We are not worthy to gather up the crumbs under His table and yet He is the God of all grace, abundant grace, multiplied grace, and He is the Father of all mercies, comfort, and peace.
May God's abundant grace and incomprehensible peace continue to be multiplied towards all His children as we seek to act justly, to love mercy, and to walk in humble submission before Him all the days of our life, in love.

There may be times we wished we had lived in the days of the apostles and SEEN the Lord with our own eyes, and felt His gentle touch, but how blessed are we who have not seen Him in the physical realm but have SEEN Him with the spiritual eye of faith and are still able to cry as Thomas did, "my Lord, and my God."

These words of Isaiah were indeed good tidings of great joy to the little, faithful remnant of Israel, but they are words of great comfort and succour to all who are weary and heavy~laden, both Jew and Gentile alike, for He sent Jesus to be the good Shepherd of the sheep, the Door of the sheepfold, the Way, the Truth, the Life, and the Light to all who would trust in His name for the forgiveness of sins and life everlasting. Praise His holy name.

Trials are just a reminder that we are on an ugly battlefield in a momentous cause with eternal consequences.

I find it amazing that many who profess to believe in Jesus don't take Genesis or Revelation literally. If Christ's work on the cross doesn't save us from a literal fall and literal coming judgment, then it doesn't save us from anything.

Let us take a moment to consider the importance of our praise for God. We are called to glorify Him and to speak His praises continually. May we take every opportunity to give Him the praise and worship He deserves, for He is the source of all good things. Let us also give thanks for the great gift of our Lord Jesus Christ, for He and He alone is the One Who makes our relationship with God possible. He is our Sovereign Lord Who has given us the ultimate example of love and sacrifice. Let us always remember to give Him the praise, honour, glory, and blessing He deserves: "To Him be glory and dominion forever and ever. Amen."

Your first duty is not doing the will of the Lord but knowing it. You can't do the will of God unless you know it. You can't know it apart from spending time in his word, not as a mere devotional or religious exercise, but as the passion of a heart that burns to know the Lord, his word, and his will.

True peace can only be found in a relationship with Jesus. He is our source of strength and courage. Let us cling to Him, seek His counsel, and trust Him to lead us in the paths of righteousness. Through Him, we can have true and lasting peace, no matter what storms may come our way.

God is eternal. He is the first and the last, and He is without beginning or ending. He is the genesis of all that is and He is the revelation of all that ever will be. He is sufficient in Himself and needs neither man nor angels to find completeness. He existed in sublime glory and exists in great majesty. In Himself, He is self~sufficient, self~sustaining, and entirely complete. And yet, for the love of you and the love of me, Jesus stepped out of eternity in order to be born as a baby and to die on the Cross as the Saviour of mankind. Hallelujah! What a Saviour!

Believing the Bible is trusting the statements of Scripture at face value, using the normal rules of interpretation that we use for all literature. Yes, the Bible has amazing types and shadows, amazing number patterns, sometimes a layer or two of deeper implications or broader applications, BUT such things don't change the way we interpret the Bible. They are merely enhancement and authentication. The Bible was written with common diction, common grammar, common use of figures, and it must be interpreted with common diction, common grammar, and common figures. Any approach that comes with unique allegorical methods for interpretation must be rejected. It doesn't deserve two seconds of consideration. The allegorical method is a categorical rejection of God's future plans for mankind.

Let us glory in that wonderful name of JESUS and resist the deceit of the world, the lusts of the flesh, and the wiles of the enemy, by keeping the eyes of our heart fixed upon Him and the ears of our understanding ever open to His still small voice. We are saved... spirit, soul, and body, when we believe on Christ. We are saved once and forever when we trust in Him, "for there is no other name under heaven that has been given among men by which we must be saved."

"Made to be taken" is pure Bible. "Made to be grilled" is my paraphrase.

As the time for His departure drew ever closer, Jesus said to His disciples: "Peace be with you; as the Father has sent Me, I also send you." In the same way that Jesus was sent by His Father to preach the gospel of God to a lost and dying world, so we also are sent by Jesus to preach the gospel of Christ to a lost and dying world: "That whosoever believes in Him would not perish but have everlasting life."

Requesting prayer. We have a serious leak problem in our roof. We have water dripping through in a couple dozen places upstairs (so my studio is unusable at present), and it is dripping through the outside walls downstairs on windowsills.

Update on the roof. Further investigation reveals that it probably isn't a roof leak but actually frost and condensation in the tiny crawlspace attic. Apparently the ventilation system isn't working very well.
