Sorry, the above post posted twice for some reason.

God bless you all

The childish idea that prayer is a handle by which we can take
hold of God and obtain whatever we desire, leads to easy
disillusionment with both what we had thought to be God and what
we had thought to be prayer.

Good morning
Have a blessed day in the Lord.
God bless

Oh, that is very good Barb!

Good morning Barb,
Good morning Doc,
Good morning everyone, have a blessed day with the Lord.

Good Morning Doc

In Christ we are free

Jesus said, "You shall know the truth, and the truth shall make
you free" (Joh.8:32).

Truth makes us free because it gives understanding.
Understanding helps us accept the necessary conditions, restrictions, and discipline which must prevail if there is to be true freedom.
To obey the truth of God's Word makes us free from the slavery of evil habits, desires which harm us, and behavior which dishonors the Lord.

Liberty is not the result of human achievement. It is the result of obedience to God. Disobedience means loss of freedom.
If freedom is to be real and lasting, it must be controlled by love. Freedom to do as one pleases, without regard for others or for the circumstances, is destructive. Christian liberty is freedom to love and to serve.

It is abused when it is made an excuse for loveless behavior or inconsiderate action. Real freedom is found in serving God.
With our minds centered on Christ and what He would have us do, the self-
centered desires and degrading habits of life are crowded out.
Life is complete and happy when we surrender ourselves to God, whose yoke is easy and burden is light (Mat.11:30).

Hi! It's good to be here again. I love reading all your posts. You've got me thinking about how wonderful it is to do things for others, to be genuinely concerned for someone. Listening to people is a great way to show love. Often we're so quick to say what we want to say, even before we hear the other out! If we quit thinking about ourselves so much, and we really care about the other, then we will listen and try to understand what they're trying to communicate, instead of trying so hard to get our point across.

I like this...listening is something I "can" do.

Thank you Doc! Well said!
The world doesn't understand that at all, but we do.
We are not restricted by a set of dos and don'ts by God, but we are liberated to be the people we are meant to be. It doesnt even feel like "I should/must do this or not. It is just living a life of love to God and others. Then naturally, by the grace of God, we do as we ought.
And like you say "Life is complete and happy", so true!!! and I only have peace and joy when I do surrender to God and His will and ways.
I am so overjoyed to have God's yoke because it is so much lighter then the load I carried in the past!

Thank You, Jesus!

CALL OUT TO GOD​

Call out to God in faithful song
Call out to God in praise
Cry out to God when something’s wrong
Loving Him all our days​

God loves it when His face we seek
He loves it when we pray
The humble hearted, spirit meek
Walking His chosen way​

Call out to God with hands held high
Extol The King above
Cry to The Lamb who chose to die
And raise our lives in love​

For prayer tears down the strongest wall
Lays open gates and doors
Can bring the devil swift to fall
And close demonic jaws

Call out to God in gratitude
Call out along The Way
For health for wealth life’s clothes and food
And keeping safe each day​

There’s no one else to rescue
No other God can save
No other lord brings birth anew
Escaping death and grave​

Call out to God for all He’s done
For all the things to be
The wonder of His Christ and Son
Setting His children free​

Let all creation dance and sing
Call out a loud hooray
Let all creation blessings bring
Forever and a day ​

Johnson​

LORD, who may dwell in your sanctuary?
Who may live on your holy hill?

He whose walk is blameless
and who does what is righteous,
who speaks the truth from his heart

Good morning all.
The knowledge of God and being called His child is such a priviledge that outshines anything that the world has to offer. The world wants us to achieve status through conforming to its vision of what worthwhile achievements are...worldly pursuits that have no eternal value and are deceptive...but Christ knows we can have personal satisfaction and glorify His name by following Him, pursuing the goal in the race which has eternal , everlasting reward.
God bless.

Good morning sister
So nicely said. And that is the only way we can have lasting and real satisfaction!
May we glorify God and His Name is all we do and are!

Hello Doc and friends!
I'm having an exam tomorrow so I better get to sleep, but have a nice week everyone! God bless!!

Romans 13:13 (KJV) Let us walk honestly, as in the day; not in rioting and drunkenness, not in chambering and wantonness, not in strife and envying.

Honest people who are walking in truth, who are walking in the Lord, walking in the Word of God, will live out in the open.
They are not afraid to live in the spotlight, where everyone has a clear view of what they are doing.
The light clearly illuminates their deeds. They will even come to the light to become more mature as Christians.

Good evening Brother Doc...Have a blessed night!

Remember, Whisper "Jesus"
For He is just a prayer away
He's so close that you can touch Him
All you have to do is pray

Good evening everyone.

Getting an emotional makeover doesn't involve denying your problems...it welcomes trials full-strength all the time, saying, "Lord, I accept each day as it comes, filtered through Your love. In these troubles I choose joy."

good evening to you all..
