“Jesus Life Was Predicted by Isaiah long before Jesus was born.
I bring this up before Palm Sunday was actually the fulfillment of one of those prophecies. In a book in the Old Testament are the writings of the prophet Isaiah. In his prophecy, he sees the Lord getting spit upon and ridiculed. Even His beard is being pulled as He is mocked and beaten. Imagine God who became man to teach us how to get to Heaven, and this is how we treat Him. The Passion of our Lord is something we should meditate on often, because it shows us just how much our God cares for us and loves us. No matter what suffering we endure, He knows what it is like to be hurt and wounded by those He loved. So this week as we shout “Hosanna”, think about how great a love God has for you that He would send His only begotten Son to suffer and die for us that we may attain everlasting life. Perhaps we could read some of those scriptures and do some meditating? Something to think about.

1) He hath no form nor comeliness:
Who has believed our message
and to whom has the arm of the Lord been revealed?
2 )He grew up before him like a tender shoot,
and like a root out of dry ground.
He had no beauty or majesty to attract us to him,
nothing in his appearance that we should desire him.
{This text predicts that Jesus would have the physical appearance of an average man of that time. The verse explains that he would have no distinguishable beauty or attractiveness, and that he would look like an ordinary Jew. This is quite a powerful prophecy of the coming Messiah, in that he would not appear in the glory of a king or a god, but rather a normal human being.}
{Jesus said unto them, Verily, verily, I say unto you, Before Abraham was, I am. Then took they up stones to cast at him: but Jesus hid himself, and went out of the temple, going through the midst of them, and so passed by. John 8:58-59} This New Testament verse in the book of John confirms the prophecy found in verse Isaiah 53:2. When the Jews were about to stone Jesus, he was able to escape and blend into a crowd, because he was an average looking man. Had Jesus been a beautiful, awe-striking man, the Jews would have been able to pick him out of the crowd of people.

3) Rejected by the World Fulfillment: Isaiah 53:3&4
He was despised and rejected by mankind,
a man of suffering, and familiar with pain.
Like one from whom people hide their faces
he was despised, and we held him in low esteem. Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.
{Jesus Christ was clearly reject by the Jewish people when he was tried and crucified. His charges were blasphemy, because of the claims he made of deity. We can clearly see from the crucifixion that Jesus was neither accepted nor respected by his people as the Messiah.}
Rejected by the World Fulfillment: Isaiah 53:4

Surely he took up our pain
and bore our suffering,
yet we considered him punished by God,
stricken by him, and afflicted.
{Surely he took up our pain and bore our suffering, yet we considered him punished by God, stricken by him, and afflicted.}

5) He was wounded for our transgressions: Isaiah 53:5&6
But he was pierced for our transgressions,
he was crushed for our iniquities;
the punishment that brought us peace was on him,
and by his wounds we are healed.
We all, like sheep, have gone astray,
each of us has turned to our own way;
and the Lord has laid on him
the iniquity of us all.

{Crucifixion Fulfillment:
Christ would be “wounded” for our transgressions by being crucified by the Romans. The Lord would put the punishment for our sins on Jesus’ shoulders.

{This Isaiah 53 Bible prophecy predicts the sacrifice that Jesus Christ would placed on the cross for our iniquities.}

6) He opened not his mouth:
Isaiah 53:7 He was oppressed and afflicted,
yet he did not open his mouth;
he was led like a lamb to the slaughter,
and as a sheep before its shearers is silent,
so he did not open his mouth.

{This is perhaps the most specific Isaiah 53 Bible prophecy that Jesus fulfilled. Verse 7 predicts that Jesus would not speak, and not defend himself. Just like a “lamb to the slaughter, and as a sheep before her shearers is dumb” Christ would not defend himself when on trial. The passage predicts that he would remain silent, accepting his fate.}
5) He was cut off out of the land of the living:

Isaiah 53:8 By oppression and judgment he was taken away.
Yet who of his generation protested?
For he was cut off from the land of the living;
for the transgression of my people he was punished.

6) He made his grave with the wicked:

This prophecy from Isaiah 53 is two fold. First, the prophet predicted that Jesus would make his grave with the wicked, meaning he would die with the unrighteous. Secondly, this verse predicts that Christ would live a sinless life, doing no violence nor lying.

Isaiah 53:9 He was assigned a grave with the wicked,
and with the rich in his death,
though he had done no violence,
nor was any deceit in his mouth.
7) Sinless Life and Crucifixion Fulfillment:
The first part of the prophecy was fulfilled when Jesus was crucified with two thieves on the cross. With this, Jesus “made his grave with the wicked” being killed with two unrighteous criminals.

The second part of the Isaiah 53 Bible prophecy was fulfilled when Jesus lived a sinless and blameless life. He did no violence nor lied about who he was. Because Jesus had no “deceit in his mouth”, everything he said about his deity was true. Isaiah 53 in turn confirms his deity by declaring he did not lie, hence everything he claimed was true.

Isaiah 53:10 Yet it was the Lord’s will to crush him and cause him to suffer,
and though the Lord makes his life an offering for sin,
he will see his offspring and prolong his days,
and the will of the Lord will prosper in his hand.
Isaiah 53 Atonement For Sin Fulfillment:
1 Peter 3:18: For Christ also hath once suffered for sins, the just for the unjust, that he might bring us to God, being put to death in the flesh, but quickened by the Spirit:

This Isaiah 53 Bible Prophecy fulfillment is confirmed by so many verses in the New Testament, however 1 Peter 3:18 is one example. Jesus’ death was a sacrifice because of sin, so that we may be right with God in the day of judgement. There is no amount of good deeds or works man can do to be in good standing with a perfect and holy God. So in an act of unconditional love and sacrifice, God sent his only son into the world to pay the price that we could not.
Isaiah 53 Silent Sacrifice Fulfillment:
Isaiah 53:11-12
After he has suffered,
he will see the light of life and be satisfied;
by his knowledge my righteous servant will justify many,
and he will bear their iniquities.
Therefore I will give him a portion among the great,
and he will divide the spoils with the strong,
because he poured out his life unto death,
and was numbered with the transgressors.
For he bore the sin of many,
and made intercession for the transgressors.
Isaiah 53 Silent Sacrifice Fulfillment:
Matthew 27:11-14
And Jesus stood before the governor: and the governor asked him, saying, Art thou the King of the Jews? And Jesus said unto him, Thou sayest. And when he was accused of the chief priests and elders, he answered nothing. Then said Pilate unto him, Hearest thou not how many things they witness against thee? And he answered him to never a word; insomuch that the governor marvelled greatly.

{As we can see in the book of Matthew, Jesus Christ did not defend himself against the accusations of the chief priests and the elders. Jesus fulfilled this Isaiah 53 prophecy by remaining silent at his sentencing. Like a lamb to the slaughter, Christ made no defense.}

Isaiah 53 Crucifixion Fulfillment:
Jesus would obviously fulfill this Isaiah 53 Bible prophecy of being “cut off out of the land of the living”, by dying on the cross. He would no longer be in the “land of the living” because he would die a gruesome and horrible death.

Good morning, I want to talk about hope. I know 3 famous people from long ago. One was my Grand mother “Grace Jackson’ Grace was a singer, she sang songs with a band or bands. She made RCA records, but she didn’t become so popular. She was my grandmother and she was famous for her gingerbread cookies and peanut butter and marshmallow sandwiches, that I have never made as good as they tasted long ago. I remember one time, my brother and sister caught the measles, but I didn’t. So our grandfather and grandmother Grace took just me to the beach and bought me new sneakers and new clothes. I had fun. But she didn’t when my dad and mom got mad at her for taking me to the beach. Well eventually our grandmother Grace went through a disease called Leukemia, which seemed not long when she passed away. But Grace was famous in my memories.

Then there was my other “grandmother Ruth”. Ruth had diabetes. A disease that took both her legs “amputation”. Our grandmother passed away when I was a year old. Our mom talked great about Ruth and Ruth will always be famous in my eyes. Then My grandmothers knew Jesus. Not every body knows of all the famous people I have met that knew Jesus. I have met lots of people in my life time. The most famous person I have heard about is Jesus. The one thing I have learned is, when you go through something difficult or you see someone going through something difficult and You pray for them, God hears. He gave us this powerful mind as a gift. God don’t need a GPS to find us. Amen!
{Asking prayers for my Sister Rae and My brother Tim, they are going through the same disease our Grandmother Ruth went through. They also know Jesus}

{I will go before thee, and make the crooked places straight. Isaiah 45:2}
Dear Lord, my path may be strange, it may be dark. Help me not to fear since You light the way. I can safely follow You in Jesus Precious Name Amen.
Paul speaking to Christians: Grace to you and peace from God our Father and the Lord Jesus Christ. Colossians 1:25-29
“God has sent me to help His church and to tell His secret plan to you Gentiles. For He has had a secret for centuries and generations past, but now at last it has pleased Him to tell it to those who love Him and live for Him, and the riches and glory of His plan are for you Gentiles too, and this is the secret: that Jesus Christ in your hearts is your only hope of glory. And so everywhere we go and to all who will listen we preach Jesus Christ; warning them and teaching them as well as we know how, so that we can present each one to God, perfect because of what Christ has done for each of them. This is my work, and I can do it only because Christ’s energy is at work within me.
{The mind can heal the heart, but the heart can’t heal the mind. Amen!}
“The good man walks along in the ever-brightened light of God’s favor; the dawn gives way to morning splendor.

Proverbs 4:18″

Have a awesome day full of blessings and joy.

Psalm 40 is a song written by David, most probably before he was king and when he was a fugitive from Saul. It was common in times of distress and hardship like this to reflect upon God’s past acts of salvation. The remembrance of these things acted as the faith-foundation for the prayer that would follow. This Psalm is a lament psalm that starts with praise and confidence – and then moves into the lament and petitions. What’s interesting is that it seems like David begins with praise from the past in order to deal with his problems in the present. This Psalm is a song about the pits. It falls into two sections. In the first half (40:1-10), David tells how God got him out of one pit and he sings God’s praise for doing so. But he did not then live happily ever after. Rather, it is evident from the second half of the psalm. {40:11-17} His petition is a plea for deliverance from his enemies, but it is wider than that. He is concerned about the triumph of all righteous people.

Psalm 40:1-17
I waited patiently for the LORD; and he inclined unto me, and heard my cry. He brought me up also out of an horrible pit, out of the miry clay, and set my feet upon a rock, and established my goings. And he hath put a new song in my mouth, even praise unto our God: many shall see it, and fear, and shall trust in the LORD. Blessed is that man that maketh the LORD his trust, and respecteth not the proud, nor such as turn aside to lies. Many, O LORD my God, are thy wonderful works which thou hast done, and thy thoughts which are to us-ward: they cannot be reckoned up in order unto thee: if I would declare and speak of them, they are more than can be numbered. Sacrifice and offering thou didst not desire; mine ears hast thou opened: burnt offering and sin offering hast thou not required. Then said I, Lo, I come: in the volume of the book it is written of me, I delight to do thy will, O my God: yea, thy law is within my heart. I have preached righteousness in the great congregation: lo, I have not refrained my lips, O LORD, thou knowest. I have not hid thy righteousness within my heart; I have declared thy faithfulness and thy salvation: I have not concealed thy lovingkindness and thy truth from the great congregation. Withhold not thou thy tender mercies from me, O LORD: let thy lovingkindness and thy truth continually preserve me. For innumerable evils have compassed me about: mine iniquities have taken hold upon me, so that I am not able to look up; they are more than the hairs of mine head: therefore my heart faileth me. Be pleased, O LORD, to deliver me: O LORD, make haste to help me. Let them be ashamed and confounded together that seek after my soul to destroy it; let them be driven backward and put to shame that wish me evil. Let them be desolate for a reward of their shame that say unto me, Aha, aha. Let all those that seek thee rejoice and be glad in thee: let such as love thy salvation say continually, The LORD be magnified. But I am poor and needy; yet the Lord thinketh upon me: thou art my help and my deliverer; make no tarrying, O my God.

Father God, I delight to do Your will and meditate on Your word. I am believing for You to multiply my desire for You, so that my life may be a testimony to Your light, love and grace. I thank You, praise You and give You al the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Good morning.

“Draw nigh to God, and He will draw nigh to you. James 4:8”

Thank You, dear Lord, for the gift of Your love, so freely given.
Please teach me how to give freely and joyfully to Your glory
in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

The Father Himself loves you dearly because you love Me {Jesus} and believe that I came from the Father into the world and will leave the world and return to the Father.” At last You are speaking plainly,” His disciples said, “and not riddles. Now we understand that You know everything and don’t need anyone to tell You anything. From this we believe that You came from God.” “Do you finally believe this?” Jesus asked.
“But the time is coming, in fact, it is here, when you will be scattered, each one returning to his own home, leaving Me (Jesus) alone. Yet I will not be alone, for the Father is with Me {Jesus}.
I have told you this so that you will have peace of heart and mind. Here on earth you will have many trials and sorrows; but cheer up, for I have overcome the world.”

{John 16:27-33}

Is Psalm 39 a lament? When it comes down to it, Psalm 39 is a lament psalm. But it’s a lament that was almost not given. David’s going to explain some realities that discouraged him from speaking truthfully about his problems. But then we’re going to see him overcoming that as he considers how temporary this life truly is.

Psalm Chapter 39:1-13
(1-3) David’s silent agony:
I said, I will take heed to my ways, that I sin not with my tongue: I will keep my mouth with a bridle, while the wicked is before me. I was dumb with silence, I held my peace, even from good; and my sorrow was stirred. My heart was hot within me, while I was musing the fire burned: then spoke I with my tongue,
(4-6) David’s wise words:
LORD, make me to know mine end, and the measure of my days, what it is: that I may know how frail I am. Behold, thou hast made my days as an handbreadth; and mine age is as nothing before thee: verily every man at his best state is altogether vanity. Selah. Surely every man walked in a vain shew: surely they are disquieted in vain: he heaped up riches, and knoweth not who shall gather them.
(7-11) Trusting God in a season of correction for sin:
And now, Lord, what wait I for? my hope is in thee. Deliver me from all my transgressions: make me not the reproach of the foolish. I was dumb, I opened not my mouth; because thou didst it. Remove thy stroke away from me: I am consumed by the blow of thine hand. When thou with rebukes dost correct man for iniquity, thou makest his beauty to consume away like a moth: surely every man is vanity. Selah.
(12-13) A humble prayer for restored favor and regained strength:
Hear my prayer, O LORD, and give ear unto my cry; hold not thy peace at my tears: for I am a stranger with thee, and a sojourner, as all my fathers were. O spare me, that I may recover strength, before I go hence, and be no more.

Father God, we know that there are many Drug addicts, alcoholics and other addictions of others that they abuse others both physically and emotionally and that many children are also placed in danger due to abuse from these addictions. Those who protect these abusers work on their heart and let them see the truth about the abuse. We know that such habits can often leave families with insufficient money to live on and people and children living in the street. Protect all those that are vulnerable from all forms of abuse, and convict hearts of such persons who harm them and their selves . Let them feel their shame of their lack of responsibilities of being loving, responsible and dependable . I believe that they will turn from their evil ways to turn to You Lord Jesus, knowing that only in You are the true freedom found. From experience a heart can weaken if there is no help for the abused. I thank You and praise You for guiding the right people in the abused persons life. Father God, guide all families that are in this position, safely. Keep a hedge of angels around them for protection. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

Heaven and earth shall pass away, but My words shall not pass away. Matthew 24:13
Help me, Lord, to remember that by thy word the Heavens and earth were formed and by Thy word we one day will awake in Your likeness. In Jesus Precious Name Amen.
For we know that when this tent we live in now is taken down, when we die and leave these bodies, we have a wonderful new home waiting for us up in Heaven, a home that will be ours forevermore, made for us by God Himself, and not by human hands. Amen! We know these things are true by believing, not by seeing. And we are not afraid, but are glad to be rid of these bodies, for then we will be at home with the Lord. Amen!
So our aim is to please Him always in everything we do, whether we are here in this body or away from this body and with Him in Heaven. For we must all stand before Jesus Christ to be judged. Each of us will receive the payment he deserves for the good or bad things he has done in these bodies here on earth. Whatever we do, it is certainly not for our own profit, but because Christ’s love controls us now. He died for all so that all who live , having received eternal life with Him, might live no longer for themselves, to please themselves, but to spend their lives pleasing Christ who died and rose again for them.
“2 Corinthians 5:1,7-10,14,15”
Thank You Lord for all the glorious things He does: proclaim them to the nations.
Psalm 105:1

{Today, won’t you take a stand for Christ. Pray about this: Say “Lord Jesus, come into my heart forgive me of all my sins! I want You to be my Lord and Savior from now on.” Then get into a church and get baptized where you will be dunked into Christs death and brought back up in new nest of life, Just as Christ did on that cross for you and I. Amen!
Have a wonderful day full of blessings.

Penitent: a person who repents their sins or wrongdoings and (in the Christian Church) seeks forgiveness from God.

We think that David wrote Psalm 38 while he was waiting for God to forgive him. David was very sad and very ill after Nathan came. David thought that this was because God was punishing him. What Psalm 38 means Verse 2:David wrote that God was like a soldier shooting arrows at him. The arrows were the bad things that God did to David. The dangers described in chapter 38 which threatened the very ongoing of God’s purposes for Israel are those which threaten to hinder the program of God through His church in our own day. And the same God who providentially overruled the sins of men to bring about the fulfillment of His purposes then is alive and well and unchanging this very hour. Nothing will disquiet the heart of a good man so much as the sense of God’s anger. The way to keep the heart quiet, is to keep ourselves in the love of God.
Psalm Chapter 38:1-22
LORD, rebuke me not in thy wrath: neither chasten me in thy hot displeasure. For thine arrows stick fast in me, and thy hand presseth me sore. There is no soundness in my flesh because of thine anger; neither is there any rest in my bones because of my sin. For mine iniquities are gone over mine head: as an heavy burden they are too heavy for me. My wounds stink and are corrupt because of my foolishness. I am troubled; I am bowed down greatly; I go mourning all the day long. For my loins are filled with a loathsome disease: and there is no soundness in my flesh. I am feeble and sore broken: I have roared by reason of the disquietness of my heart. Lord, all my desire is before thee; and my groaning is not hid from thee. My heart panteth, my strength faileth me: as for the light of mine eyes, it also is gone from me. My lovers and my friends stand aloof from my sore; and my kinsmen stand afar off. They also that seek after my life lay snares for me: and they that seek my hurt speak mischievous things, and imagine deceits all the day long. But I, as a deaf man, heard not; and I was as a dumb man that openeth not his mouth. Thus I was as a man that heareth not, and in whose mouth are no reproofs. For in thee, O LORD, do I hope: thou wilt hear, O Lord my God. For I said, Hear me, lest otherwise they should rejoice over me: when my foot slippeth, they magnify themselves against me. For I am ready to halt, and my sorrow is continually before me. For I will declare mine iniquity; I will be sorry for my sin. But mine enemies are lively, and they are strong: and they that hate me wrongfully are multiplied. They also that render evil for good are mine adversaries; because I follow the thing that good is. Forsake me not, O LORD: O my God, be not far from me. Make haste to help me, O Lord my salvation.

Father God, I pray that You will create in me a forgiving heart towards all those that have hurt me so deeply. Seems to linger in my mind like a nightmare. Knowing that the Lord Jesus forgave me my sins, I confess that I too should forgive others, just as You forgave me all my sin. Thank You and praise You that in You I have victory against all my sin. Fill me with Your perfect peace, for You have promised to keep all in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

The Lord knows how to deliver the godly out of temptations.
2 Peter 2:9
“Dear God, help me to withstand the temptation of self-righteousness, and all other temptations that keep me from knowing Your will. In Jesus Precious Name Amen”

Long ago God spoke in many different ways to our fathers through the prophets {In visions, dreams, and even face to face} telling them little by little about His plans. But now in these days He has spoken to us through His Son, to whom He has given everything and through whom He made the worlds and everything there is. God’s Son {Jesus} shines out with God’s glory, and all that God’s Son is and does marks Him as God. He holds up Heaven and earth by the mighty power of His command. He is the One Who died to cleanse us and clear our record of all sin, and then sat down in highest honor beside the great God of Heaven. Thus He became far greater than the angels, as proved by the fact that His Name “Son of God,” which was passed on to Him from His Father, is far greater than the names and titles of the angels. Amen.
Hebrews 1:1-4
May He be pleased by all these thoughts about Him, for He is the source of all my joy. Amen!
Psalm 104:34

Psalm Chapter 37:1-40

(1-2) Don’t worry about the ungodly:
Fret not thyself because of evildoers, neither be thou envious against the workers of iniquity. For they shall soon be cut down like the grass, and wither as the green herb.
(3-4) Put your trust and delight in the LORD:
Trust in the LORD, and do good; so shalt thou dwell in the land, and verily thou shalt be fed. Delight thyself also in the LORD: and he shall give thee the desires of thine heart.
(5-6) Trust God to protect and promote you:
Commit thy way unto the LORD; trust also in him; and he shall bring it to pass. And he shall bring forth thy righteousness as the light, and thy judgment as the noonday.
(7-8) Find rest in the God who deals with the wicked:
Rest in the LORD, and wait patiently for him: fret not thyself because of him who prospereth in his way, because of the man who bringeth wicked devices to pass. Cease from anger, and forsake wrath: fret not thyself in any wise to do evil.
(9-11) Trust that God will punish evildoers and reward the meek:
For evildoers shall be cut off: but those that wait upon the LORD, they shall inherit the earth. For yet a little while, and the wicked shall not be: yea, thou shalt diligently consider his place, and it shall not be. But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace.
(12-15) With a laugh, God defeats the wicked:
The wicked plotteth against the just, and gnasheth upon him with his teeth. The LORD shall laugh at him: for he seeth that his day is coming. The wicked have drawn out the sword, and have bent their bow, to cast down the poor and needy, and to slay such as be of upright conversation. Their sword shall enter into their own heart, and their bows shall be broken.
(16-17) God’s blessing upon the humble righteous:
A little that a righteous man hath is better than the riches of many wicked. For the arms of the wicked shall be broken: but the LORD upholdeth the righteous.
(18-20) The lasting good of the upright:
The LORD knoweth the days of the upright: and their inheritance shall be for ever. They shall not be ashamed in the evil time: and in the days of famine they shall be satisfied. But the wicked shall perish, and the enemies of the LORD shall be as the fat of lambs: they shall consume; into smoke shall they consume away.
(21-22) Blessing and cursing:
The wicked borroweth, and payeth not again: but the righteous sheweth mercy, and giveth. For such as be blessed of him shall inherit the earth; and they that be cursed of him shall be cut off.
(23-24) God’s guidance and support for the good man:
The steps of a good man are ordered by the LORD: and he delighteth in his way. Though he fall, he shall not be utterly cast down: for the LORD upholdeth him with his hand.
(25-26) A testimony of God’s blessing and care for the righteous:
I have been young, and now am old; yet have I not seen the righteous forsaken, nor his seed begging bread. He is ever merciful, and lendeth; and his seed is blessed.
(27-29) The promised reward for obedience:
Depart from evil, and do good; and dwell for evermore. For the LORD loveth judgment, and forsaketh not his saints; they are preserved for ever: but the seed of the wicked shall be cut off. The righteous shall inherit the land, and dwell therein for ever.
(30-31) The character of God’s righteous one:
The mouth of the righteous speaketh wisdom, and his tongue talketh of judgment. The law of his God is in his heart; none of his steps shall slide.
(32-33) The character and the response of the wicked:
The wicked watcheth the righteous, and seeketh to slay him. The LORD will not leave him in his hand, nor condemn him when he is judged.
(34-36) An exhortation to trust, based on testimony:
Wait on the LORD, and keep his way, and he shall exalt thee to inherit the land: when the wicked are cut off, thou shalt see it. I have seen the wicked in great power, and spreading himself like a green bay tree. Yet he passed away, and, lo, he was not: yea, I sought him, but he could not be found.
(37-38) An invitation to gain the same testimony:
Mark the perfect man, and behold the upright: for the end of that man is peace. But the transgressors shall be destroyed together: the end of the wicked shall be cut off.
(39-40) The reliable help and deliverance of the LORD:
But the salvation of the righteous is of the LORD: he is their strength in the time of trouble. And the LORD shall help them, and deliver them: he shall deliver them from the wicked, and save them, because they trust in him.

Lord Jesus, I know that You have a plan for my life which I can hinder when I seek to do stuff my way. Please, forgive me for the times that I have allowed the wicked ways of the ungodly to disturb my rest in You. Keep me from anxious thoughts and may my I learn to be still in Your presence, to rest in Your unfailing love and to wait patiently for You to take action, knowing that You work all things together for our benefit and for Your glory. I thank You, praise You and give You all the glory in Jesus Precious Name Amen.

A person who can’t talk, they learn to do sign language. Not everyone knows sign language. The person who can’t talk, in their heart they can pray for you. They can see that what ever situation you are going through. Then weeks later see that God answered their prayer they spoke in their heart for you. God can hear the heart. Amen! Like you see a person holding a sign on a street corner and you can’t get to them to help them. You pray for them and weeks later you see them working at a place of employment and you know you prayed for that person. What joy in knowing God answered this prayer. People look at you when you speak out loud to God, but don’t know who you are talking too. They’ll say: Look! That person is talking to themselves. When actually you are talking to God. With your mouth closed and you speak to God from your heart. He hears you. When the person who can’t talk needs someone to understand them and sign language or writing it down doesn’t help they look to God to fulfill their needs and God guides the answers for the solutions to their problem or situation. I know this all so well. Amen.
When we were created. God placed in each of us spirit. This is what makes us like God and unlike other creatures. When we surrender ourselves to God, our spirits come to life, and that spirit inside us bears witness that God, is who He says He is, That’s all the evidence we need. We don’t have to see with our eyes what we have seen with our hearts. Our hearts speak with gratitude, praise and supplication.

For even the Son of Man did not come to be served, but to serve, and to give his life as a ransom for many.” Then they came to Jericho. As Jesus and his disciples, together with a large crowd, were leaving the city, a blind man, Bartimaeus (which means “son of Timaeus”), was sitting by the roadside begging. When he heard that it was Jesus of Nazareth, he began to shout, “Jesus, Son of David, have mercy on me!” Many rebuked him and told him to be quiet, but he shouted all the more, “Son of David, have mercy on me!” Jesus stopped and said, “Call him.” So they called to the blind man, “Cheer up! On your feet! He’s calling you.” Throwing his cloak aside, he jumped to his feet and came to Jesus. “What do you want me to do for you?” Jesus asked him. The blind man said, “Rabbi, I want to see.” “Go,” said Jesus, “your faith has healed you.” Immediately he received his sight and followed Jesus along the road.
Mark 10:45-52

The LORD detests those whose hearts are perverse, but he delights in those whose ways are blameless.
Proverbs 11:20

We have this shih tzu. Her name is Molly we inherited her. Molly is 119 years old in dog years. 17 years old in human years. She is blind. She has pink skin for eyes. She is so funny, when I take her outside. She just like to go around in circles. She is not playful like other dogs. But she is happy being loved and well taken care of. She knows when I am close to her outside. When I am at my computer, she will lay down at my feet. Her spirit knows. She knows where her bed is and the door to get out and where her food and water is at. Molly is a blessing in my heart.
