“For where two or three are gathered in my name, there am I among them.”
Matthew 18:20, ESV
We hold each other accountable to God’s Word and all godliness, and Christ empowers us to remain faithful.
“One who is faithful in a very little is also faithful in much, and one who is dishonest in a very little is also dishonest in much.”
Luke 16:10, ESV
The Faithful One can empower us to be faithful stewards and servants. On our own, we are more likely to be dishonest and unfaithful.
Wow. 10 years saying hello to this world for Jesus.
Here is a brief update about how things have gone lately, from New Year’s Eve 2020.
Basically, God deserves all the glory.
But for all of you who regularly read my blog, especially some of you who have become friends – whether we have met in person or not – thank you for your faithfulness and encouragement.
May we continue to be blessed by our Lord, no matter how long He tarries, as we share in His Word together.
The Lord bless you and keep you in His love and grace.
Daniel
“She will bear a son, and you shall call his name Jesus, for he will save his people from their sins.”
Matthew 1:21, ESV
A faithful servant of God carried The Faithful One because of the hope of His saving blood, and her faithful betrothed helped.
What a picture of what the Church can be with Christ.
But to all who did receive him, who believed in his name, he gave the right to become children of God
John 1:12, ESV
We are adopted children of God by faith in Christ. We are siblings by Blood.
But the Lord is faithful. He will establish you and guard you against the evil one.
2 Thessalonians 3:3, ESV
Our Lord will deal with those who persecute the Church and the one who attacks the faithful, especially when He returns. He will hold His faithful in His faithfulness until then.
As I type this, I am lying next to the lovely woman in this picture.
If you see her, be forewarned: she is dangerous.
She is tenacious and hard working. She is passionate about her goals and defending those she loves.
And she loves God with all her heart.
That is the dangerous part.
She will help you get to know God or grow deeper in your relationship with Him. She will not let unjustice go by without saying something, and that includes any injustice you may have against God.
And trust me, as a fallen person who needed my Savior to rescue me from the pit and still struggles from time to time with following Jesus completely, I know her ability to do all the things I have described here.
Thankfully, 11 years ago today (at the minute this is scheduled to post online), she agreed to help me personally everyday, no matter how hard it got, how stubborn I can be, or how much I make her laugh. (It seems that last one is a lot, even if I do not mean to …)
So, if you see her …
Remind her she is loved by her Lord and Savior. And her husband of 11 years, as of today.
Oh, and we finally got to meet our nephew, yesterday. He is great!
for God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.
2 Timothy 1:7, ESV
Our world is hostile toward God and His people, so let the Holy Spirit guide us in all wisdom, power, and love to share the Gospel with this world.
Be angry and do not sin; do not let the sun go down on your anger
Ephesians 4:26, ESV
There is enough in this world to make us angry, and that we are right to be angry about. Our anger should not control us or lead us to break God’s Law or forget the image of God in others.
And of we only get angrier and bitter, give it to God and find good ways to help the situation.
