God Is Great

Great is the Lord, and greatly to be praise;
And His greatness is unsearchable.
One generation shall praise Your works to another,
And shall declare Your mighty acts
And I will declare Your greatness.
They shall utter the memory of Your great goodness,
And shall sing of Your righteousness.
The Lord is gracious and full of compassion,
Slow to anger and great in mercy.
The Lord is good to all,
And His tender mercies are over all His works.
                   Psalm 145:3-9

In this Psalm, David is talking about the goodness and mercy of God. Personally, I know God is good and He is good all the time. Even though, I am not all I should be, God is still merciful. God's mercy continues to endure throughout the world. He is merciful to all His divine creations, no matter who, He has shown mercy. Today, embrace God's goodness into your lives!

Jesus Is My Rock

They gather together against the life of the righteousness,
And condemn innocent blood,
But the Lord has been my defense,  And my God the rock
   of my refuge.
He has brought on them their own iniquity,
And shall cut them off in their own wickedness;
The Lord our God shall cut them off.
                 Psalm 94:21-23

The bible says, we should love our enemies: pray for those that mistreat us. How can we do that some may ask? When Christ lives in you, you may do all things through Him that gives you strength. Jesus will give you the strength to love your enemies. He want us to express mercy with others, as He has also shown mercy toward us. Let us continue to focus on the big picture; the earth belongs to God and everything that was made is because of God. Children of God, we don't have to walk around with our head hanging down. because God said, 'soon the wicked shall be cut off.'

Don't Give Up

Do not be deceived, God is not mocked; for whatever a man sows, that he will also reap.
For he who sows to the flesh reap corruption, but he who sows to the Spirit will of the Spirit reap everlasting life.
And let us not grow weary while doing good to all, for in due season we shall reap if we do not lose heart.
Therefore, as we have opportunity, let us do good to all, especially to those who are the household of faith. Galatians 6:6-10

When you feel like giving up, call Jesus, He will answer. For He is merciful, He continues to knock at the door of many hearts around the world. As believers, we lean, depend, on Jesus when everything else around seem to falling apart. God is there through the good and the bad situations. Hold on to His unchanging hand and don't give up!

An Awesome God

Bless the Lord. O my soul!
O Lord my God, You are very great;
You are clothed with honor and majesty,
Who cover Yourself with light as with
   a garment,
Who stretch out the heavens like a curtain.
 He lays the beams of His upper chambers
   in the waters,
Who makes the clouds His chariot,
Who walks on the wings of the wind,
Who makes the angels spirits,
His ministers a flame of fire.
             Psalm 104

Rejected

The Jews then complained about Him, because He said, "I am the bread which came down from heaven." And they said,"Is not this Jesus, the son of Joseph, whose father and mother we know? How is it then that He says, 'I have come down from heaven?" Jesus therefore answered and said to them,"Do not murmur among among yourselves. No one can come to Me unless the Father who sent Me draws him; and I will raise him up at the last day.    John 6:41-44
Jesus is saying in this chapter; He is the living bread that came down from heaven that whom ever eats this bread will live eternally. Many did not believe Him, because they knew Him as the Son of Joseph and Mary. But they really didn't know Him; if they had known Him personally, they probably would not have denied Him.

Thankful

My brethen, count it all joy when you fall into various trials, knowing that the testing of your faith produces patience. But let the patience have its perfect work, that you may be perfect and complete lacking nothing. If you lacks wisdom, let him ask of God, who gives to all liberally and without reproach, and it will be given to him. James 1:2-6
God never said, in His words that we would not have trials in our lives. But He did say, "I am with you even until the end of the earth." Knowing that God, is with us through it all, is enough to be grateful and thankful to the Creator of all things. I thank God for my trials, knowing that the trials in life makes me strong. I am also thankful for patience, God has allowed me to express with others and in many situations. It is by faith, I can do all things through Christ that gives me strength.

Hope In the Lord

Praise the Lord!
Praise the Lord, O my soul!
While I live I will praise the
    Lord;
I will sing praises to my God
    while I have my being.
Do not put your trust in
    princes,
Nor in the son of man, in whom
    there is no help,
His spirit departs, he returns to
    his earth;
In that very day his plans perish.
Psalm 146:1-5
