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.

5.10.13

1 Samuel 9:20b-22 And I (Samuel) and here to tell you that you and your family are the focus of all of Israel's hopes.

Saul replied, "But I'm only form the tribe of Benjamin, the smallest tribe in Israel, and my family is the least important of all the families of that tribe! way are you talking like this to me?"
 
My Thoughts
Gideon who fought with only 300 men and won great battles against thousands said the same when God picked him to lead His people.  What does this tell us?  Two things, first that nothing is impossible with God no matter who we are. 2. We are never to small to be used by God.  When God was with these men, they became great leaders.  When God is with us we can become anything that God will have us to be, God will make us able. When God does use us...it is so important that we give God all the glory!! Each day in our lives when good things happen, for us or through us, it is God's gift to us.  We need to remember this and send up praises and thanks for those wonderful things in our lives because wonderful always comes from God!
