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.

6.11.13

1 Kings 8:57-58 May the Lord our God be with us as he was with our ancestors; may he never leave us or abandon us.  May he give us the desire to do his will in everything and to obey all the commands, decrees and regulations that he gave our ancestors.
 
My Thoughts
King Solomon was standing over his people giving them a blessing when he said this.  When I read it I thought of the story where a father was asking Jesus to heal  his child he also asked Jesus to help his unbelief (Mark 9). This verse teaches me that I can ask God to help me have the desire to do His will.  I just need the desire to desire to do God's will... I just need a mustard seed of want...then when I ask God will take care of the rest!!  There is so much we can do is we just ask God.
