I decided to start this blog (2010) because my son, John-Robert gave me a One Year Bible for Christmas, the New Living Translation... reading it has changed my life... I post a daily Bible verse on my Facebook page every day and it has been well received... I thought that this would be a wonderful way to share part of what I read each day!... I hope that you enjoy it.



This Year 2012 I am going to do things a little different... not much...just a little. I am again reading through my One Year Bible (for the 3rd time). But I am also using "The Secret Power of Speaking God's Word" by Joyce Meyer. This book is divided by putting scriptures under different categories so they can be used to speak over our life situations. Each day I will read a category of scripture and pick a scripture in that category to write about.

6.11.10

Psalms 129:4 But the Lord is good; he as cut me free from the ropes of the ungodly.

My Thoughts
God is good.  God does take care of us and set us free! God helps us when we deal with the ungodly.  But we have to do our part first, we have to learn what God wants from us.  The important thing to remember is that the things God ask us to do are the things that will make our lives better.  Just as rule of parents are to make the lives of their children better.  But God is perfect in his rules and promises. The author of God's Little Devotion Book but it well when he said "Many people want to experience the fullness of God's promises in their lives, but they are unwilling to do the work that goes along with most of the Bible's promises.  Most of God's promises are in-then statements....if we do one thing, God will do another.  Our part nearly always comes first!  One of the biggest things that we have to do is learn what the promises of God are!... when we know what God promises us we know what we can ask for.  If we are doing what God ask (this is important so listen carefully) If we are doing what God ask then he doesn't have to protect people from us, he can protect us from the ungodly, God can be on our side when we do our part.
