ABUNDANCE OF GRACE

“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God!  And that is what we are!  The reason the world does not know us is that it did not know him.”  1 John 3:1

My first thought about November is to wish HAPPY BIRTHDAY to All of You born this month including my precious Christopher.  These days produce more darkness than light, but doesn’t dimness allow silence and wisdom to carry us through Winter?  It’s heavenly Grace that warms humble hearts during this giving season that will find and keep us intact.  Though you may be broken-hearted, God is ready to bind the wounds.  May this November reveal the excellence of God’s Mercy which should unite us to pray together for peace.  A Bing Image.

NOVEMBER SHOCK AND AWE

My dear Friend, this November is producing much disruption on daily life.  The way of seed-time-harvest never changes, requiring personal responsibility and the government of life requires attention. Don’t hit back, don’t insist on getting even, speak only goodness, and believe in the goodness of everyone for God says, “Vengeance is mine, I will repay.” Romans 12:19. Lord, gives us a harvest mind according to Malachi 3:10.  Coming events will shake the status quo, but we can count on God as our source of strength and protection as found in Psalm 73 and Isaiah 54:17.  Will you be prepared to abide in His peace?  A Bing Image.

NOVEMBER SUNSHINE

Creation testifies to a sunny November.

This week I have diligently worked to prepare my house for the coming Winter.  Saturday offers relaxation and to ponder current prophecies.  These messages are clear without specific dates.  God invites us to seek His Will in prayer, and not to argue with people.  We can rely on the boldness of God’s Word as he is faithful to perform it.  I’m paraphrasing the following words from prophet Julie Green:

“God is bigger than all the chaos we see and hear in the news.  The terrorists will not succeed in increasing more wars.  Even when the markets tumble, God has better plans.  Court cases will collapse.  Traitors will get caught on live TV and in the White House. God is warning us. An explosion of truth will destroy the enemies of justice and freedom.

Don’t you want to be prepared?  We can have the sound mind of Christ. Heavenly Father, in Jesus’ name, we trust in your promises.  A Pexels Image.

SPARK OF FIRE

A spark of fire refers to one who desires salvation from God.  Caterina of Seina was such a person who learned from God that “I AM fire and you are the sparks.” The soul rises up in a spark of fire to honor God for its existence.  As it climbs upward it needs the strength of charity to endure earthly trials.  It must let go of pride and foolishness to keep along the path of truth.  Then the soul remains alive to “sow, sow God’s word!”  I believe this is possible and God does not disappoint in this regard.  What are your thoughts about this spark of fire?

CANDLELIGHT

This candlelight image puts into perspective what God said, Let there be light, and there was light.  God saw that the light was good, and he separated the light from the darkness.”  Genesis 1: 3-4.  O how we need more light in our world. A candle is consumed to give light to others, as a good example to follow.  “A place for everything and everything in its place.” Says Isabella Campolattaro.

Is there something in your home that begs to be organized in light? Maybe if so, hop to it! A Bing Image.

 

SPECIAL RENDEZVOUS

Once a month after my Beloved’s treatment we have a special rendezvous for lunch. It’s our constant way of growing closer as a couple and giving thanks for our spiritual life together. It makes us feel close to Jesus knowing that “I love those who love me, and those who seek me find me.” Proverbs 8:17. What do you do to grow closer to God? A Bing Image.
