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.

11.13.13

Psalm 111:5 He gives food to those who fear him, he always remembers his covenant.

My Thoughts
I read this and thought, "All I have to do is seek God then He takes care of the rest."   To fear God means to be in awe and reverence of Him.  I was trying to think of a moment that I was in awe...I remember the first time I saw the ocean...all I could do was look at it...I wanted to stand there and look at if for hours upon end.  Even when we left and did other things... I was excited to get back to see the ocean. We need to always be excited to get back to the presence of God. We should want to just stand in His presence!!  When we feel this way about God, He makes sure that our needs are met.  Our job is to love God, to thank God, to praise God... Matthew 6:33 tells us to see God first and all else will be added.

We as people make life so hard.  We want to work hard enough, be good enough!  God gives so much that often we feel like He expects so much from us.  But it is really so simple... we need to love God above all else and He will take care of the rest!!  Here in Psalm 11:5 it says He give us food if we are in awe of Him!!  Wow!
