Justice in June

-
Here is My servant, whom I support
Here is My chosen one, with whom I am pleased.
I have put my Spirit on him.
He will bring justice to the nations
He will not cry out or raise His voice
He will not make His voice heards in the streets
He will not break off a damage cattail
He will not even put out a smoking wick.
He will faithfully bring about justice.
He will not be discouraged or crushed until He has set up justice on the earth.
The coastlands will wait for His teachings.
Isaiah 42:1-4

The Lord God created the heavens and stretched them out.
He shaped the earth and all that comes from it.
He gave life to the people who are on it
and breath to those who walk on it.

This is what the Lord God says:
I, the Lord, have called you to do what is right.
I will take hold of your hand.
I will protect you.
I will appoint you as My promise to the peole
and My light to the nations.
You will give sight to the blind
bring prisoners out of prisons,
and bring those who live in darkness out of dungeons.

Bible - Truths

And we have known and believed the love that God has in us. God is love, and he who abides in love abides in God, and God in him.

There is no fear in love, but perfect love casts out fear, because fear has torment. He who fears has not been perfected in love. 1John 4:16-18 The Bible says that God is LOVE... And in the same verse it says that there is no fear in love. They are opposites in the Kingdom. If we are operating in fear we are working for the enemy even if we think we are doing something 'righteous'. This would count especially in cases where we care too much what others think of us - if we are fearing people more than we fear God we are people pleasing. Having respect and love for another person is NOT the same as people pleasing and sometimes when we are immature in love we can mistake the two. We need to learn how to have respect and lov...

The Dogwood Tree

Here is a small reminder of what happened on Good Friday long ago. The dogwood was the tree chosen to construct the Cross that would be used to take the body of Jesus. Even though His body may have been taken from this earth, His spirit remains and every spring we are blessed with a reminder of the events that unfolded on that fateful weekend. The blooms often appear in the shape of a Cross with holes in the tips of the pedals signifying the nails that were driven into the Cross. If you look closely at these holes you can notice a faint red stain representing the Blood. In the center you will find a green bloom symbolizing the crown of thorns placed on the head of Jesus. The dogwood is more than a tree…it is a representation of life. With every spring we are reminded of what God did for us and given the chance to be reborn and start a new life as “children of God”. (John 3:1)
