We just have to forgive him Betty, and pray for him, it hurts all of us that he says such things about your gift to all of us who read and enjoy your blog. Sometimes people say or do things that cause hurt, hubs is not mindful of his thoughts or words, we'll all pray and keep praying for him to not be so influenced by his friends or what the enemy whispers , and you just keep on listening to the Holy Spirit so we can keep being blessed dear sisterThank you so much. My husband says my blog is a waste of time.

Betty of all the things that happened over the last few months, the one that hurt the worst was not being able to come in and read what you posted, take it to heart, and really hear the Holy Spirit encourage me thru your faithful words.I appreciate all the encouragement. My husband says that my blog is a waste of time and I do not need to read the Bible anymore because I have already read it. I believe it is his dementia talking, but it still hurts my feelings.

Happy Thursday,
What Would Jesus Think?
Years ago it was popular to wear bracelets with WWJD on them. I think we should be more concerned about what would Jesus thinks about what we say and do.
I used to put a lot of stock in what people thought of me. I often spent hours after a gathering going over in my head about what I had said. Then I gave up being a people-pleaser and thought I would just do my best and not worry.
Now I am beginning to think we are better off if we become Jesus-pleasers. Seeking to say and do what would please Jesus. We should do our best to honor God in all that we say and do. God’s opinion of our lives should be the most important thing in our lives. May we honor God in all that we do and say!
Pray for Israel!
Maranatha,

Colossians 1:10
so that you will walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, to please Him in all respects, bearing fruit in every good work and increasing in the knowledge of God;
1 John 3:22 - And whatsoever we ask, we receive of him, because we keep his commandments, and do those things that are pleasing in his sight.
Romans 12:2 - And be not conformed to this world: but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind, that ye may prove what is that good, and acceptable, and perfect, will of God.
Romans 12:1-2 - I beseech you therefore, brethren, by the mercies of God, that ye present your bodies a living sacrifice, holy, acceptable unto God, which is your reasonable service.
Psalms 19:14 - Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart, be acceptable in thy sight, O LORD, my strength, and my redeemer.
Mark 12:33 - And to love him with all the heart, and with all the understanding, and with all the soul, and with all the strength, and to love his neighbour as himself, is more than all whole burnt offerings and sacrifices.
Amen, another good post sister.We cannot always rejoice in our circumstances but we are called to trust God in all circumstances.
That is such an amazing thought that we bring pleasure to God our Father. Thank you as always Betty!December 8, 2023
Happy Friday,
Giving God Pleasure
Psalm 147:11
New King James Version
11 The Lord takes pleasure in those who fear Him,
In those who hope in His mercy.
How marvelous it is to know we are giving pleasure to our Heavenly Father. God gives everything to us including the breath we breathe. We have infirmities and our daily struggles, yet we know God is always with us.
We are not always as grateful to God as we should be. This is something we need to work on. Let us offer up praises to God daily and seek to do His will.
Pray for America. Pray for Israel. Pray for lost souls.
Maranatha,
Betty
