Mark 10:18 ~ No one is good except God

 



The Photo is about Russian Data on Covid being falsified.



Jesus has art from around the world




Mark 10:18

And Jesus said to him,"Why do you call me good? 
No one is good except God alone."

Jude 1:8 
Yet in like manner these people also, relying on their dreams, defile the flesh, reject authority, and blaspheme the glorious ones.

Revelation 22:18-19 
I warn everyone who hears the words of the prophecy of this book: if anyone adds to them, God will add to him the plagues described in this book, and if anyone takes away from the words of the book of this prophecy, God will take away his share in the tree of life and in the holy city, which are described in this book.

Galatians 5:16 
But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not gratify the desires of the flesh.

James 4:4  
You adulterous people! Do you not know that friendship with the world is enmity with God? Therefore whoever wishes to be a friend of the world makes himself an enemy of God.



Recently, I had a new family discussion that was very private for private family business, crossing state lines, of an intense matter. Life itself was the intensity of the conversation. And in the discussion, people were very upset. Why. For reasons, we all have lived. This Pandemic causes us to doubt our hopes and doubt each other. And wonder why God loves the world enough to save us from this upheaval. God is a God of Love. And God of encouragement.

Our family discussion lasted about a month. Finally, we arrived at understanding each other and decided the people we love are the people who disappoint us the absolute utmost. The people we want to avoid for causing us pain. And while we can all walk away, we need really to have a forgiving heart to mend what hurts and discover the care. Easy to walk away, easy to lose the meaningful aspect of life and love.




The Analogy of the Essenes is worth saying again. 
They said the Temple was void of the Holy Spirit, and rode out into the sunset to do good works. Without the Essenes, we would not have the thousand year and 1300-year-old Scriptures showing us how seriously Scriptures are meticulously copied for millenniums. And yet, the Essenes missed the arrival of Jesus Christ and didn't see Jesus offered to the Lord at His Birth. They missed Simeon and Anna. They missed seeing the Son of God in the Temple.

This is the work of meaningful life, having forgiveness.




We don't direct our dreams. 
Cleaning out my mother's house was hard for reasons we don't even discuss with many people. As she passed on, from Dementia, or Alzheimer's, there were loose strings with her family. And now, when I dream of my mother each time, she is in the Hospital. And she assures me she is getting better. The first Hospital room was very dark. And this one was filled with light. I am comforted with the idea of being with Jesus makes all things new. And the Hospital is actually God's Hospitality. The second dream was far better.










We have to understand the depth of our blessings. 
We have to look like a Noah for signs of God's Blessing. If we aren't actively seeking, we miss the Work of God in our lives. Sometimes we have to think for over 30 minutes for what God could be doing. And the arrival of the thought is like, or perhaps is, The Peace of God. And without diligent mental searching, we would have passed by without understanding.






Looking at the Burdens of this week.


Lamentations 3 

English Standard Version





3 I am the man who has seen affliction
    under the rod of his wrath;
2 he has driven and brought me
    into darkness without any light;
3 surely against me he turns his hand
    again and again the whole day long.

4 He has made my flesh and my skin waste away;
    he has broken my bones;
5 he has besieged and enveloped me
    with bitterness and tribulation;
6 he has made me dwell in darkness
    like the dead of long ago.

7 He has walled me about so that I cannot escape;
    he has made my chains heavy;
8 though I call and cry for help,
    he shuts out my prayer;
9 he has blocked my ways with blocks of stones;
    he has made my paths crooked.

10 He is a bear lying in wait for me,
    a lion in hiding;
11 he turned aside my steps and tore me to pieces;
    he has made me desolate;
12 he bent his bow and set me
    as a target for his arrow.

13 He drove into my kidneys
    the arrows of his quiver;
14 I have become the laughingstock of all peoples,
    the object of their taunts all day long.
15 He has filled me with bitterness;
    he has sated me with wormwood.

16 He has made my teeth grind on gravel,
    and made me cower in ashes;
17 my soul is bereft of peace;
    I have forgotten what happiness is;
18 so I say, “My endurance has perished;
    so has my hope from the Lord.”

19 Remember my affliction and my wanderings,
    the wormwood and the gall!
20 My soul continually remembers it
    and is bowed down within me.
21 But this I call to mind,
    and therefore I have hope:

22 The steadfast love of the Lord never ceases;
    his mercies never come to an end;
 they are new every morning;
    great is your faithfulness.

 “The Lord is my portion,” says my soul,
    “therefore I will hope in him.”

The Lord is good to those who wait for him,
    to the soul who seeks him.
26 It is good that one should wait quietly
    for the salvation of the Lord.
27 It is good for a man that he bear
    the yoke in his youth.

28 Let him sit alone in silence
    when it is laid on him;
29 let him put his mouth in the dust—
    there may yet be hope;
30 let him give his cheek to the one who strikes,
    and let him be filled with insults.

31 For the Lord will not
    cast off forever,
32 but, though he cause grief, he will have compassion
    according to the abundance of his steadfast love;
33 for he does not afflict from his heart
    or grieve the children of men.

34 To crush underfoot
    all the prisoners of the earth,
35 to deny a man justice
    in the presence of the Most High,
36 to subvert a man in his lawsuit,
    the Lord does not approve.


Miraculously, the elderly man survived

37 Who has spoken and it came to pass,
    unless the Lord has commanded it?
38 Is it not from the mouth of the Most High
    that good and bad come?
39 Why should a living man complain,
    a man, about the punishment of his sins?

40 Let us test and examine our ways,
    and return to the Lord!
41 Let us lift up our hearts and hands
    to God in heaven:
42 “We have transgressed and rebelled,
    and you have not forgiven.

43 “You have wrapped yourself with anger and pursued us,
    killing without pity;
44 you have wrapped yourself with a cloud
    so that no prayer can pass through.
45 You have made us scum and garbage
    among the peoples.

46 “All our enemies
    open their mouths against us;
47 panic and pitfall have come upon us,
    devastation and destruction;
48 my eyes flow with rivers of tears
    because of the destruction of the daughter of my people.

49 “My eyes will flow without ceasing,
    without respite,
50 until the Lord from heaven
    looks down and sees;
51 my eyes cause me grief
    at the fate of all the daughters of my city.

52 “I have been hunted like a bird
    by those who were my enemies without cause;
53 they flung me alive into the pit
    and cast stones on me;
54 water closed over my head;
    I said, ‘I am lost.’

55 “I called on your name, O Lord,
    from the depths of the pit;
56 you heard my plea, ‘Do not close
    your ear to my cry for help!’
57 You came near when I called on you;
    you said, ‘Do not fear!’

58 “You have taken up my cause, O Lord;
    you have redeemed my life.
59 You have seen the wrong done to me, O Lord;
    judge my cause.
60 You have seen all their vengeance,
    all their plots against me.

61 “You have heard their taunts, O Lord,
    all their plots against me.
62 The lips and thoughts of my assailants
    are against me all the day long.
63 Behold their sitting and their rising;
    I am the object of their taunts.

64 “You will repay them, O Lord,
    according to the work of their hands.
65 You will give them dullness of heart;
    your curse will be on them.
66 You will pursue them in anger and destroy them
    from under your heavens, O Lord.”




We have to see


Ukraine's praying


Our praying



to see our Blessings


The Pandemic isolated us
and 
brought us together



Generations together





Paris did not forget Easter of 2019, Saint Eustache held Paris closely.





Our USA Easter was quiet
and then
 our peaceful Easter Began.


Philadelphia
Brotherly Love











What we didn't see
was the computer time
the phone time
the report time
the deep analysis
the absolute dedication










The Medical People
put
into telling each other
all over the world,
what was happening
to the people
with Covid.

The Medical Community
was making History
to provide
every piece of data
sharing every resource.

Medical Peace.
Medical Plight.










The UK wanted to find out
why human behavior drastically changes with stress.
And the BBC set out to put an article
saying
why
people
are freaking out
and especially on airplanes.





Today, we have the planet engaging in birth pains of a Historic Pandemic.

People want to see one another have the opportunity for a better life.

Not to have authority rule and create serfs.

For all of us to have compassion and dignity.

To live in peace and freedom.



We have enough shared medical data
to 
understand

Russia is in a Covid epidemic.
And Putin, instead of going under for the people not having
all the medications they need.

Is solving his problem in aggression.

And with the knowledge of his plight,
we are given more understanding,
but we are not entirely engaged in
fixing
the situation.

But the people of the planet
want to know Ukraine is safe.

And in this cross roads,
we have the Blessing,
the Prayer
and the situation.

More understanding
for better prayer, would
be the solid ground.








Abba, Father,

We do not know all You know.
We do not have the omnipotence for a complete prayer.

We can't surround every person
or every issue
to bring the healing we know Jesus does.

You are the Light of Heaven.
Jesus, You are the Light of Nations.
Jesus Christ,
Only Son of the Most High God,
You are the Light of mankind.

We have a heart for the difficulties
facing
our own lives,
the lives of those we love,
This Nation,
and Ukraine 
and the plight of the Russians.

And in the hearts of mankind
You have delighted in,
we ask Jesus Christ
to be our Blessing,
Teacher,
Healer,
Lord of us all.

God of Love.
God of Encouragement.

We Thank You
for the Blessings
You give us daily.

And ask for You
to dwell in us
and provide
Grace and Mercy
for our trespasses.

To heal us,
the Heal our Loved Ones,
to Heal the Nation,
To Bless Ukraine and Russians
with Peace.
Love.
Joy.
Jesus.

Amen in Your Son,
the Highest Name of Jesus,
Amen.





God reminds us
Blessing us with prayers for more Heaven on earth,
His Good Will be done.


To You, our Father, be the Glory
Our God is an Awesome God! Amen
and Alleluia
in Jesus Christ and His Glory!





Matthew 13:31,32

Jesus put before them another parable: “The Kingdom of Heaven 
is like a mustard seed that a man planted in his field.

 Although it is the smallest of all seeds, 
yet it grows into the largest of garden plants and becomes a tree, 
so that the birds of the air come 
and 
nest in its branches.”






♔ 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

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. <><
