Psalm 58 ~ Surely GOD




Our Backyard in 2016. See the Magnolia.

 Psalm 58



A Miktam of David.

58 Do you indeed decree what is right, you gods?
Do you judge the children of man uprightly?
2No, in your hearts you devise wrongs;
your hands deal out violence on earth.

3 The wicked are estranged from the womb;
they go astray from birth, speaking lies.
4 They have venom like the venom of a serpent,
like the deaf adder that stops its ear,

5 so that it does not hear the voice of charmers
or of the cunning enchanter.

6 O God, break the teeth in their mouths;
tear out the fangs of the young lions, O Lord!

7 Let them vanish like water that runs away;
when he aims his arrows, let them be blunted.

8 Let them be like the snail that dissolves into slime,
like the stillborn child who never sees the sun.

9 Sooner than your pots can feel the heat of thorns,
whether green or ablaze, may he sweep them away!


10 The righteous will rejoice when he sees the vengeance;
he will bathe his feet in the blood of the wicked.


11 Mankind will say, “Surely there is a reward for the righteous;
surely there is a God who judges on earth.”







This was our Magnolia tree in 2001, about the time we moved in our home. I love my gardening.




This is a 'baby' Green Heron. If you feed them shrimp when their mother leaves the runt of the litter, the unhook their jaw and it hangs to the feet, creating awesome terror for your hand. 2018. Ebert brought back many nests filled since 2012.  The Magnolia is in the left corner.


This is the Magnolia in 2018. Amazing Golden sunset. The Magnolia is HUGE.










It's interesting to see photos belonging to other people - the view changes. 











In 2008 of September, I started to receive calls asking me to take the family well away from South Texas and Houston because Hurricane Ike was across the entire Gulf of Mexico. I couldn't. I was pregnant with our 3rd child and this couldn't happen to travel. Giving birth fleeing a Hurricane is generally not a good idea.

Dee and Cindy arrived to pray for our house, baby Isabelle and all the circumstances to be safe. It was earnest and we sat for an hour overlooking my backyard and prayed. We all wept.

We had the hurricane hit. And our street had a tornado that was seen in the first and second houses on our block. Jumped up over 3 more houses and came down in our backyard. One giant oak was spun at the top and lost 20 feet of the tree twisted in a circle and landed East. The Huge Oak requiring a crane from Colorado to remove it fell straight South.

Clean up was extreme. And all of this landed outside our property. The tree top was almost flung into the pond. Dee had no tree damage and Cindy lost an outside staircase she said was ok.



That was Eleven Years Ago.

This May, Dee lost her giant Oak tree and it fell mightily. Right across her driveway. Missing - her porch, her cars and her house. And Dee and her family!

On Tuesday, we returned from vacation and there was a very lovely breeze. Our puppies watched the tall trees and saw a huge wind. The puppies were not hard to convince to come inside. We opened the windows to enjoy the cool breeze. Suddenly we were riveted on the window and the wind. It was Utterly Astonishing. I ran from my armchair and ran for the first time from windows to the other side of the Kitchen. The Wind was amazing and Tremendous. I thought something is going to go. The top of the house? I looked away in fright. But something Huge flashed in my peripheral vision. A tree. It was the 25" and 25 year Magnolia.

We waited for the rain to stop. The Magnolia had been placed on the ground by God's hand. The fence was spared. The other trees were spared. The flowers were intact. It looks like the sprinkler is intact. A plastic flower pot held the large trunk. And the hill helped it to rest missing the swimming pool. The patio held the tree.




The Magnolia had never liked having wet roots by the pond and hill. It had lost branches and worked mightily to put out new branches growing vertically to make up the difference. I'd just been on the second floor looking at the top of the tree and wondering if the tree was ok. Edward had wanted it cut down to see the pond.

The tree was removed in about 30 minutes. I saved all the seed pods I could and have found they are turning red as they should. I'm hoping to have more Magnolias.

And now we have a flower bed which will fully appreciate the sun. The pool will be warmer year round. The view is better of the pond and the Cypress Tree. Dee and I discussed a loving prayer has carried us 11 years. Prayed once. God has blessed us to have this prayer. This one time prayer has been our Blessing from Father God.

1 Corinthians 13

Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast

 it is not arrogant 5 or rude.

 It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful;

6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth.

 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.

8 Love never ends.








We got together in June and prayed for our friend Elliott. Elliott at age 27, while working with us, he dreamed he would have cancer at age 42. He does. He was helping people in the floods around Beaumont for Ike and was in biohazard water to do his insurance job and to help the elderly affected by the massive flood waters. He's 42 now. With serious blood cancer and 3 children and his wife he is so wonderful with.

We all cried for Elliott. Elliott has done Youth Ministry and played the Guitar for Church. I have cried on and off for two months. At first it didn't seem Elliott would live. And now he is making long car rides to the doctor and has strength left over. We are so hopeful that with this amount of love and the support he is receiving from Church, Elliott will be carried to being completely well by Jesus. And our Willing Father God.





Abba,

We Thank You for Your Blessing of Jesus. Today. In the Nature of Jesus, we are given Your Exact Nature.


Finding You Alive and Loving. Discovering again how 'for' us You are. God of Love.



Bless us to see You more clearly. Love You more dearly.

Let Your Glory sweep our Nation Trusting in You.


Let Your Majesty put all of Creation bringing more Heaven on earth. Bless the nations living in Your Brightness. Uphold, Bless, Keep Safe, Strengthen Encourage and Build up the Kingdom of Heaven in Your Beloved children all over Your Good Creation. More Jesus.


We are praying for Elliott to find his life is Blessed to be healed by Jesus and cancer is gone forever.

Let the Light of Your Love far outshine the darkness, to see the Victory of Your Son Today.


In Jesus, the Lord, God's Only Son, Alive, Working, Loving, Guiding us to Live.


Jesus God, Amen.









♔ Lord Jesus Saves!

About scripture-for-today.blogspot.com/

We believe Jesus Christ is the Son of God. He has saved all who call upon His name and rely on Him for His Grace. The Scriptures are living & active and are for understanding the Lord Almighty. Biblical readings are chosen from the Ecumenical Christian Church and the Nicene Council, 325 A.D., approved Apocrypha. People remember not just from reading, but by sight and orally- an image has been added as well as audio readings. God tends to link the passages together with fascinates - this blogger, Anne-Laurel Gardere

A simple blog, scripture-for-today.blogspot

This blog is pretty simple, but for a reason. This blog isn't about agenda or me, it is for the joy and love to found by reading the Scriptures. Ultimately, it is you and the Lord.

About Me

My photo
Email registry at bottom.! “All Scripture is inspired by God” (2 Timothy 3:16). Men “moved by the Holy Spirit spoke from God” (2 Peter 1:21). The Holy Spirit carried men along, moving and guiding them as they wrote in their own words what God wanted them to say. The Bible is unique; comprised of 80 separate books, & written over a period of thousands of years by more than 40 writers with one Author, spanning the centuries, different states of peace & war & different situations in life. The Bible answers the question: of who is God, who is man & what can their relationship can be. Although the Bible was written on perishable material and copied by hand for many centuries, its accuracy is not in doubt, proven by Dead Sea Scrolls and papyrus from 2,000 years. The Bible has survived persecution & criticism to be read with great interest in each generation. The Bible gives witness to the greatness of the Creator. A loving Father concerned for all of his creation. With each verse of the bible witnessing to God is love and the multitude & vastness of His attributes. The Bible was written for you. <><
