HAVE A GOOD ONE !!!!!
Two years ago today I wrote in my journal that one of my grandsons,Hazen,asked Jesus into his heart :-) If that's not a great way to kick start a Friday,praising the Lord for a grandchilds salvation, I don't know what it is !!! SELAH
HAVE A GOOD ONE !!!!!

Matthew 16 is one of the greatest chapters of all The Gospels. The 25th and 26th verses are probably the most famous part of that chapter, that's where Christ says: "Whosoever shall save his life shall lose it,and whosoever will lose his life for MY sake shall find it"!!!! Then Jesus goes on to say:" For what is a man profited if he shall gain the whole world and lose his own soul"!!!! Reaching out to Christ in faith should not be just a single step,but an entire lifetime of walking with HIM!!! Remember,God spews out lukewarm, He can work with cold or hot!!! A Luke warm Christian reminds me of the "N" on your cars shift column, another word you "AIN'T"going nowhere :-) Through my Christian life, I can honestly say I've been cold, I've been hot,and I've been lukewarm. The most miserable place that I find myself is lukewarm :-) You have a good Thursday!!! While my sons and I were plowing 8 inches of heavy, wet snow this week, I couldn't help but remember the saying that no two snowflakes are alike :-) So everyone of those flakes we plowed were different by HIS design. So that should make you feel pretty good today, you are so unique in God's creation, He made us all different!!! And as separate individuals, God leaves the choice up to us to receive and believe in His Son, Jesus, as our personal Savior!!!! Your creator made you by His design, so think of that when you look in the mirror today :-)
I HAVE DECIDED TO FOLLOW JESUS!!! Hope you've done the same!!! Sorry no daily thought yesterday, but we were busy plowing 8 inches of snow. And being in the snow removal business that would be a good thing :-) I'm sure most of you are aware of what Revelation 22 :20 says about Our Saviors return!!! The fact is,that Jesus could come and will come at anytime!!! If you get a few minutes today look up the listed scriptures below and you'll get the idea, Romans 13:11&12,Philippians 4:5, Hebrews 10:37,James 5:8&9, First Peter 4:7
He's coming,hope we're all busy going about letting the truth shine,out of our lives,for the world to see!!! Live like it could be today, because it could. If you get a second,could you pray for my son, Kevin and his family, their precious little pup "Gatsby"went to doggie heaven this week!!! 14 years of the sweetest Loyalty!! "The lion will lay down with the lamb" that's scripture! "Gats" will be there,along with" Shanny & Snowball" !!! :-) There is nothing more precious to me,or melts my heart more, then when one of my nine grandchildren take my hand. It's just the most unbelievable feeling when they reach up and just want your hand in their's. Did you know that in Psalms chapter 73,verse 23,David wrote about that
exact same thing!!! The holding of hands is just reassuring that you are there for that person. God tells us by trusting in Him,we give Him our hand, He'll lead the way!!! God loves it,absolutely loves it,when we trust Him enough to say "Here I am,take my hand"!! You do the trusting, God promises, He'll do the holding!!! TRUST HIM!!! Enjoy your LORDS DAY !! :-) I'd like to take a minute to wish my seven-year-old grandson, Hazen,a very happy birthday,and for my brand-new daughter-in-law,Alexandra,today is her birthday also!! Love you both,nonstop prayers for each of you. This morning I was reading out of Matthew,Matthew 19:26 of course is the famous verse, that tells us,that with God, all things are possible. Sometimes we feel like we're limited to what we can pull off and handle in our lives. But what that verse tells us is how Gods limitless power can really help us and make " all things possible " Remember to lighten your load,and make your yoke a little easier, leave it at The Cross, Christ has a very good view of you and me from up above !!! SELAH !!! Once gain, HAPPY BIRTHDAY "Hazy & Al" Do you remember when a team of astronomers said they found a "giant hole"in the universe :-) Did you know that Job talked about that giant hole in chapter 38,verse one. God used this huge hole,so to speak,for Job to look at in the evening sky!! We all know the story about Job,he not only had a bad day,he had a bad life!!! But God used him,and talked to him,through his suffering, with His creation!!! Next time you have a bad day, if it's a clear night, find The Star of Orion, God knows our needs!!!!!
He's in the filling of "The Potholes Of Life" business. Have a "Good Friday " Do yourself a favor, don't go shopping today :-) HAPPY THANKSGIVING!!!
Quick thought for today, let's all do what the cute little chorus suggests, "Count your blessings, and name them one by one" :-) I couldn't help but think this morning about the thief that was nailed to the cross next to Jesus!! He couldn't use his hands to give HIM a hug for saving him!! Just think, on this Thanksgiving, someday our hands will no longer be nailed to this world, but wrapped around OUR SAVIOUR !!!! Happy Thanksgiving Indeed Seven years ago today, after reading out of Second Samuel 12:9, this is what I wrote in my journal: STAY ON TRACK!!! STAY ON TRACK!!! STAY ON TRACK!!! STAY ON TRACK!!!! STAY ON TRACK!! When King David screwed up, God sent Nathan to comfort him, and to get him back on the right track. David looks like a choirboy compared to me, and when I DERAIL, I know God is there to put me back on track!! Here's a thought Ken,once you let God be in total charge, and the engineer of your train ride, your life won't be havoc!!!! Have a good Wednesday!!! Revelation 2, reminds us that God is in the " I Know" business. With all that's going on in this world today,and in our own country, I'm glad Revelation 2:9, was written. Take a peek at that verse today, should help you with your Monday!! HE KNOWS :-)
