I will remember you…

“Can a woman forget her nursing child, And not have compassion on the son of her womb? Surely they may forget, Yet I will not forget you. Isaiah 49:15
It is amazing to think that God will not forget me. Little ole insignificant me. In this large world encompassed inside an enormous universe God knows and [...]

God answers prayer
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
I have felt many times that perhaps God just is not going to answer my prayer. I wonder how many times He wants me to keep asking? Surely God is tiring of hearing my plea for an answered prayer.
Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou [...]

God never said it would be easy…
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
There was a point in my life when I would cringe when I heard the following exchange:
Person 1:
Life is tough, can’t believe how hard things are.
Person 2:
God never said it would be easy…
I thought I was reading the wrong Bible. I recall verse after verse that promised prosperity, blessings, and joy. God, I would cry [...]

The comfort of a soft pillow
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
The other day I wrote about finding that peace like a river that can only come from God. It’s not the peace you get from the world or the peace you get from accomplishment. God can also provide you comfort.
God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. Psalm 46:1
It’s hard to [...]

I’ve got peace like a river
I’ve got peace like a river
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul
I’ve got peace like a river
I’ve got peace like a river
I’ve got peace like a river in my soul
What is a peaceful river? I have seen many rivers that looked far from peaceful. One step into this [...]

Take up arms and capture it
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
Have you ever wondered who is in control of your life? Is it you? How much confidence do you have in the idea that you control it? As Christians it is still pretty easy to let the world control our thoughts.
Casting down imaginations, and every high thing that exalteth itself against the knowledge of God, [...]

As far as the east is from the west
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them that fear him. As far as the east is from the west, so far hath he removed our transgressions from us. Psalm 103:11-12
How great is the mercy of God? I don’t think man has yet to figure a way [...]

Suffering today is glory tomorrow
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
In the current situation in the world, God has a verse that is just perfect found right in midst of the New Testament.
For I reckon that the sufferings of this present time are not worthy to be compared with the glory which shall be revealed in us. Romans 8:18
You know this is a pretty bad [...]

But now thus saith the LORD that created thee, O Jacob, and he that formed thee, O Israel, Fear not: for I have redeemed thee, I have called thee by thy name; thou art mine. Isaiah 43:1
FEAR NOT! God has redeemed us, what was once lost is now found. What was once hopeless is now [...]

The tongue greater than the heart?
Filed Under Scripture | Leave a Comment
I was thinking today how sometimes it’s very easy to see a so called wicked person and instantly think we are better than them because of our heart seems so much better.
The tongue of the just is as choice silver: the heart of the wicked is little worth. Proverbs 10:20
It’s amazing to think that the [...]
