“Bad temper is contagious—don’t get infected.” Proverbs 22:25 MSG

Sometimes people can be rude, very rude. When other people are unkind to you, you may be tempted to strike back, either verbally or in some other way. Instead, remember that God corrects other people’s behaviors in His own way, and He doesn’t need your help (even if you’re totally convinced that He does). When other people behave cruelly, foolishly, or impulsively, don’t be hotheaded. Speak up for yourself as politely as you can, and walk away. Then forgive everybody as quickly as you can, and leave the rest up to God. Amen!

Help us, O God our Savior, for the glory of your name; deliver us and forgive our sins for your name's sake.’ Psalm 79:9

We don't deserve the grace we need! We have no right to presume God's forgiveness! We have no reason to expect divine deliverance! But in Jesus, God has shown us his incredible love and generosity.

We can confidently call out for His mercy and receive His grace, forgiveness, and deliverance — not because we deserve it, but because of who He is and for the sake of His glorious name.

In His Love, Do All You Can, While You Can, As Long As You Can, To All You Can….Have a Beautifully Blessed Day!

"As long as the earth endures, seedtime and harvest, cold and heat, summer and winter, day and night will never cease." Genesis 8:22

We face one of two realities. One reality is this: tomorrow will come, the earth will turn, and the seasons will pass in their appointed order. The second reality, God will interrupt his appointed order; Jesus will come and we'll share in his glory.

These realities are as sure as the sun's coming up in the morning and going down in the evening. Either way, God's promises win out over our fears and Satan's opposition. In other words, by God's grace, we win!

“O Israel, put your hope in the Lord, for with the Lord is unfailing love and with him is full redemption.” Psalm 130:7

What do we have here on earth that is unfailing and inexhaustible? Nothing!......except God’s unfailing love! Even when we disappoint, hurt, offend, or rebel against Him, He still loves us.

Whiles we were sinners He sent His son, Jesus Christ, to redeem us from sin and the penalty of death! Why trust anything or anyone else with our future? Let’s lean on God’s unfailing love!!

It’s not about US, it’s All about God!

If I rise on the wings of the dawn, if I settle on the far side of the sea, even there your hand will guide me, your right hand will hold me fast. Psalm 139:9-10

For those of us who find ourselves in places we shouldn’t be, the abiding presence of God might be a bit terrifying. We should find great comfort in knowing no matter where we go, from the moment of our conception to the day of our death, God is always there!

God the Father is always there to guide us and sustain us. Even when we are in places we are not supposed to be, doing things we are not supposed to do, He is still there! We can turn to Him in repentance and receive His grace; we can turn to Him in need and receive His strength and we can turn to Him and know we are not alone!

It’s not about US, it’s All about God!
