Tuesday... And that is what I want to do.


Tuesday... And that is what I want to do.

Last week I mentioned that I had tested positive for Covid. Well, yesterday I tested negative. And as my son, Brett said yesterday, "I'm sure you are thrilled to have your freedom back." And that is so very true. 

Now the first line in today's Psalm is what I want to do today. Psalm 104:1 (NLT) says, "Let all that I am praise the Lord." I have no doubt that he has had a hand in freeing me in so many areas of my life and for sure from this prison of Covid. Do you have some area in your life where you feel shackled and you found that with God in your life that if and when you came to him and asked him to that he would free you? And as you think about what he has done in so many areas of your life do you also want to stop and praise him? So "Let all that I am praise the Lord."

Maybe you still feel shacked. Margaret tested positive a few days after me and she is still positive but she should test negative real soon. Two years ago when we both had Covid, Margaret had to go to the hospital. I was sick at home by myself and I was so concerned that Margaret wasn't going to come home. So when she tested positive this time I had some deep emotion and I had a very deep emfatic time of prayer. But this time was different. It wasn't as bad and we were home together, taking care of each other she will test negative real soon. I'm already praising the Lord for freeing Margaret from her Covid. 

Aagin,  "Let all that I am praise the Lord." So, again, has God freed you from some addiction, from financial or relational problems, or from confessed sins? Maybe it's also your health. Now when we got the results of our Covid tests we found that there were so many other solutions to help free us that we didn't have before. And do you know where they came from.?They came from God. Yes, they came from family and friends, people who cared for us but God used them to get his message to us and it made all of the difference. And whatever you are going through God has answers out there. "Let all that I am praise the Lord."

So if you need help then reach out. God wants to free you. Let people know that you need help. Do something about it. God has a way to free you. Do you know that the people who really helped us where people who had had Covid before and so now we can let others who have it know what to do. But you must reach out. 

So is that what you want to do? So let's do it together. "Let all that I am praise the Lord." Let's do it. Yes, yes #todaysbeginning

Tuesday... It is so worth it. It really is!

Tuesday... It is so worth it. It really is! Look at this, Proverbs 5:21-23 (CEV) says, "The Lord sees everything, and he watches us closely. Sinners are trapped and caught by their own evil deeds. They get lost and die because of their foolishness and lack of self-control." That is true of so many. Now look at this, Luke 15:1-7 says, "Tax collectors and sinners were all crowding around to listen to Jesus. So the Pharisees and the teachers of the Law of Moses started grumbling, 'This man is friendly with sinners. He even eats with them.' Then Jesus told them this story: If any of you has 100 sheep, and one of them gets lost, what will you do? Won't you leave the 99 in the field and go look for the lost sheep until you find it? And when you find it, you will put it on your shoulder and carry it home. Then you will call in your friends and neighbors and say, 'Let's celebrate! I've found my lost sheep.' Jesus said, 'In the same way there is mo

Tuesday... Let's be smart.

Tuesday... Let's be smart. Proverbs 12:16a (CEV) says, "Losing your temper is foolish." It really is. And it is so hard to take it back. That is not smart. There are always consequence when we lose our temper and they are usually not good. Think of the last time you lost your temper at home, at your kids, at your spouse, at your pets. at your life, at where you live, at where you work. There are always repercussions and they are not good.  The New Living Translation says, "A fool is quick-tempered." The Message says, "Fools have short fuses and explode all too quickly." The Amplified Bible says, "The [arrogant] fool's anger is quickly known [because he lacks self-control and common sense]." It just is not a good thing. is it? But then the rest of this verse, this proverb (CEV) says, "ignoring an insult is smart." It really is. I have striven in dealing with people to give them a benefit of doubt. They didn't mean that, they

Friday... But, can be such a beautiful word.

Friday... But, can be such a beautiful word. It really can be life changing. Look at what Paul writes in his letter to the Ephesians. In 2:1-3 (NLT) he says, "Once you were dead because of your many sins. You used to live in sin, just like the rest of the world, obeying the devil - the commander of the powers in the unseen world. He is the spirit at work in the hearts of those who refuse to obey God. All of us used to live that way, following the passionate desires and inclinations of our sinful nature. By our very nature we were subject to God's anger, just like everyone else." There it is, there it is. That is the way we are living or have lived. Dead is a definite word of finality. At least the devil thought so and maybe you do too. And then verses 4-5 starts by saying, "But", that beautiful life changing word of opportunity even though we are dead. Yes, we are subject to God's anger, "But God is so rich in mercy, and he loved us so much, that even t
