Take UP Your Cross


Prompt:
Psalm 89:15-18
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the Lord is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

Explain these verses.

Answer:
God glorifies his people as they follow him and walk in his ways. He causes them to rejoice. I believe this joyful sound to be rejoicing and celebration. We are blessed and we win when we live for Jesus.

Scripture writing - Romans 8:35-39


Scripture:
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Observations:
Verse 35- Nothing and No one can separate from the love of Christ.
Verse 36- Even when we are suffering persecution, we are not separated from His love.
Verse 37- we are MORE than conquerors in Christ.
Verses 38 and 39- Nothing in or out of this world 🌎 can separate us from God's love which we have in Jesus Christ.

Application:
We are loved unconditionally by God.

Prayer:
Dear God,
Thank you for loving me. Thank you for the security and assurance I find in you.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen

Prompt: What Easter be like for you compared to last year?

Well last year I stayed home and watched Easter services online as did most people. This year I hope to go in person. Either way, I am still thankful that Christ rose from the grave and provided a way of Salvation for all.

Write about this poem today for your Blog entry.

Geese are beautiful birds. I love to take pictures of them when I can. It amazes me to watch them in flight. I have taken some awesome pictures of geese in the past. I would love to get some more. I think one day I would love to go to a lake and watch the sun rise or set while taking some pictures and if I am lucky there will be some geese there too.

Day 5056: March 31, 2021

Prompt: "It is the nature of the strong heart, that like the palm tree it strives ever upwards when it is most burdened." ~ Philip Sidney
Write about nature and palm trees.

The ninja monkeys would like this prompt I think. 😂 I get a mental picture of them climbing the palm trees, picking the coconuts, and throwing them at people and each other from in in the tree they are in. 😂

There is a game for the Xbox One and Wii that is Super Mario Party 8. It has a board you can play that is tropical and has mini games that include monkeys climbing ropes while trying to avoid getting hit in the head with coconuts. It is quite the challenge and a fun little family game. I recommend it, and yes there are palm trees in this game. 😊🌴🥥

Palm trees make me think of a beach or a tropical area. I think of sunshine and a light breeze. Short of a picture of a hurricane, it is actually quite a relaxing scene I see in my imagination. It would be fun to go to a place like this and take pictures, especially if there are seagulls or other animals around the area and close to sunrise or sunset with a few clouds floating in the sky.

Take UP Your Cross


Prompt:
Psalm 84:4-5;12
4 Blessed are they that dwell in thy house: they will be still praising thee. Selah.
5 Blessed is the man whose strength is in thee; in whose heart are the ways of them.

12 O Lord of hosts, blessed is the man that trusteth in thee.

How can we dwell in God's house and put our strength in him? What do these verses mean?

Answer:
To dwell in God's house is to be in His presence. To put our strength in God means we don't rely on our own strength. We rely on God's direction, Word, and will. We trust him to fight for us and to work through and in us. It is completely relying on God for everything.

I have also added a Scripture memory guide/plan if any one would like to memorize Scripture with me. Check the forum page itself as I may make notes, ask questions, and post new information there from week to week. I would love to here your comments.

Scripture writing - James 3:16-18


Scripture:
16 For where envying and strife are, there is confusion and every evil work.
17 But the wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gentle, and easy to be intreated, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality, and without hypocrisy.
18 And the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace of them that make peace.

Observations:
Verse 16- Envying and strife produce evil and confusion.
Verse 17- The wisdom that comes from God does not produce evil and confusion. It is pure, gentle, promotes peace, easy to be heard and accepted, full of mercy and goodness, and without hypocrisy and favoritism.
Verse 18- The end result of righteousness is peace.

Application:
God is a God of Peace. Good works lead to the end result of peace. Anything evil, such as envying and strife, leads to confusion and the opposite of peace.

Prayer:
Dear God,
Help me to always pursue the way of peace. Help me to remember verse 17 so that my life will produce the fruits of the Spirit.
In Jesus‘ name,
Amen

Prompt Anne Frank wrote, “How wonderful it is that nobody need wait a single moment before starting to improve the world.”
Can you imagine what would Anne Frank do could she have survived the Holocaust? Tell us what comes to your mind.

I would imagine her story may have been one similar to Corrie Ten Boom’s. I find it interesting that both women have books and museums and movies credited to their lives.

Day 5055: March 30, 2021

Prompt: You cannot hope to build a better world without improving the individuals. To that end, each of us must work for his own improvement and, at the same time, share a general responsibility for all humanity, our particular duty being to aid those to whom we think we can be most useful. Marie Curie
Use this quote in your blog entry.

My thoughts on the above quote:

If you want to improve the world, the best place to begin is within yourself. Until you fix what is wrong with yourself, it is hard to fix what is wrong with anyone else. We can't help every one we meet, but we can help the people we can one individual at a time. Change is a process. Improvement takes time and effort. The only way to have the world improve is by a bunch of individuals improving themselves and helping others in their personal circle along the way.
