Excellent Food
John 4: verse 34
“My Food” said Jesus,
“is to do the will of Him who sent me and to finish His work”
*****
This is what we need to say as well,
that our food is truly our work for God.
When we work for God we feel content and filled with goodness.
Let us try to finish the work that He wants us to do,
so that we shall feel fed with Heavenly food.

Well we all like excellent food……so apart from our Bible reading, it is nice to choose something nice to eat.
We are very fortunate that we can choose something for Breakfast, Lunch and Dinner. I do like my hot dinner at night because of working during the day, then it is good to sit down to something nice to eat. Maybe you like to do the same. Our body needs nurishment as well as our spirit, so we can eat and enjoy what The Lord supplies for our meals each day.

Compassion!
The above is a lovely arrangement of Flowers for an Art Exhibition that I had.

Isaiah: Chapter 30 verse 18
Yet The LORD longs to be gracious to you;
He rises to show you compassion.
For The LORD is a God of justice.
Blessed are all who wait for Him!
*****
Thank you LORD that you are a God of compassion, please continue to have compassion on me and my family, especially today. Thank you for all your blessings to me. Amen.

Have you ever thought what the word compassion means? I looked it up and it says: to be sympathetic towards others when they are suffering from anything. Then to help them if you can.
In other words I believe it means to show Christian love towards that person whoever it is who maybe sad or lonely. Just a smile or a kind word may be all they need at the time. That really is showing compassion towards them. You may not need to do anything else at the time but what a blessing it can be to show someone that you care about how they are feeling.
Also we can pray for others – that God will bless them.
This next book is helpful and has prayers for different situations that you can use. You may like to look at the link which will tell you more about it. Also it is available from the Amazon site.
I pray that you have a good day today and that our Heavenly Father will have compassion on you, your family and love ones, also for me and mine.
God Bless you.
Do we Sin?
The Eagle is from one of my Oil Paintings
1 John: Chapter 1 verse 2
Only The Blood of Jesus Purifies us from sin.
(The Bible tells us this)
***
This is true, remember Jesus died on the cross for us as a sacrifice for our sin.
We were born as sinful, into a sinful world.
When we accept Jesus into our hearts we are washed clean of sin by is blood.
We are then new creatures, we are born again of the Spirit.
Then although tempted we need never sin,
it does not have to have dominion over us.
***
The above is taken from the Book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by J.M.R. Larman.
Do you ever think about sin? We do things without thinking sometimes not realizing that it is something that we should not do. When in doubt if it is right or wrong to do something, a good way to work it out is to say to our self (What would Jesus do?). If we are walking with The Holy Spirit – He will help guide us if we ask Him.
Even our thoughts can be sinful, so we need to guard our mind and get rid of those wrong thoughts as quickly as we can. Maybe put our mind on to something different or we could put some music on. But try as best as we can to think more clearly.
Fleeting thoughts come and go, quickly they fade away.
Like a whisper they are gone like a breath of air.
Quickly some come, then are gone.
Some never to come again. Thoughts are words,
Words from the heart, thoughts from our minds.
We cannot snatch them back.

Love
This Flower we call Morning Glory…… the Flowers look like lovely Trumpets, have you ever felt the petals they are so soft to touch.
***
Jude: verse 21.
Keep yourselves in God’s love
as you wait for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ
to bring you to eternal life.
***
What about today then,
are we really keeping ourselves in God’s love.
Can we show that love of Jesus to someone today – just a small act of kindness,
even a smile to someone will show God that we are waiting in His Love.

Remember God is the God of Love – He will be happy to hear from you today because He Loves You ……… as well as me.
Have a Lovely Day today walking in the Love of God.
It is nice to be Righteous !
Psalm: 58 verse 11
Then men will say,
‘Surely the righteous will are rewarded,
surely there is a God who judges the earth’
***
Because God says that we shall be rewarded, then we know that He will reward us for sure. However, we do need to be righteous, we cannot expect rewards for nothing. God blesses us with all good things. How He will surely reward us when we become even more righteous. I think we ought to make a special effort today to live a good life because God is our judge, who gives according to His will.
***
The above is taken rom the Book: ‘Drink rom the Cup’
Isaiah 61:3 … Talks out the trees of righteousness the Planting of The Lord. You may like to read about that sometime.
So how are we going today to be righteous then……. we should try to be free from guilt or sin. We all know that is not easy when we have so many things during each day to deal with. Sometimes we get frustrated and cross, the Bible says in your anger do not sin….
Best think of something nice that we can do today for The Lord of for someone in our family or for maybe for a friend.
One of the nicest things we can do is to pray….. it is good to pray for our family and friends but what about our Town or place that we live in. Surely that would be a righteous thing to do as we go about our daily life. Also to pray for those less fortunate than ourselves, there are so many things to pray about.
*****
I hope you have a lovely righteous day today.
God Bless You for reading my Blog – please feel free to pass it on to your Christian friends.

Ripple on a Pond.
The above is one of my Oil Paintings…..yes it has a pond on it so thought it would good on here.
Job: Chapter 1 – verse 21.
“Naked I came from my mothers’ womb and naked I shall depart.
The Lord gave and The LORD has taken away:
may the name of The LORD be praised”
***
The above was said by Job and it is true, naked we came into this world and naked we shall leave it. So while we are here let us bless those around us as best we can especially our family. Let us see them enjoy some of the assets we would eventually leave them when we die by giving now while we are alive. Let us share in their enjoyment. Maybe it could be just a special little heirloom we are saving for them, or, maybe finance we are saving for them. If they are in need as some young families are, let us be gracious and try to help. Today let us remember – we cannot take anything with us when we go, that also includes our love. let them know you love them. Our families do need our love more than maybe they or we realize. The LORD surely blesses us as we bless others.
Today let us think on our nakedness before The LORD.

Here is the Poem that I wrote about being a Ripple on a Pond…
Are You a Ripple on a Pond. ?
Are you a Ripple on a Pond?
Do you see what I see? Can you pray for those who cannot pray?
Will you pray for those who cannot see? Are you a Ripple on a Pond.?
Like a pebble thrown into the middle, our prayers can go out and around
in a never ending and expanding circle. Are you a ripple on a pond?
Do you see beyond the horizon? Will your words or works reach out
in that never ending circle of prayer? I pray I am a Ripple on a Pond.
My prayers going forth throughout the world, for those lost souls to be gathered in
and for everyone of them to be cleansed from sin.
Do try to be a Ripple, even starting with a trickle, of prayer and praise.
Like a pebble creating waves on a Pond, may your Prayers go forward even beyond.
So are you a Ripple on a Pond?
With prayers, reach far beyond all that you see. Look and use your spiritual eyes for Jesus.
Do something for Him that really, really pleases.
