"Marvelous, infinite, matchless grace,

Freely bestowed on all who believe!

You that are longing to see His face,

Will you this moment His grace receive?"  

-Julia Harriette Johnston

IN EVERYTHING GIVE THANKS

Like a number of people I have had times of

extreme pain.  I can recall at least three times

of living with pain so extreme I wanted to cry 

like a baby.

However in one way or another God has healed

me in each instance.  But what has that to do with

the picture of pain relievers above?

A few days ago I ended up with a minor injury

that, well, it hurt.  So, I decided to take a pill

because we had some in the cabinet. 

What I found was, the the pills in the larger

bottel had passed their expiration date over

a year ago.

The middle bottle had passed it's expiration

date over three years ago.  And the little 

bottle had passed it's expiration date over

five years ago.  And, they all still had pills

in them.

So, I thank God for giving me enough pain

free living to not need all those pain pills.

and adoration." 

-Benjamin Franklin

TODAY'S PROMISE

Jesus Christ said;

"Do not let your heart be troubled; believe in God,

believe also in Me.  In my Father's house are many

dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told

you for I go to prepare a place for you.  If I go and 

prepare a place for you, I will come again and receive

you to Myself, that where I am there you may be

also."  

(John 14:1-3 NASB)

COMPUTERS MAKE HYPRICITES

Being a very, very old man I grew up in a

"scientific" attitude that if you could not see

it, feel it, taste it, hear it, smell it, measure it,

or weight it; it did not exist.  And therefore a 

"spiritual" realm could not exist.

But our computers, radios, iPads, cell phones

and Wepads or what ever else is out there has

made such an attitude utter nonsense.

The picture above is on my computer of a

recent earthquake in California.  But, there

is not so much as even a wire going to my 

computer.  No one brought in a picture and

put it on my computer so it must be a fake.

I know.  We can receive and even measure

the strength of these "unseen" radio waves,

IF WE ARE TUNED IN TO THEM.

Even if some fake scientist cannot measure

a spiritual realm, there is one.  He/she/it is

just not tuned in to the "spiritual realm".

Probably because they do not want to be,

just like I could refuse to accept that my 

computer works even if I do not understand

how it works.

God is.  And those of us who are willing

to submit to him and come into relationship

with him are just as aware of his existance

and and sense his presence as easily as to

use a computer and use WiFi which we 

cannot see, feel, touch, smell or hear.
