I will rejoice

Habakkuk 3:18 "Yet I will rejoice in the LORD, I will joy in the God of my salvation."

Do you still rejoice in your salvation? As Christians we should always rejoice in the fact that we received Christ. If you stop and think about it, Jesus didn't have to do what he did for us, BUT he chose to because he LOVED us! John 3:16, "For God so loved the world that he gave his only begotten son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."

As we look at Habakkuk 3:18 and John 3:16 we really and truly have a lot to be very thankful for. 
I've not said a whole lot about rejoicing and giving thanks, it's just a thought; to remind us that your salvation is more than enough for you to be thankful for.

Rejoice in the Lord

Psalms 97:12 "Rejoice in the Lord, ye righteous; and give thanks at the remembrance of his holiness."

Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again I say Rejoice!
Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again I say Rejoice!
Rejoice!
Rejoice! and again I say rejoice!
Rejoice in the Lord alway, and again I say Rejoice!

Remember to be joyful
Every day rejoice in the Lord
Joy is part of rejoicing
Others need to see you rejoicing in what God has done in and through you.
In all things rejoice
Christ is the reason for rejoicing
Eternal security should bring rejoicing.

Giving Thanks Isn't A Once A Year Thing.

Hello friends :)

With November 1st approaching rather quickly, and the holidays approaching even faster. I have thought and prayed about what to do on this blog for the last 2 months of the year. I don't post just to post, I post what the Lord has laid on my heart in hopes that someone will be helped, blessed or encouraged from this blog.

So as I was thinking about and praying what to do Thanksgiving is to be a year around thing not just 1 month out of the year. So my thought of a month of thanksgiving was quickly changed. However verses of encouragement and thanksgiving is what I believe the Lord would have me share.

So even though we aren't in November yet the verses will begin today :) Some days will only be a verse where others there maybe a statement with the verse, I'm just allowing the Holy Spirit to lead in what I do and say through this blog.

As I was reading this morning in John 14, the Lord was talking about peace. You know in this crazy mixed up world and with this election (which I'll not go into) we need to seek the Lord for Peace and comfort. John 14:27 says, "Peace I leave with you, my peace I give unto you: not as the world giveth, give I unto you. Let not your heart be troubled, neither let it be afraid."

This world can't give us peace! Peace comes from God and only from God. So as you go through the rest of today remember seek the Lord for peace. (My husband just told me as I was talking with him on the phone, and I told him what I was posting today, that last night (I was home sick) our pastor preached on peace). So, even though I've not heard the sermon, I know we can't live on our own peace we need the peace that ONLY our Lord can give.

Friend one way to have peace about your future is knowing 100% for sure that you are going to heaven. If you are unsure of this please feel free to comment or contact me. I would love to show you how our loving, heavenly Father has provided a way for salvation.
