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.

6.4.10

II Samuel 2:19-20 They (my enemy) attacked me at a moment when I was in distress, but the Lord supported me.  He led me to a place of safety; he rescued me because he delights in me.

My Thoughts
God wants to take care of us!... I see this verse through the eyes of a parent... when our children are small we can sit for hours just watching them... we just delight in their learning, their play, in all that they do.  We are there watching over them and if they stumble we are right there to help them... to pick them up... to wipe them off... to move them to safety.  But there sometimes comes a day when we try to help them and they push us away... they want to do it all on their own... God is like that he watches over us without slumber... he watches over us all the time...and wants to protect us from anything that wants to harm us!.. He will protect us.. take us to a place where its safe because he loves us so much.  Just remember when we push God away too much then he steps back and waits for us to call on him for help... just like we do with our children.  But as soon as we say "help me God I need you" God is right there to keep us safe. Isn't is awesome to have someone there.. to have God there to take care of us, to watch over us, to lead us to a place of safety.  Isn't it awesome that God delights in us... how special is that!

5.29.30

II Samuel 14:14b But God does not just sweep life away; instead, he devises ways to bring us back when we have been separated from him.

My Thoughts
God loves us so much!... He thinks about us all the time, he wants us to walk with him, to talk with him... God wants us to live in a way that he can heap blessing on our lives... and if we take the wrong fork in the road God is always connecting out path to his so that we can find our way back... if we are lost from God he wants us to come back.. God wants to forgive us our sins, no sin is so bad that God won't forgive us... all we have to do is reach out to Him and he will take our hand ... and as we start walking with him again he will again reward our steps when we take our steps with Him.
