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.

12.12.12

Revelations 3:15-16 I know all the things you do, that you are neither hot nor cold. I wish that you were one of the other! But since you are like lukewarm water, neither hot nor cold, I will spit you out of my mouth.
 
My Thoughts
We can't love Jesus when it is convenient or on Sundays.  We can't pray to God just when we are in trouble. We can't know God when we are with our church friends and not acknowledge Him when we are at work.  It is more dangerous than not knowing God at all.  We fool nobody but ourselves when we are part-time Christians. The lies that we tell ourselves are the most dangerous of all!
 
In verse 22 Jesus says, "Anyone with ears to hear must listen to the Spirit and understand what He is saying to the Churches."  We must listen and be honest with ourselves.  Are we walking around being neither hot or cold?  I don't want to be standing before God and hear Jesus say, "I never knew you!"
