•Names of God• El Shaddai, Lord God Almighty, All Sufficient One Genesis 17:1-4 When Abram was ninety-nine years old, the LORD appeared to Abram and said: I am God the Almighty. Walk in my presence and be blameless.a 2 Between you and me I will establish my covenant, and I will multiply you exceedingly.b 3 Abram fell face down and God said to him: 4For my part, here is my covenant with you: you are to become the father of a multitude of nations.c
•The Love of God• Romans 8:37-39 No, in all these things we conquer overwhelmingly through him who loved us.c 38 For I am convinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor present things,* nor future things, nor powers,d 39 nor height, nor depth,* nor any other creature will be able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord.
•Love• 1 John 4:16 We have come to know and to believe in the love God has for us. God is love, and whoever remains in love remains in God and God in him.
WOW! It’s a warm one this morning. I’m liking it. New paper and toner arrived yesterday. I was happy to see it before I needed it. Another copy job and delivery this morning. Looking forward to the day. Woke up with achy knees, lavender Vicks solved the issue. Another fun night with P&T and Scrabble. We will definitely do it again.
How goes it for you? Is the year progressing as you hoped it would? Are you putting enough effort into it? Ya know, I can be lazy at times and just expect everything to be as I want it without putting much effort. Assuming of me isn’t it?
Know you are prayed for.
