Scripture for Saturday

Galatians 6:2 (AMP)

² Carry one another burdens and in this way you will fulfil the requirements of the law of Christ [that is, the law of Christian love].

I want to encourage you today, to be there in a crisis for your friends and family. I know that it's important to just have someone contacting me. I feel they actually care about me and that I am important to them. I find when speaking to my husband for example he makes eye contact and actually listens to what I am saying. That is such a comfort to me. 

Sometimes life just seems to be bent out of proportion and I just feel anxious and all alone. I normally withdraw but one person that I can rely on is my husband. He has a calming way about him and always tries to reassure me things will be fine.  Reminding me that there is always a way to sort this situation out.

I am constantly reminded to focus on real issues, and not think of "what if" they aren't in play.

Scripture for Wednesday - I want to be the person God is looking for.

I want to be the person God is looking for.

2 Chronicles 16: 9 (AMP)

For the eyes of the Lord move to and fro throughout the earth so that He may support those whose heart is completely His. You have acted foolishly in this; therefore, from now on you will have wars.”

Without the Lord Jesus, I feel my life isn't worth living. I feel alone and depressed when I cannot speak to the Lord, I cannot imagine going forward without Him.

Prayer: Our Lord, heavenly Father, in the name of Your Son, Jesus Christ I humbly come to You this morning, Lord more than anything I come asking to be the person You are looking for today. Lord I need guidance and I need You to show me the way forward. Lord shape me into the person who loves others, obeys Your Word and truly knows who You are. In the name of Jesus Christ, Amen

Scripture for Sunday - Mothers day

1 Corinthians 10:13 (AMP)

¹³ No temptation [regardless of its source] has overtaken or enticed you that is not common to human experience [nor is any temptation unusual or beyond human resistance], but God is faithful [to His word—He is compassionate and trustworthy], and He will not let you be tempted beyond your ability [to resist], but along with the temptation He [has in the past and is now and] will [always] provide the way out as well, so that you will be able to endure it [without yielding, and will overcome temptation with joy].

Romans 8:28 (AMP)

²⁸ And we know [with great confidence] that God [who is deeply concerned about us] causes all things to work together [as a plan] for good for those who love God, to those who are called according to His plan and purpose. 

Scripture for Friday

Daniel 6:26 (AMP)

I issue a decree that in all the dominion of my kingdom men are to [reverently] fear and tremble before the God of Daniel,

And His dominion will be forever.

Friday thoughts

Luke 22: 27

"who is greater, he who sits at the table, or he who serves?"

To serve people isn't always easy,

I find you start feeling like a servant.

But to grow spiritually

I feel that I need to be of service to my fellow friend

God has been so good to me

I am able to bake cakes

decorating them according to the spec

My service to my friends

is important to me.

I am grateful that I can bake cakes

Being of service to others.

God is in control and always making a way for me.

As I think of the weekend ahead of me

I know I need to be of service to others

I need to consider other peoples needs above my own

Lord Jesus, please 

bless each person reading this message

give them the necessary

wisdom and understanding 

and let us be of service

to others. 

in Your holy name

Jesus, Amen
