Good Morning Christian Peeps! Just another example of God's love. He holds us and comforts us, he gives us peace in times of trouble. He carries us when we can't walk. He loves us when it seems no one else does. He opens doors when we need them and closes the doors that may be detrimental. He provides a way of escape when we are tempted. He feeds us when we are hungry and clothes us when we are bear. He is our everything.....
God Bless!
Sgs 2:6
His left hand [is] under my head, and his right hand doth embrace me.

The Eyes Of All Wait Upon Thee!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! The Sun Is Shining. It will get warm again!
For those of us today who are waiting upon the Lord to either, reveal to us our calling, satisfy a need, or just wrap us up with love, whatever prayer that might be, the Bible tells us that he gives us "our meat" in due season. Due means according to Webster: having reached the date at which payment is required. But look at the last part of the verse. In our words...you open your hand and you satisfy the desire of every living thing. Now you can't get more specific than that. So once again it's back to trusting God that he knows our needs and he knows the appointment time when we need an answer. He is faithful to provide what we need but sense he sees the future and we cannot....he knows the "right" time to give them to us. I am just walking through this and I want to encourage all of you to walk in faith and trust that whatever we need is coming at the right time . God gives us these promises.
Be Blessed today!
The eyes of all wait upon thee; and thou givest them their meat in due season. Thou openest thine hand, and satisfiest the desire of every living thing. Psalms 145:15-16

Blessed Is The Man, Who Trusts The Lord!
Good Afternoon Christian Peeps! Blessed is the man who trusts in the Lord, whose confidence is in him. I have been reading actually several books at one time....and the message I keep getting is "to trust in the Lord" Now it is easy to say that you trust but harder to do when you have so many things being thrown at you. The process by which we show faith is by trusting and by trusting we let go of our worries and relinquish them over to God. Yes, it can be hard to truly let them go....but go back to one of my first christian peeps. I talked about seeing yourself with a rope, the rope being your troubles that you are turning over to God. Now imagine him trying to take the rope(problems) from you but you are still hanging onto it (them). Now imagine you letting the rope go and truly giving it all over to him. If you will use this scenario when you are trying to release your problems to him it will help you to mentally let go. It does for me. I pray that we will all have the courage and the faith to truly give our problems, situations over to Him. When we do we are blessed!
Blessings Today!
"Blessed is the man who trusts in the LORD, whose confidence is in him."Jeremiah 17:7

Remember that God Loves You! You are special to him. So if you are feeling down today, I want to encourage you to Look Up! God is right where you left him. Love and Blessings to you all!

God Is There!
Good Afternoon Christian Peeps! It's a windy day. I just recently wrote a song called "God Is There". I just feel like sharing the lyrics with you today because I want us to realize that God Is Always There When We Need Him!
Listen closely to the wind as it blows
and you will know
God is There.
and when the rain touches the ground
you can feel him he's all around
then you know
God Is There.
He's in the darkness, when you can't sleep
he sees the pain that cuts so deep
and he stretching out his hand and saying come!
Here I am!
See the million stars up above
shining down below
then you know
God Is There
When the Sun rises and sets
It's a miracle you can bet
and you know
God Is There
Chorus;
Bridge
When you think your all alone
Breath In and Out and You will know.....
God Is There! Theressa Ruppert copyright 2008
No Matter what you need today, remember God Is There!
May you be blessed!

He Will Hold Our Hand!!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! Another beautiful day that the Lord Hath Made! I Will Rejoice and Be Glad In It!!! When we feel as if we can't go on....Jesus holds our hand. He will walk with us and when we can't even walk, he carries us. He gives us several assurances that he is with us. The Bible is full of scripture where He is encouraging us to Fear Not, and to lean on him...to cry out to him....there are so many. I encourage each of us today to let him be there for us. Release our burdens to him and trust! He will take care of it all. He is our Father after all!!!
Blessings!
For I the LORD thy God will hold thy right hand, saying unto thee, Fear not; I will help thee.
Isaiah 41:13 --

He Bears Our Burdens Daily!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! Just waking up to this wonderful warm weather sets my world right! We are so blessed today to have a Father who according to Psalms 68:19 bears our burdens daily. Just another reminder to let our burdens go, we don't have to carry them ourselves. Jesus is already carrying them for us. So today be blessed and Praise the Lord for He is our salvation. There are several meanings for salvation...but the one I like simply says: deliverance from danger or difficulty. Believe on the Lord today and have a wonderful, wonderful day!
Psa 68:19
Praise be to the Lord, to God our Savior,
who daily bears our burdens. (NIV)

"Look Both Ways"
Good Afternoon Christian Peeps! I try to get these out in the mornings but sometimes it's hard to do. Okay the message I wanted to send to you today is titled "Look Both Ways". I really felt like God was sending me a message today because when I stopped at the stop sign on my way to school....I was mentally prompted to "Look Both Ways". Now I always out of habit look both ways, but today it was sent to me Loud and Clear! So I began to meditate on it. My take on this is that the message is: when you come to a crossroad and you need to make a decision about which way to go....it is always a good idea to look both ways. In essence, take a moment to think it through. Now when you take the time to think it through, you give God a chance to prompt you in the way you need to go. This may be just for me today, because I tend to think something through for about 2 seconds and then jump in my haste to get things going. But I wanted to share it in case it's also for someone out there today. Be encouraged that when you "look both ways" you give God the opportunity to direct your path.
Blessings in Jesus Name!
Pro 3:6
In all thy ways acknowledge him, and he shall direct thy paths.

REMEMBER WHO YOU ARE!!!
Remember Who You Are
A lot of days don't you feel like Simba in The Lion King? Simba's evil uncle (the enemy) has led him to believe that he's alone in the world, he has failed in such a way that he can never be forgiven, and he no longer has a purpose or identity. Simba believes that he has to live out his days in the jungle as a failure. One night as he sits next to a lake, he hears his father's voice say, "Remember who you are." Suddenly Simba sees a reflection in the water of who he truly is, a strong, courageous lion who is the rightful heir to the kingdom. He receives his true identity and takes off to fulfill his destiny of restoring life to the kingdom.
Our loving Father gave us hundreds of Scriptures of who we are in Christ. Over and over he is saying through the Word, "Remember who you are. You are a reflection of me." Take some time to gaze into the Living Water and see the reflection of who you are.
I like this today!!......

The Meek Shall Inherit The Earth!!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! Did you know that if we go through our day enduring injury with patience and without resentment that we can inherit the earth and have an abundance of peace? That's what the Bible tells us in Psalms 37:11. Webster's describes meek as: enduring injury with patience and without resentment. We all know basically what inherit means but I like this definition: to come into possession of or receive especially as a right or divine portion. What we do each day affects the most important things around us. How we handle situations affect our outcome. Those of us who are seeking peace, this tells us exactly how to get it. And Jesus promises us an abundance in peace. So be kind to those who dispitefully use you.... smile at those who go out of their way to make your day miserable....love those who for some reason seem to hate you......because you know something they don't...... by being meek you are going to inherit the earth and enjoy abundant peace. It's all worth it in the end. May God help you remain meek for his glory today and bless you with peace!
But the meek shall inherit the earth; and shall delight themselves in the abundance of peace. --

He Can Restore Your Soul!
Good Afternoon Peeps! What a gorgeous day! Another of Webster's definitions of "Soul" is a person's total self. I love that God can restore our soul. He can renew it for us. So when you feel that your total self is not quite right, just turn to Jesus and ask him to restore you soul. My Soul Loves Jesus! Happy Day to you all!
Blessings!
Psa 23:3
He restoreth my soul: he leadeth me in the paths of righteousness for his name's sake.

We Are Free!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! We are all free today! The Bible says that whoever the son(Jesus) makes free, is free indeed. To be free means: choosing or capable of choosing for itself, enjoying personal freedom. We are blessed to be able to choose for ourselves whether to be free. We can choose whether we want someone or something to control us. Because Jesus has made us free....we can lay aside anything that has control over us today. Choose today to let Jesus make you free. Free from addictions, free from worry, free from sorrow, free from sin.
God Bless!
Jhn 8:36
Therefore if the Son makes you free, you shall be free indeed.

He Makes Everything Glorious!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! I have been away this last week and couldn't do emails or anything which was actually a good thing. I have missed you guys and I am glad to be back.
Today, I would like to share with you that Jesus makes everything glorious! Webster's defines glorious as : marked by great beauty or splendor. If we will let him he can make all things glorious.....Our day can start glorious, our water can taste glorious, our job can be glorious, our spirit will be glorious. I guess what I am trying to say is that what we experience each day is a mind set....no matter what we are experiencing in the physical world, we can adapt our mind set to a spiritual experience and everything will look and feel glorious. Do you know that if you practice this even an hour a day you can give the Devil a black eye......
I pray for all of us today to change our mind sets to a new and improved state! Lord help us to see and feel things in the glorious sense. Knowing that you are there, just a whisper of a prayer away!
I have to share this with you....so much has happened to me in the first of this year that I am still reeling from it all. However, the other day I was praying and saying "Lord how come we don't see miracles like we used too. It seems when I pray I don't get an answer....are you out there Lord". Mind you we all have our doubts.....but what is so wonderful is that It was almost like a sweet gentle voice that said...."I am everywhere....you see miracles everyday.....flowers grow, the sun shines bright, the rivers and waters flow, your children are safe, you have all you need, you are not hungry, you have people who love you, accidents are prevented... I was there! So the next time you have doubts....just look around you, he is definately there!
Psa 72:19
And blessed [be] his glorious name for ever: and let the whole earth be filled [with] his glory; Amen, and Amen.

He Has Created A Good Work In Us.
Good Morning Christian Peeps! I was surfing the Bible ( how awesome is that) and found this wonderful scripture. We can be confident that He who began a Good Work in us, gives us the guarantee that he will carry it through to completion until the day of Christ Jesus! How wonderful is that. I don't know about you but it lifts me today. He has my back, he created me for a purpose and will not leave me until that purpose is fulfilled. We can walk with ease knowing that he will never leave us nor forsake us. We have a great assurance today.
Phl 1:6
being confident of this, that he who began a good work in you will carry it on to completion until the day of Christ Jesus. Blessings!

He Will Direct Our Path!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! I love Proverbs! It is a great book for learning to live God's ways. Our scripture today talks about how we may devise (to form in the mind by new combinations or applications of ideas or principles) our ways but the Lord directs them. I'm glad today that God directs our path. I have tried to direct my own path in the past and nothing ever worked out the way I wanted. Now God is directing my path and everything is working out great! God is so good! Let him direct your path today. We were all designed for a purpose....yield to his will.
Bless All Of You!
Pro 16:9
A man's heart deviseth his way: but the LORD directeth his steps.

I Lift Up My Soul!!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! The Sun is shining and all is well with my soul. Speaking of soul, Webster defines soul as: the spiritual principle embodied in human beings, all rational and spiritual beings. My spiritual self is flying high this morning. I looked up soul in the Bible and found this scripture. It captures how I feel..... Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul. I lift up my soul to Jesus this morning, how about you? May you be lifted up this wonderful morning. God Bless!
Psa 143:8
Let the morning bring me word of your unfailing love, for I have put my trust in you. Show me the way I should go, for to you I lift up my soul.

The Lord Is Our Keeper!
Good Morning Christian Peeps! Today the Lord is our keeper, he protects us day and night. He will keep us from evil and preserve our soul. He is here for us today. No matter what we may be going through, no matter the pain or the debt. Our God is here for us all we need do is call upon him. I am glad today that I know Jesus! He is what makes me get out of bed each day.
Blessings!
The LORD [is] thy keeper: the LORD [is] thy shade upon thy right hand. The sun shall not smite thee by day, nor the moon by night. The LORD shall preserve thee from all evil: he shall preserve thy soul. The LORD shall preserve thy going out and thy coming in from this time forth, and even for evermore. Psalms 121 :5-8
