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.

6.19.12

1 King 21:20 "So, my enemy, you have found me!" Ahab exclaimed to Elijah.  "Yes," Elijah answered, " I have come because you have sold yourself to evil in the Lord's site.

My Thoughts
"You have sold yourself to evil," wow those words sent chills down my spine!!  I know that sin is wrong... I know that it displeases God.  I try not to sin!!... But, I have never thought of it as selling myself to evil!! Have you? If somebody asked me "Would you sell your soul to the devil?" Of course I would say "NO!' We all would!!  The devil is evil... each time we choose to sin..we are doing what Ahab did...we are selling ourselves to evil.  This will make me think long and hard the next time I have a thought like "I should not be saying this!"  and then I keep going... I believe the Holy Spirit instead of saying "don't say it Jeannie"  might just say "Do you really want to sell your soul to evil?"
