Judaism’s 10 Best Ideas, Arthur Green

While visiting the library a few days ago I noticed a very small book being displayed, JUDAISM’S 10 BEST IDEAS”, and I checked it out.

Idea #1 was about joy and I enjoyed thinking about the concept and truth the author, Arthur Green, wrote about but it’s idea #2 that I’m still thinking about this morning, Creation in GOD’s image. I know the scripture “Love your neighbor as yourself” (Lev.19:18)…

Today is a great day to rejoice

“Glory in his holy name; let the hearts of those who seek the Lord rejoice!” ‭‭1 Chronicles‬ ‭16:10‬ ‭ESV‬‬

Today is a great day to start rejoicing. Not because I’ve done anything grand, not because anything outstanding by human standards are happening but because GOD is wonderful and that gives me so much to rejoice about.

Today I am committing to treating myself better. I am committing myself to…

the tongue

Today has been a good day. Lots of opportunities for learning. Mostly learning about the tongue. I have as much to learn about this as my children do. We can injure each other when our hearts have been hurt. We can joke with each other sarcastically and wound each other. We can be way too quick with our tongues. Proverbs 18:21 The tongue has the power of life and death, and those who love it will…

Praise the Lord, all you servants of the Lord who minister by night in the house of the Lord. Lift up your hands in the sanctuary and praise the Lord. May the Lord bless you from Zion, He who is the Maker of heaven and earth (NIV)

Good Good Father

God is a Good Father The boys and I went on a long road trip – 3 weeks! We had so much fun camping along the way and just being tourists and watching the hand of God. On our way home the song Good Good Father came on the radio and the boys and I started discussing how God is a good father. I knew that the Pacific coast would be cold at night and we had some blankets to keep us warm while we…

know who the enemy is

I’m sorry I haven’t posted in awhile. I’ve been upset and thinking. Several friends of mine are going through a divorce or have gone though a divorce and are now raising their children pretty much on their own. The things they go through have me upset. I get angry! I’ve talked to God a lot about them and I want things better for my friends. I have cried for them but not in front of them. I…

boundaries

My bible study group has decided to study out Job and I’m so grateful. I have focused on chapter 1 and 2 this week and had such an “oh wow” moment! … the angels came to present themselves before the Lord, and Satan also came with them. The Lord said to Satan, “Where have you come from?” Satan answered the Lord, “From roaming throughout the earth, going back and forth on it.” This is at the…

had enough

Honestly, there are days that I feel like I’ve just had enough. Usually after dealing with 3 boys and their attitudes and behaviors, bills we have just enough money to cover, my husband having a bad day, and trying to not make remarks back to strangers who feel comfortable talking to me about things I wish not to discuss with them. I know we all have those days. In 1 Kings 19 Elijah voiced what…

His will

2 Thessalonians 2:11-12 So God will cause them to be greatly deceived, and they will believe these lies. Then they will be condemned for enjoying evil rather than believing the truth. I have spent a few days thinking of this scripture, allowing it to tug at my heart. God would cause them to be greatly deceived? But God isn’t causing them or anyone to be deceived. God’s permitting us to be…

Psalm 100 A psalm. For giving grateful praise. 1Shout for joy to the Lord, all the earth. 2Worship the Lord with gladness; come before him with joyful songs. 3Know that the Lord is God. It is he who made us, and we are his ; we are his people, the sheep of his pasture. 4Enter his gates with thanksgiving and his courts with praise; give thanks to him and praise his name. 5For the Lord is good and…

marriage

1 Kings 11:1-3 King Solomon loved many foreign women in addition to Pharaoh’s daughter: Moabite, Ammonite, Edomite, Sidonian, and Hittite women from the nations that the Lord had told the Israelites about, “Do not intermarry with them, and they must not intermarry with you, because they will turn you away from Me to their gods.” Solomon was deeply attached to these women and loved them. He had…

as each day requires

My oldest son came to me yesterday and said that he wished our move would hurry up and come. Either we move now or we just didn’t move because he didn’t know what to do tomorrow. I tried to help him understand that we wouldn’t know anything definite for the next few weeks. But I understand how he feels. It’s hard to make plans when you just don’t know. 1 Kings 8:54-61 When Solomon finished…

baptism

Mark 16:16 Whoever believes and is baptized will be saved, This morning my middle was baptized! I couldn’t be happier. I have watched my young man struggle with his faith, with scripture, with his heart, for over a year. He wanted to get baptized, I wanted the child to get baptized, but he told me a year ago that his head knew why he needed to get baptized but his heart wasn’t there. My…

i am so mad

I am so mad. I have watched several people that I love in tears over the past few months. Feeling like they are tossed aside. They’ve asked me to not say anything and that is so hard! I love these people. They have inspired me. They have brought me to tears in worship watching their hearts as they praise God. They have called me higher in my own worship. I feel like God isn’t protecting…

John 20 (HCSB)

The Empty Tomb On the first day of the week Mary Magdalene came to the tomb early, while it was still dark. She saw that the stone had been removed from the tomb. So she ran to Simon Peter and to the other disciple, the one Jesus loved, and said to them, “They have taken the Lord out of the tomb, and we don’t know where they have put Him! ” At that, Peter and the other disciple went out, heading…

God's best

God’s best

Psalm 42:11 Why, my soul, are you downcast? Why so disturbed within me? Put your hope in God, for I will yet praise him, my Savior and my God. I know the scriptures that tell me God has a plan for me, God determines the steps of everyone, God is in control. But my heart still gets sad, downcast. I have to remind myself that God has me, my family, all the time. My dear husband has been…
