The Lord is my shepherd, I shall not want.  

He makes me lie down in green pastures; He leads me beside quiet waters. He restores my soul; 

He guides me in the paths of righteousness For His name’s sake.

Even though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I fear no evil, 

For You are with me; Your rod and Your staff, they comfort me.

You prepare a table before me in the presence of my enemies; 

You have anointed my head with oil; My cup overflows.

Surely goodness and lovingkindness will follow me all the days of my life, 

And I will dwell in the house of the Lord forever.

Beloved–

Take delight in the Lord, and he will give you your heart’s desires. Commit everything you do to the Lord.  Trust him, and he will help you. (from Psalms)

That is the question; am I taking delight in the Lord or do I want to delight in my own way?   I pray for you to ask yourself that same question.  You will be glad if you do.  Always praising the Lord God Almighty for his mercy and grace.

Luv Ya!

For if you forgive other people when they sin against you, your heavenly Father will also forgive you.  But if you do not forgive others their sins, your Father will not forgive your sins. (from Matthew)

How can I forgive when my heart is being crushed, battered and torn to shreds by someone that I love and who I thought loved me.  It was only by the grace of the Lord that I am able to say I have forgiven and forgotten because I am forgiven and choose to live in the shadow of the Almighty.  I pray for you to choose to forgive and praise the Lord God Almighty.

Luv Ya!

Beloved–

Jesus said, “Father, forgive them, for they don’t know what they are doing.” And the soldiers gambled for his clothes by throwing dice. (from Luke)

 It was my sin that nailed my Lord Jesus to the cross. Yet, he asked the heavenly father, Almighty God to forgive me.  When I say it is too painful I can’t forgive it means that I have lost the vision of me holding the nails for the soldiers.  If my goal is that whatever I do, whatever I say will reflect glory on my Savior then I have no choice.  I have learned that forgiveness is a greater blessing for the forgiver than for the forgiven.  I pray for you to remember who is holding the nails.

Luv Ya!

•  Psalam 23 — memorized at the age of 7    

• John 3:16 — saved unto the Lord Jesus Christ

• Isaiah 26:3 — heard the voice of the Holy Spirit

• Psalm 34 — learned not my way but His way

• John 14:15-17 — learned how

• Acts 2:25-26 —  learned I’m never alone

As a new Christian I became involved in many Bible studies.  However, I still didn’t have a real relationship with my redeemer.  I came to the conclusion that if parts of the Bible were profitable for me, maybe I should read the whole book from cover-to-cover.  And so began my daily journey to get to know my savior.  I pray for you to desire a real relationship with the lover of your soul! 

Luv Ya!
