Morning thought from Psalm 46: 1 and 10 :
1-- God is our refuge and strength,
A very present help in trouble
10--Be still, and know that I am God
Verse 1, if we stop to think on it for just a moment this is very powerful, we learn this through faith. A drowning person can not be saved unless that person reaches out and takes hold of the helping hand, So it is with God, a person must reach out to God.
verse 10, With all the noise in the world today, sometime we just have to close our minds to all this noise and rely upon God
GOD BLESS and have a very, very good day
God Comforts Us
~ Distractions offer only temporary relief from pain; in contrast, our heavenly Father promises healing.
Scripture Reading: Isaiah 66:12-13
In times of distress, we can fall into the habit of turning to God as a last resort. Food, relationships, careers, technology, and entertainment — these and other forms of escapism allure us with the false promise of relief. But whether we indulge in sweets, mindless scrolling on social media, or pointless busyness, we’ll always find ourselves empty and drained afterward. Worse still, the problem that sent us running is still there when we get back.
Reaching for God instead of our distractions requires the pain of being present in our distress — fully aware of our deep need, seeking a heavenly solution instead of the pleasures and diversions of this world. In our reading today, God reminds the children of Israel that even in the messy, painful space between promise and fulfillment, He never begins something that He doesn’t complete. In Israel’s struggle to become a nation after years of suffering and exile, God never left them. Instead, Israel experienced His deliverance in abundant and diverse ways.
Since we are children of God, Israel’s promised deliverance is extended to us — it’s an invitation to turn to Him with full confidence that we will be comforted. We are assured that “God, who began the good work within us, will continue His work until it is finally finished on the day when Christ Jesus returns." (Philippians 1:6)

Ranb2khz posted a post over at the ETERNITY board...."Our Weakness Can Be Our Strength"
https://investorshub.advfn.com/boards/read_msg.aspx?message_id=174411076
And i wanted to post my reply to it here just for the simple reason that maybe it and the orignal post "Our Weakness Can Be Our Strength" might encourage someone.....
I cant say this with all certainty but im pretty sure each of you have many people in your lives be it family or friends that you love and folks that love you in return. So when we think about the fact that God is love and love is God...im thinking we can say that the main theme of the Bible is Love? And that word Love....is spoken of in different forms. The thing is...there are many people in the USA that dont really know Love. They have people that they may be close to....acquaintances...even family...but they really dont know love from anyone. Think about not having Love in your life...i mean not having real...from the heart...people love in your life....or...just having 1 or 2 or 3 people to share some sort of Love with. Thats beyond sad! Jesus told us the 2nd greatest commandment is to love others as we love ourselves. Are we doing that? Do we make a difference in the world and in other peoples lives everyday...even the folks we dont know...by sharing the Love of Jesus and ourselves with them? If not why is that...and...if so to just what extent and is it truly from our heart? Ive heard it said that "true love is giving the other person what they need the most when they deserve it the least at great sacrifice to ourselves"!...thats what Jesus did for us. Its not just about saying those 3 little words..."i love you"...its about actually showing others our love and at the same time the love of Jesus! So many hurting people in the world...the USA....our home town...our community...what can we do today to show someone our love for them that might otherwise feel no love today and even more importantly how can we also show them the love of Jesus Christ and from that brighten their day and maybe even change their life? I dont know how it is where you live...but here in east tennessee...people are strugglin to pay rent...pay bills...keep food on the table...try and give their children a decent life...you just see so many sad looking folks and i have no doubt that those things along with maybe not knowing the love of Jesus in their lives and maybe not knowing "true heart felt love" from others....it is a tragic existence. So...im not going to sit here and rattle off a list of ways to show folks love...if you are a born-again believer you already know that list...but i will ask...what are you doing to make a difference in someones life...2...3...5 times a week...and yes...that includes strangers! And remember...the sins of omission are just as sinful as the sins of commission!

Rick j Sane
True love is giving the other person what they need the most when they deserve it the least at great sacrifice to ourselves....
Love is patient...love is kind. It does not envy...it does not boast...it is not proud. It does not dishonor others...It does not insist on its own way...it is not easily angered...it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not rejoice at wrongdoing but rejoices with the truth. Love always protects...always trusts...always hopes...always perseveres. Love never fails.
1 Corinthians 13:4-8a
And now these three remain: faith, hope and love. But the greatest of these is love.
1 Corinthians 13:13
A new commandment I give to you, that you love one another: just as I have loved you, you also are to love one another. By this all people will know that you are my disciples, if you have love for one another.”
John 13:34-35
Beloved, let us love one another, for love is from God, and whoever loves has been born of God and knows God. Anyone who does not love does not know God, because God is love.
1 John 4:7-8
One of the scribes came and heard them arguing, and recognizing that He had answered them well, asked Him, “What commandment is the foremost of all?” Jesus answered, “The foremost is, ‘Hear, O Israel! The Lord our God is one Lord; and you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.”
Mark 12:28-31
Beloved, if God so loved us, we also ought to love one another.
1 John 4:11
WHEN WE DIE: 10 THINGS THAT GOD "WONT" ASK US!
1..... God won't ask what kind of car you drove.
2..... God won't ask the square footage of your house.
3..... God won't ask in what neighborhood you lived.
4..... God won't ask about the clothes you had in your closet.
5..... God won't ask what your highest salary was.
6..... God won't ask what your job title was.
7..... God won't ask about your earthly social status.
8..... God won't ask how educated you were.
9..... God won't ask about how much stuff you accumulated.
10....God won't ask you for excuses.
When we draw our last breath and close our eyes for the last time. Thats it! Our eternal destination is set. What lies ahead is judgment day and that means either heaven...or...hell. There are no do overs. Where are you headed?

A Peaceful Thought-Life
~ Today let us dive a little deeper into biblical concepts, and I hope we each walk away better equipped to face life’s trials with the transcendent peace of God.
Scripture Reading:
“For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.” ~ Romans 8:6
Your thought-life can either be a place of peace and life or a source of immense internal struggle and despair. It’s our thoughts that the enemy tries to affect with half-truths and outright lies. It’s our thoughts that are the gateway to our emotions and actions. And it’s our thoughts our loving heavenly Father longs to influence, redeem, and renew that we might experience everlasting peace.
Isaiah 26:3 says, “You keep him in perfect peace whose mind is stayed on You, because he trusts in You.”
• Do you long for perfect peace today?
• Do you long to keep your mind stayed on the inexpressible excellencies of Jesus?
It all starts with trust. When we allow our minds to stray into worry, doubt, fear, reservation, and lies, it is because we don’t trust that God is who He says He is or that He will do what He says He’ll do. If we truly trusted God with our relationships, we wouldn’t spend so much energy mulling over conversations that could have been better or different.
• If we truly trusted God as the perfect provider of our finances and possessions, we wouldn’t spend so much time overwhelming ourselves with all the different financial opportunities available, or not available, to us.
• If we truly trusted God with our futures, we wouldn’t devote so much of our minds to playing out every scenario that could possibly happen.
• And if we truly trusted God that we are loved, liked, enjoyable, and wholly found, we wouldn’t spend so much time thinking of ways we can impress others, work our way into a clique, make others laugh, or win the affections of another.
Romans 8:6 says, “For to set the mind on the flesh is death, but to set the mind on the Spirit is life and peace.” Where you set your mind today is your decision. The Spirit is fully available, ready and willing to lead you to abounding joy and peace. And "the enemy is prowling like a lion seeking to devour" your thoughts that they might breed emotional and even physical death (1 Peter 5:8).
There is a battle for your thoughts happening every moment. But “greater is He who is in you than he who is in the world” (1 John 4:4). God has a perfect plan to lead you away from thoughts that plague you into life and joy in the Holy Spirit. Trust Him as your good and loving Father. Trust that He is always with you. Place your faith wholeheartedly in Him because He is perfectly faithful and able. He has plans for an incredible hope and future for you if you will simply trust Him and set your mind on Him as often and as passionately as you can. May you find peace today in your thoughts through a powerful revelation of God’s abiding love.
Our thoughts truly are a powerful gauge of our level of trust. Thoughts don’t run themselves. We think the way we do for a reason. When we begin to take captive and evaluate our thoughts, we embark on an important process of renewing our minds. Take notice of the way you think today. Take notice of what troubles you and what brings you peace and joy. Open your heart and ask the Holy Spirit to help you renew your mind and place your trust in Him that you might truly have peace. May your thoughts be marked by the nearness and love of Jesus.

Love having a tune on the ole "P" brain early in the morning to carry around throughout the day-----
To God be the glory, great things He hath done,
So loved He the world that He gave us His Son,
Who yielded His life an atonement for sin,
And opened the life gate that all may go in.
GOD BLESS & have yourself a very good day
Faith to Leave
~ Have you decided to follow Jesus whenever and wherever He leads?
Scripture Reading:
"As He was going along the Sea of Galilee, He saw Simon and Andrew, the brother of Simon, casting a net in the sea; for they were fishermen. And Jesus said to them, “Follow Me, and I will have you become fishers of people.” Immediately they left their nets and followed Him. And going on a little farther, He saw James the son of Zebedee, and his brother John, who were also in the boat mending the nets. Immediately He called them; and they left their father Zebedee in the boat with the hired men, and went away to follow Him." ~ Mark 1:16-20
When Jesus met Simon and Andrew, the brothers weren’t extraordinary saints. The same was true of James and John. They were all just fishermen — men who, along with many others, listened to the Lord’s teaching. What set them apart was their faith to leave behind their old life for a new way of living.
Mark is fond of using the word immediately. In his gospel, he writes that the brothers “immediately” left their nets and followed Jesus. We might miss the enormity of this decision. The men left their businesses — their source of income — but that was only the beginning. More than three years of discipleship took them far from family, home, comfort, and safety. They answered Jesus’ call with faith, not only to believe but also to leave.
We may not receive so radical a call. Yet we aren’t all that different from the disciples. When Jesus invites us to follow Him, we must set aside everything that competes for our trust in Him. In other words, we must be willing to leave our own “nets” — jobs and homes, or perhaps comfort and success — when the Lord calls us to do so.
What would it take for you to have that kind of faith?

Such a beautiful passage to commit to memory------Wish I had a dollar for each time I have used this
Psalm 50:15
Call upon Me in the day of trouble;
I will deliver you, and you shall
glorify Me.
Should you give this a try, the 1st part is what a person wants
BUT---always remember the 2nd part--always remember
to thank God
GOD BLESS & have a really good day
Lord, Teach Us to Pray
~ Keep talking to the Lord — He always welcomes you, just as you are.
Scripture Reading:
"Then Jesus went to all the towns and villages, teaching in their synagogues, preaching the good news of the kingdom, and healing every disease and every sickness. When He saw the crowds, He felt compassion for them, because they were weary and worn out, like sheep without a shepherd. Then He said to His disciples, “The harvest is abundant, but the workers are few. Therefore, pray to the Lord of the harvest to send out workers into His harvest.” ~ Matthew 9:35-38
When it comes to prayer, there are two common pitfalls to be aware of. First, when it’s unclear what to pray, some people choose not to pray at all. And second, many believers settle into a lifeless form of praying that leaves them feeling hollow and disconnected from God. Both situations lead to discontentment and frustration.
As Christians, we know that we should pray, even if doing so seems daunting. But far more than any sense of obligation we may feel, it’s wise to recognize that God intended prayer as a blessing for His children: Communing with Him is a fundamental way of experiencing His fullness. We have much to gain by praying — including peace, comfort, wisdom, and God’s very presence. So, it would be tragic to give up on trying.
And remember, when we communicate with God, there’s no measuring stick or scorecard. A fumbling yet heartfelt attempt pleases Him far more than a well-worded litany that lacks sincerity. And keep in mind that formal prayers — such as the one Jesus taught His disciples (Matthew 6:9-13) — can help us find a path back into the practice when we’re lost.
Start with the Lord’s Prayer today and return to it as often as needed. You may eventually find your own words flowing freely as a result. But if not, don’t give up. Just keep talking to the Lord.

HAPPY MOTHERS DAY!!! :) http://mobilelegacies.com/mothersday/ 💗
As born-again believers there is nothing that can probably get us into trouble in Gods eyes any faster than our mouth which is connected to our heart! And if you are not saved im not talking about our heart that beats and pumps blood...im talking about our biblical spiritual heart...who we are as a person....in our spirit and soul. There is no such thing as idle words or casual conversion when we are talking about other folks be it true or not. Even if we are talking to family...even our spouse...its just not what God wants to hear from us. Gossip...backbiting...slander...bearing false wittiness...no good ever comes from it so why do so many folks do it? The fact of the matter is God has said that it is sin! Plenty of scripture addresses gossip and tells us it is sin and as we know that in Gods eyes...sin is sin...so we cant just try and write it off as no big deal....Theres an old earthly saying...If you cant say something nice about someone...then just dont say nothing at all....and another comes to my mind...if folks would pay more attention to the dirt on their own porch they wouldnt have the time to concern themsleves with the dirt on their neighbors porch. And as my dad use to tell me if a man tells you something...keep it to yourself...if he wants anybody else to know it he will tell him. Why does so many good folks have a problem living by all that? There is NEVER any good that comes from gossip. Ole Apostle James was pretty point blank about the tongue. On the other hand...when folks start to tell us something about someone...why do we stand there and listen? Is that not just as bad when all we have to do is say...i really dont care to hear that! Id sure enough rather make them mad than to participate in their sin of gossip...Think about it!

But I tell you that men will give an account on the day of judgment for every careless word they have spoken.
Matthew 12:36
Let no corrupting talk come out of your mouths, but only such as is good for building up, as fits the occasion, that it may give grace to those who hear.
Ephesians 4:29
A dishonest man spreads strife, and a whisperer separates close friends.
Proverbs 16:28
Likewise, the tongue is a small part of the body, but it makes great boasts. Consider what a great forest is set on fire by a small spark. The tongue also is a fire, a world of evil among the parts of the body. It corrupts the whole body, sets the whole course of one’s life on fire, and is itself set on fire by hell.
James 3:5-6
Whoever goes about slandering reveals secrets; therefore do not associate with a simple babbler.
Proverbs 20:19
Besides that, they learn to be idlers, going about from house to house, and not only idlers, but also gossips and busybodies, saying what they should not.
1 Timothy 5:13
being filled with all unrighteousness, wickedness, greed, evil; full of envy, murder, strife, deceit, malice; they are gossips, slanderers, haters of God, insolent, arrogant, boastful, inventors of evil, disobedient to parents, without understanding, untrustworthy, unloving, unmerciful; and although they know the ordinance of God, that those who practice such things are worthy of death, they not only do the same, but also give hearty approval to those who practice them.
Romans 1:29-32
Remnant
“ In the same way, then, there is also at the present time a remnant chosen by grace.” ~ Romans 11:5
Throughout it’s pages, the Bible speaks about or infers that God retains “a remnant”. The remnant are those who pass through the gauntlet of circumstances with their faith intact. Those who do not lose heart or surrender their courage to continue to walk in truth and grace.
The command Jesus gave us to be the “salt” of the world is a call to live as a remnant. When salt is applied, it only needs to be a small amount in order to have its designed effect. That’s also the job of a remnant. When it retains its character, it preserves all it surrounds.
We tend to think of being salt when we walk through life’s valleys. But the greatest opportunity to serve as a salty remnant is on life’s plains, simply because that is where most of life occurs.
The plains contain a vast array of experiences. A myriad of opportunities. Every single one of them brimming with it opportunity as well as peril. But this is a perspective we must choose. The plains do not impose it upon us. If we aren’t intentional about seeing life on the plains as an opportunity to be salt, they can become a hypnotic routine. Like monotonous white stripes on an endless straight road.
There are no meaningless choices. Each and every day, the decisions we make have an impact on who we are, whom we trust, and where we aim our worship.
Living life on the plains as salt, as a member of the remnant is transformative. But it requires adopting a perspective that what the world considers menial, like taking the trouble to deliver a cup of cool water to a person in need, is actually something that is great in God’s economy.
Today is an opportunity to live a remnant lifestyle.

very good------ as you said "God doesn't cause the problems"..... usually my own fault, if I think on it in honesty, then the devil tosses things in my path, but again it is my fault for showing weakness......basically I am a mess.
"This is the day that the Lord has made; let us rejoice and be glad in it!"
Psalm 118:24
Casting Crowns-"Praise You In This Storm"
Let me tell you this morning that it is 100 percent true that God is good and that God is in total control. However...that does not prevent bad things from happening. And i also want you to know..that although its within Gods power to give everyone a perfect life...a perfect existence...that truly would not be in our best interest. Now you may say...what or why...i dont get that...not in my best interest? You see folks...often times it is trials and suffering that drives people...points people to the Father and they become saved. And for those of us who are already His followers...God often times uses harsh circumstances...burdens and tribulations...to mature our faith...build our trust in Him...our dependence in Him...and conform us to the image of His Son...Jesus. Do you think it might just also be possible that even as believers...if we had a walk thru the rose garden everyday...that we in our state of being human might just forget about God? Yes...God will allow disaster and evil and sickness to touch our lives so we can grow from the experience and growth...whether in compassion...trust or knowledge...thats a good thing! If we could peek behind the scenes of our life...look into our future...we would see God in His perfect wisdom...sovereignly working toward His ultimate purpose for us. But it is so important to remember that although we sometimes see immediate positive results from trials. Other times...we must wait months or years...or maybe until we reach heaven...to fully understand what God was doing in those difficult circumstances. Suffering and evil are just part of living in a fallen world. But we have the blessed assurance that God is in control of the universe...even though it may not look like it...God is in control....including the tiny corner that each of us occupies. So remember...when God permits bad things to happen...we can be sure that He will continue to provide comfort and guidance as He shapes us into the people He wants us to be. Molding us into the likeness of Jesus in preparation for heaven...our forever home! Gods love for us surpasses all understanding...His love is so total and complete...and...He does care about our problems...but....i believe that even more than that...His desire is to mold us into the likeness of His Son Jesus as we walk this earthly path....and....think about this....if life was always problem free...could we really appricate the good not knowing the bad times in our life? The good news is for born-again believers...that we are going to spend forever with Jesus in heaven and there on the new earth / heaven....we will have that perfect life in our new glorified bodies and it will never end as we give God the praise for His grace and mercy and saving us from hell thru the sacrifice Jesus made on that old rugged cross!

Count it all joy, my brothers, when you meet trials of various kinds, for you know that the testing of your faith produces steadfastness. And let steadfastness have its full effect, that you may be perfect and complete, lacking in nothing.
James 1:2-4
Blessed is the man who remains steadfast under trial, for when he has stood the test he will receive the crown of life, which God has promised to those who love him.
James 1:12
Not only that, but we rejoice in our sufferings, knowing that suffering produces endurance, and endurance produces character, and character produces hope, and hope does not put us to shame, because God's love has been poured into our hearts through the Holy Spirit who has been given to us.
Romans 5:3-5
Yet you, LORD, are our Father. We are the clay, you are the potter; we are all the work of your hand.
Isaiah 64:8
Most gladly therefore will I rather glory in my infirmities, that the power of Christ may rest upon me.
2 Corinthians 12:9
“You are from God, little children, and you have conquered them, because the One who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world.”
1 John 4:4
Know that the Lord, he is God! It is he who made us, and we are his; we are his people, and the sheep of his pasture.
Psalm 100:3
The meaning of life does not consist in what we make of it, but in what God makes of it. Success is not about achievement or what we make of ourselves. It's about placement, or what God makes of us. We take the lesson from the Persecuted Church that it is okay to die quite unaware of our life's meaning. We can rest in trust that God, in His mercy, has used us to help build His eternal kingdom.
-Paul Estabrooks-
Thank you for the update on your health stuff. God Bless
The older I get the longer & longer my prayer list gets ----then I learn that the older I get the shorter & shorter my memory gets. I use to feel bad because later in a day I would realize I overlooked someone in need of prayer. Then as I aged a couple more years I learned to consider that memory loss (in this manner) was a great gift, you see often I would get all tied up in my daily activities that God was sort of put on the back burner, so to speak,----but then I came to remember that I overlooked someone in my prayers and I would chat with God about this, see what I thought was a handicap was really a blessing, it made me draw nearer to God, through out my day......All in the attitude my friends. Life is a real challenge and often I found myself just throwing up my hands and saying---"OK God, you put this in front of me, You know how thick I am, so help me to understand what it is that You want me to do with this mess."
Something I learned back a few years ago and that is to learn to depend on the Holy Spirit...."Learning to depend on" is a very difficult thing for me to do, giving up control of what is going on is not the normal.....BUT HEY !! works for me, and I love this peace I have found & come to appreciate
GOD BLESS & weekend liberty has sounded so go and enjoy this another weekend God has given you
When you walk with the Lord in the newness of life-----Just Trust and Obey
Hope for the Stranger
~ God calls us to welcome and include those who are new or unknown in our communities.
Scripture Reading: Ruth 1:6-14
When Naomi returned to Bethlehem after the death of her husband and sons, she brought along her widowed Moabite daughter-in-law. Ruth — the third woman mentioned in Matthew’s genealogy — was a stranger, but she chose to follow the customs of Naomi’s land. Because they were poor, Ruth gleaned barley from the edges of the fields, God’s provision in Israel “for the needy and for the stranger” (Leviticus 19:10; 23:22). Her faithfulness impressed the community and especially Boaz, the owner of the field.
Ruth lived on the margins, literally and figuratively. But settling in Bethlehem eventually led to a home and family of her own. Boaz, by marrying her, helped to restore the inheritance and prospects of a family devastated by loss. Ruth was welcomed and cared for by her adopted community, and she ultimately bore a child whom the neighborhood named Obed (Ruth 4:13-17).
People like Ruth live in our communities today. You can find them in the grocery store and dentist’s office as well as the dog park, senior center, and library. God calls us to welcome and provide for all the “strangers” among us, just as He welcomed us when we were outsiders. He made us members of His household and grafted us into the kingdom (Ephesians 2:19-20).
How can we extend that same love and generosity to those around us?

Yesterday went to my cardiac rehab stuff, met a guy I had not seen before—— listen to this, he had a heart transplant and the day to do it, they got him all opened up for the new heart and found out that the heart replacement was no good, so they wired him back together and the next they had a good heart , so opened him up& installed the replacement, I not finished yet,;the next day they did a kidney transplant—— I was totally at a loss for words, I only came up with —“I bet you had some serious conversations with the good Lord”…..
Makes my issues like a party in comparrison
I have for many years believed that when I have had health issues, like when I broke my wrist and out of work for right at 2 years, I would always tell folks who felt bad for me, --"it is ok, I just look next door and find someone who is way worse off than me."----no matter my state there is always someone close by way worse off than me. My dad taught me that when a person gives in to self pity the battle is almost lost.
Life is full of ups and downs, we just have to learn how to handle both
GOD BLESS
Reckon great minds run on the same rails......The subject of prayer was on my little ole "P" brain this morning. I recently posted a bit bout this, so once again, if I may------even the disciples did not know how to pray or maybe understand prayer.....IDUNNO-----anyway, from Luke 11:
Luke 11: 1-4
11 Now it came to pass, as He was praying in a certain place, when He ceased, that one of His disciples said to Him, “Lord, teach us to pray, as John also taught his disciples.”
2 So He said to them, “When you pray, say:
Our[ Father in heaven,
Hallowed be Your name.
Your kingdom come.
Your will be done
On earth as it is in heaven.
Give us day by day our daily bread.
And forgive us our sins,
For we also forgive everyone who is indebted to us.
And do not lead us into temptation,
But deliver us from the evil one.”
One will also find this in Matthew 6: 8-13
This and Psalm 23 is part of my every morning coffee & chat with God-------When one finds difficulty in one's prayer life, give this a try----draw near to God and He will draw near to you
NOW----Ranb2hz---see you up with the chickens this morning. I know you have a lot on your mind, I have found that in such times I have just had to say " God you put all this here, I don't know what to do with it, but here, I'll let you handle it all".....Then the hard part for me is to just let go, but once I do that, I am at peace.
GOD BLESS
Answered Prayer
'“For My thoughts are not your thoughts, and your ways are not My ways.” This is the Lord’s declaration. “For as heaven is higher than earth, so My ways are higher than your ways, and My thoughts than your thoughts.'” ~ Isaiah 55:8-9
When you pray continually about a concern, don't be surprised at how Christ answers.
Paul prayed to visit Rome so he could teach the Christians there. When he finally arrived in Rome, it was as a prisoner!
Paul prayed for a safe trip, and he did arrive safely – after getting arrested, slapped in the face, shipwrecked, and bitten by a poisonous snake!
God's way of answering our prayers are often far from what we expect. When we sincerely pray, God will answer – although in His timing and sometimes in ways we do not expect.

This IHUB Board (forum) postings and discussions are based upon Biblical principles. We believe that the Bible is the infallible Word of God. The Word was penned by humans of antiquity under the direction of the omniscient Holy Spirit – One of the omnipotent and omnipresent Persons of the triune God and Creator of the Universe.
We welcome thought-provoking discussion of those that are truly seeking to understand the nature of God and His desires for our lives as taught by His Word – the Bible.
This is the BEST explanation I have EVER heard to one of the toughest most asked question of you if you are a Christian you NEED to listen to this dudes TRUTH so when others ask you the explanation you give will make sense to them.
No matter if you are a Christian or not the evil one LOVES to use this question.
