Do Not Judge

Have you ever felt like EVERYONE is judging you? Oh I have.....but we have to remember God is our Judge and Jesus is our witness....His blood covers our sins! 

Luke 5, 6, and 7

S: Luke 6:37-42

O: Jesus is telling them not to judge others, not to condemn them. We look at our friends and families sin but forget we too have sin.

A: Wow! So I know that this has not changed in ALL the years since Jesus preached it! We as people try to ignore our own sins and try to "fix" others sins. It is NOT our job to fix them but to guide them and then Jesus will fix them! We are not to look at their sin until we have examined our own. 

P: Lord today I ask that you help me have a kind heart and therefore kind words will flow from my heart. I want to be all about Your business, not my own. Thank You for loving me when I Never have deserved it :) 

You are my ROCK in which I want to build my life! 

A Road Worth Traveling

A ROAD WORTH TRAVELING

Directions to Emmaus, Abu Ghosh, Israel

16.3 km – about 3 hours 30 mins 

(10 MILES)

FROM Jerusalem, Israel‎

S:Luke 24:13-33

O: The Mary's had found the tomb empty and ran back and 

told the 11 what had happened and they all thought they were

losing it. 2 of the 11 took off toward Emmaus. They were 

discussing what had happened over the course of the last few 

days. Without reveling himself Jesus starts to walk with 

them. and asks them some questions. 

A:Do we know when Jesus shows up while we are traveling 

through this life? Are we paying attention to Him or are we to 

wrapped up in our day to day lives, and do not hear His 

words to us? 

P:Jesus I thank you for talking to me and being patient with 

me. I have to be hard to deal with at times because of my 

stubborn and sinful nature. Please open my heart and mind 

to be able to Hear MORE and learn more so I can help others 

to see your light! 

Pick Up Your Cross

Day 12 of 30 Days to read the Gospels

         So today I realized that some days you gotta read the passage yourself and take away from it what you need out of it at the moment. Because my understanding won't be even close to yours. Or you may not be ready to understand it fully. It depends on how far you are in your walk with Jesus. I am getting to the point that I am understanding more and more of what Jesus wants us to do in His name. It is not always pleasant and pretty....It isn't all Lovey Dovey..... sometimes, people who stand up for Jesus die and become a martyr for Jesus, one of the passages I read today reminded me of that. 
Mark 8:34-35

           It is one thing to hear the stories and feel sad for these people, but these people died doing something they loved and something they believed in. It makes me look at those who are martyr's in a whole new way. I do not feel as sad, but amazed at the faith they had. 

           I hope you can get a deep meaning and it helps you in whatever struggles you are facing today.
