上 行 之 诗 。 ） 我 要 向 山 举 目 ； 我 的 帮 助 从 何 而 来 ？

² 我 的 帮 助 从 造 天 地 的 耶 和 华 而 来 。

³ 他 必 不 叫 你 的 脚 摇 动 ； 保 护 你 的 必 不 打 盹 ！

⁴ 保 护 以 色 列 的 ， 也 不 打 盹 也 不 睡 觉 。

⁵ 保 护 你 的 是 耶 和 华 ； 耶 和 华 在 你 右 边 荫 庇 你 。

⁶ 白 日 ， 太 阳 必 不 伤 你 ； 夜 间 ， 月 亮 必 不 害 你 。

⁷ 耶 和 华 要 保 护 你 ， 免 受 一 切 的 灾 害 ； 他 要 保 护 你 的 性 命 。

⁸ 你 出 你 入 ， 耶 和 华 要 保 护 你 ， 从 今 时 直 到 永 远 。

Psalm 121


I look up to the mountains—
does my help come from there?
² My help comes from the Lord,
who made heaven and earth!

³ He will not let you stumble;
the one who watches over you will not slumber.
⁴ Indeed, he who watches over Israel
never slumbers or sleeps.

⁵ The Lord himself watches over you!
The Lord stands beside you as your protective shade.
⁶ The sun will not harm you by day,
nor the moon at night.

⁷ The Lord keeps you from all harm
and watches over your life.
⁸ The Lord keeps watch over you as you come and go,
both now and forever.

Hey guys

So I was watching something on God TV and Pastor J John was speaking. He was talking about evangelizing. He said its not just about preaching the word but sowing, caring and effective prayer is all part of it too.

He wrapped it up by saying if we all do this think of the amazing change in peoples life's. I know for me that really spoke to me and think of peoples life's we can change.

Below is one of my favorite versus from peter. When I have a challenging week especially with people I look at this verse and it switches things around. I think you showed it to me J cheers bro.

Anyway have a lovely and blessed day

1 Peter 5

Advice for Elders and Young Men

¹ And now, a word to you who are elders in the churches. I, too, am an elder and a witness to the sufferings of Christ. And I, too, will share in his glory when he is revealed to the whole world. As a fellow elder, I appeal to you: ² Care for the flock that God has entrusted to you. Watch over it willingly, not grudgingly—not for what you will get out of it, but because you are eager to serve God. ³ Don’t lord it over the people assigned to your care, but lead them by your own good example. ⁴ And when the Great Shepherd appears, you will receive a crown of never-ending glory and honor.

⁵ In the same way, you younger men must accept the authority of the elders. And all of you, serve each other in humility, for

“God opposes the proud
but favors the humble.”^[a]

⁶ So humble yourselves under the mighty power of God, and at the right time he will lift you up in honor. ⁷ Give all your worries and cares to God, for he cares about you.

⁸ Stay alert! Watch out for your great enemy, the devil. He prowls around like a roaring lion, looking for someone to devour. ⁹ Stand firm against him, and be strong in your faith. Remember that your Christian brothers and sisters^[b] all over the world are going through the same kind of suffering you are.

¹⁰ In his kindness God called you to share in his eternal glory by means of Christ Jesus. So after you have suffered a little while, he will restore, support, and strengthen you, and he will place you on a firm foundation. ¹¹ All power to him forever! Amen.

Peter’s Final Greetings

¹² I have written and sent this short letter to you with the help of Silas,^[c] whom I commend to you as a faithful brother. My purpose in writing is to encourage you and assure you that what you are experiencing is truly part of God’s grace for you. Stand firm in this grace.

¹³ Your sister church here in Babylon^[d] sends you greetings, and so does my son Mark. ¹⁴ Greet each other with Christian love.^[e]

Peace be with all of you who are in Christ.

Isaiah 43

From Brett:

Isaiah 43

6 I will say to the north, 'Give them up!'
and to the south, 'Do not hold them back.'
Bring my sons from afar
and my daughters from the ends of the earth-

7 everyone who is called by my name,
whom I created for my glory,
whom I formed and made."

Breakin it down :-)

everyone who is called by my name,

God has called me by name. When I think about this it brings an amazing feeling of self worth and acceptance that the God who created the universe would call me by name. It makes me feel so secure that he has called me by my own name that he would know my name to start with and then choose me.

whom I created for my glory,

He created me for his glory. He created me to shine the goodness of God in this world. To show people that there is a God in heaven who loves them so much

whom I formed and made

Wow. This changes everything. To know that it wasn't by accident. That I am designed formed and made by God himself. That he has all the resources under heaven to make me with. This gives such an amazing feeling of self worth. To know it was God himself who formed me. That he sees me as nothing short of perfect as he saw his son Jesus. Change me lord to help me see myself how God sees me. Formed and made by the creator of the universe

Have an awesome Saturday and see you in the house tomorrow.
