Wednesday March 9, 2016 thought for the day

 

HERE ARE MY THOUGHTS FOR THE DAY

1-Bible study is not an end in itself, it is a means to an end-

2-Think of God's word as God's voice-

3-God's assistance is not always immediate but it is always sure-

4-Gaining Biblical knowledge has 2 inherent dangers-pride and narrow mindedness-

5-For a balanced christian life there must be discernment along with knowledge-

 

STRANGE THOUGHT-You know you are getting old when everything either dries up or leaks-

 

I'VE LEARNED-Give, even when you know you most likely will not get anything back-

 

DID YOU KNOW-Sheep's milk is used to produce Roquefort cheese-

 

5 THINGS I WANT TO KNOW

1-Because we live in a world where evil abounds, and where war and terrorism always threatens, is God really in control?

2-The priest Eli had two sons who were evil, but he did little to correct them.  Why did he not punish them?

3-How old was Samuel when God first audibly spoke to him?

4-Is failing to pray for others a sin?

5-In the Bible, did God ever ask anyone to make vows or oaths?

 

BIBLE TRIVIA-Who said  “Samson, the Philistines are here!”

Answer for today     Delilah     Judges 16:20

 

SCRIPTURE FOR THE DAY  2 Thessalonians 3-5

³ But the Lord is faithful and will give you strength and will protect you from the Evil One. ⁴ The Lord makes us feel sure that you are doing and will continue to do the things we told you. ⁵ May the Lord lead your hearts into God’s love and Christ’s patience.

 

 

PRAYER FOR THE DAY

Jesus, thank you that you understand my pain and identify with it.  Today, I choose to trust you.  You are faithful.  Amen
