Apr 16th Joshua 13:1-14:15 describes the work of all men to be obedient, blessed, fruitful and multiply. Remember, Joshua was about 80 when Moses died and his life's work was to get the children into the Promise Land, defeat the enemies of GOD, divide,occupy and enjoy representing The LORD. Caleb is a real"old"hero who for 5 years had been helping get the land settled and now at 85 wanted to "take his mountain". What do you want to do for the glory of GOD? Age should not limit you.

Luke 18:1-17 ask a question that requires an answer, how is your prayer life? It is not a format but an attitude. Are we persistent when we ask, knock and seek?Are we honest, humble and contrite? Is what the Pharisee said in his prayer wrong or was what he said wrong because he was arrogant when he compared himself to another person and not humble before GOD? Is it possible to be proud of our humility and say "Oh I'm so glad I'm not proud like him!"? How does this impact your concept of GOD? What does verses 16-17 mean to you concerning salvation?

Psalm 85:1-13 reminds us that "salvation" is a word with many ways of being used.Let the words of truth cause you to believe and trust GOD for all you need today and for eternity.One day our "salvation" will be complete and we will be in the presence of our heavenly Father and "sin" will be no more. Thanks be unto our Lord Jesus Christ "now" as we are in the world,in the presence of sin, but sin's penalty is not on us.
Proverbs 13:7-8 how is your account holding up? Are you rich and your soul fat or are you making yourself poor? We need to practice "good" stewardship. Does pride "ever"creep in when we take our own spiritual inventory? Selah. pj

PS: The T.E.A. party for Weatherford was successful! We have drawn a line in the sand and said "no more" to increased taxes, bad government and abuse of power. We need to do what is right in our own homes so that our city,state and nation will be right.We should not complain if we are not doing right and when we do right, what have we done more than our duty? We represent Almighty God! We are living proof that He lives.Selah. Let us get ready to give an account of our stewardship. Any clouds?
