Jesus' Followers Are The Salt and Light of the World

-
Salt and Light “You are the salt of the earth. But if the salt loses its saltiness, how can it be made salty again? It is no longer good for anything, except to be thrown out and trampled underfoot.

 “You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden.  Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house.  In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven. Matthew 5:13-15

God will Hold You in His Hands

"You have been a refuge for the poor, a refuge for the needy in his distress, a shelter from the storm and a shade from the heat. For the breath of the ruthless is like a storm driving against a wall and like the heat of the desert...Isaiah 25:4-5" One summer heavy downpours flooded a large area near my childhood home.  The stroms were followed by blazing heat, making cleanup miserable .  Tears fill my eyes as I saw pictures and read news stories that described the devastation.  Then I read that area churches- and some from far away had provided temporary shelters and food for those whose homes were ruined.  What blessed relief it was for these hurting people to have some respite from the forces of nature beyond their control.   God is such a shelter.  Like a welcome shade in the summer heat or a strong wall of protection agaist storms, He is there for us when   life is overwhelming. Whether our distress comes from physical troubles,...

Overcome Evil With Good

-
Image
And God raised us up with Christ and seated us with him in the heavenly realms in Christ Jesus, in order that in the coming ages he might show the incomparable riches of his grace, expressed in his kindness to us in Christ Jesus. — Ephesians 2:6-7 Kindness. We will often be praying for people whose lives have been wrecked by sin. Many haven't been taught social skills, and they have unlovely characteristics about them. Many have embraced wrong teachings and even are oppressed by demons. We must be braced to gracefully absorb some of their immaturity and deal kindly with their deception. We must overcome evil with good and be kind to those who are unkind to us. This honors the Lord and gives them the best chance to get His help. { PRAYER STARTER } Make me a kind person, Spirit. Let me express the kindness of our loving heavenly Father. Help me to overcome the evil around and in me with the response of spiritual kindness. We must overcome evil with good and be ...

God Blessed the Family

Prayer God bless the familes in the US and  around the world.  Then God blessed Noah and his sons, saying to them, "Be fruitful and increase in number and fill the earth .Genesis 9:1 The ark of God remained with the family of Obed-Edom in his house for three months, and the LORD blessed his household and everything he had. 1Cronicles 13:14 I will bless those who bless you, and whoever curses you I will curse; and all peoples on earth will be blessed through you." Genesis 12:31 God said, Let Us [Father, Son, and Holy Spirit] make mankind in Our image, after Our likeness, and let them have complete authority over the fish of the sea, the birds of the air, the [tame] beasts, and over all of the earth, and over everything that creeps upon the earth.   So God created man in His own image, in the image and likeness of God He created him; male and female He created them.   And God blessed them and said to them, Be fruitful, multiply, and fill the e...

HAVEST MOON---LUNA de HAVEST--AUGUST/SEPTEMBER

Let both grow together until the harvest. At that time I will tell the harvesters: First collect the weeds and tie them in bundles to be burned; then gather the wheat and bring it into my barn. Matthew 13:30 NIV Dejen que crezcan juntos hasta la cosecha. Entonces les diré a los segadores: Recojan primero la mala hierba, y átenla en manojos para quemarla; después recojan el trigo y guárdenlo en mi granero. Mateo 13:30 NVI " Tares" (KJV) or weeds (NIV) here are darnel (Lolium temulentum), a poisonous weed organically related to wheat and difficult to distinguish from wheat in the early stages of its growth (Jeremias 1972:224). (Calling them "tares" may tempt a preacher given to puns to title a sermon on this passage a "tare-ible parable.") Given the occasional feuding of rival farmers (Derrett 1973:43), it is not surprising that Roman law would specifically forbid sowing such poisonous plants in another's field (Hepper et al. 1982:948) or that one who fo...
