Covenant of Love

Know therefore that the LORD your God is God; he is the faithful God, keeping his covenant of love to a thousand generations of those who love him and keep his commands.

If you pay attention to these laws and are careful to follow them,

then the LORD your God will keep his covenant of love with you, as he swore to your forefathers.

He will love you and bless you 

and increase your numbers. 

He will bless the fruit of your womb, 

the crops of your land—your grain, new wine and oil—

the calves of your herds and the lambs of your flocks 

in the land that he swore to your forefathers to give you.

~Deuteronomy 7:9 & 12 & 13

"Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; 
I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them."
~Jesus in Matt. 5:17
Jesus died for us because we can not keep the law.

Door of Hope

"Therefore I am now going to allure her; 

       I will lead her into the desert 

       and speak tenderly to her.

There I will give her back her vineyards, 

and will make the Valley of Achor a door of hope. 

There she will sing as in the days of her youth, 

       as in the day she came up out of Egypt."

~Hosea 2:14-15

Beautiful Wounds

"Soul do not be worried. 

Heart be not afraid.

Just think on those 

Beautiful wounds the 

thorns and the nails have made.

Fear you have no power.

Joy has taken it's place."

~From Jan L. Ecuyer's 

song Beautiful Wounds

Praise you Lord for your creation!

The Lord is With Me

I know the LORD is always with me. 

I will not be shaken, for he is right beside me. 

No wonder my heart is filled with joy, 

and my mouth shouts his praises! 

My body rests in safety. 

For you will not leave my soul among the dead 

or allow your godly one to rot in the grave. 

You will show me the way of life, 

granting me the joy of your presence 

and the pleasures of living with you forever. 

~Psalm 16:8-11

Marching on The Waves

He alone has spread out the heavens 

and marches on the waves of the sea. 

~Job 9:8

Victory...

For sin is the sting that results in death, 

and the law gives sin its power. 

How we thank God, 

who gives us victory over sin and death through Jesus Christ our Lord! 

So, my dear brothers and sisters, be strong and steady, 

always enthusiastic about the Lord’s work, 

for you know that nothing you do for the Lord is ever useless. 

~1Corinthians 15:56-58
