GIVING MY BEST, MOMENT BY MOMENT - BIBLEBUFFJOURNAL99 - THANSGIVING

GIVING MY BEST, MOMENT BY MOMENT



          MOMENT BY MOMENT


         I am able to take one moment, and cherish it.
         I am blessed to have that one moment.
         "Jesus Christ, the same Yesterday, Today, and Forever" is what Hebrews 13.8 declares.   In Christ I have the resource of continued strength, and the ability to do what I can, for as long as I can, and however I can, for whoever God sends my way, and for whatever my circumstances or situation may be.

        At Thanksgiving Time it is especially fitting that I think of that verse which says 
                    "GIVE THANKS IN EVERYTHING
                   FOR THIS IS THE WILL OF GOD IN 
                    CHRIST JESUS CONCERNING YOU."
                           I THESSALONIANS 5.18   

               May your Thanksgiving Day be filled with the 
           Presence of the Lord, for His Promise was that He 
            Would be with us.   I bless the Lord for you, my 
           friend, that He has given me the privilege of sharing
             my heart, and my Lord with you.   God give you
           the courage to accept the things you cannot change,
           the courage to change the things you can, and the 
          wisdom to know the difference.   

            HAPPY  THANKSGIVING DAY and God bless you.

This post was written three years ago just about this time.   Today is the 13 of November, 2017;  
Since I wrote this, I had my Hip operation revision and I am happy to say I am dowing well, am at home in my apartment, and doing my own chores, and tasks.   I was in the Nursing Home for five weeks when they said it might be 12.   Praise to God I am home.

GIVING MY BEST, MOMENT BY MOMENT

GIVING MY BEST,
MOMENT BY MOMENT

       
My aim is to glorify God
in my life

by
abiding in Christ

by
walking in the Spirit

by 
knowing my Father in Heaven
is watching over me

while I go about 
living,
loving others.

John 15.16,17

You have not chosen me,
but I have chosen you,
and ordained you,
that you should go and bring forth fruit,
and that your fruit
should remain,
that whatsoever you shall ask
of the Father in my Name
He may give it you.

Giving my best moment by moment,
I am given the strength by God
to do what He asks of me,

Giving my best moment by moment,
I know that the Results of what I do
are up to Him.

Being Available to God
is all He asks.




MOMENT BY MOMENTmm


MOMENT BY MOMENT
I'VE LIFE FROM ABOVE

Moment by Moment, 
I'm kept in His love,
Moment by Moment,
I've life from above,
Looking to Jesus 
Till glory doth shine,
Moment by Moment,
O Lord, I am thine.
          (Daniel Whittle 1840 - 1901)

JESUS CHRIST CAME TO SAVE SINNER, 
TO HEAL THE WOUNDED,
SIN SICK TO BE MADE WHOLE
I CAN TRUST HIM
Moment by Moment.

Jesus said in Luke 9.23 If anyone would follow me,
let him deny himself, take up his cross daily,
and come
follow me.

Along life's road there is much to distract a person
from following Christ.    
The first thing we must do
is 
LET GO OF OUR "SELF" 
and
give to God all that I am or hope to be.

The next thing is 
to 
DAILY 
take up my cross

IN DOING THIS
We follow on,
Moment by moment,
Day by Day.

There is no short cut to following God along
life's road.
