#FRIDAY’S SPIRITUAL NUGGETS WHAT IS YOUR WORD?


Image result for what is the word that God gave to you? scripture images

The last few months of my life have been a little shaky, on so many fronts, and in the midst of it, I’ve been studying the book of Isaiah, discovering words that were made just for me, on days just for me (Smiles)
Some of my favorites are:
Isa 46:4 (TLB)
 I will be your God through all your lifetime, yes, even when your hair is white with age. I made you and I will care for you. I will carry you along and be your Savior.
Isa 29:17 (TLB)
Soon-and it will not be very long-the wilderness of Lebanon will be a fruitful field again, a lush and fertile forest.
I’ve come to the conclusion that a Christian who has no scriptural words to tackle situations is like a farmer without a hoe, or worse still a soldier who has a gun which is empty of bullets.
And so, the question this Friday is to the Christian reading this…what is your word?
What has God told you about the situation you’re in?
What is that passage of scripture you’re holding on to?
If you don’t have any, I’d suggest you pray and ask God to show you where ‘it is written concerning you’, and only because that will be your stabilizer, through rough and turbulent times. 
As someone said 'God's plan for your life far exceeds the circumstances of your day'. If one doesn't find out those plans, of course the circumstances of the day might be overwhelming.
Read the words in the picture again (*smiles*smiles*smiles).

#POETRY# MOMENTS

So, it’s another Monday. Today’s poem is on moments, appreciating them and taking second looks at the seemingly mundane. Enjoy! MOMENTS You never know, you just never know There he was last night, holding your hands, Looking into your eyes with passion beyond expression, And then; here he was this morning, telling a sad tale of never! Who knew love could become so tasteless overnight? It had seemed over in less than a flash; So much for the deep love you shared. Where it all ends, you just never know! Memories of baby’s not so far away childhood, Flickered before her eyes like a dimly lit flame Was it not just last summer she had started crawling? And in what appeared to be less than 24hours, She had walked, jumped and taken sandwiches to school And now, she fit smugly into a graduation gown, cape and all, Her baby was now a grown woman And those memories were all she had left! He stroked her tapered fingers lovingly as he wept by her beds...

LIKE FAITH AND LOVE

Gal 5:6 - For [if we are] in Christ Jesus, neither circumcision nor uncircumcision counts for anything, but only faith activated and energized and expressed and working through love. The heart and the lungs are like faith and love, their functions intertwined, their locations proximate, the feelings that they generate just as conclusive. They produce hope for the survival of the physical body, just like faith and love produce hope for the spiritual body’s survival. Experiences of today made me realize something: we need faith intertwined with love to breathe as spirit beings, as much as we need the functional capacity of our cardio-respiratory apparatuses to breathe the breath of life. It’s that important…faith and love I mean.
