16 Jan 11 Wish someone happy birthday!My favorite person celebrated another BD today, but we really celebrate our spiritual birthday together and we are only 33.We spent time yesterday with the little ones and their parents enjoying life, good food,gifts and safe travel.Thank you for praying for us.Today we had our 3rd lesson and the class was very responsive. We read to know Him and everyone participated.

Genesis 32:13-34:31 allows us to see Jacob react to his brother and respond to GOD. Stewardship appears to be on his mind mixed with fear which results in a bad concept of God.Yet Jacob demonstrated a great truth by finally getting rid of all his stuff and getting alone with God.We ought to learn this lesson of abasing/divesting ourselves in order to get ready to meet The LORD.How Jacob was treated shows us the will of GOD for all mankind.To me this is II Cor 5:17-21 in the flesh.

Matthew 11:7-30 confronts us with a choice, who do we trust and who do we believe? As a whosoever how have you responded to this offer presented by Jesus?

Psalm 14:1-7 shows us that man is corrupt.We are either like Jacob or like Israel and we know where we stand with GOD.The LORD wants all mankind to be saved but He will not force any person against their will.Choose the BEST.

Proverbs 3:19-20 allows all to see His attributes of Omniscience an Omnipotence.

This is the first day of this new week and the opportunities to serve our Lord are before us, be right and do right for His name's sake.Selah. Maranatha. luvpj
