Hello Family pray with me today,
Oh Heavenly Father thanks be given to You for all our
blessings on this day. Teach us Father to
be more in the image You expect to see us, in Your image. Father we pray for great things on this day
and may You continue to bless our efforts and the efforts of all who stand
before you. Father Jesus has taught us
through His actions that Your eyes are upon each of us no matter our walk. There is great solace in that and I pray
those who seem so capable of evil will begin to see the good that You bring
before us. Father I pray for healing of
the sick and injured, that Your hands guide medical staff in directions that
You are best, that Your arms provide a protective wall around each of us to
keep us from harm’s way. Be the light
Father to guide our paths and urge us in the right directions to better do your
bidding. Help us Father to bring the
right words to those who seek salvation and may You open their eyes through
each of us that can share our knowledge with them, knowing it is Your words
that come forth. Give us strength in
these words and provide courage to make that step forward to help our brothers
and sisters. These prayers we bring to
You in the name of Christ Jesus…..AMEN.
Welcome again Family has anyone paid attention to the idea
that as we get older time seems to speed up?
I just spent 4 and half days in the hospital with pneumonia and it seems
like such a whirlwind, that so much has transpired in those few days. It seems like only yesterday we were sitting
down to a Thanksgiving meal….what gives are we becoming time travels. No of course not, but time seems compressed,
maybe it has to do with how busy we are and we look up and it’s already lunch
time, or the weekend is almost over. I
saw someone post this weekend, “they never looked forward to Monday’s until
they met Frank26….a good deal of truth in that for most of us I think. We have to definitely pay attention or things
zoom right past us and leave us wondering and suddenly uninformed.
Changing gears now…..did you know or realize that at one
time the Hebrew language was considered dead…yes as an everyday language it was
at one point non-existent…..but then it was resurrected. How it came back into modern usage is quite
incredible. The founder of Hebrew as we
know it today was a man named, Eliezer Ben-Yehuda. In his mind he felt the best way to revive
the language was to start teaching to the children, school-aged children who
then took the language home to their parents and taught them. This was all done solely in Israel.
The lesson or take-away from this comes from Jesus who tells
us, “unless you are changed and become like little children….you cannot enter
the Kingdom of Heaven. Profound words
indeed that He shared with us and what a wonderful example to follow.
So as we learn to speak the language of Heaven, we must each
take the time to realize the importance how a child would learn and we must
follow that example. Our young children
are open, believing, humble, lighthearted and they typically have no worries or
concerns about the cares of the world.
Exactly how those walking into God’s Kingdom should walk.
We must learn to trust in the Father and that no matter how
huge the world issues of today may seem….they aren’t in His hands….He is merely
asking us to trust as a child would and put that trust in Him leaving those
earthly concerns and issues behind.
And he said: "Truly I tell you, unless you change and
become like little children, you will never enter the kingdom of heaven. Matthew 18:3.
Go in Peace
Blessings to you all
Aloha
Randy
