Posted by | Daily Bible Verse | No Comments

For indeed, those who are far from You shall perish; You have destroyed all those who desert You for harlotry. But it is good for me to draw near to God; I have put my trust in the Lord God, that I may declare all Your works.

Pick Up Lines

Posted by | Life Blogs | No Comments

A new twist to a blog from Grace And Works. Something a little different. Something that, believe it or not, has a point. So hang in there and let’s have some fun with this. Most of these are golden oldies–feel free to laugh!

You have beautiful hair.

You have a twinkle in your eyes.

Would you like to dance?

Can I buy you a drink?

Would you like to go out for dinner?

If I told you you have a nice body, would you hold it against me?

What time do you get off work?

What kind of work do you do?

Did you come here by yourself?

Nice outfit!!

You have the sexiest dimples.

I told you these were going to golden oldies!! You see I’ve been married for almost 50 years and I’m a little out of touch as to what Pick Up Lines are today. Now that you have come this far with me, I’ll make my point.

God has the greatest Pick Up Line ever!! If you will repent, be baptized, and obey my commands, I’ll build you a home and take you there with me. How’s that for an all time great Pick Up Line?

Have a GREAT week!! SMILE God loves YOU!!

Create in me a clean heart, O God, and renew a steadfast spirit within me. Do not cast me away from Your presence, and do not take Your Holy Spirit from me. Restore to me the joy of Your salvation, and uphold me by Your generous Spirit.

The ‘Ol Tool Shed

Posted by | Life Blogs | No Comments

I was looking at a neighbor’s tool shed the other day and it was piled to the ceiling with “Stuff”. I’d wager they don’t have much of an idea what is in there. I’m sure there are some of you in the same situation. Some, however know exactly what is in the shed. There are all kinds of things we put in there, fertilizer for the plants and yard, lawnmowers, tools, holiday supplies, clothes, pots and pans, hedge trimmers, extension cords, jumper cables, and the list goes on. There are times the shed needs cleaned out and you think to yourself, what am I going to do with all this “Stuff’? Maybe a yard sale? Maybe we’ll just give it to the garbage man? Maybe just give it away? After all one person’s junk is another person’s treasure. Whatever the case, it just has to be gone!!

Now for the REAL question. What about your personal tool shed? What do you have stored away? Grudges? Sorrow? Family issues? Job problems? Health issues? Money woes? Discouraged? Depressed? Drug/Alcohol problems? Homosexuality? Just what is in there? You can probably add to this list. Soooo, what to do? You need to clean house. Call the garbage man? NO. Have a sale? NO. Give them to someone else? NO. Who would want your problems? They certainly aren’t treasures for someone else!!.

After you have given this much thought, you call on God. You start talking to Him through prayer and one by one He accepts your garbage. Pretty soon you have your “house” cleaned. God will never leave you or forsake you no matter how bad things seem to be. Get all the stress out of your life!! Start now and you’ll be surprised how quick God has all the issues and you are free from the burdens.

Have a good day all. SMILE God loves YOU!!

Now may the God of peace who brought up our Lord Jesus from the dead, that great Shepard of the sheep, through the blood of the everlasting covenant, make you complete in every good work to do His will, working in you what is well pleasing in His sight, through Jesus Christ, to whom be glory forever and ever, Amen.
