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.

9.9.11

Psalms 130:24 Point out anything in me that offends you, and lead me along the path of everlasting life.

My Thoughts
This is not an easy thing to say to God but, it is one of the most important things we can say to God.  The more we listen to God about what he wants us to do and what he wants us to stop doing the better off we will be. The more we know, the more we grow. When we are offending God we have obstacles in the way of our relationship with God. When we remove those obstacles it clears the path for better communication. We need to be able to hear God at all times so we can become as wonderful as God intends for us to be.  If there is ever anything between us and God is is something that we are doing, it isn't something God is doing. The wonderful thing is God doesn't make us guess what we have done to offend him, God will tell us if we ask. Then we can ask forgiveness and God grants that forgiveness. Unlike people God doesn't hold grudges or keep a list of how we have done wrong, God throws our sins as far as the east is from the west so that we can move forward and become better. God wants us to get our sins out of the way so we can be better. Facing what we have done is the hard part, getting past it is easy when we have the grace of God.
