Friday June 17th

Good afternoon all -

Just a note in SPACE - from Jerry Bridges book "The Discipline of Grace:God's Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness" -

In justification we rely on what Christ did for us on the cross - It's done
In sanctification we rely on Christ to work in us by His Holy Spirit - it's done daily

(Italics are mine)

The hard message on the radio from the late Pastor Robert Cook:
DO WE LOVE GOD with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength?
Then we should Love our neighbors as well.
BUT DO WE? DO WE FAIL TO LOVE GOD with all our hearts, soul, mind and strength? Because where is the LOVE OUR Neighbors in our heart?
Do we love other people, stuff MORE than we love GOD?
IF so repent to GOD - Please forgive me in putting everything first and you, God, last!
The best part - GOD forgives and opens your heart with all HIS LOVE!!

May God direct your footsteps today!!
Peace,
Helene

Thursday June 16th

Good morning!

A couple of thoughts -

The Good news - the Gospel...I read recently by Jerry Bridges the book
"The Discipline of Grace:God's Role and Our Role in the Pursuit of Holiness"... he reminds the Christians to preach the Gospel - the Good news ...to ourselves every day!!!!

Also I was listening to the Bridge (89.7) a wonderful radio stations with biblical sermons... This one particular sermon (summary of sorts that I can remember-lol) about the astronauts and their space suits...they don't go in space their suits brings them to space...in their suits they bring the world with them such as air, warm and such to survive... So we as Christians have Jesus Christ as our 'suits' (He is what we need to survive in this world)...without Jesus who are we??? Also why don't or why can't we ALL see Jesus? Are we different around others? Do they see Jesus in us??

May God be a light always,
Peace to all!

Happy Sunday - March 27th 2011

Oswald Chambers - Run Today's Race -

He does it again!!

March 21 and March 25

21) When we TRY to reserve OUR strength it works out weariness. Spend to the hilt ALL WE have got and GOD'S recreating POWER is GREATER than all expended power. (Isn't that the TRUTH!!) (cap's mine)

REMEMBER:

25) Unless in the first waking moment of the day you learn to fling the door wide back and LET GOD IT, you will work on a WRONG level all day, BUT swing the DOOR WIDE OPEN and PRAY to your FATHER in secret and every public thing will be stamped with the presence of GOD. (WOW) (cap's mine)

From me: Our strength must come from GOD otherwise we are no different than anyone's else. The best part for me is the PEACE that transcends all understanding happens when the strength of GOD envelopes you!!!

Thank you GOD - He is an AWESOME GOD!!
Peace to ALL!!!
