Hasten Sring!

 Today I awoke to soft snow, soft snow fluttering down; the white hillside looking so clean, but I am longing to see, those same hillsides, a beautiful forty shades of green! Oh, today I am saying, hasten, yes, hasten to wonderful Spring; Spring where wildflowers bloom, Spring, where the song birds sing; to witness the power of God's voice, and the power of God's hands, and I say, hasten on beautiful Spring! ~Winston Staples

Daily Bible Reading!

John 4:24 KJV 24  God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth.

PHIL.4

4  Rejoice in the Lord always: and again I say, Rejoice. 5  Let your moderation be known unto all men. The Lord is at hand. 6  Be careful for nothing; but in every thing by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known unto God. 7  And the peace of God, which passeth all understanding, shall keep your hearts and minds through Christ Jesus

THE WORD!

The Word is Borne  —- John 1: 1  In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.    John 14: 5  Thomas saith unto him, Lord, we know not whither thou goest; and how can we know the way? 6  Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me. 7  If ye had known me, ye should have known my Father also: and from henceforth ye know him, and have seen him.   Jesus the word reveals the truth, the way and the life. This is the only way to Eternal life and the FATHER! There is only one true way unto the only one true God. Galatians 4:5-6  (KJV) 4  But when the fulness of the time was come, God sent forth his Son, made of a woman, made under the law, 5  To redeem them that were under the law, that we might receive the adoption of sons.  Philippians 2: 5  Let this mind be in you, which was also in Christ Jesus: 6  Who, being in the form of Go...

A Winters Day!

A JANUARY DAY The day is very cold, After the snow, The temperature hovers, At twenty below. The neighbor’s car, Will not start, It growls, to cold, to cold, The truth is the battery is to old. Life’s road gets like that, We have one life, Not nine like the cat. We get weary, And sad in heart; When I feel like this, I read Isaiah forty, And I am encouraged, By verse thirty – one. I pause, Say thanks, To the Trinity, God the Father, God the Holy Spirit, And Jesus, God the Son! ~Winston Staples

Longings!

 Dear soul do you long for a place of rest? Do you long for a place where the sun never sets? Do you long for a place without toil and stress? Do you long for a place of cloudless skies? Dear soul do you desire a place without pain, And without goodbyes? Do you long for a place with painless days? Do you long for a place where roses forever bloom? Dear soul do you hope for a place of gladness, And eternal praise? Dear soul that place is Heaven, Where with Jesus we will forever remain! Dear soul you will need no money, And you won't need fame, Just follow Jesus, He will put you, On that Heaven bound train! ~Winston Staples
