Yesterday I took a short drive on my son’s four wheeler and as I was driving along slowly I came to a large mud hole in the road. I was faced with three choices, either go through it, go around it or turn back. In life we face many mud holes and we have the same choices and with God’s direction He will help us make the right choice! ~Winston Staples

Adoption into God’s Family The past few days we have been looking into the Scripture and seeing what it records about adoption into the family of God and our relationship with Him and His persons, today we continue in our search. Romans 8:19,23; 1 John 3:2. 1 John 3:2 Beloved, now are we the sons of God, and it doth not yet appear what we shall be: but we know that, when he shall appear, we shall be like him; for we shall see him as he is. What a day that will be when we finally meet our Saviour, our Brother and joint heir in the Family of God!  2 Samuel 7:14; Proverbs 3:11-12; Hebrews 12:5-11. Proverbs 3: 11 My son, despise not the chastening of the LORD; neither be weary of his correction: 12For whom the LORD loveth he correcteth; even as a father the son in whom he delighteth. Until that perfect day when we see Jesus face to face we will be chastened because God loves us and is preparing us for that glorious day!  2 Co.6:17-18; 2 Co. 7:1; Phil. 2:15; 1 John 3:1-3.  1 J...

Psalm 103 King James Version 103  Bless the  Lord , O my soul: and all that is within me, bless his holy name. 2  Bless the  Lord , O my soul, and forget not all his benefits: 3  Who forgiveth all thine iniquities; who healeth all thy diseases; 4  Who redeemeth thy life from destruction; who crowneth thee with lovingkindness and tender mercies; 5  Who satisfieth thy mouth with good things; so that thy youth is renewed like the eagle's. 6  The  Lord  executeth righteousness and judgment for all that are oppressed. 7  He made known his ways unto Moses, his acts unto the children of Israel. 8  The  Lord  is merciful and gracious, slow to anger, and plenteous in mercy. 9  He will not always chide: neither will he keep his anger for ever. 10  He hath not dealt with us after our sins; nor rewarded us according to our iniquities. 11  For as the heaven is high above the earth, so great is his mercy toward them ...

Psalm 12 King James Version 12  Help,  Lord ; for the godly man ceaseth; for the faithful fail from among the children of men. 2  They speak vanity every one with his neighbour: with flattering lips and with a double heart do they speak. 3  The  Lord  shall cut off all flattering lips, and the tongue that speaketh proud things: 4  Who have said, With our tongue will we prevail; our lips are our own: who is lord over us? 5  For the oppression of the poor, for the sighing of the needy, now will I arise, saith the  Lord ; I will set him in safety from him that puffeth at him. 6  The words of the  Lord  are pure words: as silver tried in a furnace of earth, purified seven times. 7  Thou shalt keep them, O  Lord , thou shalt preserve them from this generation for ever. 8  The wicked walk on every side, when the vilest men are exalted.

Observations! Written by Winston sr. in Uncategorized As I look out my window, at a drear cloudy day, the sunshine of yesterday, has like the fluffy clouds floated away; This day outside may be dreary, but my soul is rejoicing, because like the fluffy clouds, have all rolled away. I asked Jesus to forgive me, and cleanse all my sin, by the washing of His blood, and applying to the Holy of Ho lies, a sacrifice for all our sin, allowing the Holy Spirit, to enter in our new man; giving victory over death, and setting us free, by the power of His Spirit, saved by His grace and not our merit! ~Winston Staples

Desires of The Heart! SOMETIMES WHEN I SIT, LONGINGS COME TO ME, LONGINGS TO TRAVEL, TO FAR AWAY PLACES, TO HEAR DIFFERENT SOUNDS, DIFFERENT FACES SEE. LONGINGS TO WALK, ALONG MOUNTAIN TRAILS, ALONG THE SEAS, AND THROUGH GARDENS, MANY FLOWERS TO SEE. SOME DAYS I LONG, LONG FOR HEAVEN, THERE JESUS I WILL SEE, IN THIS HEAVENLY PLACE, NO PAIN AND SORROW, NO CLOUDY SKIES WILL BE, NO MORE LONGINGS FOR ME.
