Romans 13:11-12 Cast Off the Works of Darkness and Put on the Armor of Light

Romans 13:11-12 That, knowing the time, that now it is high time to awake out of sleep: for now is our salvation nearer than when we believed. The night is far gone; the day is at hand. So then let us cast off the works of darkness & put on the armor of light. Mark 13:36-37 Otherwise, He may arrive without notice & find us sleeping. & what I say to you, I say to everyone: Keep watch!” — This reminds me of the Parable of the ten virgins, 5 wise who took oil for their lamps & 5 foolish who did not take oil for their lamps! —Matt 25:13 (KJV)Watch therefore, for ye know neither the day nor the hour wherein the Son of man cometh. — So what do we do? —Matt 6:33 But seek ye first the kingdom of God, & his righteousness; & all these things shall be added unto you. — When we spend our time seeking Him, we are certain to find Him!

God Made Us Alive Together With Christ Because of His Great Love For Us

Eph 2:4-5 (ESV) God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which He loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace we have been saved. 1John4:10 In this is love, not that we have loved God but that He loved us & sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. Psalm 136:26 Give thanks to the God of heaven, for His steadfast love endures forever. 1 John 4:7 Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God… — Why love? Because love will be forever! Love is a fruit of the spirit & we are to live in the spirit! Love is from God & is everlasting! — 1Cor 13:13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.— Love is the greatest of any thing we can do that will last thru out eternity! It is the one thing that we can do that will never be destroyed! —1Peter 4:8 Above all, keep loving one another earnestly, since love covers a multitude of sins. — Love is a real saving grace! Showing love shows Him within us! Let’s do it! Love Mel
Thanks for all the prayers! God was faithful! Praise Him!

Mark 4: The Lord Rebukes the Wind, Waves and Sea and They OBEY

Mark 4:37-40 (KJV) There arose a great storm of wind, & the waves beat into the ship, so that it was now full. & He was in the hinder part of the ship, asleep on a pillow: & they awake Him, & say unto Him, Master, carest thou not that we perish? & He arose, & rebuked the wind, & said unto the sea, Peace, be still. & the wind ceased, & there was a great calm. & He said unto them, Why are ye so fearful? how is it that ye have no faith?— Key is finding peace in the midst of the storms in life! If God be for us, then what can mere man do to us? If God be with us, then what can evil do to us that will not become our benefit! If we can find faith in Him even in the hard times, there we will surely find His glory! Always keep the faith, pray about everything & worry about nothing, & it will be well with us! All things put in His hands can be trusted there! Because He cares for us! & Don’t ever forget it! If you ever find yourself anxious, just start singing that little childhood song, “JESUS LOVES ME” & you will find that calming spirit! Love Mel
