A Home Is A House Full Of Love

We all teach someone every day.   Most important, our teaching should be biblically based:  Biblical teaching needs to be done with prayer.  Prayer is vital. 1 Thessalonians 5:17  Pray without ceasing. Biblical Teaching needs to be done with much studying.  2 Timothy 2:15  Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth . Biblical Teaching needs to be done with application.  Apply what you teach to your own life.         James 1:22-24  But be ye doers of the word, and not hearers only, deceiving your own selves. For if any be a hearer of the word, and not a doer, he is like unto a man beholding his natural face in a glass: For he beholdeth himself, and goeth his way, and straightway forgetteth what manner of man he was. Thought:  “You cannot communicate out of a vacuum; you cannot impart what you do not possess.”

We had such an enjoyable day trip to the mountains last Saturday.  We went to Rufus Morgan Falls, The Blue Ridge Parkway, and Looking Glass Falls.  You can see PICTURES HERE.

A friend that had cancer just passed away a few days ago.  She was young, in her 30’s.  She leaves behind a husband and 7 children.  It all seems so tragic.  Yet, death is something we all need to think about for it will come for all of us one day.  Below is an excerpt of her final testimony that she wrote the month before she died.  I hope you will take time to go to her site and read all of her testimony .  “You will all face what I am facing now. I want for everyone of you to be blessed with the peace and confidence that Christ has given me. I wish that everyone could see during their whole lives what I am seeing so clearly now. God loves us all so completely. His plan has never been to destroy us, but to redeem us and all of His creation perfectly. There is another someone who hates us completely because we are the creation of his Enemy, and he never stops trying to deceive and destroy us as long as we are on this earth. Christ has offered the so...

As I was reading God’s Word this morning I was meditating on this verse: Haggai 1:5  Now therefore thus saith the LORD of hosts; Consider your ways. This is something I need to ponder each day.  Are my ways pleasing to the Lord? Have I committed my ways to Him so that He can direct my paths? Psalms 25:4  Shew me thy ways, O LORD; teach me thy paths.    Psalms 37:5  Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. Have I allowed His ways to be my ways obeying His every command? 2 Samuel 22:22  For I have kept the ways of the LORD, and have not wickedly departed from my God.   1 Kings 8:58  That he may incline our hearts unto him, to walk in all his ways, and to keep his commandments, and his statutes, and his judgments, which he commanded our fathers. Have I behaved myself wisely in all ways? 1 Samuel 18:14  And David behaved himself wisely in all his ways; and the LORD was with him. Do I hu...

I love to laugh.  Recently a friend shared some of these cartoons on facebook so I thought I would add them to my fun stuff. Enjoy!
