Walking In The Love Of The Lord; Casting All My Cares On Him! |
Genesis 8:20-22 From the time of Noah, God's promises have been true. My one hope is to press into the Father of All Creation, the Lord God Almighty of Abraham, Isaac and Jacob and the Prophets, for He is the Word of Life and from the Beginning. Holy, righteous and just and there is no truth outside of Him. May the Lord Be Praised Forever! ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ♫~ Kenword~♫ ![]() ![]() (101@100513)_(101x2@030614)__________ (YCM_@122313) |
Genesis 5:28-32 When Lamech had lived 182 years, he had a son. He named him Noah and said, “He will comfort us in the labor and painful toil of our hands caused by the ground the LORD has cursed.” After Noah was born, Lamech lived 595 years and had other sons and daughters. Altogether, Lamech lived a total of 777 years, and then he died. After Noah was 500 years old, he became the father of Shem, Ham and Japheth. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() Noah’s father was Lamech, a man born of Methusulah whose life span was 969 years. These were the days before God had decreed that man’s years would never exceed 120. By the time Noah was born, hundreds of thousands of people inhabited the earth and there was extreme wickedness in each man and woman born in those days. The good that God had done for mankind was overshadowed by greed, malice, vengeance, sexual perversion and murder. There was only one man whose heart was not bent towards evil and it was Lamech’s son Noah. I gather surrender my heart today to wonder about Noah. For as in the days of Noah, evil prevails over good. The advent of the news services, television, radio, computers and the internet insures that we are informed of all the evil that is being done all around the world, minute by minute. But the most diabolical evil is what is happening in my heart right now. It does not love and it refuses to repent of any of its wicked meditations. Until at last I must bow my knee and turn to God for deliverance from my own destructive ways. You O Lord are my hope and my shield. Forgive me of all of my sin and lawlessness. Restore to me the joy of Your Salvation and I will have rest and peace in You, my Deliverer. Amen. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ♫~ Kenword~♫ ![]() ![]() (101@100513)_(101x2@030614)__________ (YCM_@122313) |
"You sit at my feet dear little one And we wonder you I, How beautiful the world around us As we consider our blueberry pie" John 1:9-12 9 The true light, which gives light to everyone, was coming into the world. 10 He was in the world, and the world was made through him, yet the world did not know him. 11 He came to his own,[b] and his own people[c] did not receive him. 12 But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God, 13 who were born, not of blood nor of the will of the flesh nor of the will of man, but of God. ________________________________________________________________________________________ In the morning we rushed through the final preparations with coffee and toast in hand. The food was ready. The powerpoint good to go! Then I remembered a time just after becoming a God's child. There was a little girl and we didn't know much about verses and scriptures and Bible, but there was always blueberry pie. She learned her lessons and I learned my and we've ended up going the same way. I don't know what that has captured my imagination this morning. But I am compelled to search out the pie section of my market tomorrow. Perhaps with some whipped cream. |
The Word of Life 1 That which was from the beginning, which we have heard, which we have seen with our eyes, which we looked upon and have touched with our hands, concerning the word of life— 2 the life was made manifest, and we have seen it, and testify to it and proclaim to you the eternal life, which was with the Father and was made manifest to us— 3 that which we have seen and heard we proclaim also to you, so that you too may have fellowship with us; and indeed our fellowship is with the Father and with his Son Jesus Christ. 4 And we are writing these things so that our[a] joy may be complete. ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() ![]() The wonder of the day breaks as I find some lyric to write and a game to play. There will be prayers today. Concerns will be well addressed and some children will awaken to the sound and glory of a God who wants to be with them. I am serene in the beginning of walking with my Savior today knowing the bliss that comes with His favor. Christ was made manifest to John and now it is to the whole world to believe on his witness of the truth. What should they do? Believe on Jesus. Receive Him by faith, and the veil of unbelief will be lifted. I have seen it a hundred times as children make Jesus the Lord of their lives. Born into the church of the Living God they begin to flourish and prosper though the source of their sustenance visibly has not changed - but the Father of Lights now takes them for a walk into eternity that begins with a simple prayer of faith. Glory to God in the Highest. Come Lord Jesus Come! |
