Exodus 14: 13 But Moses said to the people, "Do not be afraid, stand firm, and see the deliverance that the Lord will accomplish for you today; for the Egyptians whom you see today you shall never see again."

In our lives, we must do as Moses did when he and God's people stood at the "Red Sea" and the Egyptian chariots were stirring up dust coming to them, and they were coming hard and fast.  Moses obediently stood up to the grumbling people and said, "Stand firm, and watch what the Lord will accomplish for you today."  Our God truly supplies our needs.  

As God continues to be faithful to the descendants of Abraham, so too will He be faithful to us.

Thanks to Dee Minter Kaiser for reminding us of this:




Jeremiah 17:7-8


Are you like a tree on a river bank or as one on a hill.


"Blessed are those who trust in the Lord and have made the Lord their hope and confidence. They are like trees planted along a riverbank, with roots that reach deep into the water. Such trees are not bothered by the heat or worried by long months if drought. Their leaves stay green and they never stop producing fruit."


Growing up, in our secular society, we teach our children to have Self-Confidence. In the beginning this is not a bad thing.  The problem, and the children mature, they also need to be taught that it is Confidence in the Lord that is most important.   When we fail, we often lose our self-confidence.  When we have confidence in the Lord to meet our needs, we know our needs will be met.  So, in failure, we get up, use the failure as a stepping stone to future success.... because we know the the Lord will supply our needs.   Thanks be to God.

==================

John I 1:5-7 This is the message we have heard from him and declare to you: God is light; in him there is no darkness at all. If we claim to have fellowship with him yet walk in the darkness, we lie and do not live by the truth. But if we walk in the light, as he is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, his Son, purifies us from all sin.

Light is a major theme in the Bible.

Out of Darkness the first element of our nature was Light, Genesis 1:3.

There is an interesting fact of nature about this.  In the early part of the 20th Century physicist Richard Feynman was asking hard questions about small things in nature, more specifically what makes up a proton the very center of our atoms.  Dr. Feynman was a thinker and mathematician.  Through his math models he determined that our protons were made up bits of matter that just seemed to stay together.  So the next question was what holds them together.  What he and two others in the same year determined, was that it was Light that held the bits of matter together in the protons.  In 1937, all three were awarded the Nobel prize.  So, before anything else that was made there had to be light to hold everything together in our protons at the very center of every atom of the universe.  It took mankind 3500 years to discover what had already been written down in the Torah (first five books of the OT).  "Papaw, God is a Genius" - my grandson Rainer.    Now, read the story behind my grandson's discovery.  Click here

I would rather be at the feet of Jesus drowning than
trying to live without Him.
