Blameless
Bible Reading Today: 1 Samuel 9-12
1 Samuel 12:5 And he said unto them, The LORD is witness against you, and his anointed is witness this day, that ye have not found ought in my hand. And they answered, He is witness.
Samuel was someone who listened closely & intently to The Lord all his life. He started as a child and the voice of The Lord was his guide...in following after God's lead, living a life according to God's will and not his own, no one in Israel could find any fault in him! That is one incredible life! And if we live a life as close to God as we can, no one else will be able to accuse us of anything! Now of course, no one is perfect, but I'm sure even the small things can be easily forgiven if people see that our intention is to please God with our whole hearts! When we let the blood of Jesus wash over us in baptism, having a repentant heart open to receiving God's Spirit, we too can be washed clean & ready to start fresh, with a clean slate, making a statement in the lives of others & making a difference! We can be blameless with Jesus leading the way!

A Moment of Silence.
As was powerfully preached this past Wednesday, "Let there be light" were the first words spoken by God in Genesis 1:3... And He wasn't necessarily speaking about a physical manifestation... But a Spiritual one. Knowing that creation Would mean redemption. It would mean... Heaven needs to touch earth... Light would need to pierce the veil of darkness... The process of creating was ongoing... All the way to the point of creating in us clean hearts (Psalm 51:10) by being born again of water &...
The Heart of the Struggle
Focus Scripture: But Mary kept all these things, and pondered them in her heart. Luke 2:19 Hello again! It's been about 4 months since I've stepped back into this space, and I have to say, I am taking very gentle steps. It's been on my heart so much to write again, but I am treading lightly. I may not post every day, unless God leads me there again...but for now, I am just moving forward in God's grace. I have some blog ideas stored up that I've been saving over time as I reflect upon His...
