God isn’t calling us to a lonely, joyless existence with the promise of a delayed reward.
God is calling us to live, to love and enjoy the challenge.
God’s formulas are roadmaps to freedom and peace.
God is saying to us:
“The only way to live is to be free. So save your heart for love and save your love for persons. Don’t ever let any ‘thing’ own you. Don’t let money or fame or power or the pursuit of pleasure put a ring in your nose and lead you around. Love persons and use things.”
And of course, this is the only way to live, to be free.
John Powell
The angels teach us to find beauty and worth in all our earthly activities.
Matt 17:20 He replied, "Because you have so little faith. I tell you the truth, if you have faith as small as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain, 'Move from here to there' and it will move."
Great strength exists in the smallest things. The spiders web is so exquisitely formed, a fragile, delicate remnant, yet is stronger in proportion to size and weight than the finest steel.
Mark 11:22-25 v.24 Therefore I tell you, whatever you ask for in prayer, believe that you have received it and it will be yours.
If we need something and we have asked for it through prayer, then get ready to receive it. Getting ready to receive it is a part of the asking, an act of faith that the answer is on its way.
We do so little to prepare for it and when it happens the first thing we say is, "I can't believe it." Whisper...Believe it, because it is the assurance of receiving. Your Sister In Christ, Brown Eagle
Out back in the gardens I have my fair share of sparrows. They sit on the fences with endless chatter all day long, back and forth between themselves. A daily gossip flock, with much wing pointing. They talk the talk, but little time is left, spent walking the walk. James 1:22 Rarely do these type of birds grow in the Lord. 2Tim2:16 Avoid Godless chatter, because those who indulge in it will become more and more ungodly. Sadly, many "need to knows" give these birds an audience. A fence can become ones stage.
Sparrow News Flash: Rocking Robin went to jail, Woody Woodpecker was fired from his job, Patsy Penguin down sick with pneumonia, one of Betsy Blue Jays eggs fell out of the nest and broke to pieces, Willard Wrens birdhouse burned down last night...
I have often asked: will the Lord hold us accountable for the chatter that is heard?
Mt25:37 Then the righteous will answer Him, 'Lord, when did we see You hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you something to drink? When did we see You a stranger and invite You in, or needing clothes and clothe You? When did we see You sick or in prison and go to visit You?' ***Lord, do we SEE as soon as we HEAR?***
The Lord gave us wings: not to tuck in, but to reach out to others. In love and reaching out to those with need, glorifies God by reflecting our love for Him. Whisper...Besides, my fence would be unable to hold up, if every bird decided to just sit and continue the chatter. YSIC Brown Eagle
We have a saying with Little Bear when something at home gets broken: "Don't worry, Pop Pop can try and fix it." Some pieces are not fixable, but yet they are still usable.
I collect pottery. Each piece is beautiful. Some are smooth with bright shades. They are perfectly shaped, with no visible flaws. I also have other pieces just as beautiful. These pieces are worn on the surface with faded colors. Some are chipped, cracked, or broken in places. Whisper: some are held together with glue.
Today for some pieces of broken pottery, I hear whispers in the winds of: worthless, replace, not good enough, no more use or purpose for, toss, imperfect, upgrade, unfit. Sadly these words speak towards people as well. Isa45:9 Rom9:21
Some pieces the Lord may choose to fix/glue. Isa61:1-3 reminds us: to bind up the broken hearted, to bestow on them beauty for ashes. Psm147:31Pet2:4
But then, there are some pieces that the Lord sees no need for fixing.
2 Cor12:7-10 reminds us that Paul pleaded with the Lord to take away his thorn in the flesh. v9 But He said to me, "My grace is sufficient for you, for My power is made perfect in weakness." 1Cor1:28 He chose the lowly things of this world and the despised things--and the things that are not--to nullify the things that are, Isa 55:8 Acts2:6Mt5:3-12 James2:5
Lord, not all broken pieces need removed, replaced, or glued. Through Your grace, I see Your glory shining through broken clay pots. Others see Your light, not the brokeness. It is Gods love for us that binds and holds these broken pieces together. YSIC Brown Eagle
Hey Linda, sorry its taken so long to get back to you, but i have been having probs with my computer and having hard time doing graphics. So anyway, just thought i would update you:) thanks for the comments. Have a great 4th in the USA:) God bless
LIFT UP YOUR HEADS, O YE GATES (HERE WE ARE CALLED GATES! WE DECIDE WHEN THIS LAST MOVE OF GOD'S POWER WILL BEGIN! THE DOOR TO THIS MOVE IS IN OUR POWER! WE ARE THE GATES! AND BE YE LIFTED UP, YE EVERLASTING DOORS; (DOORS THROUH WHICH HIS POWER CAN FLOW, WE ARE THOSE DOORS!) AND THE KING OF GLORY SHALL COME IN.
HE WILL PASS HIS GLORY AND MAJESTY INTO THE CHURCH AND WORLD THROUGH YIELDED VESSELS---THATS US!
WHO IS THE KING OF GLORY? THE LORD STRONG AND MIGHTY, THE LORD MIGHTY IN BATTLE, lift up your heads o ye gates; even lift them up ye everlasting doors; and the king of glory shall come in.
WHO IS THE KING OF GLORY? THE LORD OF HOST, HE IS THE KING. LET THIS GREAT CONFRONTATION BEGIN!
An Angel says, 'Never borrow from the future. If you worry about what may happen tomorrow and it doesn't happen, you have worried in vain. Even if it does happen, you have to worry twice.'
1. Pray
2. Go to bed on time.
3. Get up on time so you can start the day unrushed.
4. Say No to projects that won't fit into your time schedule, or that will compromise your mental health.
5. Delegate tasks to capable others.
6. Simplify and unclutter your life.
7. Less is more. (Although one is often not enough, two are often too many.)
8. Allow extra time to do things and to get to places..
9. Pace yourself. Spread out big changes and difficult projects over time; don't lump the hard things all together.
10. Take one day at a time.
11. Separate worries from concerns . If a situation is a concern, find out what God would have you do and let go of the anxiety . If you can't do anything about a situation, forget it.
12. Live within your budget; don't use credit cards for ordinary purchases.
13. Have backups; an extra car key in your wallet, an extra house key buried in the garden, extra stamps, etc.
14. K.M.S. (Keep Mouth Shut). This single piece of advice can prevent an enormous amount of trouble.
15. Do something for the Kid in You everyday.
16. Carry a Bible with you to read while waiting in line.
17. Get enough rest
18. Eat right.
19 Get organized so everything has its place.
20. Listen to a tape while driving that can help improve your quality of life.
21. Write down thoughts and inspirations.
22. Every day, find time to be alone.
23. Having problems? Talk to God on the spot. Try to nip small problems in the bud. Don't wait until it's time to go to bed to try and pray.
24. Make friends with Godly people.
25. Keep a folder of favorite scriptures on hand.
26. Remember that the shortest bridge between despair and hope is often a good 'Thank you Jesus .'
27. Laugh.
28. Laugh some more!
29. Take your work seriously, but not yourself at all.
30. Develop a forgiving attitude (most people are doing the best they can).
31. Be kind to unkind people (they probably need it the most).
32. Sit on your ego
33 Talk less; listen more.
34. Slow down.
35. Remind yourself that you are not the general manager of the universe.
36 Every night before bed, think of one thing you're grateful for that you've never been grateful for before.
