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.

8.11.10

Nehemiah 1:9 But if you return to me and obey my commands and live by them, then even if you are exiled to the ends of the earth, I will bring you back to the place I have chosen for my name to be honored."

My Thoughts
This is such a wonderful promise from God... He takes us back... if we mess up and God abandons us because we are not living like he ask us to... all we have to do is do the things God wants, call out to him, talk to him daily, do our best to keep his commands... grown in his wisdom...and God will put us right back where we belong... God is saying "OK you messed up!  Now do it right... and everything will be okay."  We don't need to beat ourselves up... we need to "fess up" and move forward with God... we can never move so far away from God that he won't come and get us when we call out to him and do the things He ask!... that is an awesome promise!!
