From One of My Mama’s Journals – 2012

With two posts to go to reach my goal for the year 2017, on December 31, 2017, I am going to write from one of my mother’s journals. She’s in heaven now but her words are still heard loud and clear. She preached for over fifty years…in honor of my mom, here ya go!
WORDS
Words can be destructive, if they are not faith words.
Let the words of my mouth, and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in thy sight, Oh, Lord my strength and my redeemer.
Words heal or kill.
Don’t yell, when you are angry people are watching, we can be a good or a bad influence.
Gen.1:1 In the beginning God, created the heaven and the earth
Gen. 1:3 God spoke and said: Let there be light—and there was light…
Gen. 1:6 God said, Let there be a firmament in the midst of the waters and let it divide the waters from the waters
Gen. 1:9 God said, Let the waters under the heaven be gathered together unto one place and let the dry land appear and it was so.
John 8:31 and 32 Jesus said to the Jews which believed on Him…If you continue in my word, then are ye my disciples indeed. And ye shall know the truth and the truth shall make you free.
John 8:31…If ye continue in my words…Jesus never encouraged his disciples to place confidence in the mere fact of past faith or experience, It is only as we continue in HIS WORD that confidence in salvation is warranted. Genuine Disciples of Christ continue to obey the words of Christ.
John 15:6 New International Version (NIV) If you do not remain in me, you are like a branch that is thrown away and withers; such branches are picked up, thrown into the fire and burned.
Prayer: “Lord, help us to continue in your word. Let your word abide in us richly, so that we will not back slide or offend you. You are able to keep that which we have committed unto you, I love you Lord Jesus.

I love the Lord Jesus Christ and am passionate about writing. I hope you enjoy the blog and come to visit often. Then the Lord answered me and said: “Write the vision And make it plain on tablets, That he may run who reads it. For the vision is yet for an appointed time; But at the end it will speak, and it will not lie. Though it tarries, wait for it; Because it will surely come, It will not tarry. “Behold the proud, His soul is not upright in him; But the just shall live by his faith. Habakkuk 2: 2-4
