JEREMIAH 17:7-8
“But blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him. He will be like a tree planted by the water that sends out its roots by the stream. It does not fear when heat comes; its leaves are always green. It has no worries in a year of drought and never fails to bear fruit.”
Lord Almighty my saviour, thanks for this day, for my life, for all the provision, for your gracious love.

SUNDAY AFTERNOON
“For this very reason, make every effort to add to your faith goodness; and to goodness, knowledge; and to knowledge, self-control; and to self-control, perseverance; and to perseverance, godliness; and to godliness, brotherly kindness; and to brotherly kindness, love. For if you possess these qualities in increasing measure, they will keep you from being ineffective and unproductive in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ.”-
2 Peter 1:5-8
WAIT
Are you waiting for a blessing?
God knows everything. The time, the day, the year. HE is never late.
Elijah and the widow in Zarephath.
"The Lord, the God of Israel, says: "The bowl will not run out or the jar run out of oil before the day that I, the Lord, send rain.""
If you are afraid of anything, just calm down, and give God, The Lord Almighty all your concerns. HE sends rain at the right time.
God Bless you!!

THE THIRD COMMANDMENT
THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
This is the name which is above every name.
Many people who read the Bible do not know the word “LORD” in capital letters is a translation of the Hebrew tetragrammaton “YHWH” that represents the sacred name of God.
“Let this mind be in you which was also in Christ Jesus, who being in the form of God, did not consider it robbery to be equal with God, but made Himself of no reputation, taking the form of a servant, and coming in the likeness of men. And being found in appearance as a man, He humbled Himself and became obedient to the point of death, even the death of the cross. Therefore God also has highly exalted Him and given Him the name which is above every name, that at the name of Jesus every knee should bow, of those in heaven, and of those on earth, and of those under the earth, and that every tongue should confess that Jesus Christ is Lord, to the glory of God the Father.” (Phil. 2:5-11 - NKJV)

RELIGION
It is always a great surprise to get a visit in my blog. This time I was invited to make a comment about a wedding between families from different religions, and because of this some relatives were not invited for the celebration.
It is really ashamed to realize that a religion can divide a family.
Life would be easier if we followed the 10 commandments.
The 10 Commandments - God's Revelation in the Old Testament The 10 Commandments are found in the Bible's Old Testament at Exodus, Chapter 20. They were given directly by God to the people of Israel at Mount Sinai after He had delivered them from slavery in Egypt:
"And God spoke all these words, saying: 'I am the LORD your God…
ONE: 'You shall have no other gods before Me.'
TWO: 'You shall not make for yourself a carved image--any likeness of anything that is in heaven above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth.'
THREE: 'You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.'
FOUR: 'Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.'
FIVE: 'Honor your father and your mother.'
SIX: 'You shall not murder.'
SEVEN: 'You shall not commit adultery.'
EIGHT: 'You shall not steal.'
NINE: 'You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.'
TEN: 'You shall not covet your neighbor's house; you shall not covet your neighbor's wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor's.'

CARING AND LOVE
In a family relationship we can learn how to deal with a variety of different feelings. It can be from freedom to ordeal, but with their boundaries. We have to follow a set of rules to live well in a society, and it doesn't matter if it is in a family, in a job, in a club, in a stadium, or in a church. We need to understand and analyse carefully what is around. People are fragile and should get the right attention, care and love. Furthermore, each person has his own personality and as an individual is capable of developing a unique type of concept. Right or wrong? What is right for you might be wrong for me.
What kind of freedom do you have with Lord?
“For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a spirit of power, of love and of self-discipline.”- 2 Timothy 1:7
