Greetings sisters!
Hope you are following hard after our Saviour today.
Because thou hast been my help, therefore in the shadow of thy wings will I rejoice.My soul followeth hard after thee: thy right hand upholdeth me.But those that seek my soul, to destroy it, shall go into the lower parts of the earth.Psalm 63:7-9
Where are our treasures sisters?
Lay not up for yourselves treasures upon earth, where moth and rust doth corrupt, and where thieves break through and steal:But lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust doth corrupt, and where thieves do not break through nor steal:For where your treasure is, there will your heart be also.Matthew 6:19-21
Sadly we see so many placing greater value in things on this earth whether it be money or possession or family or friends or false fellowship. Let it not be once named among us that we have other 'gods' of such things before the One true God!
If ye then be risen with Christ, seek those things which are above, where Christ sitteth on the right hand of God.Set your affection on things above, not on things on the earth.For ye are dead, and your life is hid with Christ in God.When Christ, who is our life, shall appear, then shall ye also appear with him in glory.Colossians 3:1-4
Hold fast sisters...the darkness is great and the way to destruction very broad and many are on it. Let us fight hard on the narrow way through and past all the enemies and distractions that abound that are trying to pull our attention away from the One who only is worthy to be followed. We do not want to perish with the world because we loved it or the things in it. It's all going to go down and we do not want to be caught up with that which God is going to destroy, amen?
Let us cling hard to the Word sisters...it says what it says. We take it, all or nothing. We see the damage and destruction that comes from people taking it so lightly. God's ways are good and when we follow them they work very well and it is for our own protection. We know we are to flee all sin and false associations and not dabble with it which is like playing with fire or something right.
Thank you faithful sisters for sharing scriptures today...
Yes most may mock today or be indifferent to the things of God...but one day every knee shall bow and they will be crying out to the rocks to fall on them. We want to be found in peace with God at that great day of His coming amen sisters?!
I appreciate spending a lot of time with you my sisters (that I can). I take seriously to edify and encourage and comfort you in the Lord. We can press one another on through trying times and help us all focus on the Lord. We rejoice in the Lord, and all He has done and blessed us with, no matter what! We know there will be many trials to deal with in this faith life. But we know the great treasure we have found in the truth and we are not giving it up for anything...but let us keep working out our salvation with fear and trembling.
I had a busy day with a trip into town. Gospel cards went out too as I went about my errands.
Pretty creations and blessings God made!
Hope all your Titus 2 duties are going well sisters! Keep pressing on in them as they glorify the Lord also! Thankfulness and contentment are really important in all that aren't they sisters.
