 The Psalms I have chosen is the first one in my King James Bible! Psalm 1 King James Version 1  Blessed is the man that walketh not in the counsel of the ungodly, nor standeth in the way of sinners, nor sitteth in the seat of the scornful. 2  But his delight is in the law of the  Lord ; and in his law doth he meditate day and night. 3  And he shall be like a tree planted by the rivers of water, that bringeth forth his fruit in his season; his leaf also shall not wither; and whatsoever he doeth shall prosper. 4  The ungodly are not so: but are like the chaff which the wind driveth away. 5  Therefore the ungodly shall not stand in the judgment, nor sinners in the congregation of the righteous. 6  For the  Lord  knoweth the way of the righteous: but the way of the ungodly shall perish.

June 09, 2026  Today is sunny with a gentle breeze blowing as I prepare another study from Romans in my King James Bible, Turn with me to chapter eight. Verse one we read that there is no condemnation for those who believe and follow the gospel as written in 1Cor.15:1-4 and Romans 8:3,4. Verse 6,13 of chapter 8 tell us to be spiritually minded gives life and peace. Verse 14 says those who live or walk in the spirit are the sons of God.  We who walk in the spirit are adopted by God and can call Him Abba Father. Now let's jump to verses 35-39 and see what Paul writes about the love of God toward the believers and followers of Jesus the Christ. Tribulation, nakedness, peril, sword, persecution shall not, nay, all these things shall not keep us from being conquerors though Him that loves us. Verse 38 Paul writes that he was persuaded that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,nor height, nor depth, nor any other...

Jesus takes us beyond the cross, around God’s throne to be, singing praises to our King, for eternity. Jesus takes us beyond the cross, for in God’s word, I am told, He became our Savior, so we could walk, the streets of gold. Jesus takes us beyond the cross, to dwell with our Heavenly Father there, He will wipe away our tears, there will be no pain, no sorrow,no care. Jesus takes us beyond the cross, because of His love and grace, so will you put your faith in Him? and dwell with Him in this wonderful place.

The Giver: The Bible says, it is more blessed to give than receive! Down through the ages, there have been many great givers, the greatest of them is God Himself. He gave mankind all the wondrous gifts found in creation: the sun, the moon, the stars, the seas and all creatures great and small. In the beginning all was at peace in the garden; then came the devil, then came sin; then came death to all,But the love of God still was there! Because of sin, man was separated from his perfect fellowship with God. God still loved His creation so in order to save it, God, through His wonderful grace sent His Son Jesus, to live on earth, to die on earth and to resurrect from earth returning to God the Father, there interceding for man at this very moment. So from the start of time to the finish of time, God is and forever will be the greatest giver with the greatest gift! Dear soul why not except His greatest Gift of all? Eternal life through Jesus, His Son.~ Winston Staples

 SOUNDS I love the sound, of the morning dove, when he calls his mate in love; I love the sound, of the distant loon, as he sings his mournful tune; I love the sound, of the gentle breeze, as it moves and rustles the leaves; I love the sound, of the falling rain, as it strikes against the window pane; I love the sound, of the babbling brook’ as I sit and dangle my hook; I love the sound, of the lullaby, as the mother soothes her child’s cry. I love the sound, all creation gives, and shouts the news, our creator lives; I love the sound, of God’s Holy word, and the great message it gives to be heard, salvation and great hope for the lost, comes from God at great cost. If this great truth they believe, eternal life they shall receive. There is a sound, I am waiting for, the sound of a great shout, and a trumpets blare, when the Saints will meet, Christ in the air; We will be ushered to Heaven above, because of His amazing grace and eternal love. ~ Winston Staples

 CREATED While strolling through the woods today, I was awed by the beauty of creation, I was seeing along the way, it encircled my being. The baby blue sky, the multitude of brightly colored leaves, red, orange, yellow and gold, their beauty, breath taking to behold. The sparkling water of the beaver dam, reflecting all the beauty around about, caused my heart to want to shout. Praise God! Praise God! To God, our Creator there is no doubt. Yes, all these things seen, were created by the voice of God, the creator of everything. The only exception was man, we were created by God’s mighty hand. Yes You are the great I AM! ~ Winston Staples
