Oh, what a awesome combination: T and H

The Holy City, come down from Heaven adorned for her Husband, Jesus, with the Tabernacle of God now with men, and the things of the curse are vanished away!!!

Revelation 21:2-4
Then I, John, saw the Holy city, New Jerusalem, coming down out of Heaven from God, prepared as a bride adorned for her Husband. 3 And I heard a loud voice from Heaven saying, “Behold, the Tabernacle of God is with men, and He will dwell with them, and they shall be His people. God Himself will be with them and be their God. 4 And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes; there shall be no more death, nor sorrow, nor crying. There shall be no more pain, for the former things have passed away.”

U and I ??? Well that's what I get for jumping in and doing 2 posts in a row!

OK here goes:

Don't focus Inwards to yourself and things of a carnal nature - focus Upwards towards Jesus and the redemptive power of the cross!

Ephesians 2:1-7 "And you He made alive, who were dead in trespasses and sins, 2 in which you once walked according to the course of this world, according to the prince of the power of the air, the spirit who now works in the sons of disobedience, 3 among whom also we all once conducted ourselves in the lusts of our flesh, fulfilling the desires of the flesh and of the mind, and were by nature children of wrath, just as the others.
4 But God, who is rich in mercy, because of His great love with which He loved us, 5 even when we were dead in trespasses, made us alive together with Christ (by grace you have been saved), 6 and raised us up together, and made us sit together in the heavenly places in Christ Jesus, 7 that in the ages to come He might show the exceeding riches of His grace in His kindness toward us in Christ Jesus."

For all you folk, who do not know what has happened to their beloved thread on the ABC's, it has been 'assigned' a new flavor - or is that favor - where one can choose to follow the old 'one-word' system systematically as before, or you can opt for the new and revised version of going with the next 2 letters, either in the same word, or in 2 separate words, as was introduced by our dear friend ABM lol, kind of a thread within a thread - maybe a sub-thread? So feel free to choose whichever system works best for you... might make it a bit more intersting!

Hope you enjoy...

Pure and Spotless Bride

Eph 5:25 Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it;
Eph 5:26 That he might sanctify and cleanse it with the washing of water by the word,
Eph 5:27 That he might present it to himself a glorious church, not having spot, or wrinkle, or any such thing; but that it should be holy and without blemish.

Psalm 119:147

I love the Psalms too and have prayed them on occasion and when I am led:

S and E

South and East! (And North and West too Amen!)

Psalm 107:1-9

"Oh, give thanks to the Lord, for He is good!
For His mercy endures forever.
Let the redeemed of the Lord say so,
Whom He has redeemed from the hand of the enemy,
And gathered out of the lands,
From the East and from the west,
From the north and from the South.

They wandered in the wilderness in a desolate way;
They found no city to dwell in.
Hungry and thirsty,
Their soul fainted in them.
Then they cried out to the Lord in their trouble,
And He delivered them out of their distresses.
And He led them forth by the right way,
That they might go to a city for a dwelling place.
Oh, that men would give thanks to the Lord for His goodness,
And for His wonderful works to the children of men!
For He satisfies the longing soul,
And fills the hungry soul with goodness."

 

[Shepherd1]

Savior!

T - Time
