HONORING OUR SPECIAL FRIENDS!

 

 

 

 

 

 

HONORING ALL OF YOU=My FAMILY

AND FRIENDS=Both men and women=You ALL are

AN INTRICATE PART=Of my life

 

 

HONORING OUR SPECIAL FRIENDS!

 

I have been BLESSED

With a BEAUTIFUL FAMILY=

A beautiful extended family

And many dear FRIENDS

In my life

 

I have been HONORED and TOUCHED

By all of you=and every single moment of life

Is a BLESSING=and/or a learning experience

 

TODAY we read about

ONE of the most

Special friendships

In all of Scripture

The friendship between David and Johnathan

 

“I grieve for you

Johnathan my brother!

 

Most dear you have

Been to me=more PRECIOUS

Have I held love

For you

Than LOVE for women”                                                                                                               2 Samuel 1:26

 

FRIENDSHIPS between two men

Or two women=

Can be MORE POWERFUL

Than even=a romantic relationship

 

When we LOSE

A family member=or

A dear friend

We become BROKEN

But we still have THE MEMORIES

 

HONORING OUR SPECIAL FRIENDS!

Remembering the treasured memories

 

“The Lord shall open

Unto you=HIS GOOD TREASURE

The heaven

 

To give you rain

In dry season=and to bless

All the work

Of your hands”                                                                                                                     Deuteronomy 28:12

 

“For where YOUR TREASURE IS

There your heart

Will also be”                                                                                                                       Matthew 6:21

 

That is where the TREASURE

Of Johnathan and Davis was

In the FRIENDSHIP

Of each other

 

And that is WHERE

MY TREASURE is too=

IN LOVING GOD=and in

LOVING all of you

HONORING MY SPECIAL FRIENDS!

Honoring my God=my family

And my friends

 

“He shall call upon me

And I will answer him

 

I will be with him

In trouble=I will deliver him

And  HONOR HIM!”                                                                                                                   Psalm 91:15

 

IF you are blessed-

With a dear friend

As David and Johnathan were

To each other

 

TAKE the time

To HONOR THEM=

Take the time

To remind them

OF YOUR LOVE AND APPRECIATION

 

So today=this special day

I take the time

TO HONOR MY FAMILY

And all of you=MY SPECIAL FRIENDS

And especially my dear loving GOD

 

REMEMBERING each other in life

And remembering each other

WHEN we lose someone dear

 

I love all of you=and I

HONOR YOU=my dear special friends!

 

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER living-loving=HOLY FATHER God!

A PERSON'S WORD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

APRIL 6^th, 2012

 

 

 

 

 

A PERSON’S WORD

 

 

 

 

 

A person

Is only as good

As their word

I learned that

A long long time ago

 

If you are faithful

In small things

You will be faithful

In large

I learned that

A long long time ago

 

A person

Is only as good as their word

 

If you can

Be trusted in small things

You can be

Trusted in large

 

I learned that

A long long time ago

 

A person is only

As good as their word

 

When you say something

Do you really mean it

When you say something

Do you really keep it

In small things

And in large

 

A person

Is only as good as their word

Ps        GOD’S WORD IS ALWAYS TRUTH

 

“For the word of God

Is living and active

Sharper than any double-edged sword

 

It penetrates

Even to dividing soul and spirit---joints and marrow

It judges the thoughts and attitudes

of the HEART “                                                                                Hebrews 4:12

 

 

“The reason my Father loves me

Is that I lay down my life

---Only to take it up again

 

No one takes it from me

But I lay it down

Of my own accord

 

I have authority

To lay it down

And authority to take it up again

 

This command

I received from my Father”                                                 John 10:18

 

Today at 3pm---Jesus Christ laid down his human life

Only to pick it back up on Sunday

To live in eternity with his Father and us

 

A person is ONLY AS GOOD AS HIS WORD

 

Ps     5-31-2019

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHEN TESTED=RESPOND WITH THE PATIENT LOVE=OF OUR GOD

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

WHEN TESTED=RESPOND WITH=THE PATIENT LOVE=

OF OUR GOD

 

EASTER is Approaching FAST=And we are coming UP=on the time=

When Jesus=Is PUT TO THE TEST=and at OTHER TIMES=we too=The

Modern day Christians and disciples=are PUT TO the test too=”With

Revilement and torture=Let us PUT HIM=to the TEST=That we may have

Proof of his gentleness=and TRY HIS PATIENCE”                                                           Wisdom 2:19

 

This week=and the weeks to come=The devil=Satan challenges us all=

IN ways that=we could never IMAGINE=This book of Wisdom=also tells us=

That others may FIND=Our holy righteous living-“obnoxious”=But we MUST

Keep FOLLOWING=the Lord of Life=No matter what the cost=No matter what

The TEST=That is our challenge

Thoughts”                                                                                                                                          Psalm 139:23

The renewing of your mind=Then you will be able=TO TEST and approve=

What God’s will is=--------His good-pleasing-and perfect will”                                Romans 12:2

 

OUR TEMPTATION=is to fight back=With the WEAPONS of the world=When

We are being TESTED= in this life=To fight back physically=and to fight

BACK=with our WORDS=But that is the WORST thing we can do

 

When BEING TESTED=We need to RESPOND WITH PATIENT LOVE=and God’s

Endurance=The endurance and the PATIENCE=of our ever loving=Ever

Glory=to overlook an offense”                                                                                                Proverbs 19:11

Yourselves with compassion=Kindness=Humility=Gentleness=

And Patience”                                                                                                                               Colossians 3:12

 

YES=the challenge for us=as MODERN day Christians=When TESTED=is

To Face Temptations/challenges=With angry words and actions=But the

RIGHT CHOICE is to=Respond with THE PATIENT LOVE=Of Christ Jesus=

Dear Lord=we PRAY=in these LAST days of lent=WHEN we are TESTED=

Tested in our health=Tested in our finances=and tested in our RELATIONSHIPS

 

That we do RESPOND WITH THE PATIENT LOVE=Of our Holy Father God=and His

Son Jesus Christ=”I WAITED PATIENTLY=for the Lord=He turned to me=and heard

Me cry”                                                                                                                                                Psalm 40:1

“For in this hope=We are saved=But hope that is seen=is no hope at all=

Who hopes=for what=they already have?=But if we hope for=What we do not

Yet have=WE WAIT FOR IT PATIENTLY”                                                                             Romans 8:24-25

 

Dear Lord=IN this broken world=that we live in=with so many BROKEN PEOPLE=
WE pray=that when we ourselves=are BEING TESTED=That we RESPOND WITH the

PATIENT LOVE=that you taught us=IN THE PASSION=the crucifixion=and

THE RESURRECTION!

In Jesus’ name=and in the name=of our FOREVER LIVING=forever loving=ever

VICTORIOUS=Holy Father God!

Who art in heaven

Hallowed be your name

God

Your name

Above all others

 

Thy kingdom come

On earth, as it is heaven

May our world

Become like yours

Where we know

Only love

 

Give us this day

All life

Is a gift

From you Lord

 

Our daily bread

Not just food for our substance

But our spiritual essence

 

And forgive us our trespasses

You know us all too well

Lord

But please forgive us anyway

 

As we forgive those

Who trespass against us

Lord may we pass along

The mercy that you give to us

On to others

 

And lead us not into temptation

But deliver us from evil

Lord please guide us

In each and every moment

Of our lives

 

Our Father

The prayer of prayers

Amen

WE CAN DO ANYTHING=WHEN WE KNOW-------

 

 

 

 

 

WE CAN DO ANTHING=WHEN

(We know=the God of LOVE=LIVES in us)

 

ONE thing=That I HOPE all=of you KNOW=Is that this GOD OF LOVE=

LIVES in you=and lives in me=For WHEN we know this=No challenge

No mountain=Is too big for us=TO CLIMB=For we are CAPABLE of

Anything=CAN DO ANYTHING=When we know=THIS GOD OF

LOVE=Lives in us=”I will CUT a road=THROUGH all my mountains=and

Make my highways level”                                                                                                     Isaiah 49:11

 

For we KNOW=We are facing=FACING these challenges and mountains=

NOT with our own POWER=But In and with=the POWER OF GOD=We

Are CONNECTING=with the God above=THE GOD OF LOVE=and their POWERS=

And=WE CAN DO ANYTHING!=When we know=The God of love=is Leading

Us

 

“I KNOW=that my REDEEMER lives=and that in the end=He will stand on

The earth”                                                                                                                                         Job 19:25

“For this is what=The high and exalted ONE says=-----He who LIVES forever

Whose name is holy”                                                                                                                       Isaiah 57:15

“If you love me=Keep my commands=And I will ask the Father=and he will

Give you another ADVOCATE=To help you=and be with you forever=-----The

SPIRIT of truth=The world cannot accept him=Because it neither sees him=

Nor knows him=But you know him=FOR HE LIVES=with you=and will BE in you”

John 14:15-17

 

And so my FRIENDS=what challenges=What MOUNTAINS are you FACING=

In your life=right now?=You do not =HAVE to be afraid==For the Spirit of God=

THE SPIRIT OF LOVE=The POWER of the Almighty Father=and His SON=

Rests in you=and with you=WE CAN DO ANYTHING=When we KNOW=the

God of LOVE=Rests in us=and so does HIS POWER!

 

We are connecting with a POWER=Greater than us=We are NOT Jesus=Nor

One of his first apostles=But we are 21^st CENTURY APOSTLES=and disciples

Of Jesus Christ=and the Power of Jesus=and HIS FATHER=Moves in and with us=

“Yours Lord=is the Greatness=AND THE POWER=and the glory=and the splendor=

For everything

 

In heaven=and earth is yours=Yours Lord=is the kingdom=You are exalted as

Head over all”                                                                                                                          1 Chronicles 29:11

“Be strong and courageous=Do NOT be afraid or discouraged=Because of

The king of Assyria=and the vast army with him=For there is A GREATER POWER=

WITH US=than with him”                                                                                                    2 Chronicles 32:7

And so=MY BROTHERS AND SISTERS=We face many challenges=we FACE

Many mountains=in this life=But we can OVERCOME them=For our SUCCESS

Rests on=THE POWER of God=We can NAVIGATE those health issues=We can

WEATHER the financial crises=And we can ADJUST=to those RELATIONSHIP

Issues=WE CAN DO ANYTHING!=When we KNOW=The God of Love=LIVES

In us=and his power=”Jesus Replied’=You are in error=Because you do not know

The Scriptures=or the POWER OF GOD’”                                                                           Matthew 22:29

 

Dear brothers and sisters=We do NOT face our challenges=and OUR mountains

ALONE=We are fighting with=THE POWER of God=the power=OF LOVE

In Jesus’ name=and in the Name=of OUR ever loving=ever living=EVER

POWERFUL=Holy Father God!
