Psalm 1:6 “For the Lord watches over the way of the righteous, but the way of the wicked leads to destruction.” To be an adopted and loved child of God or as this passage says–righteous–is beyond a wonderful blessing. Why wouldn’t everyone in the world want to be blessed like this? That is the question of the century. Have a great weekend.

Psalm 1:1p&2 “Blessed is the one who does not walk in step with the wicked…but whose delight is in the law of the Lord, and who meditates on his law day and night.” There comes a time in all of our lives when we leave home and determine our own course in life. We determine then the kind of life we are going to live. Is God’s instruction going to dominate our life, is our own desire going to dominate our life or should we include God at times and our own desires at times? Probably, for most of us, we fall into category 3. Probably, for most of us, we need to change and be blessed in category 1.

II Timothy 4:7-8 “I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Now there is in store for me the crown of righteousness, which the Lord, the righteous Judge will award to me on that day—and not only to me, but also to all who have longed for his appearing.” Life and all the blessings we receive during our lives are wonderful. When life comes to an end—and it will for all of us—what will our final thoughts be? Let’s all learn from Paul in his conversation with Timothy. He served his Savior and is about to receive the ultimate reward–his eternal crown to be enjoyed with his Savior. Let’s rejoice in earthly life and in eternal life.

II Timothy 4:2 “Preach the word; be prepared in season and out of season; correct, rebuke and encourage—with great patience and careful instruction.” Paul gave careful instructions to Timothy that you and I should take to heart also. Always be prepared–which you can only be by studying His Word diligently; when instructing or teaching be accurate, respectful and always helpful; and do all of this with a caring heart.

II Timothy 3:16-17 “All Scripture is God-breathed and is useful for teaching, rebuking, correcting and training in righteousness, so that the servant of God may be thoroughly equipped for every good work.” You and I are created for a purpose. We are given individual and unique talents. How could either of us discover our talents and purpose if we ignore studying the Scriptures? Or is it possible God wrote the Bible because He had nothing else to do? That is far from the truth. The Bible is written so you and I can really live life and live it to the fullest. How can anyone accomplish that without knowing God and His thoughts? We want to learn all we can. Have a great weekend.
