Faithful Sunday ~ #4

Alright this week's faithful verse comes from 2 Corinthians:

Praise be to the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of compassion and the God of all comfort. Who comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves have received from God. For just as the sufferings of Christ flow over into our lives, so also through Christ our comfort overflows. If we are distressed it is for your comfort and salvation; if we are comforted, it is for your comfort, which produces in you patient endurance of the same sufferings we suffer. And our hope for you is firm, because we know that just as you share in our sufferings, so also you share in our comfort. ~ 2 Corinthians 1: 3-7

Faithful Sunday ~ #3

It feels as if it has been awhile since I've done a faithful Sunday or Friday. So I thought it was time for one.

If anyone teaches false doctrines and does not agree to the sound instruction of our Lord Jesus Christ and to godly teaching, he is conceited and understands nothing. He has an unhealthy interest in controversies and quarrels about words that result in envy, strife, malicious talk, evil suspicions and constant friction between men of corrupt mind, who have been robbed of the truth and who think that godliness is a means to financial gain. But godliness with contentment is great gain. For we brought nothing into the world, and we can take nothing out of it. ~ 1 Timothy 6:3-7

Faithful Sunday ~ #2

This is sadly going to become Faithful Sundays LOL b/c there is just too much going on when it comes to Fridays

Every Sunday I want to give you what has gotten me through the week. A little bit of hope and faith...

This scripture is one of my all time favorites: 
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store of me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge, will award to me on that day - and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for this appearing." 2 Timothy 4:7-8

Faithful Fridays ~ #11

This is from Sarah Young's Jesus Calling devotional and it really spoke to me this week

I am calling you to a life of thankfulness. I want all your moments to be punctuated with thanksgiving. The basis for your gratitude is My Sovereignty. I am the Creator and Controller of the universe. Heaven and earth are filed with My glorious Presence.

When you criticize or complain, you are acting as if you think you could run the world better than I do. From your limited human perspective, it may look as if I'm mismanaging things. But you don't know what i know or see what i see. If I pulled back the curtain to allow you to view heavenly realms, you would understand much more. However, I have designed you to live by faith, not by sight. I lovingly shield you from knowing the future or seeing into the spirit world. Acknowledge My sovereignty by giving thanks in all circumstances.
