Romans 1:20 ~ clearly perceived

Connect Thessalonia Ossica David, Greece a House Church from the 3rd to 5th Century surviving many, many terrible Greek wars - astonishing mosaic ceiling - astonishing, astonishing survival - and this prime example of a House Church from The Book of Acts.

To Sacre Coeur - sitting on top of Montmartre.

Then Connect them to a RARE Michelangelo's recent Vatican Art Exhibit. The second exhibit of it's kind.

Let's start with dreaded Romans 1

10 in my prayers at all times, asking that now at last by God’s will I may succeed in coming to you. 11 For I long to see you so that I may impart to you some spiritual gift to strengthen you, 12 that is, that you and I may be mutually encouraged by each other’s faith.



We tend to rush past the art of the past. And believe the Churches that took generations and generations of artists - recognized and not recognized in carvings and woven clothes, woodworkers - to create sit as museums and are neglected. The Past pushed past.

John 5:21
For as the Father raises the dead and gives them life, so also the Son gives life to whom he will.

We, as the Body of Christ, want to know the Body is nourished all over the world. We want to hear Good News of the Body of Jesus Christ.

This Church has a front yard and the porch is used routinely for the parishioners to have children's birthday parties. The porch and yard are in constant in motion. An Act's House Church is alive and well. It's 'only' a miracle of God this building has survived wars and wars and wars and roof changes. Foundation repair. The strife all Churches are shown to have in the New Testament. And this is vibrant and alive with Jesus Christ.






How would that connect to Sacre Couer? We just all gathered to watch fireworks to Celebrate our Nation's Birth. Sacre Coeur is alive on Sundays (June 16th) and every day.

So many Churches have learned what we knew as children

"Here is the Church"
the steeple
Open the Doors - People.

So many Churches have lunches to bring a sack lunch and here the musicians create. Art + Beauty + God+ Sunset = Life.
Abundant Life.

Romans 1:20

For his invisible attributes, namely, his eternal power and divine nature, have been clearly perceived, ever since the creation of the world, in the things that have been made

Saint Dennis of Sacre Coeur reminds us of Scripture as well.

1 Corinthians 12

31 But earnestly desire the higher gifts.

Which lands us right before 1 Corinthians 13 reminding us of Love.



We have to Cherish what is given to us in our Christian Arts and Histories or they are taken from us. It's important for all of us to have a voice and a desire and a prayer and Will to keep the gifts given to us - cherished.

The Vatican rarely releases Michelangelo Art. The Exhibit recently given on loan from the Vatican said it is the Second Time ever to the USA.

See the art and the captions from the exhibit.

Michelangelo Buonarroti, Roman Soldiers, cartoon fragment for part of The Crucifixion of Saint Peter in the Pauline Chapel, Vatican, c. 1546, charcoal with black chalk on approximately 16 sheets of Royal Bolognese paper, outlines pricked for transfer, Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte, Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe, Naples.

This painting is a Crucifixion. These are the Soldiers. This is not a Cartoon. The Miriam Webster Dictionary defines Cartoon
as a sarcastic reference to exaggeration and drama.

I seriously OBJECT.




Attributed to Michelangelo Buonarroti and workshop (over initial sketch by the master with later restorations), Cartoon of Venus Kissed by Cupid, c. 1535, charcoal on 19 sheets of paper, with outlines reworked for transfer of the design onto a working surface, mounted on canvas, Museo e Real Bosco di Capodimonte, Gabinetto Disegni e Stampe, Naples.

It's interesting the exhibit was condensed from the first exhibit to the second exhibit. Of all the Michelangelo - we are given Crucifixion to Venus and told they relate. As Cartoons.



Museums house important documentation and knowledge and are surrounded with Political Leanings of Religions Intolerance. This should be adjusted to be represented by the beliefs of the People. Do not go gently into that good night.


Not Seen Today, Not Exhibited:




http://www.britishmuseum.org/research/collection_online/collection_object_details.aspx?


An Amazing Document of 1200 B.C. clear to read. "Mose." Seti II Pharaoh of Egypt.

Important papyri date from the reign of Seti II. The first of these is the Tale of Two Brothers, a fabulous story of troubles within a family on the death of their father, which may have been intended in part as political satire on the situation of the two half-brothers.


Evidence that Amenmesse was a direct contemporary with Seti II's rule—rather than Seti II's immediate predecessor —includes the fact that Seti II's royal KV15[5] tomb at Thebes was deliberately vandalized with many of Seti's royal names being carefully erased here during his reign.  The erasures were subsequently repaired by Seti II's agents. This suggests that Seti II's reign at Thebes was interrupted by the rise of a rival.

The problems of a Bronze Snake put on a Stick by Mose.



The People of God have a voice. Amazing Works of Historical Significance should be displayed. And if the Museum is unwilling to do so - another Museum should rise up. When The Treasures of the Russian Czars came to the USA - people traveled all over to see them. Just as the did for King Tut. We traveled to Chicago for this. I knew people traveled to Jackson, MS for the Czars. The Exhibits are now smaller in the last two decades. We need these displays to be amazing. And well represented. The Dead Sea Scrolls paired with the Vatican and the Display was marvelous about 18 years ago.


Jeremiah believed Moses and the Writings of Scripture. In times of trouble, history is revisited and rewritten as if new eyes can interpret better the events of the past.

We need to support the Treasures of Artists who worked for generations to present what we see around the world today. Not hunker down in modern emphasis. We need what the saints of God have provided for Millenniums.


The People of God are supporting Movies in the Cinemas. We need our voice to carry to Museums and Exhibits. We want to see the Museums be pleased to Exhibit each other in grand displays. The museum workers want to see the Public support the greatness and the eagerness to see the Exhibits.

The workers of Museums want the Museums to be as alive as the Churches. Working together - we can bring about more of the astonishing centuries of Christian Witness in Art. Wood. Stone. Vestments. Tapestries. Incredible Artists. Amazing Style. Crosses. Relics. Communal Dishes. Glass. I was confirmed in Erie, PA and all of the windows were astonishingly done by Tiffany.


No one doubts the Christian Church ended the medieval horrors of living crouched behind city walls. Churches boldly built outside the walls. This is why St. Paul's Basilica in Rome is St. Paul's Outside the Walls. Churches ran hospitals. Their records on the plagues would be interesting and intact. Churches broke apart and reformed to bring the Word of God out of the select hands of a few to the many - ending the Latin clamp down. This would be interesting to read the papers of those willing to give their lives to bring us the Bible in our hand today. The monasteries were the Agriculture Colleges of their day. They taught how to grow crops, bees, ale - Europe and the U.K. were saved from starvation by the valid works of the Church. All of this is recorded in art and written record.


We have History to Celebrate. It's not all about the damn "Crusades." Unearth the Victories and Celebrate. The dedication of artisans who did this work for Generations. Celebrate the building of the Cathedrals. Actually a reminder of the Vast Holiness of a Capable Father God.

In celebrating Church Victories of the Past - we hold up standards for tired knees to have new Enthusiasm.


When these Tapestries are examined - the examiners are so trained they will be able to know by color of thread, by the garments portrayed - what area of country and the time the Tapestry was made. Lace is known by city. Even back to the 1200's. We can know about the unknown artists and the communities making the tapestries and the histories of the people.

Finally, brothers and sisters, whatever is true, whatever is noble, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is admirable — if anything is excellent or praiseworthy — think about such things and the God of peace will be with you”

In the Awesome Communion of the Saints Available Today.

Amen in Jesus Christ.

1 Peter 1:23

We have been born again,

not of perishable seed,

but of imperishable,

through the living

and enduring

Word of God.

The Nebuchadnezzar II Gates were known by Daniel and Ezekiel. We could see these in our Museums - these kings of different cultures - sharing Word in the Bible - were some of the most Humanitarian in all the World Histories. 

The Hittite Empire was fable for almost 2000 years - no more - their library is the Library of the Bible.  Representations of Amazing History could be seen in Museums world wide. 

Our History Amazingly Follows Jesus and His Church.

We could have representations and photos just of Gates of the World.

We have so many Gates to Discover.

Psalm 130 ~ redeem Israel

Psalm 130 

Out of the depths I cry to you, O Lord!
2 O Lord, hear my voice!
Let your ears be attentive
to the voice of my pleas for mercy!

3 If you, O Lord, should mark iniquities,
O Lord, who could stand?

4 But with you 
there is forgiveness,
that you may be feared.

5 I wait for the Lord, my soul waits,
and in his word I hope;

6 my soul waits for the Lord
more than watchmen for the morning,
more than watchmen for the morning.

7 O Israel, hope in the Lord!

For with the Lord there is steadfast love,
and with him is plentiful redemption.

8 And he will redeem Israel
from all his iniquities. 

If you want a BLESSING - where would you start?

Prayer.

God of All. 

All Ages. 

All Cultures.

All Peoples.

Our God Alpha and Omega
The Spirit Of The LORD, The Spirit Of Wisdom And Understanding, The Spirit Of Counsel and Strength, The Spirit Of Knowledge

Ancient of Days. 

God of All Nations. 

God who Saves the world 

in 

Jesus Christ

 Heaven has no boundaries 

existing
Because 
You Spoke
Your Word
in
Holiness 

1 Thessalonians 5:16-18

Rejoice always

Pray without ceasing, 

18 give thanks in all circumstances; 

for this is the will of God 

in Christ Jesus 

for you.

Once you begin to pray what do you Thank Him For the MOST?

Forgiveness.

Now, pray - "Jesus please bless, name- of- person- you- love "Jesus, please!"

Next - Expectation -

Isaiah 30:18

Therefore the LORD
waits to be gracious to you, 
and therefore he exalts himself to show mercy to you. 
For the LORD is a God of justice; blessed are all those who wait for him.

Repeat with joy!!!

Isaiah 30:18

Yet the LORD longs to be gracious to you; 

therefore 

He will rise up 

to show you compassion. 

For the LORD is a God of justice.

 Blessed are all who wait for him!

1 Timothy 6:12

Fight the good fight of the faith. 
Take hold of the eternal life 
to which you were called 
when you made your good confession 
in the presence 
of many witnesses.

We shall not flag or fail. We shall go on to the end
We shall fight in France, we shall fight on the seas and oceans, we shall fight
with growing confidence and growing strength in the air

We shall defend our Island,
whatever the cost may be, we shall fight on the beaches,
we shall fight on the landing grounds, we shall fight in the fields and in the streets,
we shall fight in the hills;

We shall never surrender
and even if, which I do not for a moment believe, this Island or a large part of it were subjugated and starving, then our Empire beyond the seas, armed and guarded by the British Fleet,
would carry on the struggle,

Until, in God’s good time, the New World, with all its power and might,
steps forth
to the rescue
and the liberation of the old.

Genesis 1:29 Behold, I have given you every 

Many Centuries were to pass before the God that spake in the Burning Bush was to manifest Himself in a new revelation, which nevertheless was the oldest of all the inspirations of the Hebrew people—as the God not only of Israel, but of all mankind who wished to serve Him; a God not only of justice, but of mercy; a God not only of self-preservation and survival, but of pity, self-sacrifice, and ineffable love.

~ Winston Churchill

I sing a song of the saints of God,
patient and brave and true,
who toiled and fought and lived and died
for the Lord they loved and knew.

They lived not only in ages past;
there are hundreds of thousands still;
the world is bright with the joyous saints
who love to do Jesus’ will.

You can meet them in school, or in lanes, or at sea,
in church, or in trains, or in shops, or at tea;
for the saints of God are just folk like me,
and I mean to be one too.

This is art. This is worship. This is sacrifice. This is witness. This is the labor of mankind with gifts from the Loving Father.  Music is more than sound. This is art. This is worship. This is sacrifice. This is witness. This is the labor of mankind with gifts from the Loving Father. Created by many, many, many witnesses. This is the Communion of the Saints. Michelangelo became crippled working with marble and the Sistine Chapel. Bach became increasingly blind towards the end of his life while Beethoven began to lose his hearing when we was 26 and became completely deaf in the ensuing decade. And like Hebrews 11 - some of the artists were saved by their art for more and greater purpose.

Hebrews 12:1
Therefore, since we are surrounded by such a great cloud of witnesses, let us throw off everything that hinders and the sin that so easily entangles. And let us run with perseverance the race marked out for us

Heaven will include Nebuchadnezzar repentant. Perhaps Alexander the Great bowing to the Priest of God and seeking to die in Nebuchadnezzar's palace. We remember the amazing gifts of God for the Centuries. God of All Cultures. God of All Ages. God of All Wisdom.

Abba, our Father, Ancient of Days, Filled with Love,

With Your Help we will Fight the good fight of the faith.

With Jesus inside and the Holy Spirit surrounding, we will take hold of this eternal life today.

Because Jesus saves us from wrath, we are called, when we make your good confession
- of Jesus as God Almighty, my savior -
in the presence of many witnesses.

We know we have fought the Good Fight of Faith in the daily lists of obligation and joy.

We know Our LORD longs to be gracious to you

And Because Our Redeemer Lives, we know
Our Holy and Loving Heavenly Father will rise up
to show you compassion.
To give His Mercy

For the LORD is a God of justice.

Blessed are all who wait for him!

Jesus Christ for us,
Jesus Christ for those we Love,
Jesus Christ for our people He has given us,
Jesus Christ for all Nations Trusting in Him,
Jesus Christ for all the people calling upon His Name.
Your Blessings Lord God we pray.
Amen.

Luke 15:11-32 ~ is found

The Sermon starts at 40. The singing is too good to miss. "Reckless Love" pulled my soul up to Worship Jesus.

Mark tells this great story about the parental Vulcan neck pinch. Know it. Having done Youth Ministry work for 10 years, I comprehend.

I'd add on the day I was about 15 years old and went to Parochial School and never connected the pedal to the metal of "Yahweh" and was asked to do the Reading for the small service. I read "YahOO" Loudly. If you can't make it - fake it. The Priest told me I was his favorite Reader of all times. He even wept with a smile after he laughed. I really, really, really enjoyed my "Yahweh YahOO" story and genuinely basked in the memory of being the favorite Reader. Until. The movie "Frequency" with Dennis Quaid came out. God is so Good. We really need Wisdom. And Yahoo. Yahweh is good all the time. Heavenly Father, when You told Jesus' Brother James he could always ask and receive Wisdom - favor us Lord God. Amen in Jesus. God is Yahoo!!!.



There is one reason Sunday is for Worship. Oxygen. For the Soul. God is that Good. God Himself Feeds us. On so many levels.
God gives us the first day of the whole week. God is that Good.

Luke 15:11-32

Jesus continued: “There was a man who had two sons. 12 The younger one said to his father, ‘Father, give me my share of the estate.’ So he divided his property between them.

13 “Not long after that, the younger son got together all he had, set off for a distant country and there squandered his wealth in wild living. 14 After he had spent everything, there was a severe famine in that whole country, and he began to be in need. 15 So he went and hired himself out to a citizen of that country, who sent him to his fields to feed pigs. 16 He longed to fill his stomach with the pods that the pigs were eating, but no one gave him anything.

17 “When he came to his senses, he said, ‘How many of my father’s hired servants have food to spare, and here I am starving to death! 18 I will set out and go back to my father and say to him: Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. 19 I am no longer worthy to be called your son; make me like one of your hired servants.’ 20 So he got up and went to his father.

“But while he was still a long way off, his father saw him and was filled with compassion for him; he ran to his son, threw his arms around him and kissed him.

21 “The son said to him, ‘Father, I have sinned against heaven and against you. I am no longer worthy to be called your son.’

22 “But the father said to his servants, ‘Quick! Bring the best robe and put it on him. Put a ring on his finger and sandals on his feet. 23 Bring the fattened calf and kill it. Let’s have a feast and celebrate. 24 For this son of mine was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’ So they began to celebrate.

25 “Meanwhile, the older son was in the field. When he came near the house, he heard music and dancing. 26 So he called one of the servants and asked him what was going on. 27 ‘Your brother has come,’ he replied, ‘and your father has killed the fattened calf because he has him back safe and sound.’

28 “The older brother became angry and refused to go in. So his father went out and pleaded with him. 29 But he answered his father, ‘Look! All these years I’ve been slaving for you and never disobeyed your orders. Yet you never gave me even a young goat so I could celebrate with my friends. 30 But when this son of yours who has squandered your property with prostitutes comes home, you kill the fattened calf for him!’

31 “‘My son,’ the father said, ‘you are always with me, and everything I have is yours. 32 But we had to celebrate and be glad, because this brother of yours was dead and is alive again; he was lost and is found.’”



My back and I entered His Worship today about verse 28. So self-righteous snap would envy that crisP. And profoundly not being the Gracious Grace of God Himself. God of Love. God of Mercy.

In the Sports World, the younger brother is Basketball, but the older brother is profoundly Baseball and so tired of the dribble.

Unable to find the Joy in Life. Tired of not seeing the crisP Roman Roads, not used with Proficiency. The Path is CLEAR. Shouting 'Clear' so often - it starts to sound Medical.




To tell the Truth - we all so very, very, very much need the Graciousness of God.In the Ongoing Party of Life. The Older Brother gets some attention for looking like he knows the Path. But the Path is the Graciousness of God.



Oh, the overwhelming, never-ending, reckless love of God
Oh, it chases me down, fights 'til I'm found, leaves the ninety-nine?


What happened to the Older Brother?
Don't you want to know?


He is included and not forgotten. Leaves the 99 is true.

John 1:44
Andrew and Peter were from the same city as Philip, which was Bethsaida"

Jesus makes sure. All Jesus had to say for the millenniums was Andrew and Peter. Jesus would have saved an incredible amount of ink - millenniums of ink - not to print Philip had a path and a life. Technically, it makes sense to edit Philip - out.
We could have just called him 8,9,10 of the Disciples. We didn't need to know.

Acts 8
34 And the eunuch said to Philip, “About whom, I ask you, does the prophet say this, about himself or about someone else?” 35 Then Philip opened his mouth, and beginning with this Scripture he told him the good news about Jesus. 36 And as they were going along the road they came to some water, and the eunuch said, “See, here is water! What prevents me from being baptized?” 38 And he commanded the chariot to stop, and they both went down into the water, Philip and the eunuch, and he baptized him. 39 And when they came up out of the water, the Spirit of the Lord carried Philip away, and the eunuch saw him no more, and went on his way rejoicing. 

40 But Philip found himself at Azotus, and as he passed through he preached the gospel to all the towns until he came to Caesarea.

Philip is the unforgotten Brother. God has not left.



What else would we know about The Older Brother?

Today we might nickname someone 'Junior' or use Junior as a Suffix. II. The Roman World had a name for someone the father and mother looked at and sighed with joy and contentment "Gaius." Gaius means my first born 'son'. Gaius is probably reserved for a perfect baby. Joyful child bearing. Standard-bearing. My First Born Son.


What happened to 'that' son?

If you add up the Gaius in the Scriptures you get a pretty good picture. Certainly, probably, could be different men and still a good analogy of God leaving the 99 - for whom?

God multiplied the fishes - surely God would multiply His Graces.



Scripture lists the Older Son - known by the name Gaius -


Acts 19:29
So the city was filled with the confusion, and they rushed together into the theater, dragging with them Gaius and Aristarchus, Macedonians who were Paul's companions in travel.

The Older Brother understands. Travels with Paul.

Acts 20:4
Sopater the Berean, son of Pyrrhus, accompanied him; and of the Thessalonians, Aristarchus and Secundus; and Gaius of Derbe, and Timothy; and the Asians, Tychicus and Trophimus.

Still going with the Truth.

Romans 16:23
Gaius, who is host to me and to the whole church, greets you. Erastus, the city treasurer, and our brother Quartus, greet you.

We rejoice in the Truth.

1 Corinthians 1:14
I thank God that I baptized none of you except Crispus and Gaius,

3 John 1:1
The elder to the beloved Gaius, whom I love in truth.


And when we find God's Grace multiplies in us - we can read 3 John 1 with all the Graciousness God would give us.



2 Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. 3 For I rejoiced greatly when the brothers[a] came and testified to your truth, as indeed you are walking in the truth. 4 I have no greater joy than to hear that my children are walking in the truth.

5 Beloved, it is a faithful thing you do in all your efforts for these brothers, strangers as they are, 6 who testified to your love before the church. You will do well to send them on their journey in a manner worthy of God. 7 For they have gone out for the sake of the name, accepting nothing from the Gentiles. 8 Therefore we ought to support people like these, that we may be fellow workers for the truth.

9 I have written something to the church, but Diotrephes, who likes to put himself first, does not acknowledge our authority. 10 So if I come, I will bring up what he is doing, talking wicked nonsense against us. And not content with that, he refuses to welcome the brothers, and also stops those who want to and puts them out of the church.

11 Beloved, do not imitate evil but imitate good. Whoever does good is from God; whoever does evil has not seen God. 12 Demetrius has received a good testimony from everyone, and from the truth itself. We also add our testimony, and you know that our testimony is true.

13 I had much to write to you, but I would rather not write with pen and ink. 14 I hope to see you soon, and we will talk face to face.

15 Peace be to you. The friends greet you. Greet the friends, each by name.



May the God of Peace and protection fill us with His Holy Spirit.

And in His Grace give us the Blessing of letting God be God and to have the pleasure in the joy of others. Seeing all the blessings of life surround and uplift us all.

 In Jesus. Amen.

for the Grandmother who raised him.

Luke 8

Jesus raised the widow of Nain's son to arise.

God of Encouragement
God of Love

1 Timothy 2:8
Therefore I want the men everywhere to pray, lifting up holy hands

1 Corinthians 16:13
Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong

The Lord is not for hunker down and get by.

Isaiah 35:1-10

The wilderness and the dry land shall be glad; the desert shall rejoice
and blossom like the crocus;
it shall blossom abundantly and rejoice with joy and singing.
The glory of Lebanon shall be given to it, the majesty of Carmel and Sharon.

They shall see the glory of the Lord, the majesty of our God.
Strengthen the weak hands, and make firm the feeble knees.
Say to those who have an anxious heart, “Be strong; fear not!
Behold, your God will come with vengeance,
with the recompense of God. He will come and save you.”

Then the eyes of the blind shall be opened, and the ears of the deaf unstopped

Ezekiel 17:22-24

Thus says the Lord God: “I myself will take a sprig from the lofty top of the cedar and will set it out. I will break off from the topmost of its young twigs a tender one, and I myself will plant it on a high and lofty mountain. On the mountain height of Israel will I plant it, that it may bear branches and produce fruit and become a noble cedar.

And under it will dwell every kind of bird; in the shade of its branches birds of every sort will nest. And all the trees of the field shall know that I am the Lord; I bring low the high tree, and make high the low tree, dry up the green tree, and make the dry tree flourish. I am the Lord; I have spoken, and I will do it.”

Zechariah 9:16-17

On that day the Lord their God will save them, as the flock of his people; for like the jewels of a crown they shall shine on his land. For how great is his goodness, and how great his beauty! Grain shall make the young men flourish, and new wine the young women.



We are the Beloved of God. New Covenant. God tells us several times in the opening of the New Testament He is the Light of the world. Light in all of mankind.

Hebrews 1

11 Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen. 2 For by it the people of old received their commendation. 3 By faith we understand that the universe was created by the word of God, so that what is seen was not made out of things that are visible.


Light of the world

Ezekiel 31:6
All the birds of the sky nested in its boughs, all the animals of the wild gave birth under its branches; all the great nations lived in its shade

Luke 13

18 Then Jesus asked, “What is the kingdom of God like? To what can I compare it? 19 It is like a mustard seed that a man tossed into his garden. It grew and became a tree, and the birds of the air nested in its branches.”

Hebrews 1

1 Long ago, at many times and in many ways, God spoke to our fathers by the prophets, 2 but in these last days he has spoken to us by his Son, whom he appointed the heir of all things, through whom also he created the world. 3 He is the radiance of the glory of God and the exact imprint of his nature, and he upholds the universe by the word of his power. After making purification for sins, he sat down at the right hand of the Majesty on high, 4 having become as much superior to angels as the name he has inherited is more excellent than theirs.

5 For to which of the angels did God ever say,

“You are my Son,
today I have begotten you”?

Or again,

“I will be to him a father,
and he shall be to me a son”?

6 And again,
when he brings the firstborn into the world,
he says,

“Let all God's angels worship him.”

Abba, Our Holy, Holy Father,

Psalm 24:7
Lift up your heads, O gates, And be lifted up, O ancient doors, That the King of glory may come in!


Our Father, God of All, wants us to arise. In expectation. In Love. In Hope. In our words. In our deeds. In our encouragement. In the encouragement of others.

Father God has called Jesus to ascend to Him. We would want to do no less.

Psalm 3:3
You, O LORD, are a shield about me, My glory, and the One who lifts my head.

Psalm 123:1,2
To you lift I up my eyes, O you that dwell in the heavens

Psalm 34:5
Those who look to him are radiant, and their faces shall never be ashamed.


Our God calms the wind and the sea. For this we look to our Loving Father.

To speak to us in our cares.
To Love and fill our loved ones with His Goodness.

To Bless our Nation to Trust in Him every day.

To Encourage the people God has given us.

To fulfill His Prayer for more Heaven on earth.

To do His Will every day.

And pray all of the Holy Spirit all over our lives.

In Jesus. Amen.
