Lord Help Us...

There are far too many things to even write about today...Ebola, ISIS, our borders, political correctness, watching our country's constitutional foundation being destroyed, debt, the list goes on and on and on. But here's the deal, there will always be bad news to report, there will always be disease, there will always be a "bad guy"...our current administration is full of lies and deceit, corruption and all about self. What ever happend to "we the people?" Whatever happened to elected officials serving the people, in the best interest of the people, protecting the people, it's not about sides, this is not a football game. It's not about Democrats beating Republicans, or Republicans beating Democrats...we have taken our eyes off the country and it's people. It's now all about personal agenda, special interest groups, and greed. Unless this country turns to God and humbles itself things will get worse before it gets better. I am praying for our nation, for our politicians (all of them) to get back to doing what's right, to choose good, to do what's best for all of us, white, black, red, or purple. There is hope...many have forgotten that. II Chronicles 7: 14 "If my people who are called by my name will humble themselves, and pray and seek my face, and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from Heaven, and will forgive their sin and heal their land."

Good News for Christians!

In today's environment and chaos is so easy to get discouraged as Christians. Sometimes it feels like we are so few...but fear not! Christianity is the world's largest religion, with approximately 2.2 billion adherents, known as Christians. Most Christians believe that Jesus is the Son of God, fully divine and fully human, and the saviour of humanity whose coming was prophesied in the Old Testament. Consequently, Christians refer to Jesus as Christ or the Messiah. (wikipedia)

Thought for the Day...

"The problems we face today are there because the people WHO work for a living are outnumbered by those WHO vote for a living."

On that final day...

1.... God won't ask what kind of car you drove. He'll ask how many people you drove who didn't have transportation.. 2.... God won't ask the square footage of your house, He'll ask how many people you welcomed into your home. 3.... God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet, He'll ask how many you helped to clothe. 4... God won't ask what your highest salary was. He'll ask if you compromised your character to obtain it. 5.... God won't ask what your job title was. He'll ask if you performed your job to the best of your ability. 6... God won't ask how many friends you had. He'll ask how many people to whom you were a friend. 7.... God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived, He'll ask how you treated your neighbors. 8.... God won't ask about the color of your skin, He'll ask about the content of your character. 9.... God won't ask why it took you so long to seek Salvation. He'll lovingly take you to your mansion in heaven, and not to the gates of Hell. 10.... God won't have to ask how many people you shared this with, He already knows your decision.

Hope For Our Country-Pray

EARTH'S FINAL MOMENTS

Funny, I actually first blogged this April 1, 2012. Nothing has changed. I guess we can throw in Syria and ISIS.--- I have been reading John Hagee's Earth's Final Moments. As disturbing as it is...it also brings me peace and security knowing God's Word is true. With all the turmoil in the world, simply turning on the news can be one of the hardest things to do these days. Obamacare, nuclear war, Korea, Iran, Afghanistan, the Middle East, Egypt, terrorists, killings, riots, you know what I mean, the list goes on and on. These are truly turbulent times! But here's the deal, the bible tell us all of this! As Christians why are we surprised when we hear this news? I know one reason, amidst all of this turmoil, HE gives us HOPE. He tells us what is to come, but also says no one will know the exact time of His return. HE will come like a thief in the night. And while we are here on earth, we are to love, work, live our lives as Christ would, but know that HE will return! So, how do we get through all these scary times? Faith. Keep your faith. Keep your focus on HIM. And know all things to come are in HIS hands. The last line of this book (I recommend you all read it) says "Rejoice and be exceedingly glad-the best is yet to be." Amen! :) ps-guess I'll have to find this book and read it again.

It's Fall!

I am so excited for fall! Leaves, pumpkins, pumpkin bread, pumpkin flavored coffee, trick or treat! Football...everything fall! I am burning a pumpkin candle as I write this...even if it's 90 today in the greater Phoenix area! Pumpkin muffins this weekend! Happy sweater weather!
