Luke 12:48b-49 ~ Entrusted †




When we hold our child for the first time.  All is right with the world and God is in His Heaven. We walk about hoping for our child and imagining what the future could hold. We hope the doors open to them in Spirit and education.  Marriage, family, career. God unfolding His many and various blessings upon them.

Today was a sad day for this Nation. We watched many college campuses interrupted with chanting death to a small Nation. One nation that woke up to find their families killed as they slept in their homes. Grandmothers paraded in blood and violence, as if this was something to hold up as a goal. Children kidnapped and shown to be in danger and in violence.

Today was a sad day for this Nation. We watched many college campuses interrupted. Interrupted horribly. This is a day the Nation will see these college decline even more in any enrollment.

Learning should open doors of Love, conversation, hope and Joy. This was horrible. A Tragedy. When we limit the joy in education, we fall. It was a weekend when a College Valedictorian was asked not to speak because the topic would be the annihilation of a Nation.  And those who stopped her knew, they understood, she had limited the opportunities of others, in this Nation, for years and years. Lives changed, and not for the better.


History teaches us. We learn how other nations have effectively treated violence and demand for blood soaked violence. If left to be, it will hurt many.  Search History for what is effective to end the lust for blood. Effectively. France has stemmed violence, in recent History. Peace is important.

Our college enrollments ... before today, were down to the rates seen almost ten years ago. The interruption of the Pandemic and the gulf of ideas. Are damaging education. The decision of the Nation's Leaders to fund war and un fund colleges, leaving a huge wake of the society melting pots seen in Universities.  A Nation should want to Empower their Children with Education and not shame them.

This is a sad day. Parents sit at home, see the news, and see the bloodlust. We hurt ourselves.  We hurt our children. We increase class warfare. We decrease the beauty of Education and the power to uplift, ignite and bring Love and Joy with Peace.






Luke 12:48b-49




Everyone to whom much was given, 
of him much will be required, 
and from him to whom they entrusted much, 
they will demand the more.

I came to cast fire on the earth, 

and would that it were already kindled!



The Church will soon be Celebrating,
Pentecost is coming

We should recognize our Fire.


Isaiah 40:6-7 

King James Version 

The voice said, Cry. And he said, What shall I cry? All flesh is grass, and all the goodliness thereof is as the flower of the field: the grass withereth, the flower fadeth: because the Spirit of the LORD bloweth upon it: surely the people is grass.


What is the Nation?

2/3rds attend Church
80% Pray 
Pray believing Jesus Christ is the Savior of God, His Son.
Jesus is Alive and Hears our Prayers.

This is our Fire.


Psalm 45:4

In Your splendor 
ride forth in victory on behalf of truth and humility and justice; 
may your right hand show your awesome deeds.


Psalm 57:1

Have mercy on me, O God, have mercy, 
for in You my soul takes refuge. 
In the shadow of Your wings I will take shelter 
until the danger has passed.


Psalm 105:4
Seek out the LORD and His strength; 
seek His Face always.


Isaiah 1:17

Learn to do right; seek justice and correct the oppressor. 
Defend the fatherless and plead the case of the widow.


1 Peter 5:7 

Casting all your anxieties on Him, 
because He cares for you.


Philippians 4:13 

I can do all things through Him 
Who strengthens me.


Galatians 6:2

Bear one another's burdens, 
and so fulfill the law of Christ.


Hebrews 4:16

Let us then with confidence draw near to The Throne of grace, 
that we may receive mercy 
and find grace to help in time of need.


Galatians 6:9

9 And let us not grow weary of doing good, 
for in due season we will reap, 
if we do not give up.

Micah 6:8


He has showed you, O man, 
what is good. And what does the LORD require of you? 
To act justly 
and 
to love mercy 
and 
to walk humbly with your God.


John 8:12

"I am the light of the world:
 he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness,
 but shall have the Light of Life."

What will the answer, the solution, the hope be?
How will we entrust our children 
to school
or to Universities?

A late friend of ours, who lived a very long and beloved life, her husband went to the Korean War. He was not about to have his children off at college when he had seen the Vietnam War veterans denigrated. It was his stand. And he made sure if they wanted his financial help, they had his parental help. They graduated from the University of Houston and Rice University while living at home. Did this impede their adult lives? Quite the contrary, they had a business idea, the 3 adult children and have made a career that will sustain them. A secondary career that became a sibling career of very good fortune. Their friendships forged during the years of college.  The added years of parenting. Who required a small job during the college years while living at home. A strong work ethic.

This isn't yesterday's news. My brother is a Trial Attorney, Clerked for a Federal Judge in El Paso. Defended the Dallas Police for 5 years in Federal Court every day. Worked in the El Paso City Attorney's Office and went very profitably into his own Trial Attorney Career. The man is a Brahma Bull of Law and Order.  He has moved to Chicago to allow his children to be in the best Universities in Chicago.... while living at home.

Another friend of Church, her grandchildren and children all live around her hen family. Gathered together. They have attended Junior Colleges to avoid taking on debt, while living at home. And at the last possible moment, went to University of Houston, graduated without debt and the grandchildren have moved into careers, which immediately afforded them the opportunity to live in family adults. The grandchildren gathererd in groups to afford very fine houses with huge bedrooms, renting out to their good friends. Their mortgages paid by grateful tenants and their portion is small, and the renters delighted as well.

Entrusted to be protected, have a hope and future. And to allow a strong framework where Love is the goal.

 And setting Love first, All These Things are Added Unto The People of God. 

Let us Bless the Lord. Yay, Lord God. Amen.

Entrusted to be awake, diligent, in all age groups of our children and seasons to those entrusted to us by the Lord. The Dinner Table Conversation that is gracious and finds out the lay of the land, school yard or classroom. And doing like my brother and my sisters in the Lord -making goodness happen by determination, deliberation and diligence. Delightful and Bright as Daylight.

Prayer, Praying and Prayerful! The Opportunity to bring more Heaven to earth in The Lord's Good Will.  These are the prayers Jesus tells us He wants. 


John 8:12

"I am the light of the world:
 he that follows Me shall not walk in darkness,
 but shall have the Light of Life."






Abba, Father,

Father, we hope for Your grace and favor in Your sight, 
Bless us when we carry and proclaim 
the Light of Jesus in all mankind, 
we are pleasing to You.

Help our direction
for ALL
to be of God

Joy
and Faith.

Build us again, in You.

We believe You are the Living God. 
We believe, no good thing do You withhold from those who walk uprightly. 
We believe daily in the Glory of Your Word 
and Will.

We will long for Your counsel and Your Will, 
to have those we love - praise Your Glory!

We believe, Your Word of Truth,

We are sealed with the Promises of the Holy Spirit.

With Your Help, we will believe, 
daily keeping Your Light in us.

With Your Help, 
we will rejoice in the Light of Life.

With Your Help, 
we will look to the Windows of Heaven in our life 
and see a blessing overflow 
believing all things work together 
for those who Love You.

With Your Help for ourselves and the ones we love, 
our prayer concerns. 
We will act justly
 and to love mercy
 and to walk humbly with You, our God.

You are our guarantee. 

For ourselves and the ones we Love. 
In the Highest Name of Jesus, we are covered.

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.

The Scriptures are Father God's letter to you. He wanted you to know more, to know He loves you.

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. <><
