The darkness and coolness of the deep forest called to me today, with streams and a river unending, my spirit went quiet, listening to the bees and one stubborn woodpecker. A tree stump became my chair as I was surrounded by the comfort of leaves…. I was even able to whisper, a simple prayer. […]

One baptist pastor said (during his sermon) that his co-pastors in the church were complaining about increasing numbers of women attendees coming to church with inappropriate dress. (When we say inappropriate, we mean not modest, not decent but seductive.) The baptist senior pastor jokingly told them, “Just look up to heaven and ask God, Lord […]

That ball rolled right under the……refrigerator. I did not want to go there this morning, but it was the baby’s ball. I found a flashlight, got down on all fours, and shined the light into the darkness. There was the ball – sitting right in the middle of a dusty mess! If you ask me […]

FILIPINO EXPAT ENCOURAGEMENT 58 — ChristianBlessings
9 After this I looked, and there before me was a great multitude that no one could count, from every nation, tribe, people and language, standing before the throne and before the Lamb. They were wearing white robes and were holding palm branches in their hands. 10 And they cried out in a loud voice:
“Salvation belongs to our God,
who sits on the throne,
and to the Lamb.”
11 All the angels were standing around the throne and around the elders and the four living creatures. They fell down on their faces before the throne and worshiped God, 12 saying:
“Amen!
Praise and glory
and wisdom and thanks and honor
and power and strength
be to our God for ever and ever.
Amen!”
13 Then one of the elders asked me, “These in white robes—who are they, and where did they come from?”
14 I answered, “Sir, you know.”
And he said, “These are they who have come out of the great tribulation; they have washed their robes and made them white in the blood of the Lamb. 15 Therefore,
“they are before the throne of God
and serve him day and night in his temple;
and he who sits on the throne
will shelter them with his presence.
16 ‘Never again will they hunger;
never again will they thirst.
The sun will not beat down on them,’[a]
nor any scorching heat.
17 For the Lamb at the centre of the throne
will be their shepherd;
‘he will lead them to springs of living water.’[b]
‘And God will wipe away every tear from their eyes.’[c]”
