He forgives and forgets but let's don't forget what price was paid for that forgiveness, live for Christ
you'll never feel complete till you do. Have a great Wednesday:-)
This morning when I got up I had Psalms 103:12 staring me right in the face, it's the verse about canceled sin being as far as the east is from the west!! When I think about my life and consider each of my sins as a drop of water, I'd fill Lake Michigan,no problem. So when he takes the lagoons of my filth, if I confess them, he forgives and forgets them. The best part about when we're serious about forgiveness God is not only in the removal business of that sin but he's also in the restoration business of our souls. That does not give us a license to go out and do as we please but rather give us the challenge of coming to him in thank you's and praise instead of constantly asking forgiveness for wrongdoing. With forgiveness, the soul can rebuild, because of what Christ did on the cross I can start today cleansed, rebuilt, let's keep it that way today, Ken !!
He forgives and forgets but let's don't forget what price was paid for that forgiveness, live for Christ you'll never feel complete till you do. Have a great Wednesday:-)

Have you ever stopped and thought of all the changes that take place in your life when you receive Christ as your Savior, the apostle Paul talks about several of those in the book of Colossians. He refers to when we were not Christians, our eternal address will be that of darkness but when we receive Christ our new address is the kingdom of heaven and light. In the book of Philippians Paul tells believers that if they proclaim to know Christ, they should live worthy of the new address they will have when they leave this earth. Kind of like when you move you send out emails or little cards that say you've got a change of address, when we receive Christ we should be able to say that we have moved so to speak :-) If you know Him the reservation that you've made in heaven will be your eternal home if you haven't received Him it's a great day to do it and let your life begin to show, the change. Have a great Tuesday !!! Live For Christ !!!
Dont you just love Mondays :-) In the lawn care landscaping business it is a pretty important day of the scheduled week because you fall behind there you play catch-up till you're done Friday night!!! Kinda really how life goes if you think about it, start out young,strong,fresh and end up tired,weak and old!!! I remember when my pastor told me that it's a lot easier for people to follow Christ at a young age instead of when they get older because the heart hardens as you age, but he also said a true believer remains useful right up till the day they enter heaven! I looked at our list today of things to do this week and I said ,no way, guess what, I think we can do it. It's ok to get old and age, just don't lose your usefulness!!! Keep sharp for Christ !! You're gonna lose muscle, just don't lose heart :-) You have a great Monday, and if you're checking out Table Top for the first time because you were at one of the three weddings I was doing this weekend, welcome aboard :-)
Im doing a wedding today at 5 o'clock, a lot of weddings on Sunday's' these days, anyway I hope they all remember what we did at the rehearsal LOL. Found some good stuff in Proverbs today, the famous book of wisdom in the Old Testament, Solomon tells us in chapter 1 verse 10 "Children, sinners will try to lead you into sin!!! Stay away from them !!!! I don't know how much shorter and more straight to the point you can make it then that, doesn't mean to think you're Jesus Christ and you can walk on water because you'll sink like a rock,we're all sinners, but this advice is telling us if you hang out with it long enough it'll wear off on you!!! We all remember what Jesus said when he was tempted, "Satan get behind me" Not beside!!! Behind !!!
Let's all work on Solomon's advise to kids this week, don't tagalong with sin!!! BEE HIND :-) You have a great Lords Day Might want to thank Him for dying for you today, so when you do fall into sins snare, like I do, only He can release the trap and set you free ,if you've asked Him into your heart!! BEE HIND As you very well know the currency in this country has " IN GOD WE TRUST" on it, good thing it's on there to remind us as a country that's what we're suppose to do! And boy,has the USA got away from those four beautiful words!! The 2016 theme seems to be " anything goes "!! When we put "God First, We Last" and unless this country turns itself around and does it quickly, we won't last. Scripture is very strong about turning your back on Him and His Country, Isreal, it's not recommended. Remember the beautiful short little hymn "Trust and Obey"for there's no other way, to be happy in Jesus but to trust and obey!!!
Sing it with me America :-) You have a great Saturday :-) Sorry about the" daily thoughts" being down and out LOL the last few days :-) but I got over to my daughters today and she's got it all fixed for me!!While I was there mowing her lawn,the swingset she had ordered for her three kiddos arrived. As we unloaded it and put it in the garage and I saw a picture of this thing I asked Kelli if I could move in after I helped her husband build it!!! Now my idea of a old-school swingset was a rope with a tire ,this thing has two stories and the slide :-) Praise The Lord it has an instruction book about the size of my truck with pictures!!! No way this five-star resort swingset is going together without instructions. The Bible, our guide, our instruction list, our way to do it booklet, builds our lives as they need to be built around the Bible!! And if you read God's word you'll see the pictures God paints as you read, you'll see your life start to "rebuild" As always here at Table Top TGIF meaning, Thank God I'm Forgiven.
Ever stopped and thought about how many jewels you'll have on your crown for the service of living for the Lord while you were here on earth and asking him into your life. I can't wait to see what I'm in line for :-) or maybe I don't want to know what I'm in line for LOL How about we take this Monday and work on some rewards and some jewels in our crown that we'll receive because we trusted in him!! Hey, we're going to be there we might as well have some good stuff to show off ;-) just kidding, it's amazing I know what I truly deserve from him but yet he's going to reward me !!! Have a great Monday and as always thanks for checking in here at TTM
It's beautiful Lord's Day morning,here at my garden where I come to start my week!! I totally understand why Jesus got up early and did His
"alone stuff " !!!! The world is still quiet. I want you to be honest with yourself, how much quiet time do you spend alone with your savior each week? It's scary when we think about it, he gave his life for us and how much time of thank you and respect do we set aside for Him!!! I don't know about you but I'm gonna try to do more of that this week,starting today, THIS LORDS DAY :-) Have a great Sunday!!!! Oh yeah and by the way, you don't need to keep track of how much time you do spend with Him , your heart will let you know that :-) Can't help but think about John 3:16 today,
Giving up HIS ONLY SON for a wretch like me!! Enjoy your Saturday, and if you get a minute truly think of what that cost on that Good Friday I have a real nice plaque in my foyer with Joshua 24:15 on it that someone got me years ago because they heard me ask a young man not to use the Lords name in vain in my house!!!My daughter also has the same verse over her door at her house!!! Might want to look the verse up !!
It's a good one !!! As always at Tabletop TGIF :-) THANK GOD I'M FORGIVEN |
