God’s Living Word

“For the word of God is alive and active. Sharper than any double-edged sword, it penetrates even to dividing soul and spirit, joints and marrow; it judges the thoughts and attitudes of the heart.” Hebrews 4:12

The last few days in particular God’s word has filled my head.

His Word is indeed living.

I’ve watched my sister in law, Connie suffer and the pass into eternity after suffering from the hideous disease of cancer.

And my heart has been filled with HIS incredible peace and love. I heard His words over and over. Bits and pieces of scripture, entire scripture verses…the word of God, so alive and active.

…….Great is Thy Faithfulness….His love endureth forever…what can separate us from the love of God…His strength is perfect…perfect love cast out all fear…He has gone to prepare a place for you…I am the resurrection and the life…death has been swallowed up in victory….for we fix our eyes on what is eternal…even though I walk through the valley of death, I shall fear no evil…to be absent from the body is to be present with the Lord….He is the rock…

His Word Is Living.

 His WORDS kept speaking to me over and over! I helped my great niece clean and dress her grandmother with the aide of a nurse after her passing. GOD’s presence was so real. I could not do that in and of myself…and this granddaughter did so with the most care and love…GOD’s presence.

He is LIFE. Without HIM I am nothing.

 I simply cannot imagine going through any pain without HIM. My life has been full of trials…life. As with many of you of course. And Christ has proven He has never left me. He will never leave…

Deuteronomy 31:6 “Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid or terrified because of them, for the Lord your God goes with you; he will never leave you nor forsake you.”

Read His word….get to know Him and His character, His personality. Allow Him to speak to you. HE wants to minister to you. He loves you.

Festus and Mose

Alright, I have admitted that we are “Gunsmoke” fans. I have confessed that many nights after the depressing news, we play an episode of the series while eating dinner. Yes, we have crossed over into the “Dinner Tray” land of old.

Last night we got so tickled….
I laughed so hard…
I cried.

Festus, Matt Dillon’s Deputy Marshall is always telling “tall tales” of sorts. He aggravates the far out of Doc. But they love each other like brothers. And as usual, Festus was telling one of his stories. Continue reading Festus and Mose →

Can I Have This Dance?

My husband and I love to dance. We have danced since we dated. Of course it was disco then…..and it is disco now when we get a chance to dance! Thankfully, most weddings do include oldies! We actually won contests when we were teens. Our sons may doubt that a bit.

But we even like to dance in the kitchen. A good Pandora station can do wonders for a couple. If anyone saw us they might laugh, my goodness…we laugh at ourselves! But it is so much fun. Such a sweet thing between us.

I had struggled for several years with how much the Father really loved me. How could Jesus Christ love me without condition? I always thought that God only loved me when I obeyed Him. I was completely immersed in legalism. The more I worked, the more He loved me…or so I thought. If I did not do what I “should” He would not love me. Continue reading Can I Have this Dance? →
