    For Thought and Meditation - Sunday, March 26

    Good morning all. This message for today literally jumped out at me. Have a safe and blessed day.

    The Thoughts and Prayer on Today's Verse are written by Phil Ware

    ...while we wait for the blessed hope — the glorious appearing of our great God and Savior, Jesus Christ, who gave himself for us to redeem us from all wickedness and to purify for himself a people that are his very own, eager to do what is good.
    —Titus 2:13-14

    Thoughts on Today's Verse...


    Some of the most basic and elevated statements about Jesus are made in 1 & 2 Timothy and Titus. These letters are devoted to helping ministers mature churches in difficult places. They are incredibly practical letters but also are rooted in the work of Jesus, his divinity, and his faithfulness. We are waiting for the Faithful One! We trust that he will come for us because of what he sacrificed to redeem us. While we wait, we honor his mission by being a people eager to do what is good, showing in our lives that Jesus is our Lord.

    My Prayer...

    O God, I find myself waiting for Jesus. Because he is coming for me, I know my life's direction has meaning and purpose, even on those days that are long, hard, discouraging, and seemingly fruitless. Fire my heart to wait longingly for Jesus' glorious appearing, and stir my desires to want what is only good and holy. I want to see you! But, dear Lord, I also long to be like you! In the glorious name of Jesus, I pray. Amen.
    Let every nation know, whether it wishes us well or ill, that we shall pay any price, bear any burden, meet any hardship, support any friend, oppose any foe, in order to assure the survival and the success of liberty.

    Amen and Amen. Remember that by their fruits shall he know them. You don't want to be the dry sticks that are cast into the fire.

    That means while waiting we need to be about his work, feeding his flock.
    I truly believe we need to get back to basics.

    Get right with the Lord.
    Get back to the land.
    Get back to thinking like our forefathers thought.


    May the Lord bless you and keep you. May the Lord make His face to shine upon you and be gracious unto you
    and give you His peace. Let all of the earth – all of His creation – worship and praise His name! Make His
    praise glorious!

    What a wonderful message....I sometimes being in a hurry and want Jesus to speed it up as there is so much wickedness in this world....but then I remember that He will come when it is appropriate and in His own time! Thanks for this post!
    When guns are outlawed only criminals and the government will have them and at that time I will see very little difference in either!
