Good Morning,

Peace and quietness comes to all whose faith and trust is in the Lord.  Those who form a willing godly, repentive, obedient heart, seeking the Kingdom of God, have an inner peace that surpasses all understanding.  If we know and do all His commandments, Abide in His word, and His love, pray without ceasing, giving thanks for everything, 1 Thessalonians 5.17-18.  And in word and deed, do all in the name of Lord Jesus being thankful through Him, Colossians 3.17.  Your light will shine brightly, and others will see your good works and glorify our Heavenly Father, Matthew 5.16.  And you will experience a true inner peace that can only come from living a quiet godly life.  "Be still and know that I am God."  Thus says the Lord.

GOOD MORNING,

The simple believes every word, but the prudent considers well his steps.   A wise man fears and departs from evil, but a fool rages and is self confident.  A quick tempered man acts foolishly.  And a man of wicked intentions is hated.  The simple inherit folly, but the prudent are crowned with knowledge.  The evil will bow before the good, and the wicked at the gates of righteousness.  Proverbs 14.15-19.  Disciples, who is wise and understanding among you?  Show by good conduct that your works. are done in the meekness of wisdom.  See James 3.13.  Forget not, there is a way that seems right to man, but its end is the way of death. Proverbs 14.12.  And remember the eyes of the Lord are in every place, keeping watch on the evil and the good.  Proverbs 15.3.  Seek. good and not evil.  Amos 5.14.  Abstain from every form of evil.

Good Morning,

We must, according to the scriptures, consider the cost of discipleship.  For if we do not bear His cross and follow after Him, we cannot be His disciple. See Luke 14. 25-30.  Temptations are raging around us in this perverse, crooked and adulterous generation in which we live.  Taking up our cross daily to follow Christ means we must know and do His commandments. John 14.15.  Repentance of our sins is ongoing and ever present in our lives.  It is easy enough say the words, Lord I have sinned, please forgive me this sin, or something similar and then continue to live in this same sin.  True repentance is first recognizing and confessing our sins, ask for the Lord's forgiveness and then turning from those sins never to indulge in them again.  The Christian life, the determination to take up our cross and follow Him, is not an easy life, but true repentance comes from a good, honest, and faithful heart, then the Lord will be faithful to forgive us our sins.  With God all things are possible, and He has promised to never leave nor forsake us. Mark 10.27; Hebrews 13.5.

Good Morning,

The Lord searches the heart and understands the all the intents of the thoughts.  God cannot be known as we know each other. but His character can be known by what He has revealed to us.  If we seek Him with a true heart and a willing mind He can be found by us.  But is we forsake Him we will be forever cast off.  God must be served; He must be obeyed. 1 Chronicles 28.9. we must choose to follow Him with an honest heart and a willing mind, not grudgingly, but with a pure heart and of our free will.  Let us repent and bow humbly before His throne and walk humbly with Him.  Allow Him to make His home in us.

Christians are like sheep living in the midst of wolves because of the evil days we are in.  Therefore we must not be foolish, but wise in our speech and understanding.  Always keeping the will of the Lord, rejoicing in His goodness and always praying with thankful hearts to God the Father of our Lord, Jesus Christ.  If we will let our light shine brightly, someone may see our good works and praise our Heavenly Father.  So always love God, do good, hate and expose evil.  This is the will of the Father for us.
