Thursday... I'm going to keep on singing.


Thursday... I'm going to keep on singing.

We flew out Christmas afternoon to Denver, Colorado to be with Brett, our son and Marissa and Ashlyn and Addison. We had such a good time with them but we set late last night for our time to fly home to Las Vegas. Brett took us a little early while it was starting to rain with snow on the way. We wanted him to get home before it started and it started about an hour before we were to leave.

Now they have a system to take care of the plane for it to fly in that kind of weather. So they took us to a spot and they started spraying this de-icer all over the plane and then they put on a sealer. Now they could have said, just go on but they knew that would be dangerous. So they faithfully took some extra time to make it safe for us to fly. They were faithful in doing what needed to be done to make us safe and they did their job. And we made it home about 30 minutes late but we made it home.

Now being faithful at doing what needs to be done is so important. 

Psalm 89:1-2 (NLT) says, "I will sing of the Lord's unfailing love forever! Young and old will hear of your faithfulness. Your unfailing love will last forever. Your faithfulness is as enduring as the heavens." And that is so true. And I'm going to keep on singing about that truth. 

As I was sitting on the plane as they were doing all of that I had a little anxiety but I was also confident because I knew I could trust them to be faithful at doing what they knew to do and that they wouldn't take a shortcut. And that gave me confidence.

And that is so true in my life. God is unfailing in His love for me and I can trust His faithfulness to do what needs to be done and also that His unfailing love will last forever. So, I am going to keep on singing about the Lord's unfailing love forever! Yes, Yes! #todaysbeginning

Monday... He did it by Himself

Isaiah 44:24b (AMP), "I am the Lord, Maker of all things. Who alone stretches out the heavens, Who spreads out the earth by Myself." Monday... He did it by Himself. Many have a tendency to think very highly of themselves and what they can do. Oh we do have great ability but we are not the source. Yes it is important to have self-confidence but we are limited. The prophet Isaiah in 44:9-10 (NLT) says, "How foolish are those who manufacture idols. These prized objects are really worthless. The people who worship idols don't know this, so they are all put to shame. Who but a fool would make his own god - an idol that cannot help him one bit?" Now later in verse 24 (AMP) he writes, "For the Lord, your Redeemer, and He who formed you from the womb says, 'I am the Lord, Maker of all things, Who alone stretches out the heavens, Who spreads out the earth by Myself.'" I love that. "By Myself." Now we do need confidence but we are foolish to ma...

Wednesday... It didn't just happen.

Psalm 16;10 (NLT), "For you will not leave my soul among the dead or allow your holy one to rot in the grave." Wednesday... It didn't just happen. We are headed into a weekend of deep emotion. One that we really really love was killed and it didn't just happen. David in Psalm 16:10 (NLT) writes of this happening. He says about God, "For you will not leave my soul among the dead or allow your holy one to rot in the grave." We read over in the Gospels at the beginning of the New Testament in the Bible of the life of God's Son who came to earth to be our sacrifice so that our soul would not be left among the dead. Jesus came so that we wouldn't have to be buried at death and just left there. But he also shares that Jesus who was going to be killed as a sacrifice for our sins would not have to rot in a grave. David many generations before foretold this and that is what happened. Now that had to be a God thing. We can guess a lot about our future and we d...

Friday... Yes, we need them. We really do

Psalm 8:3-4 (NLT), "When I look at the night sky and see the work of your fingers - the moon and the stars you set in place - what are mere mortals that you should think about them, human beings that you should care for them?" Friday... Yes, we need them. We really do. No, not the fact that I can go out my front door and look out at night at the marvels of the sky. I can do that and it is amazing and it takes my breath away each time I see it. Yes, that is a fact but the reality of who did that and the wisdom and the faith that I have to believe that and to marvel that the one who did that cares about me makes such a difference in how I live my life. Yes, God really does. That is so wonderful for us to believe. And that is why faith and wisdom are so important. Now whatever belief you have at how that marvel happened must also be believed through faith. And the sad thing to me is that more and more people have been taught that there is no God and therefore he did not have a h...
