Father God let this touch someone’s heart in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Caring is intentionally. On Feb 11, 2022, I had trimmed some of the Holly bushes. I took and cut the crepe myrtle down to about 9ft tall. I took the branches and root stimulator and placed each branch in a container of prepared soil. So today I went out to clean the weeds out of the containers. So, the other containers holly, Agaves, Yucca palms, Lillys, butterfly bush and the crepe myrtle branches. Wow they are starting to bloom. So, the branches are starting to bloom. So, the propagations worked! Yea! This means they took root. I was so excited. See this is how God is with working within our soul. If we keep our soul clean and we do what is right. We will bloom right by caring intentionally. You can always tell a person’s attitude on how well they take care of their plants Miss Katherine once told me. She was one of the elderly people I worked for. I get it now! Back then I didn’t. Whatever you care for is going to grow and bloom.

My husband yesterday I couldn’t understand my Ivy that was in a jar I painted had yellow leaves. They were green last week. So, I went to change the Ivy out and add fresh water. Well, I found a screw in the old water. I said to my husband I found your screw in my Ivy jar! He told me he just wanted to add iron. Hmm! Funny man!

It reads in Luke 14:13-14 But when you give a reception, invite the poor, the crippled, the lame, the blind, and you will be blessed, since they do not have the means to repay you; for you will be repaid at the resurrection of the righteous.”

Little things mean a lot. Someone mentioning good memories, even encourage you or just listening. God promises to be intentionally caring with us.

It reads in Isaiah 40:11; He tends his flock like a shepherd: He gathers the lambs in his arms and carries them close to his heart; he gently leads those that have young.

{Let’s Pray}

Father God, I thank You and praise You for teaching us to care intentionally. Let me care about others as You do. Maybe by praying or serving them in a way that shows I care. Being patient, caring and sincere. Thank You for changing lives for the better. Help me to care and share with others about the wonderful things You have done. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Beloved, I pray that all may go well with you and that you may be in good health, as it goes well with your soul. 3 John 1:2

Father God, let this touch someone’s heart in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Someone we know has an illness that we think they will not overcome. We pray for them anyways and let it go. Go and see them to encourage them. We may of lost someone who was close to us, it feels like we will never get over this. Maybe someone lost a job and don’t know how they are going to get their next meal or pay to keep a roof over their head. Their world feels like there is no hope that everything is crumbling around them. Friend don’t give up; cause God will never give up on you.

It reads in Psalm 71:20-22; Though you have made me see troubles, many and bitter, you will restore my life again; from the depths of the earth, you will again bring me up. You will increase my honor and comfort me once more. I will praise you with the harp for your faithfulness, my God; I will sing praise to you with the lyre, Holy One of Israel.

God will comfort, give peace and guide others in your life who really care about what you are going through. God invites us to stay close to Him in everything. The grace of God we will have the opportunity to live again. We will have a crown one day to cast down at God’s throne. For now, we have hope and faith that God will never fail his people. As long as we live, we must continue to make plans for everyday life but remember we must plan for our permanent eternal home. This permanent home will have no more pain, suffering or despair. It reads in Luke 12:16; of the parable of the rich man, he had so many riches that he didn’t know what to do. He asked himself what he should do with his riches. He decided to build greater bonds. But he should’ve concentrated on building his soul instead. God wants us to know that in this parable we cannot store up what we have but to give to someone else. Pray for others, comfort them in their sufferings and put your light into action.

{Let’s Pray}

Father God, I thank You and praise You for Your church family. When my dreams feel like they are damaged there seems to be no return. Give me the comfort, courage, strength and peace that You promised to all who put their trust in You. Guide others who don’t know You to Your gift of Salvation so they can be our family members in eternity. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}

Very truly I tell you, you will weep and mourn while the world rejoices. You will grieve, but your grief will turn to joy.

John 16:20

Father God, let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

The Lord expects us to give Him our full attention. We can give our sins to Him to forgive us. We can be good stewards when we know that everything is a gift from God.

It reads in Hebrews 12:9–10; We have all had fathers here on earth who disciplined us, and we respected them. So, it is even more important that we accept discipline from the Father of our spirits so we will have life. Our fathers on earth disciplined us for a short time in the way they thought was best.

We can learn to give and learn to feel joy in God’s goodness. As we don’t give up on God and we keep being Thank you Full and Walking in His light.

When we see a family who goes to church, and they could be your neighbors. You see them each day and they are holding on to up righteousness in Christ. They are being a light and guiding other by doing right. We can take a plan of action to do what is right. Like going to school, studying, learning and not giving up. We achieve the goals we set out to do.
It reads in Psalm 41:12; Because of my integrity you uphold me and set me in your presence forever.

{Let’s Pray}

Father God, I thank You and praise You for leading me this far. Show in me anything that is not of You. I want my life to be so close to You and be able to pass Your light to others. I submit my life to You completely. I thank You and praise You for the work You do in me. Help me to carry it out to the day of Jesus Christ in His Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}

The integrity of the upright guides them, but the unfaithful are destroyed by their duplicity. Proverbs 11:3

Father God, let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
It reads in Isaiah 30:15;”For thus saith the Lord GOD, the Holy One of Israel; In returning and rest shall ye be saved; in quietness and in confidence shall be your strength: and ye would not.”.
‘Woe to the Obstinate Nation’. In this passage the Jews are compared to obstinate and rebellious children, and they are rebuked for constantly looking elsewhere for the answer to their problems, other than to God. Today, people are just as obstinate when they face problems, preferring instead to attempt to find their own solutions rather than taking the problem to God and following what He says. Unsealing the sealed Book of Isaiah overturns the learning of academics and exposes spiritual error. At Jehovah’s coming the rebellious suffer destruction but those who prove loyal enjoy deliverance. Those who trust in Egypt’s military might rely on an arm of flesh as Jehovah alone is all-powerful.
When we repent and return to God, we will have peace and not fear. When we turn to God in confidence, He will be our strength. As we have faith and wait in God’s presence. We will learn of His guidance on our lives.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You that we can be repenting of sins and abide in You we can rest in Your love and to trust in Your strength in peace and confidence. For You alone are my rock and encouragement. I thank You and praise You that You are my Provider and my Defender. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}
In all thy ways acknowledge Him, and He shall direct thy paths. Proverbs 3:6

Father God, let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
It reads in Matthew 5:44-46; But I tell you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you, that you may be children of your Father in heaven. He causes his sun to rise on the evil and the good and sends rain on the righteous and the unrighteous. If you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Are not even the tax collectors doing that?
If you are in a relationship with another human being and you want to spend the rest of your life with them. You have to make sacrifices. As well as the other person. Now if you stay close to God in everything you say and do. You will learn to stay close to God and include Him in all you do. If you are having problems with your significant other let God know! He wants you to confide in Him always. Our significant others have their reasoning or arguments. It is up to us to ask God to figure this out for us.

God’s greatest expression of HIs love is communicated to us in John 3:16: “For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life.” Romans 5:8 proclaims His greatest message: “But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” We can see from these verses that it is God’s greatest desire that we join Him in His eternal communication, home and heaven. He has made the way possible by paying the price for our sins. He loves us because He chose to as an act of His will. Love forgives. “If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just and will forgive us our sins and purify us from all unrighteousness” 1 John 1:9. Jesus words that the world must learn that I love the Father and that I do exactly what my Father has commanded me” John 14:31. In love, Jesus is always looking out for the interests of others. God will make all things work for His glory and your good. All God ever wanted for us to do our best.
Seek Refuge in God “The LORD is my rock and my fortress and my deliverer, my God, my rock, in whom I take refuge, my shield, and the horn of my salvation, my stronghold and my refuge, my savior; you save me from violence. I call upon the LORD, who is worthy to be praised, and I am saved from my enemies.”2 Samuel 22:2-4
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, whenever I am wanting to give up on my significant other, remind me how You have never given up on me. Whenever I am persecuted or harassed because of my faith in Your presence and promises. Guide me to react in kindness, respect, compassion and Your love. Remind me of the glorious future I still have in You. Through the work of the Holy Spirit, I have Your strength, comfort and peace. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}
For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. 2 Corinthians 4:17

Father God let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

A humble leader is secure enough to recognize his or her weaknesses and to seek the input and talents of others. By being receptive to outside ideas and assistance, creative leaders open up new avenues for the organization, for their volunteers and employees. The two key points stressed here are: secure and recognize. A leader has a significant role when it comes to molding followers and creating new leaders. This does not suggest that humble leaders never struggle with insecurities but recognizes that humility is based in strength not weakness.

It reads in 1 Peter 5:1-5; To the elders among you, I appeal as a fellow elder and a witness of Christ’s sufferings who also will share in the glory to be revealed: Be shepherds of God’s flock that is under your care, watching over them, not because you must, but because you are willing, as God wants you to be; not pursuing dishonest gain, but eager to serve; not lording it over those entrusted to you, but being examples to the flock. And when the Chief Shepherd appears, you will receive the crown of glory that will never fade away. In the same way, you who are younger, submit yourselves to your elders. All of you, clothe yourselves with humility toward one another, because,

“God opposes the proud but shows favor to the humble.”
People may make in front of you because you do for others and help them. Or you may thank people for their kindness or because they have done something for you, or they have taught you to be a better person. Either way. Never be ashamed for doing good. This is what God expects of us. He wants you to do good. Be a blessing no matter what!
Psalm 86:7 reads “Every time I’m in trouble I call on you, confident that you’ll answer.” A good leader is confident in their relationship with Christ. They know that they can always rely on Him for everything.
Show yourself in all respects to be a model of good works, and in your teaching show integrity, dignity, let no one despise you for your youth, but set the believers an example in speech, in conduct, in love, in faith, in purity. The only thing we can take to heaven with us is people. There is nothing more important than God’s people. I have always wanted to teach my children and grandchildren about Jesus Because my mom always talked about Jesus to those who would listen. Jesus came to this earth for the sinner, and He was for others. Even those who didn’t believe in Jesus. Jesus took two people with him. Faith comes easily to a child. I took my children to church and others with us also. I took my grandchildren to church. All I can do is let them know about Jesus. There is always someone even their own parents or friends will sway them away. I never have given up. I pray for them earnestly and also for godly people to influence their life with encouragement and Christ’s love and compassion. I know each one of them will lead. Lead others to Jesus. Through our words and our living example we will be given that privilege of leading them to Jesus. All honor and glory will be given to God through His children. I have openly made the Lord Jesus my life. Reading the bible and opportunities for the gifts He has given me to give away. The ocean reflects God’s character, so as we watch the rolls wave in know freedom flows out of righteousness through Christs work in us.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You that with sound, biblical doctrine that you will guide me to encourage our brothers and sisters in Christ. Let each one of us grow in grace and in a knowledge of You. I am believing for all Your children to live humbly and walk care full. I thank You and praise You for the faithful pastors and elders in our churches who humbly care for the people in their congregations, as they gently guide Your congregation in their charge. I believe for all those who have been called to be the Leaders of Your people and believe that You would empower each one with the gifts and graces they need to minister to those You have placed in their charge. Keep them from developing an attitude of pride or superiority, and I am believing that they will all rejoice with the saints in heaven, when they receive their crown of glory that will not pass away. Help each one to pattern their life on praise, worship and Jesus Christ, and each one set a godly example to those in their care. I love You, thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

{Power Verse}
Finally, brothers and sisters, rejoice! Strive for full restoration, encourage one another, be of one mind, live in peace. And the God of love and peace will be with you.

2 Corinthians 13:11

Father God let this touch someone’s heart today in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
It reads is Romans 5:7-11; For one will hardly die for a righteous man, though perhaps for the good man someone would dare even to die. But God demonstrates His own love toward us, in that while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us. Much more then, having now been justified by His blood, we shall be saved from the wrath of God through Him. For if while we were enemies we were reconciled to God through the death of His Son, much more, having been reconciled, we shall be saved by His life. And not only this, but we also exult in God through our Lord Jesus Christ, through whom we have now received the reconciliation.
I know that we show mercy to our children most of the time. Except when we say no more. Then we are the worse parent ever because we want them to do for themselves. To some adult children or other family members. But hey! We were not meant to do it all for everybody. We were meant to take care of ourselves also. I love how those family members who work right alongside of you, and everything works out just fine. I had a friend from church that I saw on the side of the road needing assistance for her and her children. My heart just felt like it dropped. This was someone I see more than my own family. Church family is closer than most. Why? Because I see church family every week. In the olden days family went to church together. Just saying. I know I see someone on the side of the road needing help my heart don’t drop like wow that is my sister in Christ or brother in Christ. But I do help if I have the resources. It means showing undeserved forgiveness or kindness. Mercy is given by a person in authority, who is also often the one who has been wronged. To show mercy is to offer relief to someone in a miserable state. You know God I don’t have a switch of heart. I think God’s heart drops for all of us all the same. I think when a person denies God that is when His heart drops.
But God shows his love for us in that while we were still sinners, Christ died for us.
Luke 1:50
And his mercy is for those who fear him from generation to generation.
So even if people are not close, because they choose not to be for selfish reasons or they are close cause you know them and spend more time with them. We should show mercy to all. So that they can in turn learn to show mercy to others also.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You for Your mercy to Your Children. I believe even though I was dead in trespasses and sins and at enmity with You, I have been called by You and chosen to be a child of God and a joint heir with Christ. I thank You and praise You for Church family that are close to You. I thank You and praise You that I am washed in the blood by grace through faith in Jesus and have been made a new creation in Jesus Christ. I believe I will put on a heart of compassion, kindness, forgiveness, humility, gentleness and patience, so that Jesus Christ is all and all in my life in His Precious Name Amen.

Be merciful, just as your Father is merciful. Luke 6:36

It reads in Luke 8:16-18; “No one after lighting a lamp covers it with a bowl or hides it under a bed. Instead, the person puts it on a lampstand so those who come in will see the light. For Everything that is ·hidden secret will ·become clear be revealed; disclosed; brought into the open and every ·secret hidden; concealed thing will be made known and come to light. So ·be careful pay attention; see how you listen.  For those who ·have understanding have will be given more. But those who do not ·have understanding have, even what they think they have will be taken away from them.”
This is funny. I went and bought a 25lb bag of new dog food. I thought I would spoil the dogs with something new. Not! The dog food was small pieces and hard. Well! I ended up making gravy with beef bouillon to mix and cook up with their new dog food. See the little pieces ended up on the ground. Then when I cleaned the dogs bed. I found pieces of dog food they couldn’t eat. So, I continued cooking it with gravy every day. So, after a month of this work. I went and got the old food they liked better. So, I started feeding it to the dogs and my long haired chihuahua ate the food. But my big dog Pongo JoJo still was putting it on the floor. I stopped that really quick! I picked up his food and told him he doesn’t get it till he eats it right. So, I gave it back to him this morning. It worked. Now Pongo is eating his food right. Guess I won’t change their food again.
So, another thing. I took pine mulch and mixed it with garden soil and planted some of my baby Yucca Palms in that mixed soil in the garden. Well, a few weeks later the baby Yucca palms was dying. I rushed to get them out of the ground. I put them in containers with potting soil and petalite and Epsom’s salt. I had put some rocks in the bottom of the containers. I took the dead leaves off. But I saved those plants and they lived.
We can make wrong choices that affect us. But we can turn it around and make all things right. It reads in Romans 8:27-28; And he who searches our hearts knows the mind of the Spirit, because the Spirit intercedes for God’s people in accordance with the will of God. And we know that in all things God works for the good of those who love him, who have been called according to his purpose.
{Let’s Pray}
Father God, I thank You and praise You for making mess’s into Your miracles. I thank You and praise You for the great things You have done for me, for others and for the wonderful work Jesus Christ did on the Cross at Calvary. I praise You Father God, for all the benefits I have received at Your hand. You have forgiven me all my sin and healed all my diseases. You have redeemed my life from the pit of hell and set my feet on the path of righteousness. I believe that I may be as ready and willing, to proclaim and share Your light. Your mighty works be guided to everyone I meet and that many would be released from the chains of death. That they may follow You with all their hearts in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

However, I consider my life worth nothing to me; my only aim is to finish the race and complete the task the Lord Jesus has given me, the task of testifying to the good news of God’s grace. Acts 20:24

As a mom can’t find her child because she is too busy cleaning after everyone, feeding everyone and all the little stuff. But loses 1 child when it is nap time and finds him sleeping in the toy box. That is a big thing to mom when she searches for that child and the child’s body was on schedule. LO! God see’s all the little stuff. Precious memories how they flood my mind and soul. The Mind Being a Part of the Soul. In Proverbs 2:10 it gives us the spiritual ground to prove that the mind is a part of the soul. This verse says, “Wisdom will enter your heart, and knowledge will be pleasant to your soul.” Because knowledge is a matter of the mind, this proves that the mind is a part of the soul. As I have said many times! The mind can heal the body, but the body cannot heal the mind. So, what we need through the day is to take small breaks of peace to calm our mind to rejuvenate. It can be hard sometimes. Even when we are doing something we can clear our minds with the thought of the ocean or looking into a peaceful sky. Bring your mind back into the sunset (Light) out of the darkness. I like to go play ball like in the rain. When I kick it to the dog, he goes after it. He doesn’t bring it back if it is the basketball. So I walk slowly to him in the peaceful rain.

It reads in Isaiah 26:3 “Thou wilt keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on thee: because he trusts in thee.” Time cannot take away from what isn’t real, time can only give us this moment, as we really live for Jesus.

{Let’s Pray}

Father God, I thank You and praise You for this gift that You have given me. The mind to do what is right and learn what is right in Your sight. I believe that the thoughts of my heart and the meditation of my mind be centered on You moment by moment, so that the righteousness and peace of Christ will embrace my life as I walk in spirit, truth and the power of the Holy Spirit with in me. I thank You, praise You and give You all the honor and glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

They say to stay healthy drink plenty of water.

It reads in Proverbs 11:24; “One gives freely yet grows all the richer; another withholds what he should give, and only suffers want.” It is righteous to practice generosity with our family, friends, and community as scripture inspires. You shall remember the Lord your God, for it is he who gives you power to get wealth, that he may confirm his covenant that he swore to your fathers, as it is this day. He who supplies seed to the Sower and bread for food will supply and multiply your seed for sowing and increase the harvest of your righteousness.
Drinking water helps to thin the mucus lining your airways and lungs. Dehydration can cause that mucus to thicken and get sticky, which slows down overall respiration and makes you more susceptible to illness, allergies and other respiratory problems. The Lungs: The airways and lungs are coated with clear secretions that promote proper respiration.
Be satisfied with Gods goodness and He will comfort you and give you joy for your sorrow. My people will be satisfied with My goodness,” declares the Lord. Behold, I will bring to it health and healing, and I will heal them; and I will reveal to them an abundance of peace and truth. Jeremiah 33:6-9
Carry water with you. Drink plenty of water each day to clean your system. Lemon and water is good. I learned in the year 2002 that water was my best friend. Cause I couldn’t eat nothing. I had to learn to eat all over again. I learned from my Daughter Love. Stomach Pain. If you are bothered with stomach pain, you can also use the pressure points on the body to find a bit of relief. To find this pressure point simply rub the side of your foot with your thumb, just above the arch. Many people experience some form of neck pain or tension. It is oftentimes caused by sitting at computers and behind desks or long periods of time. This pain can cause difficulty getting things done, but there is a pressure point that can work to relieve that. In the middle of your palms of your hand place pressure with your thumbs lightly. Relax and sit back while doing this. Good news is that pinched nerves often resolve with home remedies and exercises. I like to do stretches. You can always contact a therapist who can show you all this and then some. We are all created by God who created us as one and when a sister of brother guides you on the right path of healing. Believe this is a gift from God. Your sight and giving being is a gift from God. God has no secrets. He reviles all to us and it is up to us to grasp this. It reads in Deuteronomy 29:29 The secret things belong to the LORD our God, but the things revealed belong to us and to our children forever, that we may follow all the words of this law. In this chapter God is reminding the people that they are in covenant with him.

It reads in Ezekiel 37:5; Thus, saith the Lord God unto these bones; Behold, I will cause breath to enter into you, and ye shall live: Let everything that has breath praise the Lord! Praise the Lord!
{Let’s Pray}

Father God, I thank You and praise You for opening our heart and lungs as we praise You. We praise You and thank You for revealing Your marvellous plan of salvation to us and to our children, grand children, great Grandchildren as they pass You Lord Jesus on to the next generations. I thank You and praise You for showing us all wisdom, knowledge and grace that we can grasp as we walk with You. Assist me to be a diligent student of Your Word and pass it on to others. I am believing for the next generation will love and follow in Your path of wisdom, grace and common sense. I thank You and praise You for those who have mentored and encouraged us to walk with You as You suffered going to the cross and as You died for our sins so we can live and walk right in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
