This post is from Kirk’s Journal. I found Kirk’s blog just recently and I want to recommend it to you! In this post, Kirk L. Zehnder talks about a very important topic. MATTHEW 7:21-23: “Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of […]

Monday Morning Prayer — GraceSpeak
“The LORD keeps you from all harm and watches over your life.” Psalm 121:7 NLT God you are way beyond a sugar daddy, but your love is infinitely sweet! As we are found in Christ we are truly KEPT!
I am…Kept — Who I am in Jesus
Pray. Then let it go. Don’t try and manipulate or force the outcome. Just trust God to open the right doors at the right time. Unknown The first thing you need to know about trusting God is that you are not to depend on your own understanding of the situation, nor of God. Proverbs 3:5 […]

Or what can anyone give in exchange for their soul? 27 For the Son of Man is going to come in his Father’s glory with his angels, and then he will reward each person according to what they have done.
28 “Truly I tell you, some who are standing here will not taste death before they see the Son of Man coming in his kingdom.”
