Hebrews 11:1 ~ Faith

Hebrews 11:1

Now faith is the assurance 

of things hoped for, 

the conviction of things 

not seen.

Luke 10

23 Then Jesus turned to the disciples and said privately, 

"Blessed are the eyes that see what you see. 

For I tell you 

that many prophets and kings desired to see what you see 

but did not see it, 

and to hear 

what you hear 

but did not hear it."

We all know this has been the roughest set of years many generations have seen. And we could personally count out our reasons.  

I've seen workers at my house mutiny against their longtime employer of 6 years. Creating their own social media sorrow and tools disappearing, as I closed the garage door. Then saw the employer weeping. Because the Southern Border hasn't changed lives to be easier or better. Seen an artist neighbor losing his career and his mind, go violent, plotting little plans, ruining his family and life.  And continue in the same sad set of mind guidelines, no longer really aware of the law and his futility, in front of a town government worker.

Families who act cruelly and do not repent, nor have joy. 1 out of 3 families report a crucial breakdown.

People who don't do their job, their responsibilities to the goodness of mankind and culture. Then sorrow for their own sadness and lack of goodness. Looking miserable. 

Social Media records this response to the sometimes heartbreaking times:

"Hard times create hard men, hard men create soft times, soft times create soft men, soft men create hard times. Luckily and Unfortunately, our fathers, grandfathers, and great-grandfathers created soft times. These softer times have created soft men."

What times are ahead?

The Books of Kings and Chronicles tell us. 

The Bible says there is nothing new under the sun. 

Look with faith. Good mankind, they are pushing to make new goodness emerge. Both on the Republican side and new voices heard from the Democrats. I would wonder... the goodness is from a new merging of Republicans and 1960 and 1970 Democrats, 2016 vocal Democrats. When equality looked less like homelessness and more like responsibility to one another for goodness and hope for a strong future for our children.

Let Goodness Return, in the Love so many have for Jesus Christ.

Look with Faith

Pray over the News

Pray over the weather reports

Romans 8:28 

We know that for those who love God all things work together for good,

 for those who are called 

according to

 His purpose.

Doubts will wriggle in, if we do not firmly grasp the Truth of the Grace of Jesus Christ.

Philippians 3

13 Brothers, I do not consider that I have made it my own. But one thing I do: forgetting what lies behind and straining forward to what lies ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal for the prize of the upward call of God in Christ Jesus. 15 Let those of us who are mature think this way, and if in anything you think otherwise, God will reveal that also to you.

16 Only let us hold true to what we have attained.

My American History Professor told 400 Texas A & M Students a German General gave up hope in the last days of World War II because the American, small, camp he saw had a made in the USA Birthday Cake. The Germans had run out of supplies, a non-working homeland for the no moral troops.  Yet, the birthday day cake explained what was happening.

Consider the working hard and stock market trends. Consider the votes before the National and State Congresses.  The tide is beginning to turn with open communication.

Keep looking to see the glimmer like the Birthday Cake. Faith, Hope and Love, the greatest of these is Love. Making families and futures secure for the upbuilding of the Body of Christ and the results feeding the Nation. We pray this repeats around the entire world, the Fullness of the Lord, His Good Creation.

Abba, Father God,

Our Abba, as we open our hands to You in Prayer. 

We consider by grace we have been saved through faith. 

And this is not our own doing; it is the gift of God.

Help us always to seek You First, Jesus Christ.

In this comfort and Love, help us be able to know

You will love and dwell with those we Love.

Having gifts, let us use them: in proportion to our faith. 

Even the Disciples had fear. 

Please pray for peace in families

 Please pray for peace during this time.

The statistics say 1 in 3 don't speak as parents and children.

 Father God. Peace within the family.

Dwell in us, Father,

Help us to seek You first,

We will finish well in Jesus Christ. 

We thank You for hearing our Prayers, Abba. 

We will ask for each day, each opportunity, each decision, every day 

- Father God who gives generously to all without reproach, 

we will ask for Wisdom and to see Your Willingness 

and it will be given to Your Beloved.

We pray this for our concerns, our lives, our hopes. We pray this over the people we love. The People You have given us. Healing, life, hearing, eyes, provision, opportunities. Hope, Joy, Love. Protection. And for this Nation to love You more. 

And for the Beloved of God - everywhere to have this of You, their Father.

Always, we want to Listen to Jesus.

Healing, balm, refresh, alleviate, remedy, cure,

Establish, 

rebuild, reconcile, regenerate,

Rejuvenate, conciliate,

mend, minister, recondition,

Joy and Peace with Love

Bless this Nation with mercy and tolerance, remembering the historic anger

 and ill-logic following Pandemics. 

The sweep of History shows Pandemics have recovery.

In Jesus Christ, let us put real hope in the revealing of His purpose for us. 

Rejoicing in all life is given through Jesus Christ. Trusting again. 

 Lord, Your mercy upon this land and 

Your people.

acts of violence.

 Pray for peace, please. 

My mother's house had her AC fixed easily

with help from an old friend.

The lawn service wasn't mowing.

For Edward and me,

as we get this work accomplished together

and Good Health.

Recently, Thanks to the Lord

Edward, in his 6th Decade of life

We pray for our own strength, 

Love and ask Jesus to cover this Nation, those who lead this Nation 

and all other nations in this good fight. 

The Light of mankind to shine with Jesus Christ.
