The Native American Indians in our simplicity, are taught to literally give away all that we have--to relatives, to guests of other tribes or clans, but above all to the poor and the aged, from whom we can hope for no return.

Matthew 6:3... But when you give to the needy, do not let your left hand know what your right hand is doing, so that your giving may be in secret.

When out gardening with my husband...the meanings of Matt. 6:3 kept running through my mind. I understood what the Lord was trying to teach..but the Lord took it a little further with me that day...a deeper insight...(whisper...as Pamela would call it a light bulb moment)...Maybe also our giving should be so automatic...that there is no time, thought, questioning...even b4 our other hand realizes what is being let go of....just do it. Release...give...let go.

Matt. 25:31-37...Then the righteous will answer Him, Lord, "WHEN DID WE SEE" You hungry and feed you, or give You drink when you were thirsty, invite You in as a stranger, clothed You, visit You when You were sick or in prison? Verse 40..The King will reply, I tell you the truth, whatever you did for one of the least of these brothers of mine, you did for me." Acts 20:35, 2 Cor. 9:7, Proverbs 21:26

Whisper...could "be in secret" also include ones self?

As I slowly walk through life
My spirit fights against my flesh
Some days my spirit wins
Other days it ends in a draw
That is when I ask my God and Savior if we can sit down and talk
I can remember once in late November right before December Jesus said to me
My son I never promise you that life would be easy
While you are on this earth you will always be tempted
This I want you to remember
The seasons will change for on this earth nothing stays the same
You need to remember that I your Lord and Savior will never leave you to fight alone
Remember that you are a family member
I will not let you burn like timber
My son oh my son you don't have to run
Wait for when I come and watch the evil one run!
Until that day be a light and walk upright in my light
Oh my Lord Jesus Your words hit me just right
I will bathe in your holy light
Thank you Jesus for Your insight
Rest with me tonight
For the devil is in for a fight
My sword has been sharpened, which is your word my God!

The Call….

“To be Single for a Season”

“To be single for a season” - Psalms 31:15 (a)
“my times (my seasons) are in your hand” KJV

What you need to know:
(1) Your single condition is not a mistake
(2) Its a call of God… for a season.

Definitions:
(1) a call- to *summon to a specific duty(*call for or send for authority or urgency; to call upon to do something)
(2) a season- the time when something *specified (*stated clearly as the condition: in this case singleness) flourishes, develops, takes place, or is popular, permitted, or at its best. We call this the single season. It is a time to be single. These should be characteristic of the single life- flourishing (productivity), developing (spiritual growth), at its best (in your love relationship with Jesus).

For some, your single season is at a beginning point; others, a mid point; for some you are coming to a finishing point; and some…. the call is for life.

The call to be single- I Corinthians 7:1(b), 7,8,9,26,27(b),28,29,32,34,35
“but I wish everyone were single, just as I am (as Jesus was). But God gives to some the gift of marriage, and others the gift of singleness.” NLT
Truth about the call:
(1) VS. 1 (b)- it is a good and perfect gift; it is a spiritual gift (therefore, there is keeping power for the single)
(2) vs. 8,9,26,27(b),28- it is better to wait for God’s timing to marry
(3) vs. 32,34 it’s a time when you can go anywhere to do anything to build and to advance God’s Kingdom; it’s a time when you can please God with more worship, more praise, more time in study of His Word, more fasting, more evangelizing, more…..etc….
(5) vs. 35 - it is what is best for you at this time (to develop spiritual disciplines, to keep you from sin and to prepare you for the *future* (the times\seasons God has planned for you)

The Call… to be single for a season… is the season
