Great post by Susie Larson this morning. There are few things more powerful than being grateful for what Jesus has done and will continue to do in your life. Have a blessed day today of gratefulness today.

Wishing you all a truly blessed 2024 and beyond.

With all the things going on around us, it can be easy to focus on all the evil in the world. This year, let us use our eyes to see and our ears to hear all the amazing things God is doing all around us. From the Book of Isaiah:

”This is what God says, the God who builds a road right through the ocean, who carves a path through pounding waves, The God who summons horses and chariots and armies— they lie down and then can’t get up; they’re snuffed out like so many candles: “Forget about what’s happened; don’t keep going over old history. Be alert, be present. I’m about to do something brand-new. It’s bursting out! Don’t you see it? There it is! I’m making a road through the desert, rivers in the badlands. Wild animals will say ‘Thank you!’ —the coyotes and the buzzards— Because I provided water in the desert, rivers through the sunbaked earth, Drinking water for the people I chose, the people I made especially for myself, a people custom-made to praise me.“
‭‭Isaiah‬ ‭43‬:‭16‬-‭21‬ ‭MSG‬‬

In the Book of Genesis, Jacob was certainly going through a hard time. He had tricked his brother and his father. His brother wanted to kill him and he had to flee for his life. He found himself sleeping in the dirt with a rock under his head to use for a pillow when he was given a great gift. He was given the gift to see and hear what was truly going around all around him. He saw the presence of the Lord and angels ascending to and from the earth. He heard the voice of God reassuring him that he would be blessed and protected, “I am with you and will watch over you wherever you go…I will not leave you until I have done what I have promised you.” Jacob’s response: “Surely the Lord is in this place and I did not know it.”

This year, may we all realize how much God is at work all around us. Let us find great comfort in God’s precious promises in scripture as we go through the many trials that we face in our lives. Let us focus on God and our victory we have through him. Amen!

For unto us a child is born, to us a son is given, and the government will be on his shoulders. And he will be called Wonderful Counselor, Mighty God, Everlasting Father, Prince of Peace. Of the increase of his government and peace there will be no end. Isaiah 9:6-7

Wishing everyone a holy and joyful Christmas. If you are going through a hard time and need some advice, God is our Wonderful Counselor. If you feel you are in an impossible situation, God is our Mighty God. If someone you depended on has left you, God is our Everlasting God, he will never leave or forsake you. If you are in emotional stress, anxiety or depression, God is our Prince of Peace. Lean into God this season. Blessings to you all.

Happy Independence Day! It may seem like an unusual song for the Fourth of July; it is called “I witnessed it”; but through it all I believe we have seen that the miracles of God have been seen all around the creation of our great country; as Americans we are witness to this. When George Washington was a 23 year old soldier in the French Indian war fighting with the English against the French, An Indian allied with the French recounted that he and his men could not shoot young Washington even at close range. He said, "The Great Spirit protects that man and guides his destinies - he will become the chief of nations, and a people yet unborn will hail him as founder of a mighty empire. I am come to pay homage to the man who is a particular favorite of Heaven, and who can never be killed.” The young Washington got home and there were four musket holes in his jacket, two horses had been shot underneath him, but he was completely unharmed. Years later as the general of the continental army, George Washington was surrounded by 32,000 English trips and pinned against a river. A dense fog rolled in to allow the army to escape across the river without being captured.

A word about the 56 signers of the Declaration of Independence I found on the internet:

The American Heritage Dictionary of the English Language defines treason as “the betrayal of allegiance toward one’s own country, especially by committing hostile acts against it or aiding its enemies in committing such acts.” When the 56 men signed the Declaration of Independence, they knew full well that they were committing treason against England and they knew the penalty—death.
What kind of men were the signers? Twenty-five were lawyers or jurists. Eleven were merchants. Nine were farmers or large plantation owners. One was a teacher, one a musician and one a printer. They were men of means and education, yet they signed the Declaration of Independence, knowing full well that the penalty could be death if they were captured.
In fact, it was Benjamin Franklin who, after putting his quill pen down quipped, “We must indeed, all hang together, or most assuredly we shall hang separately.”
Despite such dire consequences, the reality was that our Founding Fathers valued freedom and its promise for themselves and their posterity so much so that they would risk and pledge their “lives, fortunes and sacred honor.”
Signing the Declaration proved to be very costly. Five signers were captured by the British and brutally tortured as traitors. Nine fought in the Revolutionary War and died from wounds or hardships. Two lost their sons in the war, and two others had sons captured. At least a dozen of the 56 had their homes pillaged and burned.

Let us never forget the great sacrifices that were paid to form this great country. 🇺🇸

We each face battles and hardships throughout our lives; some of which can seem as real and seemingly insurmountable as when David faced Goliath. But though the nature and severity of the attacks we encounter varies, God remains the same. He is still the God of miracles. He who is in Christ is stronger than he who is in this world. God has defeated the enemy at the cross; do not be discouraged, do not be afraid. This is a note of encouragement not only for ourselves, but also a reminder of how we should treat others. A paraphrase of a quote originally attributed to Plato says, ‘Be kind to others, because everyone you meet is going through a battle or battles that you might not know anything about.’ As scripture says, God comforts us in our troubles that we may be a comfort to those going through similar troubles. Lean on God today, he is more than capable.
