Christ, The Living Redeemer

Job 19:25 says "For I know that my Redeemer liveth, and that He shall stand at the latter day upon the earth."   Hallelujah!  Jesus Christ Lives ~ He arose!  We that know Him, serve a risen, living Saviour, One Who bought us with a price ~ HIMSELF.  He is the precious Redeemer.  He is MY Redeemer.  He will return for His own, resurrecting those that are in the grave, out of the dust, first.  Then, those that are alive, will rise up to meet Him in the air on that appointed day.  He shall take His stand in the last day as Judge of the Universe.  I know that my Redeemer lives!  Is He your Redeemer?   Are you prepared to meet Him?     You can be today ~ Ask Him into your heart.  Then, you, too, can rejoice with Job, that Your Redeemer liveth.  Until We Meet Again...

Feeding the Chickens

Ah, the G-Baby is something.  I love that Baby.  She is the absolute Apple of this adoring Gan-Gan's eye,  as I have stated on many occasions.  Last week, her little Pre-School Class went on a field trip to a farm.  The children were all going to get to feed the animals.  On the night before, her parents were talking to her about the animals and such.  They were talking about how she was going to get to feed the chickens.  My daughter asked G-Baby, "Well, what do the chickens eat?"  G-Baby, looking up at the ceiling, deep in thought about the matter for a moment, said very earnestly and without hesitation, "BEEF"!  That's my Girl!!  Ganny loves that Baby.  She makes me and Chick~Fil~A so very proud.  You go, G-Baby, go feed those chickens!  Until We Meet Again...

CoCo Chanel ~ September 3, 1996 - April 16, 2010

Sad day this is.  My faithful, loyal, precious Pomeranian FurBaby ~ Coco Chanel ~ had to be put down today.  It is a sad day indeed.  Her tiny, dainty presence filled up the entire house and she is already missed terribly.  She kept me good company for the last ten years and four months.   As I have stated before, she came into my life at a very difficult time and did indeed become a "FAITHFUL COMPANION" as only FurBabies can do.  Yes, sad day, but on the bright side, I have Andy.  You've met Andy, my other FurBaby, and he adores me.  Really, he does, which is wonderful!  But, Coco was special and she will always have a special place in my heart for always being there.  I love you, Coco.  You were Momma's Baby.  Until We Meet Again...

Thou Art My Friend and Brother!

Who to turn to when discouraged, downhearted, and dismayed you ask?  None other than the Precious Lord Jesus.  He is a friend that sticketh closer than a brother and is always there for one to lean on if He is one's  personal Saviour.  When we are afraid of what the future might hold, remember WHO holds the future.  Ooo-h, I like that ~ I need to take a few moments to just ponder that very thought.  The ONE Who holds the future.  One only has to ponder on that thought for a few seconds to think of the absolute truth that statement holds for the Christian. The one that has put their complete trust in the Lord Jesus Christ can ponder on this truth.  If I am completely t-r-u-s-t-i-n-g  in the Lord, I have only to look to Him for all comfort.  He holds this very Universe in His hands and can speak the word for anything He wants to take place. He holds me in that very competent Hand and will not drop me or lay me down  and forget where He has placed me.  He keeps watch over me that closely.   He has placed me here to be His servant and to carry out the things that are His will for my life. He will equip me with His grace, love and wisdom to do the task He has asked me to do.   As I live this "Christian life" and try to walk in the Light of His Truth, I learn more everyday that I live, that He cares for me and loves me like no other.  I find myself looking Heavenly-ward more with each passing day. I am learning in the deepest sense that this is truly not my home, but that I am just a-passing thru!  That makes me homesick!!  Homesick for Heaven.  Hallelujah!  No troubles we face, be it national, international or be it personal, surprises or catches The LORD JESUS CHRIST off guard.  He is not surprised by any incident that takes place on the face of the globe.  And certainly not in my ~ His child's ~ life.  He knows the number of every hair on my head and knows when a little sparrow falls.  He certainly cares for and loves me, oh blessed thought.   O, my LORD and Saviour, with all my trust firmly secured in Thee, how can I stay discouraged, downhearted, and dismayed when Thou Art my Friend and  Brother!  Thank Thee, Lord Jesus, for "sticking to me".  Until We Meet Again...  

Hallelujah, What A Saviour!

The Time has come------Jesus is  betrayed by Judas for 30 pieces of silver.  Jesus was seized.  All the council sought to put HIM to death.  The High Priest, the Elders, and all the Council sought false witness against HIM to put HIM to death.  Jesus was bound and led to Pontius Pilate.  Now, the Feast of the governor was at hand and a prisoner was to be released.  The crowd roared, "Release Barabbas, Release Barabbas."  Pilate asked, "What shall I do with Jesus which is called Christ?"   "Crucify HIM, Crucify HIM."  "What evil has this man done?"   The crowd cried louder, "Let HIM be crucified."  Pilate, seeing that he could not prevail and washing his hands before the crowd, released Barabbas to go free.  Jesus, was crucified on the cross and shed HIS blood for mankind.  BUT, the tomb could not hold HIM!  He AROSE and lives VICTORIOUSLY  today in the hearts of men that have accepted HIM as SAVIOUR!
Hallelujah! What a SAVIOR!    Based on Matthew 26:47-27:54 this was originally written for part of  a Kid's Choir Easter program by denise in March, 2005 Until We Meet Again...

Fool's Day

    

       Today is April Fool's Day.  I don't get into the pranks and foolishness of the day, but many people love it and get a thrill out of pulling one over on someone.  I guess maybe that there is no harm in innocent pranks, although, I have seen some references to it being the national day for atheists, of which I want no part. An atheist is one who denies the existence of the Deity ~ One Sovereign Holy Almighty God that is the Creator of all things.  But now the Bible says in Psalm 14:1, "The fool hath said in his heart, there is no God.  They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there in none that doeth good."  The Bible is saying here, the fool, or the one that lacks wisdom, has reasoned within and convinced himself that there is no God.  Men, loving darkness rather than light, are evil and depraved and are capable of disgustingly vile deeds.  There is not a one that possesses an inherent ability to do good, as stated in Romans 3: 10, "As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one."   Let us not be fools, and as the Bible says in James 1:5, "If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, Who giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not, and it shall be given him."  Let us love and thrill to the precious Word of God and lay all foolishness aside.  Until We Meet Again...

My Mortgage HAS Been Paid!

Romans 3:23 "For ALL have sinned and come short of the glory of God."    Thank the Lord that the overwheming debt of my sin has been bought with the Precious Blood of Jesus Christ and that the mortgage has been paid for my HOME in HEAVEN for all ETERNITY. That is something to shout about!!  Until We Meet Again...
