One Way and One Path to God

Jeremiah 32:38-39 and a Trail in Jay Cooke State Park, Minnesota.

“They shall be My people, and I will be their God; and I will give them one heart and one way, that they may fear Me always, for their own good and for the good of their children after them.” Jeremiah 32:38-39

Follow the Path to God

Beautiful things happen when we follow after God. When we walk with The Lord He call us His People and guides us as our God.  He gives us a new heart and a new path to follow. His path leads to beauty and peace.

Joy and hope reside on the path to God.

Stand Strong and Firm in the Faith

1 Corinthians 16:13-14 and Trees Before Sunrise, Rocky Mountain National Park, Colorado.

“Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.” 1 Corinthians 16:13-14

Stand Strong in Love

Many things in life cause Christ Followers to stay on alert. Satan attacks our faith in a multitude of ways. The Bible says in all things of we must act with strength and firmness.

So stand strong like deep rooted trees, but as with Christ our strength should always go hand in hand with love. “Dear Lord, may our love for You and for others always show. Amen.”

The Apostle Paul wrote some encouraging words to the early church in the rest of 1 Corinthians 16.

Let the Distant Shores Rejoice

Psalm 97:1-2 and Granite Top Coastline Acadia National Park, Maine.A view of the Acadia coastline from one of its granite top peaks, Acadia National Park, Maine. Bible Verse of the Day: Psalm 97:1-2 Distant shores rejoice

“The LORD reigns, let the earth be glad; let the distant shores rejoice. Clouds and thick darkness surround him; righteousness and justice are the foundation of his throne.”  Psalm 97:1-2

Join the Distant Shores Rejoice

I confess. Too often I find myself to be a grumbler and complainer. I let little things put me in a bad mood. But the Bible calls all to rejoice. Even the “distant shores” are called to rejoice and celebrate our God.

Rejoicing like the distance shores is the way to go. Happiness doesn’t bring joy. Happiness is an emotion. Joy is a mindset. A mindset of joy brings happiness.

Let’s all join the distance shores and rejoice!

Read all of Psalm 97 and rejoice!

Heavenly Dwelling Places

John 14:2 and Mountain homes, Summit County, Colorado.Homes on hillside over dwarfed by a mountain submit , Summit County, Colorado. John 14:2,heavenly dwelling places

“In My Father’s house are many dwelling places; if it were not so, I would have told you; for I go to prepare a place for you.” John 14:2

Dwelling Places in God’s Presence

What a place to live! A mountain home! I’d love to live there, but I realize that it may never happen. Life and work and lack of funds keep my family and I in our humble home in a humble neighborhood. And we are very blessed to live where we live.

Someday those of us Christians who follow Christ will receive a new home. He promised that in His “Father’s house there are many dwelling places.” And that He is preparing one for you and me.

When I look at this photo I think of those “dwelling places”, our heavenly homes. Just like these homes dwell under the power and presence of a mountain, in Heaven we will live under the of power and presence of our Heavenly Father. In Him we will find peace and security forever.
