Reasons

 If you wonder why things happen the way they do
There is a reason
If you think you can change history
There is a reason why u can’t
This life deals us different blows
There is a reason
When you find yourself heart struck with love
There is a reason

There is a time for everything,
A time to be born and a time to die,
A time to plant and a time to uproot,
A time to kill and a time to heal,
A time to tear down and a time to build,
A time to weep and a time to laugh,
A time to mourn and a time to dance,
A time to scatter stones and a time to gather them,
A time to embrace and a time to refrain,
A time to search and a time to give up,
A time to keep and a time to throw away,
A time to tear and a time to mend,
A time to be silent and a time to speak,
A time to love and a time to hate,
A time for war and a time for peace.

I can't think of any reason
Why I shouldn’t love you
You are in my heart
You are in my mind
You are in my soul
My Darling, my love, my sweet embrace
I find that I am loving u more
Today than I did yesterday
There is one thing I discovered
I need no Reason to Love you
My sweet love the love of my life
I Love You

Yesterday, Today, Tomorrow

Have you ever wondered
Will tomorrow ever come?
When you think it is tomorrow
it is actually today 
and the past today is now yesterday
So what you might think that 
Today is actually yesterdays tomorrow
but it is not known as yesterdays tomorrow
you actually then call it today.

So all of this to say Live for Jesus today
thank Him for all your yesterdays and
Ask Him to bless all your tomorrows
 Have a great day all.

This Days Thought

THOUGHT...Many Christians estimate difficulties in the light of their own resources, and thus attempt little and often fail in the little they attempt. All God’s giants have been weak men who did great things for God because they reckoned on His power and presence being with them. -James Hudson Taylor

VERSE... Turn from evil and do good; then you will dwell in the land forever. For the LORD loves the just and will not forsake his faithful ones. They will be protected forever, but the offspring of the wicked will be cut off; the righteous will inherit the land and dwell in it forever.
Psalm 37:27-29 The New International Version

SMILE...The older I get, the surer I am that I’m not running the show. -Leonard Cohen

Finding Jesus for you!

I found this in a article I just read.
It ministered to me.
By Kirk Bartha
I recently witnessed this expression of grace in my eight-year-old daughter. Bree Bree was curled up in a big comfy chair by the fireplace , enjoying a bit of quiet time. With her Bible in her hands, she took a deep breath, relaxed into the sacrament of the present moment, and ask God what she should read.
After a few moment of silence, Bree mumbled herself through the pages, arrived at a destination, pondered thoughtfully- then began reading aloud, becoming more and more amazed with every word. 
Eyes afire, Bree burst out, "Dad, in Mark 10, Jesus said to his disciples, 'Let the little children come to me, and do not hinder them, for the kingdom of God Belongs to such as these. Truly I tell you, anyone who will not receive the kingdom of God like a little child will never enter it.' And he took the children in his arms, placed his hands on them and blessed them."
In simple faith and quiet amazement Bree know God was speaking to her about being with him, about His kingdom being with Him, about His kingdom belonging to her, about her entering His presence, about Him receiving her, laying His hands on her and blessing her. 
Bree understood the treasure she'd found. She squeezed her Bible close to her heart and giggled with Joy. My eyes and heat welled up in the promise of my daughter's faith, as she enjoyed the proclamation and presence of her God.

When I hear my own child give the thanks to Jesus for the little things in life it warms my heart. My son, Travis, just got his Drivers licence. When we were talking driving home he said Thank you Jesus as we talked. I told him I was praying for him as he took the test, and he told me he was praying as well. Giving thanks to Jesus for the small things in life is paramount. If you see Jesus' hand in the small things then the faith you gain from those will give you greater ability to believe for the big things.

God Bless you

Remember when

There are many times we look to the past and say
"Remember when..."
Today is the future of all the yesterdays
"Remember when..."
Tomorrow will never come!
"Remember when"
When the day is here we thought would take forever it becomes a
"Remember when..."

If you live for today and not dwell on the past, but learn from the experiences that you had,  your tomorrows will be bright and full of anticipated Joy.

Remember the best thing that happened in the past is, JESUS DIED FOR YOU AND FOR ME, so that we might have eternal life. Live for Him Today and your tomorrows will be directed for you.

I Love Your Presence

He will guide you through your day
Yes even through the little things
God Bless you

Snow

Snow
When winter keeps on staying around we find a way to complain about it
When there is snow on the ground whine whine whine
When it rains in the summer one will say "Will this rain ever stop"
When it is windy there is some comments to the negative

Perhaps one might say (instead of complaining) a word of thanks:
Thank you Father for the snow, for it brings moisture
Thank you Father for the rain, it is called the liquid sunshine!
When it is windy we can remember the Breath of God

Give thanks for the Day and be grateful for the blessings of the season.
Try to think positively for the day!

Jesus is the Answer!

So today brings a new week.
I hope that you all who read this
have a great week
When you reflect on the previous week
you may wonder to yourself
What difference can I do?
Or perhaps
What difference Can I make this week?
Keep in mind who is the Lord of your life
and Live for Him
Remember Jesus is the answer

“Gift of God”


The most amazing thing 
in this world is to 
Have a gift from God
As you look to the future to 
see what that gift is
You may wonder, 
“What do I do and 
where am I going?
As the day comes and
you make that decision 
To where you are going
You move from what 
you’re use too 
to something that is
Totally strange to you, 
keeping in mind and 
in heart that
The decision should be totally 
based on the one person
Who has changed you and 
is changing you every day


You may look up one day 
and pray asking God 
“What special purpose 
do you have for my life?” 
You look for the answer and 
you may not see it right away
God is forever helping 
you to make those things,
Which in your life 
you may think are important, 
Go according to His will 
and not your own


Yet you may wonder if you 
have made the right choices
You may wonder if 
He is pleased with you
You may wonder if you should 
Continue on in the 
way you are going
You even may have doubts 
about what you have done
But I say to you 
that you should 
Continue in the 
way you are going 
I see that you are a true 
child of God 
And you are following the path in
Which God has intended 
for you to follow


I would say to you 
You Are a mighty 
man of God and 
you reflect theTeaching of 
Godly parents in your life
I give special thanks 
to your parents
For you, you are a true
Gift of God

Casting Your Cares


As God's child, today is your best day because you are totally and completely dependent upon Him....God is your only rock, your only security, your only certainty , and your only hope....Dependency upon God means that your life is in the hands of the One who created the heavens, painted the sunsets, who set the earth in space, and whose hand formed every creature that walks, swims, crawls, runs, or flies. Dependency upon God means that you have set your heart upon Him and put your faith in Him. God will not fail you. Roy Lessin
7Casting the whole of your care [all your anxieties, all your worries, all your concerns,once and for all] on Him, for He cares for you affectionately and cares about you watchfully.
   1 Peter 5:7 Amplified Bible
When you give your whole life to God and commit every aspect of it to his care and design you will succeed.


God Bless your Day

Ephesians 2:4-7

  But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ- by grace you have been saved- and raised us up with him and seated us with him in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, so that in the coming ages he might show the immeasurable riches of his grace in kindness toward us in Christ Jesus.  

  Ephesians 2:4-7

I was not disobedient to the heavenly vision —Acts 26:19


I Read this this morning and found it to be awesome.
It is by Oswald Chambers
If we lose “the heavenly vision” God has given us, we alone are responsible— not God. We lose the vision because of our own lack of spiritual growth. If we do not apply our beliefs about God to the issues of everyday life, the vision God has given us will never be fulfilled. The only way to be obedient to “the heavenly vision” is to give our utmost for His highest— our best for His glory. This can be accomplished only when we make a determination to continually remember God’s vision. But the acid test is obedience to the vision in the details of our everyday life— sixty seconds out of every minute, and sixty minutes out of every hour, not just during times of personal prayer or public meetings.
“Though it tarries, wait for it . . .” (Habakkuk 2:3). We cannot bring the vision to fulfillment through our own efforts, but must live under its inspiration until it fulfills itself. We try to be so practical that we forget the vision. At the very beginning we saw the vision but did not wait for it. We rushed off to do our practical work, and once the vision was fulfilled we could no longer even see it. Waiting for a vision that “tarries” is the true test of our faithfulness to God. It is at the risk of our own soul’s welfare that we get caught up in practical busy-work, only to miss the fulfillment of the vision.
Watch for the storms of God. The only way God plants His saints is through the whirlwind of His storms. Will you be proven to be an empty pod with no seed inside? That will depend on whether or not you are actually living in the light of the vision you have seen. Let God send you out through His storm, and don’t go until He does. If you select your own spot to be planted, you will prove yourself to be an unproductive, empty pod. However, if you allow God to plant you, you will “bear much fruit” (John 15:8).
It is essential that we live and “walk in the light” of God’s vision for us (1 John 1:7).

Take it to the Lord

Sometimes when your heart is heavy
Take it to the Lord
Sometimes when you are feeling down
Take it to the Lord
Sometimes when you are lonely
Take it to the Lord
Sometimes when you need a friend
Take it to the Lord

Jesus will take the heavy 
burden of your heart
And heal you
Jesus will bring Joy to you
Put a smile on your face
Jesus will make you feel special
You will be blessed
Jesus will be your best friend
You will never lack someone to talk to

Remember to Take it all to the Lord
He is your guide

Sometimes we may falter
But Jesus is our Redeemer and 
has forgiven us.

Closer to the heart


A journey comes to an end
Reflection on life begins
Under the sun
Under the moon
Nothing seems the same
Stars are different
Life begins

This beginning seems like a dream
A dream long dreamed
Reality sets in
Rings
Wedding bands
Love signified
Forever love
For each other
Hearts entwined
Closer to the heart

If there ever was a time to decide

Under the heavens
There is a place
Do we decide?
Do we keep pace?

It’s now or never
Attitude is high
Never or now
Don't just give a sigh

Pray right now
Or never give in
Let someone show you how
Then victory win

Come to a choice
Feel inside
Heart is a voice
Let it decide

When you say
Will I ever
Just don't stay
Forever is never

When you decide
To let Jesus in
He will abide
From now to forever

God has a thousand ways

Every Valley shall be filled and every mountain and hill shall be brought low, and the crooked shall be made straight, and the rough ways shall be make smooth;
Luke 3:5

God has a thousand ways
Where I can see not one;
When all my means have reached their end
Then His have just begun.

"I Don't Believe In"

 I believe in the sun even when it isn’t shining.  I believe in love even when I am alone.  I believe in God even when He is silent.
 Jewish refugee, World War II, Poland

So when you read the above what does that make you think?
Do you have things you say you don't believe in?
When you don't believe in something does that make that something go away?

I try not to say "I don't believe in". No matter what my belief is the fact remains that "thing" you said you don't believe in is still there.

Take self proclaimed atheists, part of their foundation is in the words "I don't believe in God". Still the fact remains there is a God and He is very real.
When you make the decision to follow what God has for you and you invite Jesus to come into your heart to be your Lord and Saviour, how real is that to you.

So the next time you say "i don't believe in " remember that it wont change anything if you don't believe in it. You may not agree with it, you may not celebrate it. It still remains.

Take Halloween for and example. I don't celebrate it, my kids don't celebrate it, my lovely wife doesn't celebrate it. Does that mean it doesn't exist? Not at all. I just means we don't celebrate that day.

Something to think about. 
Remember that Jesus Loves you and He died for your sins!

God Bless

  And now, brethren, I commend you to God, and to the word of his grace, which is able to build you up, and to give you an inheritance among all them which are sanctified.  

  Acts 20:32
  The King James Version

To worship You
