Psalm 111:2-10 ~ Great are the works of the Lord!



Psalm 111:2-10



Great are the works of the Lord!

Studied by all who delight in them!





Full of splendor and majesty is His work,
and 
His righteousness endures forever.



4 He has caused his wondrous works to be remembered;
the Lord is gracious and merciful.




5 He provides food for those who fear him;

He remembers his covenant forever.


He has shown his people the power of his works,
in giving them the inheritance of the nations.









7 The works of His hands are faithful and just;
all His precepts are trustworthy






 they are established forever and ever,
to be performed with faithfulness and uprightness.









9 He sent redemption to His people;
He has commanded His covenant forever.
Holy and awesome is His name!






10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!




10 The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom;
all those who practice it have a good understanding.
His praise endures forever!



Luke 7:31-35
31 "To what then shall I compare the men of this generation, and what are they like? 32 They are like children sitting in the market place and calling to one another, `We piped to you, and you did not dance; we wailed, and you did not weep.' 33

For John the Baptist has come eating no bread and drinking no wine; and you say, `He has a demon.' 34 The Son of man has come eating and drinking; and you say, `Behold, a glutton and a drunkard, a friend of tax collectors and sinners!' 35 Yet wisdom is justified by all her children."


The Song and Dances of the Prophets by St. Ambrose of Milan, 339-397 A.D



The Hebrews sang a song when the soles of their feet grew moist at the touch of the bedewing flame, and while all burned within and without, the harmless fire caressed them alone and did not scorch (Daniel 3:19-25). 

Habakkuk also learned to assuage universal grief with a song and prophesied that the sweet passion of the Lord would happen for the faithful (Habakkuk 3:13).

The prophets sang songs with spiritual measures, resounding with prophecies of universal salvation. The prophets wept, softening the hard hearts of the Jews with sorrowful lamentations" (Isaiah 46:12)









What is Salvation? How does that occur? 

Jesus was telling about seeds. He never did finish the Seed Parable to say if the land was tilled with the seeds to improve in the seasons. However the Psalms like 107 hint changes reveal hearts. Lord, Let Me Be One Of the Number! 

And you know, when you know that you know, you are a child of God Himself. Peace.


There is a good reason for Jesus not finishing the story.
Salvation just isn't to be taken lightly.

Consider the stages of Augustine's conversion. Not just from sin to grace but the steps he took within philosophy. Rejecting the Gospel as meaningless and the Old Testament as a God of ill humor. And becoming part of cult to a change in philosophy again. And again. Eventually meeting ill circumstance and Ambrose, who would encourage him to discussions of the Gospel. Augustine's mother prayed for him and the results were years down the path.

Jesus is the One
He is filled with Immediately.
And Eternally.
Jesus is the One
Calling us to Pray with Hope
His Joy called for Finding with Certainty
more Heaven upon earth.

Renaissance
The era people looked to see God
and found Him
in the Signs of Life.



Nehemiah 8:10 

for the joy of the Lord 
is your strength.

Matthew 25:38a-40 ~ you did to Me


 

Last year, the waters of Venice were clear.

Matthew 25:38a-40




‘Lord, when did we see you hungry and feed you, or thirsty and give you drink? 38
And when did we see you a stranger and welcome you, or naked and clothe you? 
39 And when did we see you sick or in prison and visit you?’ 

40 And the King will answer them, ‘Truly, I say to you, as you did
to one of the least of these my brothers, 
you did it to me.’


Last Year, the Major Cities Worldwide were clear.


Denver had the Rocky Mountains in Clear View well into the fall.


Southern California was so clear, Cali was shining.

This year, we face some clear facts:

The Covid Delta Variant is highly contagious. 

95% of those Hospitalized with Covid are unvaccinated.

1 in 100,000 people hospitalized with Delta Variant with with with a vaccination will die.

Save Children.
Children's Pediatric Hospitals are seeing an ever-increasing rise, exponentially, in Children with Covid Delta Variant. The Pediatric Hospitals are worried. Worried. All around the USA, Pediatric Hospitals are being stock piled.

Inspire the world. Save your family. Save your friend's families.


Pediatric Hospitals:




Clearly. There is a great opportunity. We can buy the World a Coke. 

The Data has been examined worldwide. 
Never before have so many nations reached out to one another to share information medically. A year more of information.

We put our Trust in Jesus to save lives.

The Nation was moved like during the World Wars to find medical help. The White House was our daily briefing. The USA shared medical information and ventilators. France has flown vast quantities of Oxygen to India.

We can be vaccinated. Adults vaccinated slow the spread. And share our love Jesus puts in us for one another. Opportunity. We have an opportunity. The People we care about to be vaccinated. Speak Life.

Why? You are preventing the spread of Covid Delta Variant:


Life. To Children, to susceptible minorities, to your grandparents and your friend's children and grandparents.  You are saving your friends. Your co-worker, your co-worker's family. Stop the spread
be vaccinated. Ask the people you care for to be vaccinated.

Speak Life!

Worldwide Speak Life! We Pray Earnestly.







May the words of my mouth 
and the thoughts of my heart
be pleasing
and acceptable to You, Lord God.
Jesus, Son of God, Savior,
The God of Encouragement
God of Love
Amen

Matthew 6:7-15 ~ Your Father knows what you need before you ask Him.

 



Cedar of Lebanon






Matthew 6:7-15



“And when you pray, do not heap up empty phrases as the Gentiles do, for they think that they will be heard for their many words. 8 Do not be like them, for your Father knows what you need before you ask him. 

9 Pray then like this:

“Our Father in heaven,
hallowed [holy] be your name.
10 Your kingdom come,
your will be done,
on earth as it is in heaven.
11 Give us this day our daily bread,
12 and forgive us our debts,
as we also have forgiven our debtors.
13 And lead us not into temptation,
but deliver us from evil.

14 For if you forgive others their trespasses, your heavenly Father will also forgive you, 15 but if you do not forgive others their trespasses, neither will your Father forgive your trespasses.

Some manuscripts add from John's 1st Chapter in Revelation:

For yours is the kingdom and the power and the glory, forever. Amen








I pray this Lord's Prayer a lot. 

Edward asked me in 1994 to become Catholic with him. I was very, very surprised after taking the class to become a Catholic, in 1994, after my first confession - we were assigned to sit in Church, be reflectively meditative, on the cross, and say the Lord's Prayer as the realignment in forgiveness. Yet, these are the words of Jesus. Holy Words. Words given to us as part of the gift of forgiveness.

I say these words even when I'm angry and unforgiving. Rick Warren and, his brother-in-law, Tom Holladay discussed forgiveness, "In 40 Days of Love." Forgiveness gives up the right to hurt someone. Forgiveness gives up the right to slander someone.

The Topics
Session One: Love Matters Most
Session Two: Love is Patient, Love is Kind
Session Three: Love Speaks the Truth
Session Four: Love is Forgiving
Session Five: Love is not Selfish
Session Six: The Habits of a Loving Heart




We can provoke one another to unforgiveness. This behavior can spiral down to sadism. Relationships can become toxic. We are not in God's grace to accept the unacceptable. There is a very sound reason Jesus spoke these words.


Matthew 18:21-23

Then Peter came to Jesus and asked, “Lord, how many times shall I forgive my brother or sister who sins against me? Up to seven times?”

22 Jesus answered, “I tell you, not seven times, but seventy-seven times. (Or seventy times seven)

23 “Therefore, the kingdom of heaven is like a king who wanted to settle accounts with his servants.

God could have said forgive endlessly. He did not. 

Genesis 4:24
If Cain is avenged seven times, then Lamech seventy-seven times."

We could quibble over 77 or 490, missing the Spirit.

Rick Warren spoke in the DVD about forgiveness hurting the deepest in divorce. He said forgiveness doesn't require a reconciliation. Forgiveness requires giving up the right to be grief-stricken and reconstruct the hurt. Forgiveness is the releasing of judgmental anger. This does not require forgetting, just letting go of the desire to hurt and be hurt. Rick Warren refers to wisdom as learning - the actions of the person are like the fruit identifying the tree. We learn what type of person we deal with. Forgiveness does not require the loss of wisdom.

Proverbs 16:20-24
20 Whoever gives thought to the word will discover good,
and blessed is he who trusts in the Lord.

21 The wise of heart is called discerning,
and sweetness of speech increases persuasiveness.

22 Good sense is a fountain of life to him who has it,
but the instruction of fools is folly.

23 The heart of the wise makes his speech judicious
and adds persuasiveness to his lips.

24 Gracious words are like a honeycomb,
sweetness to the soul and health to the body

Add to the joys of forgiveness - this:
Picking up on discovering good, blessed by trusting the LORD. Being discerning.

Proverbs 13:12
Hope deferred makes the heart sick, but a longing fulfilled is a tree of life.


We should give ourselves credit, like the Father running to his prodigal son - when we forgive with our mouths and brain, and allowing for the forgiveness fulling our hearts to be - the tree of life.  Certainly, we are given grace to give complete forgiveness all at once. Sometimes the completion of forgiveness is a process.


The evil one would say - you just aren't forgiving, you don't have peace, you are a fake, they robably don't deserve forgiveness. Instead, lean on HIM and say, "Father, please. Help that forgiveness be the tree of life from You."




 Matthew 13:32
It is the smallest of all seeds, but when it has grown it is larger than all the garden plants and becomes a tree, so that the birds of the air come 
and make nests in its branches




Tule tree, Mexico - the tree is really that large.



Abba, Father God,

In all seasons of life,
Dwell in us, with Your Love and Grace
help us to live all circumstances graciously.

To Adapt to cultivating Joy
and throwing off harsh words, harsh circumstances.
To be Strengthened in Joy
with the Joy Jesus found in Life.

Numbers 6 asks You to be Gracious to us
and lift Your Face and Smile upon us to
be Blessed with Jesus dwelling in us.

Help us to Seek You First.
And Joy will be found.

Bless those we Love to have Your Favor
Jesus helping them feel Loved and Strong
in all of life.

We pray this for our Churches.
And for our Schools.
We pray this for our employments
and for your dreams and desires to
be in Your Way and Path.

Bless the families like Harby and her children
learning a new path. Be with Your Children.

We ask for Your Blessing upon our Nation
and Your Good Creation
as the news changes and provides new opportunities for prayer.

We rest all our concerns
in Your Capable Heart and Hands.
In Jesus Amen. 





Jesus the God of ALL.
Jesus, we pray Life and healing
Joy and Love in Harby and their children.

Jesus, God of Encouragement.
Jesus, Hope and Future.
Jesus the Lord
saves the world
Amen.

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. <><
