True Worshippers Don't Have to Be Told to Worship God
The act of worship is expressed daily by every creation – nature, animals, the heavens, and mankind. This act that we do is praise. Praising is very important, and learning about it has and will do wonders for your life. That is why we do it so much! We praise at ballgames, concerts and celebrities idols. We don’t have a problem with praising anyone or anything. However, when the scriptures tell…

1. “David and Saul finished talking, and soon David and Jonathan became best friends. Jonathan thought as much of David as he did of himself. From that time on, Saul kept David in his service and would not let David go back to his own family. Jonathan liked David so much that they promised to always be loyal friends. Jonathan took off the robe that he was wearing and gave it to David. He also gave him his military clothes, his sword, his bow and arrows, and his belt. David was a success in everything that Saul sent him to do, and Saul made him a high officer in his army. That pleased everyone, including Saul's other officers.” —1 Samuel 18:1‭-‬5 (CEV)
2. “You are better having a friend than to be all alone, because then you will get more enjoyment out of what you earn. If you fall, your friend can help you up. But if you fall without having a friend nearby, you are really in trouble.” —Ecclesiastes 4:9‭-‬10 (CEV)
3. “As one piece of iron sharpens another, so friends keep each other sharp.” —Proverbs 27:17 (ERV)
4. “A friend is there to help, in any situation, and relatives are born to share our troubles.” —Proverbs 17:17 (CEV)
5. “Then the Lord God said, “I see that it is not good for the man to be alone. I will make the companion he needs, one just right for him.”—Genesis 2:18 (ERV)
Ever since the beginning of the Word, it has been Gods plan that we not go through life alone. Jesus Himself had His Disciples, close friends to support Him through tough times. He said, “Servants don't know what their master is doing, and so I don't speak to you as my servants. I speak to you as my friends, and I have told you everything my Father has told me.” (John 15:15, CEV)
A good friend is a blessing from God. Amen! 🙌

4 Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. 5 When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven.

Connecting the Dots
I have learned to connect the dots on so many levels. God helps me with that. Daily. If I don’t have enough time to work out, rather than stress about it, I chill. No sense making an ado about nothing. Connect the dots of “chilling” on this day. Maybe my body needs a rest day. Yikes! I have a husband now! That means my morning routine has changed. I don’t have enough time to write two blogs –…

The simple mindset that brings light
The simple mindset that brings light
Believers have been set apart to witness to the truth of God in this world. Luke 11:34-35: “The lamp of the body is the eye. Therefore when your eye is good, your whole body is also full of light; but when it is evil, your body also is full of darkness. Therefore see whether the light that is in you isn’t darkness. “ One of the strengths of the Hebraic worldview is that it always paints things…

What We Think Is Not Always Trustworthy
What We Think Is Not Always Trustworthy
A friend sent a message a few days ago and asked if I could give her some verses to help with her thoughts about herself. I gave this a couple of days of reflection and sent these words back to her: One of the verses I often go to when my mind gives me all kinds of negative thoughts about who I am and what I am and what I’ve done is Proverbs 3:5 – Trust in the LORD with all your heart and lean…

Proverbs 27:2. “Let another praise you, and not your own mouth; A stranger, and not your own lips.” Proverbs 16:24 (NLT). “Kind words are like honey— sweet to the soul and healthy for the body.”
 “Handling Praise” By In Touch Ministries:
“Do you feel awkward when someone compliments you?”
“Think about a time when you received praise from a parent, a teacher, or an employer. How did you feel? Did it make you glad or uncomfortable? For many people, praise is nearly as difficult to handle as criticism. Because God’s Word instructs us to be humble (Matthew 18:4; Philippians 2:3), we may sometimes feel confused about how to receive compliments. Here are three ways to respond:
1. Acknowledge the comment by thanking the person. Don’t explain why you are unworthy of praise or try to deflect such kindness. The Lord is using that person to bless you!
2. Identify and acknowledge the character quality that led the other person to commend you. Perhaps he or she sees something you’ve missed (and that God wants you to be aware of). Remember, believers are called to “encourage one another and build one another up” in the Lord (1 Thessalonians 5:11).
3. Share what the encouragement means to you personally. Scripture says that “pleasant words are a honeycomb, sweet to the soul and healing to the bones” (Proverbs 16:24). Tell the other person how much you’ve been blessed by his or her attention and care. After all, praise can go both ways.”
Matthew 18:4. “Whoever then humbles himself as this child, he is the greatest in the kingdom of heaven.”
Philippians 2:3. “Do nothing from selfishness or empty conceit, but with humility of mind regard one another as more important than yourselves;”
[Unless otherwise stated, Bible verses are in the NASB translation.]

Wisdom is Rare. Share Some of Yours With Us!
Wisdom is Rare. Share Some of Yours With Us!
“Then he taught me and said to me, “Let your heart hold fast my words; Keep my commandments and live; Acquire wisdom! Acquire understanding!” (Proverbs 3:4-5, NIV). Taught and Caught Make a quick mental list of things important to you that were taught to you by someone else. The obvious things like reading, riding a bike, swimming, and driving a car come to mind… And then there are the subtle…

Why Should We Read and Study the Bible Daily?
Why Should We Read and Study the Bible Daily?
1. To obtain instructions. To keep His words in our hearts. “Receive, I pray thee, the law from his mouth, and lay up his words in thine heart.” (Job 22:22) 2. To obtain corrections, which lead to life. “For the commandment is a lamp; and the law is light; and reproofs of instruction are the way of life.” (Proverbs 6:23) 3. To help us obey God. To avoid sin.  “I have stored what you have…
