Habits

What lies beneath the surface will eventually find its way out into the open; habits  determine  outcomes

Robe of Salvation

God stands at the gate like the gather of the prodigal  son waiting  for us to come to ourselves and  return to  him; to be draped  in his robe of righteousness…

Because salvation is by faith and not by works—including works of the law—some Christians claim that the law is done away with and that we no longer have to keep it. Of course, considering that the law itself is what defines sin—“I would not have known sin except through the law” (Rom. 7:7 NKJV)—this claim is a gross misinterpretation of the relationship of the law to the gospel. The existence of the law is precisely why we need the gospel.

God’s  Grace

We can not out sin God’s grace.

Isaiah 61:10-11 MSG [10-11] I will sing for joy in God, explode in praise from deep in my soul! He dressed me up in a suit of salvation, he outfitted me in a robe of righteousness, As a bridegroom who puts on a tuxedo and a bride a jeweled tiara. For as the earth bursts with spring wildflowers, and as a garden cascades with blossoms, So the Master, God, brings righteousness into full bloom and puts praise on display before the nations. https://bible.com/bible/97/isa.61.10-11.MSG

Diversity

What do you love about where you live?

As a child I lived in the Mississippi  Delta for headstart; while I saw people of other cultures there was not much interaction.After a well lived life. I have returned to North  MS as a disabled adult. And I  am pleased  surprised  to see various  cultures  living among one another with minimal  prejudice

I am a Child of God

Have we looked past what we hoped to see in a Creator and stopped and looked at Jesus? Jesus came as a servant, as a humble man and One willing to be ignored by His creation. When we get past that, we acknowledge Him and receive Him – and God makes us His child

Joy Comes Daily

I thought of you when I read this quote from “The Daily Proverbs: 365 Devotional Sayings on How to Live a Better Life” by R.W. Reese –

““My child, if your heart is wise, my own heart will rejoice!” Proverbs 23:15 God doesn’t ask us to follow His ways because He is strict, cruel, or wants to feed His own ego. God wants us to live righteously because He knows the many benefits it will bring to us. He wants us to live joyful, peaceful, and prosperous lives through Him. He knows that kind of life comes through wisdom, so when our hearts are wise, it brings Him genuine joy and He rejoices in us! He always wants what is best for us even if it may not feel like it sometimes. Fill your heart with His love and continue to practice spiritual faith daily.”
