LIFE LESSON FOR TODAY, 4/3/14

LIFE LESSON FOR TODAY

I thank the Lord,"Spring is Here!"
We may still have some cool days
but the birds are singing and the 
trees have small leaves on them. 
I have always enjoyed seeing all
of the signs of new seasons about 
to come forth. The Lord really did
bless His people with  the beauty
of nature's majesty every season.

I know we have celebrate Earth 
Day and it's trendy to care about
the environment.  I learned that
God's Word will encourage me
to respect the earth. My Bible
study has enlightened me to 
this fact. I do plan to be more
respectful of the environment
in the future!

I will take the time to recycle,
repurpose, and upcycle, rather
than discard things.

This week I'll feature daily 
scriptures which teach and
encourage me to respect 
the environment.



SCRIPTURES FOR THURSDAY

MATTHEW 6:26-30


26 Look at the birds of the air, for they neither sow nor reap nor gather into barns; yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not of more value than they?  
27 Which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature?
28 “So why do you worry about clothing? Consider the lilies of the field, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; 
  29 and yet I say to you that even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these.  
30 Now if God so clothes the grass of the field, which today is, and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, will He not much more clothe you, O you of little faith?

DEPICTION OF JONAH RUNNING AWAY FROM THE LORD I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.      This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I will share scriptures which discuss that the Lord CALLED a man named Jonah.  He did not want to answer the Lord's call and ran away.  There were consequences to Jonah's actions. The Lord's will did prevail. He did go to Nineveh. JONAH 1: 1-4, 6-9, 12, 15-17 1  Now the word of the Lord came to Jonah the

DEPICTION OF RAHAB OF JERICHO I was doing Bible study one night and it became clear to me that, Noah, Moses, Jonah, Deborah, Jael, Lydia, Seller of Purple, Rehab, The Twelve Disciples, and Paul were all CALLED by God. The Lord may require  some people to carry out a special task.There will be others that may be required to minister His Word and  travel around the world as a missionary.   This week I'll share scriptures about different men  and women that were called by the Lord. Some of these people were rebellious and did not want to answer His call.  All eventually did the Lord's will. Today, I'll share scriptures which show how  a prostitute named  Rahab was used to help  Joshua's spies. Joshua, son of Nun, became  the ruler for the Israelites after Moses died. The Bible also tells us that the Lord is "not a respecter of persons"and accepts all who will respect him. It can be His will to use a harlot (prostitute)

DEPICTION OF ADAM & EVE WITH THEIR CHILDREN I say thank you to PBS for featuring TV shows  on researching your family tree by Heny Louis Gates, Jr.  The show was called, "Finding Your Roots". I enjoyed this show and and eventually became very good at family tree research. Genealogy was important during Bible days and the Bible book of Genesis gives us several family trees. Today I am showing Adam and Eve’s family tree. GENESIS 2: 18, 22-24 18  And the Lord God said, “ It is not good that man should be alone; I will make him a helper comparable to him. 22  Then the rib which the Lord God had taken from man He made into a woman, and He brought her to the man. 23  And Adam said: “This is now bone of my bones And flesh of my flesh; She shall be called Woman, Because she was taken out of Man.” 24  Therefore a man shall leave h
