Tuesday—His Words are Flawless

Happy Tuesday. I hope this finds you doing well. Did you talk with El Roi, the God who sees you this morning? Did you read scripture first thing? 


I went to see the doctor yesterday, explained to him my symptoms. I added that I was speaking this weekend at a women’s retreat and I need to be on top of my game by then. He told me he thought the worst was over and that I just needed a little help to get over the last of what ever it was. He said “it sounds like you have had...but let’s try this to get you back on your feet.” 

While I was getting my medicine, I thought “I hope he’s right, but I’m so glad there are things in life that we can know for certain.” We know for sure that God’s Word is 100% always accurate—always correct.

“And the words of the LORD are flawless, like silver purified in a crucible, like gold refined seven times.” Psalm‬ ‭12:6‬ ‭NIV‬‬

In an uncertain world where it seems we can’t count on much of anything, isn’t it great to have the Word of God as our constant in such a volatile, crazy world? 

Since God is the source of the inspiration of His Word and He is unlimited and perfect in all His ways, His Word is perfect and unlimited. All of His attributes are consistent and woven together in perfect harmony beyond our mental capabilities. God’s perfect character shows us that His inspired Word is credible, reliable, and trustworthy as God Himself. 

“All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness,”

‭‭2 Timothy‬ ‭3:16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

Every bit of it. Every word. Every verse. Every chapter. Every book. In its entirety is God-breathed. And we can pick it up and hold it and read it or listen to it at anytime we choose. 

Today, choose to spend a little extra time with those precious, ancient words that are flawless and perfect. Maybe not just a little extra...maybe some significant extra time. 

Love you dear one,

Pam

Happy Friday. It’s the end of another week and we have had more opportunities to share the love of Christ with those around us and sometimes that takes quite a bit of effort. I don’t know about you, but I’m not always anxious to embrace others and really listen to them or share with them (especially those who I don’t know well). Sometimes, I just look at them and think “Are you for real?” I don’t always agree with people over politics, sports or of course, religion. And let’s face it, we’d rather spend time with people we like and mostly agree.  And then I read my Bible. God hasn’t called us to sit in our little groups with only those we naturally gravitate towards, but to love people—all people, even those who aren’t necessarily loveable. In this passage, Paul writing to the people of Colosse remarks on how wonderful it is that they truly love others. That love must have really been something over and above the normal and he tells them that it is evident that it comes from the Holy Sp

Happy Wednesday to you. I hope your week is going well. Yesterday, I went to Sams. I was out of things like trash bags, toilet paper, and chicken, so off I went. I like going to Sams because there is always lots to look at and the isles are nice and wide. Everytime I’m there, I am amazed at how much stuff and everything from diapers to TVs to mangos to beds. It just seems incredible that so many things in such quantities are all under one roof.  King David never saw a store with as much stuff aa Sams of course, but he did see countless miracles and understand that God has plans. He knew from creation and history that he was serving a God of miracles and he know that God loved him and his people and would take care of them. He was amazed and awe-struck by the fact that a God who had done such great and mighty things not only cared about his people but that He loved them with such a great love.  “Many, Lord my God, are the wonders you have done, the things you planned for us. None can co

It’s Thursday and I woke up to the blowing wind! Lots of it—I’m dreading Boomer waking up and having to go outside with him. That harsh, bitter wind seems cruel and almost evil. But I’ll wrap myself up with a fe layers and boots and brave it all.  Sometimes I think we try to do that with things we know aren’t right—things that are evil. We try to wrap ourselves up and just wade into it, but Paul tells us we should reject it—stay away from it. “Do not treat prophecies with contempt but test them all; hold on to what is good, reject every kind of evil. May God himself, the God of peace, sanctify you through and through. May your whole spirit, soul and body be kept blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. The one who calls you is faithful, and he will do it.” ‭‭1 Thessalonians‬ ‭5:20-24‬ NIV When he wrote this he’d been in Berea and the Christians there diligently searched the scriptures to make sure everything Paul said was in line. Paul here is encouraging the Thessalonians to
