What A Mighty God we Serve!

A "True/False" Election test. I'd like for all of us to take it.

True/False: The day after the election, regardless of who has won, our responsibilities as Christians will not have changed one iota.

The Holy Alphabet

Although things are not perfect

Because of trial or pain

Continue in thanksgiving

Do not begin to blame

Even when the times are hard

Fierce winds are bound to blow

God is forever able

Hold on to what you know

Imagine life without His love

Joy would cease to be

Keep thanking Him for all the things

Love imparts to thee

Move out of "Camp Complaining"

No weapon that is known

On earth can yield the power

Praise can do alone

Quit looking at the future

Redeem the time at hand

Start every day with worship

To "thank" is a command

Until we see Him coming

Victorious in the sky

We'll run the race with gratitude

X alting God most high

Yes, there'll be good times and yes some will be bad, but...

Zion waits in glory...where none are ever sad!

Amen. That is a very good way of using the alphabet.

During the Great Depression, there was a man who lost his job, his wife, his home and his fortune. He hung on tightly to the one thing he still had left . . . his faith in God.

One day, he stopped to watch some men doing stonework on a church. One of the workers was chiseling a triangular piece of stone. He asked the worker, "What are you going to do with that?"

"See that little opening way up there near the spire?" the worker asked. "Well, I'm shaping this piece of stone down here . . . so it will fit up in there."

As he walked away, tears filled his eyes, for it seemed God had spoken through that worker to explain the ordeal he currently was experiencing: "I'm shaping you down here, so you will fit in up here."

I pray that we will remember to thank the Lord for all the "shaping" He does in our lives, which brings us closer to Him.

" But now, O Lord, thou art our father; we are the clay, and thou our potter; and we all are the work of thy hand. "

Isaiah 64:8

[RatDog]

Then shalt thou call, and the Lord shall answer; thou shalt cry, and he shall say, Here I am. If thou take away from the midst of thee the yoke, the putting forth of the finger, and speaking vanity , , ,

Isaiah 58:9

Post Election Facts to Remember

God is still on His throne

Jesus is still King of Kings and Lord of Lords

The Bible still has all the answers to every problem

The tomb is still empty

Jesus is still the only way to heaven

Prayer still works - it will still make a difference and God will still answer prayer

The cross, not the government, is still our salvation

There is still room at the cross

Jesus will still save anyone who places their faith and trust in Him

God will still be with us always - He will never leave us or nor forsake us

Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen.

Hebrews 11:1

[RatDog]

Never Alone


He can calm the troubled waters
When you walk in dark despair.
There is hope when you feel helpless
Knowing that the Lord is there...

Sharing in your sunshine moments
Or in valleys deep and wide,
He will never, ever leave you-
He is always by your side.

There's no other friend so faithful
Through the sunshine and the rain,
Through the teardrops and the laughter,
In your joy and in your pain.

We could never, ever thank Him
For His love He gives so free,
Never changing...never ending
Throughout all eternity.

Oh, the wonder of all wonders
As we live from day to day,
Knowing that we have a Father
Who is with us all the way.
