Today I started by going to Myakka River Elementary and watching our baby girl Jannine sing in front of the entire school. I found myself holding a video camera, snap shot camera and grabing my phone as well to catch the moment. I don't want to miss a thing and want to share it with family and friends. To say I am proud of my children ... well everyone saw it while I tried to juggle three cameras. How much more is God proud of us when we do His will?
Life is so tough at times. But then there are those precious and joyous moments that we want to remember for a lifetime. Pslam 30:5 says For his anger is but for a moment, and his favor is for a lifetime. Weeping may tarry for the night, but joy comes with the morning. God promises that even though we suffer, tomorrow will bring joy.
Psalm 20 ... tells us to TRUST in the Name of the Lord OUR GOD! David says may the Lord answer you in the day of trouble! May the name of the God of Jacob protect you. May He grant you your heart's desire and fulfill all your plans!
Proverbs 4:20- 27 God tells us to listen to His Words. We are to guard our heart that determines the course of our life. We are to fix our eyes on what lies before us. We are to ponder the path of our feet; then our ways will be sure. He tells us to not swerve to the right or the left; turn your foot away from evil.
It is so very clear what we are to do each and every day. We are to guard our HEARTS for it determines the course of our lives. WOW, that is powerful. We need to make certain our hearts are carefully guarded and protected in all we do and say.
Deuteronomy 6:5 says You shall love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your might. Verse 6 says and these words that I command you today shall be on your heart. We are to teach these things to our children and talk of them when we are together in our homes, and when we are walking out together with others, and when we go to bed and wake the next day. Everyone should know that we love the Lord and honor Him as they are around us and our family. Mark 12:29-31 commands us to Love the Lord with all our heart, soul and mind. The second greatest command is to love your neighbor as yourself.
I ask the Lord today, "O Lord give me a heart that longs after you and a heart to serve others!" I pray that our Children see how much we love the Lord and that they will follow after our leadership.
Have a great day everyone. Jesus loves you! Just love Him back.
