Should we Grumble ?

Exodus: Chapter 16 verse 9
Then Moses told Aaron,
“Say to the entire Israelite community,
‘ Come before The LORD,
for He has heard your grumbling.’ “
*****
Even today do you know that The LORD can hear our grumbling? Yes He can! Let us try to get through the day without a grumble. Well, we can try and with the help of The Holy spirit – we could hopefully make it!

Sometimes we seem to grumble a lot, especially when things don’t go right for us. Or when we don’t agree with our brothers, sisters, family and friends. It is difficult not to grumble when we are upset about something. But – if we can stop and think to Praise The Lord and ask Him to sort the problem out for us, it would make more sense than complaining about whatever the problem was or is.
No I am not that clever to think to ask The Lord for help sometimes when something does not go right as I think it should. Then after a time if we carry on with our grumbling, we need to repent and ask to be forgiven for what we have been grumbling about. Just think – when we are grumbling we do not have the Peace of the Lord do we? So the sooner we can stop complaining, make a cup of tea or do something nice we will feel better.

Here is the Link for the book “Godly Verses” ………… https://rb.gy/ey3il
It is a very nice book of about 60 Poems, Verses etc., with Illustrations. I especially like the one about ‘ The Clown’ also many of them give us food for thought to Praise The Lord.
Here are extra Links for you:

The Book of Prayers is a help for new Christians (and some of us older ones) to pray different prayers when we get stuck for what to pray for. I am hoping it may help someone to use during their Prayer time.
I hope you have a good day today
and the peace of The Lord
be with you in the coming days.

A Wise Heart!
This is an Oil Painting that I did of an Outback House on a Sheep Station in Carnarvon. Western Australia.

Proverbs: Chapter 10 verse 8.
The wise in heart accepts commands
but a chattering fool comes to ruin.
***
Oh! God let us not be chattering fools today,
let us try to be wise in our hearts and our speaking. Amen.

Here is the Link if you would like to see it:
The Psalm above lets us know that we should really watch what we say, also how we say it. Also we should not chatter on when someone is trying to speak. We should listen to hear what they say also allow them to finish talking before we answer them.
Remember – out of the heart the mouth speaks –
Let us try to not chatter on and on when we need to tell someone something, then they will be more interested to hear what we have to say.
Yes, we need wisdom sometimes to say what is in our heart, because once spoken we cannot take the words back.
May God Bless you – Have a nice Day Today….
Our Treasures*
Proverbs: Chapter 10 verse 2
Ill-gotten treasurers are of no value
but righteousness delivers from death.
*
That is true isn’t it? If we have something that we have received wrongly, however much we treasure it we will still have that feeling of guilt i.e. that it is an ill-gotten thing.
We really can’t take anything that we know God does not want us to have.
What a release in our spirit we feel when we give back or release those wrong Treasures.
Jesus forgives and we are back in righteousness, delivered from the feeling of death and can rejoice in our righteousness. Praise The Lord!

The above is taken from the Book: ‘Drink from the Cup’ by. J.M.R. Larman.
So what wonderful Treasures do we have that maybe we should not have? Perhaps they could be some ungodly Books, or ungodly D.V.D’s maybe C.D’s
What about all the Treasures on our Computers? Could be Treasure’s of ungodly photo’s – hidden in a file for privacy. But God can see all things whether they be righteous or unrighteous.
Let us search our hearts and get rid of all that is not O.K.
We don’t have to ask or tell anyone about it – just do it – ask Jesus for forgiveness – feel the release in our spirit and get on with life as it should be lived in Righteousness and Truth.
It is a lovely feeling to be able to share the Love of The Lord when we are really walking in a bit more holiness.

Do you Sing?
Psalm: 101 verse 1
I will sing of Your love and Justice;
To You, O LORD, I will sing praise.
***
It is lovely to sing praises to The LORD our God and to Jesus.
Have you ever asked The Holy Spirit to help you sing?
He is so lovely, I believe He loves to hear us singing.
Even quietly in our own prayer time we can ask The Holy Spirit to be with our singing.
So today maybe put some music on that you like to listen to – with one of your favourite people singing and then hopefully sing along with them while working around the house. It is amazing what singing can do for you, especially if you feel a bit down about things. Also if you are feeling happy put some happy music on.
The other thing to do sometimes is to put some Christian Songs on and sing- along with them and enjoy your day.
The Link above you may like to look at. It is a book of daily readings that can be used year after year as it is not dated just for one year. The Lord has already blessed some people with the daily readings you never know what the Word of the Lord can be for you each day.
I Pray that you have a lovely Day today.

Celebrate Today
Matthew: Chapter 1 verse 21.
She will give birth to a son and you are to give him the name Jesus, because he will save his people from their sins.
***
I am so glad that Mary was obedient, because if she had not given birth to Jesus where would you and I be today? It does not bear to think about it! Praise God today for the birth of Jesus who also was obedient to our Heavenly Father to the extent of dying on The Cross for yours and my sins. I Praise you Heavenly Father that You allowed Your only Son Jesus to come to earth to save us from certain death. Thank You that we choose 25th. December to celebrate the Birth of Jesus Christ our Lord being born on this earth. Amen.
