Take this day to catch up on your reading, pray, and rest in the presence of the Lord.
And we know that the Son of God has come and has given us understanding so that we may know the true one. We are in the true one—that is, in his Son, Jesus Christ. He is the true God and eternal life.
—1 John 5:20

Prayers please my husband is a federal worker he has been working with no pay. We are on day 38 of the govt shutdown and money is so tight
Happy Saturday she’s. Thank you for your prayers. I am able to breathe and relax now. My printer worked the exact day I asked you for prayers, and the kids got back to school the next day as well after three long week of teacher strike. My mortgage papers got approved with higher appraisal value to a suprise of us all. The appraiser came on short notice (after us frantically cleaning and decluttering) he gave a high number we didn’t expect. The self assessment at work had a lot of back and forth yesterday but my team lead was kind and patient this time. Truly facing my fear in the presence of the Lord with the peace knowing my sisters got my back when I was on a brink of collapse gave me strength. Thank you she’s for your faithfulness and love and encouragement. Words cannot express how thankful I am to you. The Lord truly answered my prayers. I always pray for godly virtuous women to be my friends. Thank you God. Be blessed dear sisters.❤️
Praise God!! To Him Glory!! So good to hear such answers to prayers!!

Praise God for His favor in your trials!
Praise the Lord for His provision, kindness and favor ❤️

Grateful to know the ONE true God and walking this life with ALL of you sweet SRT sisters. Happy Saturday sweeties! It “looks” a lot like Fall here but the weather is still warm and I’m not complaining. Wish you could see some of the most beautiful colors. Later today my daughter and I will take a drive to see all the beautiful trees.

Amen

Good morning She’s, Happy Saturday!
I woke up with the song “Center” going through my head. It is a fitting song after reading through the book of John. For all Jesus is, came for, and gives us–shouldn’t He be the center of our life?! He is the meaning of life. He is our foundation, our rock, our all and all.
Do our lives show that we love Jesus first and foremost? Do I yearn for others to know him? Do I look different then those in the world by the shows I watch/don’t watch, music, lifestyle? Do I spend time with the Lord, in the Bible, meditation, listening, and prayer and petition?!
Lord, you are my heart’s desire, I want to know you more and more! Give me wisdom and guidance each day. Teach me your ways, walking on the straight and narrow path, that leads to eternal Glory! You are the light that gives radiance to our life! We can represent you in all we do, serving and washing feet, speaking of your beauty, and sharing your love. We are so grateful to be yours. (heart)
You remind me of this song..”You alone are my strength and my shield. To You alone may my spirit yield. You alone are my heart’s desire and I long to worship You” (as the deer)
I don’t know it..but pretty, wonderful lyrics and prayer!
1 John 5:1-4 CSB
Everyone who believes that Jesus is the Christ has been born of God, and everyone who loves the Father[a] also loves the one born of him.
2 This is how we know that we love God’s children: when we love God and obey his commands.
3 For this is what love for God is: to keep his commands. And his commands are not a burden,
4 because everyone who has been born of God conquers the world. This is the victory that has conquered the world: our faith.
.
FAITH IS the VICTORY (great hymn!), but we have to choose.
In contrast we read this renowned passage:
BIBLEGATEWAY VERSE OF THE DAY (I added v. 14 for context.):
Joshua 24:14 NLT
So fear the Lord and serve him wholeheartedly. Put away forever the idols your ancestors worshiped when they lived beyond the Euphrates River and in Egypt. Serve the Lord alone.
15 But if you refuse to serve the Lord, then choose today whom you will serve.
Would you prefer the gods your ancestors served beyond the Euphrates? Or will it be the gods of the Amorites in whose land you now live?
But as for me and my family, we will serve the Lord.”
.
Love, hugs, prayers, and happy weekend! ❤

Check out the new song by John Finch: Glory and Honor
Amen ❤️⭐️
❤
He is eternal life. Amen.
Happy Saturday She’s. ❤️
1 John 5:4 For whatever is born of God overcomes the world. And this is the victory that has overcome the world—our faith.
.
B ❤️ thank you for your research and the reminder to not be pulled into thinking that is not of God. This quote was especially worth remembering “There is more than enough truth in the words and meanings of Scripture to meet all our needs and make us ‘complete and thoroughly equipped for every good work’ (see 2 Timothy 3:16-17).“
TINA ❤️
MARI V ❤️ praying for the strength, wisdom and guidance needed on the 21st.
BARB ❤️ thank you for the impactful quote from Churchmouse, wish I had been a better note taker over the years
CEE GEE ❤️❤️❤️ awesome connections, sister, thank you!!
