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. 

US OF LITTLE FAITH

DAY 11 MARK 3-4-5

S: Mark 5:25-34

O: a woman is bleeding and has been for 12 years. She has spent every single thing she had on the hopes that a doctor, ANY doctor could heal her. She hears of Jesus and knows the stories of healing. She is miserable and knows in her heart of hearts that she doesn't even need to bother Him, but just needs to touch his cloak.But her faith in it is so strong that Jesus feels the power she has taken from Him. Even though he was in a large crowd He felt it. 

A: In these days we go to doctors and spend all we have on cures that are band aids. Things that don't always seem to help only cover up our symptoms. We all need to believe and have that woman's faith. We can touch His cloak every single day, by reading His word. We are all of such little faith. We let the evil thoughts enter in and won't let our faith grow. We let the fears of worldly things put an overcast on our lives. 

P: Today Lord I pray for the unhealthy people in my life. I pray for miraculous healing over each and every one of them. I ask that they be given a sense of peace over them tonight and I ask that my faith in your healing be enough to strengthen them and heal them completely. Thank you Jesus in your heavenly name, Amen!

I realize when you are knee deep in pain it is very hard to have faith in healing, at the moment you feel like it will never end. So I pray that when whoever may read this, they will think of some people who might not have the faith or strength to help themselves and that you pray and truly believe in the healing powers of Jesus. :)

Learn From The Past

Day 10 November 2, 2012

Learn From The Past

S: Matthew 28: 1-8

O: Jesus had died and was buried then when the Mary's go to visit Him the earth quakes, the guards look dead from fear, the MASSIVE stone is rolled away, a very, very, very MASSIVE stone, 

I might add, and an angle of the Lord looking like a bolt of bright lightening is chillen on the top of the stone. 

Then the Mary's walk away to do as they were told by this angle and run into Jesus, the dead guy they were going to see. WOW! What a day and the sun just had come up! 

A: My friend Patty and I were talking today and now I truly understand our conversation. God puts us in places to help us learn and He did not disappoint today! 

Sometimes I make it a big deal when I don't have a good hair day! We have let the minor little problems become our whole LIVES. If we look back on what it was like to be a Christian then and now, ummm I choose NOW!. I have to apply the past to my life so I can move forward to where God is leading me. 

P: Lord I humbly ask you to show me issues from the Bible that make my issues look small. I ask you to keep my heart wide open to all of your teachings in my life. I want to do the best I can for you. In your Precious name, Amen.
