14 And we are confident that he hears us whenever we ask for anything that pleases him. 15 And since we know he hears us when we make our requests, we also know that he will give us what we ask for.
THANK YOU
Thank you, Lord for your wonderful gifts. You bless us with everything we need. Our Father, we are so grateful for your watch-care over us and the way in which you care for us. Thank you for answered prayer. Thank you for joyous fellowship.

4/27 1 Peter 2:23
23 He did not retaliate when he was insulted, nor threaten revenge when he suffered. He left his case in the hands of God, who always judges fairly.
JUDGE
We must learn to let God be the judge. He knows everything and at best we know very little. Put your trust in Jesus and turn your burdens over to Him.
4/26 1 John 2:15-17
15 Do not love this world nor the things it offers you, for when you love the world, you do not have the love of the Father in you. 16 For the world offers only a craving for physical pleasure, a craving for everything we see, and pride in our achievements and possessions. These are not from the Father, but are from this world. 17 And this world is fading away, along with everything that people crave. But anyone who does what pleases God will live forever.
PLEASE
Please God and walk with Him. You will find the cares and worries of this world will fade and dim. Jesus is Lord. Praise Him.
4/25 Psalm 118:6-9
6 The LORD is for me, so I will have no fear. What can mere people do to me? 7 Yes, the LORD is for me; he will help me. I will look in triumph at those who hate me. 8 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in people. 9 It is better to take refuge in the LORD than to trust in princes.
EVERYTHING.
JESUS is God’s everything. He is able to keep us on a Godly course and in the day of our demise Jesus meets us and brings us into the presence of the Father. Yes, He is Lord.
4/24 John 9:1-5
1 As Jesus was walking along, he saw a man who had been blind from birth. 2 “Rabbi,” his disciples asked him, “why was this man born blind? Was it because of his own sins or his parents’ sins?” 3 “It was not because of his sins or his parents’ sins,” Jesus answered. “This happened so the power of God could be seen in him. 4 We must quickly carry out the tasks assigned us by the one who sent us. The night is coming, and then no one can work. 5 But while I am here in the world, I am the light of the world.”
LIGHT
Jesus brings light into our lives. He gives us the hope we need to maintain our faith in the midst of this sinful generation. Jesus is Lord.
