lord would answer my prayers.”  I pray for you to seek the deep joy of knowing our triune God will answer your prayers.

Luv Ya!

Don’t do that!

Beloved–

. . .But one of the men with Jesus pulled out his sword and struck the high priest’s slave, slashing off his ear. “Put away your sword,” Jesus told him. . . I am too stupid to be human,  and I lack common sense. (from Matthew & Proverbs)

Chaos is the tool of the enemy!  As overwhelming disaster, calamity and a cyclone of chaos confronted me I missed the window of opportunity to trust.  There, for just a moment I knew I needed to hold fast and not speak but instead I used my sword. I pray for you to acquire the knowledge of God so deeply that, you are able to hold fast to our triune God, recognizing his mercy and grace.

Luv Ya!

What is it…

Beloved–

Who can say, “I have cleansed my heart; I am pure and free from sin”?  (from Proverbs)

Fear creates anger, anger creates chaos, chaos is a tool of the enemy.  My problem is that I don’t always recognize the enemy in the chaos. When I remember to cry out to my almighty, powerful maker to hold me fast… my fear disappears.  

I pray for you to deal with your fears and accept the mercy and grace that is Christ Jesus, the Son in the triune God.

Luv Ya!
