John 1:1 In the beginning was the Word, And the Word was with God, And the Word was God.
So many people in the world and so many different views of life overall. With different views come different lifestyles. And, different beliefs. Sometimes different views can be frustrating. For an example, I love God and recognize Him as the one true God.
I know He is the one true Sovereign being, the one true Living God. The Creator of all things. It seems so simple for me, because my belief is so strong. I trust in Him, I run to Him for counsel, guidance, for communication. I love His Word, because it comes from His heart and is meant for my heart. For me, there is no other way -He is my comfort and my world is secure knowing Him and loving Him. He is my everything.
On the other side of the coin is the “non-believers” who simply think the world came from a “Big Bang” and their theory is based on “Scientific” research. Well, again for me, God is the Master Scientist-He created all things. The non-believers on the other hand, see God as a “Myth” and the Word, His very Word-as nothing more than a fable put together purely for entertainment value.
This is what I referred to in my first paragraph – “it can be frustrating” when people’s views are the antithesis of your own beliefs. Especially when it comes to GOD. I want to scream sometimes, when I hear individuals say, ‘boy I was so lucky.” Luck? Are you kidding me luck? There is no Luck, there is GOD who is behind all things at all times. The Lord is our safe haven, our shelter, our best friend, our “go to person” for all of your activities of everyday life.
When a baby came back from being pronounced dead for nine full minutes – was that luck?
When a young man who was diagnosed “brain dead” and in an inreversible coma woke up
and had full brain capacity- was that luck?
When a woman looking for her son she gave up for adoption 25 years earlier showed up at her place of employment working alongside of her- was that luck?
When we were born and were given life – was that luck?
The reason is simple and to the point – GOD.
Thank you my Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. Thank you for all that you are, and all that you have done. I recognize we must respect one another and keep peace. Thank you for providing the wisdom during the course of my day to overcome situations that are challenging. Thank you for providing your voice as the barometer of morality. Thank you for the providing me the “platform through writing” to exalt your Powerful Name, and to give you all the glory and honor. Thank you for providing me with the necessary tools to promote your Word, by example-and shining the Light of Jesus Christ’s love to others.
Although there are different views and lifestyles, and we are all different in appearance and backgrounds. One thing is abundantly clear – we all have ONE FATHER. One day, the world will recognize that, and every knee will bow and every lip shall proclaim you as Our Lord and Savior.
Yes one day everyone will realize you are Our Christ, our Lord, Our God, Our Savior. But, how fortunate for those of us who recognize this truth right now. Amen.
John 1-5 KJV
3 All things were made by him;
And without him was not any thing made
That was made.
4 In him was life;
And the life was the light of men.
5 And the light shineth in darkness;
and the darkness comprehended it not.
John 9-12 KJV
9 That was the true Light,
Which lighteth every man
that cometh into the world.
10 He was in the world,
And the world was made by him,
And the world knew him not.
11 He came unto his own,
And his own received him not.
12 But as many as received him,
To them gave he power
To become the sons of God,
Even to them that believe on his name
John 14 KJV
14 And the Word was made flesh,
And dwelt among us, (and we beheld his glory,
The glory as of the only begotten of the Father,)
Full of grace and truth
My friend in Christ. First of all, I love the contrast of the purple blossoming tree draped on your webpage. It is a royal color and royal rhymes with ‘loyal’. And you my friend, are loyal to our sweet Lord and Saviour and to your audience.
Like a breathe of fresh air, my spirit witnesses with what you said here. I too, have been ‘grieved’ lately, by hearing that dreadful, meaningless word “LUCK”. That’s like saying “chance”, and God does not play “chance” games.
The other day a “Christian” lady was telling me how she almost died, but she was amazed to still be breathing. “I was lucky.” she went on. Amazed at her lack of faith, I immediately voided it out, “You mean BLESSED, don’t you?”
You did a marvelous job showing us it is ‘God’ who resurrects one’s life AND faith. I will be back to read more.
Blessings,
Mary
Hello My Friend In Christ – Thank you for stopping by and commenting on my website that is devoted to God. Your words touched my heart, and I am sure pleased our Father. I am so proud of you for telling that lady, “you mean blessed, don’t you?” That is standing up for God and showing your faith boldy while solidifying your belieff and your love for the Lord. Thanks for sharing that incident…Come back again. See you then. “God Bless you Mary~”
My Dear Friend
How wonderful to see an obedient servant of the Lord
* presenting His word of life to his people*
2 Corinthians 3:17 (NKJV)
Where the Spirit of the Lord is, There is liberty.

Blessed is the man who trusts in Him!

And I thanked The Lord for His confirmation!
” I am the Bread of Life ”
John 6:34-35 ( NKJV)
35 And Jesus said to them, I am the bread of life.
He who comes to Me shall never hunger,
And he who believes in Me shall never thirst.
God always fulfills his promises……..
* Notice the conditions here in John 6:34-35?
Those who > Comes to him and > Believes!!!!!
God is then able to fulfill what He has promised !!!
” We shall never hunger and shall never thirst.”
Also:
” God said we are to eat the whole Loaf ”
Not just in *His Blessings……
But We are to walk even as He walked.
1 John 2:6 ( NKJV)
6 He who says he abides in Him
Ought himself also > to walk Just as He walked.
” Gods Light ”
The Darkness is past…..
The True Light now shineth!!!
Epistles of John > 1 John 2:8 ( KJV)
8 Again, a new commandment I write unto you,
Which thing is true in him and in you:
Because the darkness is past, <
And the true light now shineth. <
Psalm 27 (NKJV) * David
1 The LORD is my light and my salvation;
Whom shall I fear?
The LORD is the strength of my life;
Of whom shall I be afraid?
