Being Grateful

Celebrating Thanksgiving gives us the opportunity to stop and think about being grateful.  Thank You, God, for creating me and my life.

At one time I was suicidal, and now I am filled with amazing joy.  Thank You, Jesus, for giving me Your love and peace with eternal salvation.

Since I work for the Lord, He provides for my every need and gives me supernatural help.  For this incredible relationship, I am very grateful.

He has brought so many wonderful people into my life that they are too numerous to mention.  However, there are two people that I rely on every week for help to do my work.

My Christian husband, J., does everything he can to support me, from editing theology to cooking.  The second person is Anna Mahler, my talented tech support.

She is the nicest person I ever met, and we have been working together since 2009 when the Lord brought her into my life.  He answered my prayer to have the perfect person to work with and has continued to answer my prayers many, many times since.

This support from Jesus is available for everyone, 24/7, anywhere and for anything.  He has supernatural power and gives us eternal life.

Now that is a miracle to be thankful for!

Giving Thanks

Instead of continuing with the story of my daughter's almost death from liver failure, here is an important message from the Lord about giving thanks.  I sure feel grateful!

He told me to read Psalm 100 in my dreams over and over again.  Here it is about giving thanks.

Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth.

Worship the Lord with gladness; come before Him with joyful songs.

Know that the Lord is God.

It is He who made us, and we are His; we are His people, the sheep of His pasture.

Enter his gates with thanksgiving and His courts with praise; give thanks to Him and praise His name.

For the Lord is good and His love endures forever; His faithfulness continues through all generations.

Happy Thanksgiving!

My Guidance Counselor

With the Holy Spirit, I have my own personal 24/7 counselor and guide.  This supernatural advising even includes reality checks that address my denial and selfishness.

The constant challenge to my ego helps keep me humble and focused, which is no easy task.  Nothing gets by Him because He knows my thoughts and secrets.

I now have unending, serious personal growth.  Thank you, Lord!  The most effective Counselor available is free and only a prayer away!

My Awakening

As a new Christian, I had God's guidance but did not always follow it.  I had relied on myself so much that I could not seem to understand or accept this new way of living.

After my many "no's" to God and then suffering the consequences from His discipline, I finally realized my foolishness.  Every time I finished what He told me to do, I always grew spiritually and learned that no matter how difficult the task appeared God would help make it happen.

The unpredictable support from humans was my frame of reference, but this did not apply in a relationship with God.  Supernatural support always involves miracles and amazing experiences to get the job done.

Thank you, Lord, for my discipline!  Pray to live a spiritual adventure!

Be A New Person!

The Bible book of Luke is the longest and most complete account of Jesus Christ.  

Like an investigative reporter, Luke interviewed many people and reported on their knowledge about Jesus and His mission of salvation.

Christ's message of love and truth gives us the hope and faith to spiritually thrive in this difficult world. 

Start the year as a new person with gratitude and thankfulness for this loving gift by accepting and following our Lord.  

Amen!

Praise The Creator!

The Bible book of Psalms was wrote in the form of songs and poetry to praise and/or petition God.

Many different authors contributed to this book from Moses to King David and Solomon.

God gave us all life and the opportunity to grow spiritually, so we should be very thankful and praise Him. 

Since our Creator loves each one of us, He is available 24/7 to help with our spiritual growth but not to spoil us.
