1 Peter 1:14-15 New King James Version 14 as obedient children, not conforming yourselves to the former lusts, as in your ignorance; 15 but as He who called you is holy, you also be holy in all your conduct, GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! I found this morning scripture incredibly challenging, encouraging, and yes convicting. I found it this way, because I and I believe many of you as well too, suffer from what Peter was experiencing, and I wonder about what's gonna happen to the person next to me that's a Christian. Usually, it's because either I'm just outright nosey, or I'm being unjustly, unnecessarily, and unbiblically compared to another person. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional really got me to thinking about this particular issue, and how important it is to focus on following Jesus, and Jesus alone. So, I'd like to share those questions with you tonight, and I pray that they will get you to thinking about what it means to just simply follow Jesus and make our focus on him. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge you in this area. How are you tempted to compare your faith walk with others? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will help you to see how important it is to keep your focus on Jesus and not on others around you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to just simply follow that simple request that Jesus gives all of us, and that is to just “Follow Me!” 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and i pray that it will help you and encourage you to make your focus Jesus and Jesus only. How will you keep your focus on Jesus today? I think it starts with asking Jesus to first and foremost help you to not only keep your eyes on Him, but help you remember that in whatever you are doing, whether it's cleaning toilets, sweeping floors, flipping burgers, singing in the choir, or any activity that you do in church for the Lord, to remember that you are to do it for the glory of God. I pray especially that you follow these very important words from Warren Wiersbe on this matter, when he says, “God has His plan for us; He also has plans for our Christian friends and associates. How He works in their lives is His business. Our business is to follow Him as He leads us (see Rom. 14:1-13).” In short, my friends, we need to be focusing on following Jesus. In short, we need to focus on our faith journey with God, and what God is doing with us, not the journeys of others. UNTIL FRIDAY: HAVE A VERY TRANQUIL AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

1 Timothy 2:1-2 New King James Version 2 Therefore I [a]exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in [b]authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and [c]reverence. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! Why do you think God calls His people to pray for everyone? As I stated this morning, I think that God calls His people to pray for everyone, because pure and simple they need it. They need the prayers of righteous Saints so badly right now, it's not funny, and as such, I believe we need to start praying for them. I'd like to share some things God showed me from his word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and i pray that what I share with you will light a fire in your heart to come before the Lord in prayer not just for yourself, but for everyone around you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to answer that urgent call for all of us to pray! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it motivates your heart to want to pray for others. Who beyond your own circle can you pray for? Maybe you know somebody that's not in your normal circle so to speak that needs prayer, and this is your opportunity to be a witness for Christ in praying for that person. Maybe God is burdening you to pray for some situation that's going on in your town, county, or state that affects not just you as a Christian but affects everyone. Don't be afraid to go before the Lord in prayer and seek His face on this issue. Pray diligently and fervently for your leaders, and for everyone around you, because bottom line they really do need it. Remember my friends, that no matter what type of prayer it is, God will hear it and answer, because He hears all of our prayers! UNTIL THURSDAY: HAVE A BLESSED, PEACEFUL, AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Romans 8:38-39 New King James Version 38 For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angels nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come, 39 nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord. THAT NO ONE CAN SEPARATE US FROM!!! GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR FRIENDS!!! There's something about this passage out of Jeremiah that always encourages my heart, because there are times, I need to be reminded that God loves me unconditionally. That when I feel worthless for some stupid reason, feel like I've let God down (I'm talking having sinned and confessed it), and the devil is whispering in my ear that God no longer loves me, I’m reminded of this passage, and the many other verses that talks about God's love for me, and I can tell Satan to go take a hike. Something in what James Banks, this morning's devotional writer stated when it comes to God’s powerful and unconditional love, really got me as well, and that was the following: “Sometimes we can feel awkward when we openly express affection for others. But the Bible, by contrast, doesn't hold back on its presentation of God's love.” I guess that's why the questions from this morning's devotional are so encouraging to me, in particular this first one, and I’d like to share it with you tonight. Please read this question very carefully, and I pray that God will encourage your heart through it too. What are some of the ways God has loved you? Interesting question, isn't it? I thought about that question today as well as so many things out of God's Word in regard to this, and I'd like to share what God showed me through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to see how fully and personally Jesus loves you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn about this precious, uncountable, unconditional, full, and reckless love! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will motivate and encourage you to want to return that love to others. How can you return His love today? I pray Tonight, that you will not be afraid to fully express God's love for others to them. That you will want to love God with your life and everything, by sharing the good news of Jesus Christ with others. Share with them how God loves them unconditionally, and that love never runs out! After all, He showed us the ultimate expression of God's restorative love, by being willing to die on the cross for us, and as James banks states so well, “He’s the personification of God's desire to call a wayward world to himself.” Let's not be afraid to share that love today! UNTIL WEDNESDAY EVERYONE: HAVE A SAFE, RESTFUL, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

John 3:16 New King James Version 16 For God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! While reading this morning's passage of scripture, two very beautiful songs came to my mind. One is called “Hallelujah what a savior”, and another one it's a very beautiful song entitled, “Love Was When” songs especially in reading this passage of scripture, because what God did for us was an ultimate act of love, and I can't help but thank Him for it. Every day that I live as a redeemed child of God, I can't help but be overwhelmed, full of joy and gratitude for what Christ did for me, and I want to show that love that I have for God to others. I want them to know the good news of Jesus Christ, and how they can be set free from their sin, and I pray that that's something you as a redeemed child of God want too. Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God has shown me throughout the years in regard to Romans 5:6-8, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you shows you just what it means to be empowered in Christ to love others, the same way He loves us. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn just how much God was willing to save you through the willing savior of Jesus Christ! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that they get you to not only think about just what Jesus did for you, but I pray that you'll learn to appreciate it, that you will choose to be empowered through Christ Jesus to love other sacrificially through your actions as well as your words. That bottom line, you will strive to be the hands and feet of Christ Jesus to this lost and dying world. How do you feel when you consider the price Jesus willingly paid because He loves you? How can you put the needs of others before yourself this week? I pray that you will ask God every day, to show you how you can put the needs of others before yourself, while maintaining healthy boundaries and not being taken advantage of. I pray that you will be inspired to show sacrificial love, and be empowered to show love to others through your actions as well as your words every day. Most of all, I pray that if there's anyone out there, that does not know Christ as savior, that you will come to know Him, and the powerful, never-ending love that He is willing to offer you today. All you need to do, is admit that you're a Sinner, that you need a savior, and let Him in your heart today. Check out this link below, that will explain this further, and I pray that you will allow God to show you that deep, powerful love, by making Him your savior today! https://www.ccphilly.org/do-you-know-... UNTIL TUESDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A MAJESTICALLY BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 80:19 New King James Version 19 Restore us, O LORD God of hosts; Cause Your face to shine, And we shall be saved! THE QUESTION IS WHAT’S KEEPING US FROM ASKING??? GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY FRIENDS!!! I thought deeply about the questions in this morning's devotional, but in particular I thought about the questions Arthur was asking, and I had to share them with you tonight. I ask that you please read these questions very carefully and ask God to Not only speak to you through them, but to show you where you need His restoration. When have you experienced the restorative, reviving work of God? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me not just from this passage of scripture but from other passages from His Word, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will stir your heart to want to seek God's restoration in your life, for whatever area you may need it in, and that you will do so today. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to receive that restoration! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning’s devotional, and I pray that it will challenging to examine your heart, so that you will see your need for restoration and whatever area of your life you need it for and receive it. What areas of your life need restoration now? I pray that if you're feeling dull, distant, or disconnected from God, that if your joy and satisfaction and not just life but in Christ is missing, that you seek God for His healing in this area. Is your alignment with Jesus and His purposes for your life missing? If so, come before the Lord, and ask for His restoration. Lastly, I want to leave you with this simple prayer, and I pray that you will allow God to speak to you through it. That you will pray this prayer yourself and make it your focus not just today but every day. “Heavenly Father, I'm humbly asking, that You please bring a true, genuine, renewal, restoration, and revival to our land today, and let it begin with me.” UNTIL MONDAY: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 45:8 New King James Version 8 All Your garments are scented with myrrh and aloes and cassia, Out of the ivory palaces, by which they have made You glad. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! Of all the ironies, as we see in this passage of scripture, each of these gifts had a significant meaning and value and I believe God wanted us to know that. Gold in particular represents royalty. It was acknowledging Jesus’ as the king of kings. Frankincense represented divinity. It purposely highlighted Jesus’ divine nature and His role as our high priest. So now we come to the last gift, which is myrrh. Do you know what the significance is of that particular perfume? Well, in case you didn't know, myrrh had a very important purpose back in biblical times, because it was a type of embalming fluid/ointment that was used to prepare dead bodies with. I pondered the meaning behind these gifts, especially the gift of murder, but also some of the things that I was reading in this morning's scripture, and to say I was blown away by what God showed me, would be an understatement. I was especially in deep flood the questions from this morning’s devotional, I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will speak to you through them as well. How do you feel when you ponder the truth that Jesus was born to die for you? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from this passage of scripture, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you causes you to think about the significance not just behind these gifts, but what it means for Jesus to have given his life for you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn the true purpose and meaning of myrrh! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it gets you to deeply thinking about what Jesus did for you, and that you'll want to live your life in gratitude over it. How does His resurrection inspire you? I pray tonight my friends, that as you think about this day of Epiphany, as you think about these wise men, and the joy that they had in finding the true king of kings, and Lord of Lords, the resurrected savior, and that you take that joy and boldly live it out, not just today but every day. Live out the last words of the song, “We Three Kings of Orient Are”, when you say “Alleluia, Alleluia,/sounds through the earth and skies.” Most of all, I pray that you are not afraid to let the Holy Spirit help you live your life in gratitude every day, for Jesus giving his life for you, and that you share that good news with others. UNTIL SUNDAY: HAVE A RESTFUL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Joshua 24:15 New King James Version 15 And if it seems evil to you to serve the LORD, choose for yourselves this day whom you will serve, whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of [a]the River, or the gods of the Amorites, in whose land you dwell. But as for me and my house, we will serve the LORD.” GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY FRIENDS!!! I have to say guys, that this passenger scripture from this morning really not only challenged me, but it stirred something in my heart concerning the issue of how we are at a crossroads. We as individuals, as well as a nation are at a crossroads. It's a crossroads in which there are so many paths, so many places to go, that it's all confusing. We want to choose God's path for us, but how do we do it? I think of the fact that as a nation right now we're headed down the path of destruction. What I mean is that there are people who have chosen to follow self over God, and the results of what I see from it so far, are not good. I think that's why I'm very incredibly burdened to share what God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will encourage you to look to God for all of your decision making. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn about this important truth for yourself! 😊 So, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that they will challenge you to choose God's path over your own. Where do you need direction today? How might God be revealing Himself to you? I pray tonight, that if you are at a crossroads in a particular area of your life, if you are facing a situation in which you don't know what choice to make, I urge you to seek the Lord and His wisdom for whatever it may be. I pray that you will seek God's wisdom, guidance, and direction for whatever decision/choice you are making, and that if someone, even someone that claims to be speaking for God, is trying to pressure, seduce, or intimidate you into doing otherwise, that you ask God for the courage to stand up against them. Stand strong in your faith and convictions, even if it costs you everything, but make sure that the choice you make is a wise one.

1 Timothy 2:1-3 New King James Version 2 Therefore I [a]exhort first of all that supplications, prayers, intercessions, and giving of thanks be made for all men, 2 for kings and all who are in [b]authority, that we may lead a quiet and peaceable life in all godliness and [c]reverence. 3 For this is good and acceptable in the sight of God our Savior, GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR ONES!!! I thought about resources of scripture very carefully, as well as the questions from this morning's devotional, and I’d like to ask these questions from this morning's devotional of all of you tonight. I pray that these questions really get you to thinking about what it means to be a quiet and faithful follower of Jesus Christ, and that you're not afraid to live it out. How should your faith affect the way you work? In what ways is being a faithful worker a powerful testimony? I know they're very interesting questions guys, and you probably wonder to yourself what it means to live a quiet faithful life. You wonder just what does it mean to live a life in which you are showing Christ Jesus to others, but without making a spectacle of yourself? That's what we're gonna talk about in this vlog tonight my friends, and I pray that what I share with you will help you see just how important it is, how awesome it is to live a life of quiet faithfulness for Christ. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends, and learn how to live a quiet, faithful, consistent, honorable, and full of integrity life for Christ Jesus to this lost and dying world! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to challenge you to think about what it means to be a quiet faithful worker for the Lord, and not for anything or anyone else. I challenge you to serve the Lord with all your heart, soul, might, and strength, whether you are mopping floors, flipping burgers, working in a convenience store, being a housekeeper, or even a CEO. If you are physically able to work, then do so! Don't be dependent on other people if you can physically work, but when you do work, do it as unto the Lord. Do what Colossians 4 states in doing your job as unto the Lord, and not to men. Be quiet and faithful in the work that you do, so that others will see Christ Jesus in you. UNTIL FRIDAY GANG: HAVE A VERY RESTFUL AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 33:18 New King James Version 18 Behold, the eye of the LORD is on those who fear Him, On those who hope in His mercy, GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! This is coming straight from my heart guys, and I don't want to say anything to right here, but I really needed what I read from God's word this morning. I needed these precious promises, these reminders of God's power, sovereignty, love, and the hope that I have in Him, because Ricky and I have been going through an awful lot. Last year, I was in the hospital, where had to have emergency surgery for an umbilical hernia that produced a small bowel obstruction, and we're dealing with the repercussions of it. I see the way the world is right now, and how vile, hate filled, and despicable people are, and I sometimes want to give up hope. But then I need to be reminded through God's word, of the true hope I have in Christ Jesus, and how to look to the vertical and not the horizontal in life. Is it any wonder why these questions from this morning's devotional are really touching my heart today! What I'd like to do guys, is share these questions from this morning’s devotional, because I think they're important and showing how vital it is to not only have hope in God, but to share it with others. To see God in the midst of nature and everything that He is created, knowing that He spoke it and it came into existence. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that you'll see this truth for yourself. How has God used nature to affirm your hope in Him? I'd like to share some things that God showed me out of His Word with all of you tonight, through this vlog I'd like to share with you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you not only gives you hope in God, but that you'll want to share that hope and Christ with others. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how you can be part of God's care team as his hope spotter! 😊 So, everyone, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it motivates you to be God's hope spotter. How can you serve as part of His care team? My prayer for you with this final question, is that you ask God for ways in which you can serve Him as part of His care team, so that you can be used of God to bring hope to others. Please don't let what you see in this world today, or the behaviors of others around you, cause you distress, despair, or make you wanna give up, because you think you can't make a difference. Ask God to show you where you could be part of His care team, so that you can bring the hope that God truly offers to everyone around you. Be God's hope spotter! UNTIL THURSDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A HOPE-FILLED AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Ecclesiastes 1:9 New King James Version 9 That which has been is what will be, That which is done is what will be done, And there is nothing new under the sun. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYBODY!!! “Sunrise, sunset Sunrise, sunset Swiftly flow the days Seedlings turn overnight to sunflowers Blossoming even as we gaze.” These are the words to a very beautiful, but also poignant song in the musical, Fiddler On The Roof, that God brought to my mind as I was reading this morning's passage of scripture. It may sound weird guys, but in this song, Tevia and Goldie, are reminiscing about things they see in their life, in particular how they are witnessing their children growing up. They sing this in the moment that their oldest is going to get married, and it sticks in my mind big time right now. It's a reminder to me of what Solomon was saying in this morning scripture, on how the sun rises, the sun sets, but also how in the midst of all of the cycle of life, how there's nothing new under the sun, and God's not surprised by what goes on. Tonight, my friends, I wanna go about this evening post a little different, and share some things with you that God showed me from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you open your eyes to see that apart from God, life is truly meaningless and empty, and that He is the only real true source of fulfillment and satisfaction. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn this precious truth for yourself! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that they will challenge you to seek God first, and to make Him your first priority. What occupies your time and what meaning does it hold? How might you change your priorities to follow Jesus? I've said this before and I'm gonna continue to say it again, the only true source of joy, satisfaction, fulfillment, and happiness, is found in Jesus Christ! That when we live this life apart from God, we are adrift in an endless, never satisfied sea, that produces nothing but heartache and pain. It's only when we submit ourselves to the Lord, when we place our faith and trust in Christ Jesus to save us, and follow Him, that we find what we are really longing for. My prayer for all of you, is that you choose to seek Jesus for all of your longings, Make Him your first priority, and if you don't know Christ, I invite you to accept Him as your savior today, and watch how He will fulfill every longing, need, want, and more so in your heart. https://www.ccphilly.org/do-you-know-...

2 Corinthians 5:17 New King James Version 17 Therefore, if anyone is in Christ, he is a new creation; old things have passed away; behold, all things have become new. I HAVE A BRAND-NEW IDENTITY IN CHRIST!!! GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA, AND HAPPY NEW YEAR EVERYONE!!! I really love how Paul states that when we come to know Christ as savior, we are made new creations in Him, and that the old things in our lives, the attitudes, the things that we used to do, pass away so to speak and we no longer want to do them. I especially love the fact that because I know Christ is my savior, I'm God's redeemed child, and they can never be plucked out of his hand. That a new reality exists for me, where I'm not the same anymore, but I am a new creation in Christ Jesus, with a brand-new identity in Him. It's why I'm so encouraged, as well as motivated by God through these questions from this morning's devotional and I'd like to share them with you today. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge and motivate you through them too. What does it mean to you that a new beginning is possible with God? Tonight, everyone, I'd like to share some thoughts God gave me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you lets you know about that new identity that you have in Christ, the new identity and purpose that God is giving you, so that you will want to share the good news of Jesus with others. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how you can share with others about the brand-new identity that you have in Christ, and how you're not the same anymore! 😊 So, my dear friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this last question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will motivate you to want to live as the redeemed child of God that you are. How can you live as His “new creation”? I pray every day for myself and for all of you, that as we begin this new year, we have a strong desire, motivation, and more so to point others to Christ Jesus, so that they can become new creations in Christ too. I also want to encourage those who don't know Christ as savior to know that your sins can be forgiven and forgotten under the precious blood of Jesus Christ, and that He can and will make you a new creation in Him! Here's a link to know more about this wonderful life you can have in Christ Jesus, and I pray that you will take advantage of that today. https://www.ccphilly.org/do-you-know-...

2 Thessalonians 2:16-17 New King James Version 16 Now may our Lord Jesus Christ Himself, and our God and Father, who has loved us and given us everlasting consolation and good hope by grace, 17 comfort your hearts and [a]establish you in every good word and work. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY FRIENDS!!!Well, we’re closing out 2023, and starting on 2024, and I can't help but really be especially grateful for everything that God has been doing not just in our lives, but in my families as well. That despite all the nerve-wracking things that have taken place with my family this year, my Heavenly Father, has never stopped being there for my mom and my family, and that's something I'm very grateful for. I am especially full of gratitude for how God has been there for Ricky and I this year, not just with the identity theft that happened, but for how God really came through for me when I was in the hospital and had to have that emergency surgery. These are things that I am very grateful for, and I pray that you have things to be grateful for from 2023 as well. There's something about this morning's passage of scripture, that really got me to thinking about how I want others to see me. How I want to be known as first and foremost a follower of Christ. I want to be known as someone who truly followed the Lord with all her heart, and that I lived out the faith I say I had. I think that's why these questions from this morning's devotional were especially challenging to me, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions carefully, and I pray that God will challenge you through these questions too. For what Christ like attributes would you like to be known? Tonight, my friends, I’d like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to want Christ to work His perfect will and way in you. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how God can and WILL work in you what's pleasing to Him! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I'd like to leave you with this last question from this morning’s devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to never be afraid to live out the faith that you say you have. How can you encourage others to seek God's righteousness? I encourage you to start living out the faith that you say you have, allow God to actively grow the fruit of righteousness in your hearts, because it will take a lifetime for all of it to fully come to fruition. Yes, we're gonna stumble and fall in this journey, but when we choose to look forward and not backwards, keeping our eyes set on God, we will be established and strengthened in Him, and we will be in that wonderful city that is to come, where God's righteousness will reign. UNTIL MONDAY, OR NEXT YEAR, GANG: HAVE A VERY BLESSED AND SWEET EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Hebrews 4:16 New King James Version 16 Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! There was something very precious about this morning scripture, that really encouraged me, because as I have said once or twice before, I think it's important that we are honest and transparent to God with our emotions. To not be afraid to come boldly before His throne of grace, so that we can truly find that mercy and grace to help in time of need. That it's OK to feel fear, anger, hurt, or whatever negative emotion that you're experiencing. That you can take all those emotions, and lay them at the feet of the savior, being honest and prayerful in how you feel, knowing that God is bringing about good through all of it, but most of all that He IS being glorified through it all. I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional really encouraged my heart, and I’d like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will encourage your heart through them as He is me. What experiences have prompted prayers for God to be honored? What I'd like to do tonight my friends, share some things that God showed me from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to see that you can be raw, honest, and transparent in your emotions to God when you come to Him in prayer.

What advice would you give to others facing such situations? I pray tonight, that you will be able to find the strength and the courage, to be honest with God in your prayers. To know that you can speak with Him honestly and personally, knowing that He hears, understands, and will never get mad at you for expressing your honest feelings. If you are struggling in some particular area and feel like you can't say what you need to say to God, ask Him for the courage to say it. Don't be afraid to express your pain, fear, struggles, and disappointments, to Him, but know that God will not only listen to what you’re saying, but that He values your honest heart. UNTIL SUNDAY MY FRIENDS: TRANQUIL, SWEET, AND BLESSED DREAMS IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! I know this might be a difficult thing to ask guys, but this particular question from this morning's devotional really touched my heart, and I wanna share it with you tonight. Please read this question very carefully, and I pray that God will encourage you through it too. What difficulty are you enduring right now? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God has shown me, not just from this morning scripture, but from other things I’ve read from His Word, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, helps you to see that despite all the difficulties, curveballs, hardships, trauma, and everything else that hits us in the Christian life, that with Christ he will provide what we need so we can persevere and keep running. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to run this race and don't give up! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to look to the Lord for your strength, when you feel like you want to give up. What can you do to remain faithful to God as you undergo testing? My prayer for all of you, is that when you were faced with testing, when you are going through trauma, trials, hardships, and every curveball and monkey wrench that Satan can throw at you, that you look to the Lord for all of your strength. Remember that God is still in control. God is still taking care of you and is still on the throne, so you can be assured that He hasn't forgotten you. Ask God every day, to help you remember, that suffering does produce perseverance; perseverance produces character; and character, hope. Remember, that as a redeemed child of God, you have joy unspeakable and full of glory, and that God will use that to provide what you need to persevere in this life. After all, being conformed to the image of Christ doesn't happen when everything is unicorns, sunshine, and rainbows. Remember all the moments where God has been there for you before, cling to those memories, as well as the precious truths from God's word that promise that He will be there for you and will never leave you or forsake you. Choose to wait on and hope in God! SO, UNTIL SATURDAY MY DEAR FRIENDS: HAVE A RESTFUL, SWEEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Micah 6:8 New King James Version 8 He has shown you, O man, what is good; And what does the LORD require of you But to do justly, To love [a]mercy, And to walk humbly with your God? AND HELP ME TO TREAT THEM WITH DIGNITY, HONOR, AND CARE!!! GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA, GANG!!! God really spoke to my heart through this morning's passage of scripture, because first and foremost, I feel like I fit into the category of the needy. I state that, because my husband and I are existing on Social Security, and we struggle every day. I empathize with the widows and orphans out there, because many of them are struggling like we are, but also some of them have it worse than us. I thought about how important it is to make sure that we take care of those who are genuinely in need, and to make sure that we're treating them with dignity and care, and I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional so challenged my heart today. As such, I'd like to share these questions with all of you, and I pray that these questions will challenge your heart too. How has God supplied your needs through others? Tonight, my friends, I would like to share some things that God showed me from his word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you challenges you to really rethink your views, and your actions toward those who are vulnerable and genuinely in need. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourself how you can be used of the Lord to not only have your eyes opened to the needs of those, but how you can treat them with dignity, honor, and care! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will be used of God to motivate you to be an agent of love, compassion, and mercy to someone who is genuinely in need. Whose needs might you be able to supply? Do you have a neighbor, coworker, or maybe someone in your church that has a particular need? If so, maybe either you could help meet that need, or you know of someone that can. If you know of someone that can, don't shut your heart and your mouth up over it, because you have a preconceived notion about that needy person, but be God's hands and feet to that person and help them! Don't be the heartless, bigoted, disgraceful person who shuts their hand toward the genuinely needy, the vulnerable, helpless, and so much more. Be willing to reach out to the widows, orphans, and anyone who is in true need, because we are called to do justice and love mercy to all. Ask God today to open your eyes to see their need, and act on it! UNTIL FRIDAY: HAVE A VERY BLESSED AND RESTFUL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Proverbs 3:17-18 New King James Version 17 Her ways are ways of pleasantness, And all her paths are peace. 18 She is a tree of life to those who take hold of her, And happy are all who [a]retain her. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! I was incredibly encouraged as well as challenged by this morning scripture, because I can recall moments in my life, because I've listened to the Lord over a very important matter, that I wind up being spared something very seriously harmful. I can think of quite a few moments in my life, where God has spared me from some serious heartache, harm, and yes, I believe death, because I've listened to him and not to others. I think that's why these questions from this morning’s devotional really challenge my heart, but also inspired me to ask a question of my own, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please allow me to ask this question, and I pray that God will challenge your heart through it. When has following God's wisdom saved your life? As I said before, I have had quite a few moments in this area where listening to the Lord has been more than beneficial to me. As a matter of fact, it saved my life! What I'd like to do right now, is share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning on this very issue, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, I pray that what I share with you will challenge you to listen to God and follow His path and wisdom for your life too. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourself how God's wisdom truly does save lives! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these questions from this morning’s devotional, and I pray that God will not only challenge your heart to want to know his wisdom for you, but that you will want to live out that wisdom in your life and value it every day. How Much do you value wisdom? How can you use wisdom to help someone today? I pray tonight that if God is speaking to you on an important matter, whether it's your job, a relationship, or any situation that you are in, that you will listen to what God is saying to you and act on it. Maybe God is directing you to share the gospel with someone that you normally wouldn't share it with. Or He's telling you to get away from a toxic person, whether it's a spouse, parent, or yes, even a friend. He could also be telling you to walk away from a job you're in, because they're asking you to do something that's dishonoring to Him. Whatever it is, listen to God and OBEY HIM! You never know the life that you may save. It may be your own, and/or someone else’s. UNTIL THURSDAY: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Luke 2:51 New King James Version 51 Then He went down with them and came to Nazareth, and was [a]subject to them, but His mother kept all these things in her heart. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! When are you prone to feeling a “low” after a “high”? This question really got to me my friends, because I've felt the “lows” after a lot of “highs” in my life and let me tell you it's not quite a fun feeling. I think I especially feel these things after something good happens. I feel these things after a spiritual high of maybe somebody coming to know Christ, or hearing of a spiritual awakening where people are coming to know Christ and those who do know Christ, they're rededicating themselves to Him. But it's when these things occur, that the “other shoe drops”, and that's when the “lows” begin. I think that's why, I feel so burdened of the Lord to share some things that are on my heart through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, will encourage you to continue pondering, as well as celebrating the savior of the world, Jesus Christ. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to carry Christ not just after Christmas, but all year long! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will help you continue to ponder and focus on the One who came to redeem us. How can you ponder today all that Jesus has brought into the world? For me guys, I think that this can be accomplished through being willing to take time every day to come to the Lord in prayer. Come to Him with a heart of gratitude and praise thanking Him not just for the fact that He was born into this world to save us from sin, but also for the goodness, the compassion, love, mercy, and all the blessings that He’s bestowed on us. Choose to take some time not just today but every day to be like Mary, and face everything that takes place in our lives, choosing to ponder, and praise the One who came into our world as the sinless, spotless, Lamb of God to redeem us from sin, but also forever brightens our world, our days, lows and highs, our everything, with His presence, because that's who we should be focusing on. Trust Him with our past, present, and yes even our future, because He holds us in the palm of His hand and will never let us go. UNTIL WEDNESDAY MY DEAR ONES: HAVE A TRULY BLESSED AND TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Luke 2:11 New King James Version 11 For there is born to you this day in the city of David a Savior, who is Christ the Lord. AND IS COMING BACK FOR YOU AND ME!!! MERRY CHRISTMAS IN YESHUA MY DEAR ONES!!! How was everyone’s Christmas?? I got to thinking about this morning scripture, and how God had everything lined up perfectly for His Son to be born. How he used a Roman emperor, to create a census that would bring Mary and Joseph to Bethlehem, how every prophecy related to Jesus, became a reality, especially in the sacrifice that He would make for you and I, and that's something I am very grateful for. I think that's why I really love these questions from this morning's devotional, because they got me to thinking about the reality of Jesus’ birth. They got me to thinking about how every prophecy pertaining to His birth, His life on this earth, as well as His death, burial, and resurrection, became a reality, and that has been grateful for my salvation. I think it's why I'd like to share these questions from this morning's devotional with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you, will challenge you to be grateful and act on that gratitude for the precious gift that God has given us through Jesus. How might you respond in worship to the truth of the prophecies of Christ's birth? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you causes you to appreciate not only the promise of Christ's birth, but the reality of the gift that He offers everyone today. Come join me in this vlog tonight and learn about the Christmas promise that became reality! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it motivates you to want to share that gift with others. How does His promise to return for us impact your decision making? I pray that it motivates you to want to share the good news of Jesus Christ with others. That it puts a fire in you, yearning in you to share the gospel to those you know who need it. Maybe you're the “odd person out” in your family because you're saved and move the Lord, so they call on you as the “religious nut” to say grace at Christmas dinner. Use this as an opportunity to be god's representative and proclaim the name of Jesus. Share with them that today is the day we celebrate the arrival of the one who sacrificed His life on a rugged, nasty cross to set us free from our sins, and that they can have this precious gift too. UNTIL TUESDAY DEAR ONES: HAVE A VERY MERRY AND BLESSED CHRISTMAS EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Matthew 2:9-10 New King James Version 9 When they heard the king, they departed; and behold, the star which they had seen in the East went before them, till it came and stood over where the young Child was. 10 When they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceedingly great joy. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR FRIENDS!!! I had the privilege of doing a really wonderful Bible study through the Time Warp Wife, that focuses on the advent. It's entitled “Quieting Your Heart: An Invitation to Dwell in His Presence This Christmas”, and I wanted to share some things I've learned from this, in particular what I learned about the joy that the wise man had as they were not only searching for Jesus, but most of all as they found Him. I invite you all to join me in this vlog tonight my friends, to learn about these wise men, and about a king who thought he could stop God's plan of redemption. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn about the star that points to Jesus! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these precious questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that they will challenge you to want to be guided by the bright and morning star Himself, and that you will want to live a life that honors Him. In what practical way will you follow Jesus today? What can you do this week to share His love with others? I pray that you will not only remember the REAL reason for this season, but to open your heart and life to the One who can give you the greatest gift of all, and that is Salvation in Jesus Christ!! Come and experience that same joy, that same peace, and more so, by making that decision to accept Christ as your Savior today. You see we are all lost in sin, and God stated that a price needed to be paid for our sins, because otherwise we would all wind up lost in Hell forever. So, God the Son, Jesus Himself stepped in and said, “I’ll do it!” How, you ask?? He did this, by coming to Earth in the form of a human infant, (THE WORD MADE FLESH!!), lived among us as a SINLESS human being, and He WILLINGLY gave His life, by dying on a rugged NASTY cross for the sins of the world. This includes both YOU and ME!! HE died, was buried, and rose again 3 days later, proving that He has power over sin, and death, as well as Satan, but most of all is the Son of God! He is now at the right hand of God the Father and is also at the door of your heart asking to be let in!! I urge you to call on His name today, ask Him to forgive you of whatever sins you’ve committed, and He WILL forgive it!! He doesn’t care what you’ve done, where you’re from, or anything about you, just that you let Him in your heart. Come and let Jesus set you free and accept Christ as your Savior today. Here’s a link to know more about it!! https://www.ccphilly.org/do-you-know-him/ UNTIL MONDAY EVERYONE: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND TRANQUIL CHRISTMAS EVE IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Hebrews 10:24-25 New King James Version 24 And let us consider one another in order to stir up love and good works, 25 not forsaking the assembling of ourselves together, as is the manner of some, but exhorting one another, and so much the more as you see the Day approaching. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR ONES!!! Something that Dave Branon, this morning’s devotional writer was trying to get across, and I believe he got it across very well, was how he says that “Fellowship is a key component of the Christlike life.” How can we be Christlike, unless we are learning to fellowship, associate, and gather with each other as fellow believers. And how can we do this, not only in the midst of the craziness that's going on in our world, but also the ugly sins that are being exposed within the body of Christ? We need that fellowship, but how do we find the fellowship that God wants for us? I think that's why the questions from this morning's devotional were so challenging to my heart tonight, and I'd like to share these questions from this morning's devotional with all of you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that God will challenge your heart through them too. What benefits do you gain from being with believers? I'd like to share some things that I learned from this passage of scripture tonight with all of you, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will challenge you and motivate you to want to be a fellowshipper too. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourself how to be a fellowshipper in Christ! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will motivate you to want to help others experience that fellowship in Christ too. How can you help others experience fellowship in Christ? I pray tonight my friends, that you will ask the Lord to not only show you what it means to be a fellowshipper, but how to be one! Ask God to help you be the one who genuinely and willingly shows love, compassion, mercy, and encouragement to those who need it most. I've stated this before, and I'm gonna state it again, we don't need to be in a building to be fellowshipping. We can fellowship by phone, FaceTime, zoom, or any other method where we can connect online and see and/or talk with each other. We can also be fellowshippers, by praying for each other every day. Be that followshipper and encourager today! UNTIL SUNDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A VERY BLESSED AND PEACEFUL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Ephesians 2:14-16 New King James Version 14 For He Himself is our peace, who has made both one, and has broken down the middle wall of separation, 15 having abolished in His flesh the enmity, that is, the law of commandments contained in ordinances, so as to create in Himself one new man from the two, thus making peace, 16 and that He might reconcile them both to God in one body through the cross, thereby putting to death the enmity. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA EVERYONE!!! As I was reading this morning's passage of scripture, as well as this morning's devotional, I remember very vividly seeing the wall that divided east and West Germany come down in 1989, and there was something about it that really encouraged me. Reading this morning scripture, also encouraged me and motivated me to want to look into areas not just in my life, but out there where there are “walls” that have been put up to keep all of us out from each other if you get my meaning. These questions from this morning's devotional, for example, really got me to thinking about that issue, and I'd like to share them with you tonight. Please read these questions very carefully, and I pray that they challenge you and you're thinking when it comes to the walls that you put up. What dividing walls do you see? How can you help remove them in Jesus’ strength? Tonight, my friends, I'd like to share some things that God showed me from His Word this morning, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that it will get you to thinking about the walls that you put up in your life, as well as the walls that you see around you, and that you will want to take them down. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn about the One who tore down the walls of sin and division, to set us free! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I pray that we will choose to look beyond the differences that are in us, but instead learn to see the similarities. That we choose to start tearing down the walls of division, hate, bias, and any other negative thing that we have towards others, learn to focus on what we have in common, and not on what makes us ‘different’. That commonality is none other than Christ Jesus! That we will be willing to put aside the racial barriers, denomination barriers, or any barrier that you have been taught and/or put up yourself against others, that is not biblical, and learn to see the similarities over the differences. Remember we do have so many things that divide us, but we also need to remember what Galatians 3:28 says, and that no matter if we're male, female, jew, gentile, black, brown, white, yellow, etc. As long as we know Christ as savior, we are all one in Him, so let's start removing the walls! UNTIL SATURDAY: HAVE A SERENE, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Psalm 146:5 New King James Version 5 Happy is he who has the God of Jacob for his help, Whose hope is in the LORD his God, GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA MY DEAR ONES!!! There's something about this Psalm that always gets me, but none more so right now than during this time of year. I've been blessed to take part in a really wonderful devotional on Advent through The Time Warp Wife and God's really encouraged my heart through it. He showed me a great deal of things through this Bible study, in particular with last week's theme of hope, and it's something I'm extremely grateful for. I think that's why when I see the questions from this morning's devotional, I'm not just encouraged, but I'm motivated to want to be part of showing that hope that Christ offers, and I'd like to share these questions with you tonight. Please read this particular question carefully, and I pray that God will help you see the hope that He's offering you through it. How has Jesus helped you process grief while celebrating Christmas? What I'd like to do tonight my friends, is share some things that God showed me not only from this morning scripture, but also from this past week study on hope, through this vlog I’d like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you helps you to see the hope that you have in Christ Jesus. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn for yourselves, how to cling to the true light of hope that you have in Christ Jesus! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this last question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to share the true hope you have in Christ with others. How can you support someone who's grieving this season? My challenge to all of you tonight, my friends, is to ask God to show you someone who is struggling with the grief, trauma, and whatever other emotions that they are feeling this season and be their friend. Send them an encouraging letter, text, message on social media, and maybe even invite them over for Christmas dinner! Let them know that they don't have to be in this alone, that they don't have to go through the loss of a loved one, marriage, or whatever trauma they are experiencing alone, but let them know of the hope that they can have in Christ Jesus. Most of all remember. If life has become overwhelming, you can still have hope as a child of God. If your heart is broken, hope thou in God! If your dreams are crushed, hope thou in God! If the feat of tomorrow has seized you, hope thou in God! Begin to praise Him for the good things that are on the way, knowing that even if you can't see them from your human perspective, God is still on the throne! UNTIL FRIDAY EVERYONE: HAVE A TRULY TRANQUIL EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Isaiah 43:18 New King James Version 18 “Do not remember the former things, Nor consider the things of old. Psalm 103:12 New King James Version 12 As far as the east is from the west, So far has He removed our transgressions from us. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA GANG!!! I really loved reading this morning's passage of scripture, because I needed a reminder from God, that my confessed sin, my repented of sin, is forgiven and forgotten by Him, and not to be afraid to live in the light of that. That when Satan tries to bring up the past in my face, through either distant memories, in the stinging words of someone who wants to bring me down, or in any other way possible, I ask God to help me remember that I am forgiven, that I am God's redeemed child, and to tell Satan to go pound sand. I'd like to share some things that God put on my heart, that he showed me from this passage of scripture, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that it will encourage you to know that no matter what has taken place in your past, no matter what regrets you may have, that confessed and repented of sin, is forgiven and forgotten by God, and that you can live as the redeemed child of God you are forgiven, but never in regret. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how to live forgiven but never in regret! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with these questions from this morning's devotional, and I pray that God will encourage you through them to know that you are a forgiven, redeemed child, and that you have no regrets. What regrets do you harbor in your memory and play over and over again? How can you give them to God and release the past? As I close this post for tonight, I reach out to every redeemed child of God out there that is struggling with ANY wounds of the past, any sins that have been confessed and repented of, to know that you ARE forgiven, and that God has FORGOTTEN them!! Please don't allow Satan, especially through others, to torture you needlessly, unbiblically, and senselessly, with any reminders of already confessed sin, but let them know that you are a redeemed child of God, and to back off! Don't be afraid to REJOICE and KNOW that you are a REDEEMED child of God and to live like it!! UNTIL THURSDAY MY FRIENDS: HAVE A PEACEFUL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

2 Corinthians 12:9 New King James Version 9 And He said to me, “My grace is sufficient for you, for My strength is made perfect in weakness.” Therefore most gladly I will rather boast in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me. GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR ONES!!! Allow me to ask this question of all of you tonight, and I pray that this question from this morning's devotional encourages you to not be afraid of your spiritual scars. What spiritual scars do you have? I know that this is a hard question to ask, but God really challenged my heart with it, and I wanna share what my scars are with you guys, and share how in admitting these scars, and how in humbling ourselves before God in accepting these scars, can give us real victory. I'd like to share some things I learned from God's word on this, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you encourages you to humbly accept your scars. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn the wonderful healing lessons that God has for you from your scars! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to see your scars the way see Christ sees them. Forgiven! How might they symbolize the end of something bad and the start of something new? I pray that whatever scars, wounds, trauma, or surreal ugly situations that you have experienced in your life, that you will not only be willing to admit those scars exist, and humbly allow God to transform you through them. Remember, my friend, that if you know Christ as your savior, that the reality of II Corinthians 5:17 truly applies to you! That you are a redeemed, new creature in Christ, and no one can take that from you! Allow God to take those scars, those wounds, the trauma of your life, and transform them into something beautiful, because that's what God wants to do for you. Take in those lessons from those scars and let them be the beginning of a new life with God. UNTIL WEDNESDAY EVERYBODY: HAVE A TRANQUIL, SWEET, AND BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!!

Isaiah 41:10 New King James Version 10 Fear not, for I am with you; Be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will uphold you with My righteous right hand.’ GOOD EVENING IN YESHUA DEAR FRIENDS!!! As I was reading this very familiar passage of scripture this morning, I deeply thought about the precious promises that God has showed me from His Word throughout the years, as well as the questions from this morning's devotional, they were such an encouragement to my heart, that I wanted to share them with you tonight. I want to start with this first question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it really gets you to think about the fact that God is near to you. Please read this question carefully, and I pray that you will find it encouraging. How can knowing that God is near change your reaction of worry to one of peace? I’d like to share some things that I learned this morning about this passage, through this vlog I'd like to share with all of you tonight, and I pray that what I share with you will encourage you to see that God is near to you, and all you have to do is look to and trust Him to be there. Come join me in this vlog tonight my friends and learn how you can draw near to the One who is ALWAYS near to you! 😊 So, my friends, as I close this post with all of you tonight, I want to leave you with this final question from this morning's devotional, and I pray that it will encourage you to know that you can bring all your cares, concerns, fears, and everything to God in prayer. What specific requests can you present to Him? I'd like to invite you all today, to share with me all your specific prayer requests, and let's choose to pray for each other. I pray that whatever you’re experiencing right now, whether it's a trauma, loss of a family member, financial struggle, job loss, or any other heartache or hardship that you’re experiencing right now, that you’ll choose to seek God first for the answers, draw near to Him, because He is very near to you, take every burden, fear, concern, and more so, and lay it at His feet. Choose right now, to give whatever it is you are going through to Jesus, release your grip off of the worry, anger, fear, sorrow, or whatever emotion you are feeling right now, and let Jesus take it. Remember, as Karen Huang states so very well, “God's presence, help, are ours to enjoy as we seek to follow Him all the days of our life. We can say with confidence: “Rejoice in the Lord always. I will say it again: Rejoice!” (Philippians 4:4) UNTIL TUESDAY: HAVE A MAGNIFICIENTLY BLESSED EVENING IN CHRIST JESUS!!! P.S.
