Today.

My last post here was 3 years ago, 2009. Unbelievable. Its been long over due. I've had so much going on that I've kinda lost touch with putting my thoughts on paper. I dont know quite how that happened. Thoughts on paper was and is my fav. thing. Just lost touch. But, here I am once again. I can honestly say i'm really glad to be back! So, today is Dec. 21, 2012. Supposedly the "last day" according to the Mayan calendar. To be honest, I dont know anything about them so this is in no way a "bashing" session. All I know is that I'm glad we are all here. Alive and well. (So far.) hehe What I do know is that the Bible, God breathed, says that we should live daily as if it were our last. Only He knows if tomorrow you will awake. We should live for Him and honor Him daily. Searching through verses, I stumbled uppon this. Deut.4 : 32-39 The Lord Is God "32 Ask now about the former days, long before your time, from the day God created human beings on the earth; ask from one end of the heavens to the other. Has anything so great as this ever happened, or has anything like it ever been heard of? 33 Has any other people heard the voice of God[a] speaking out of fire, as you have, and lived? 34 Has any god ever tried to take for himself one nation out of another nation, by testings, by signs and wonders, by war, by a mighty hand and an outstretched arm, or by great and awesome deeds, like all the things the Lord your God did for you in Egypt before your very eyes? 35 You were shown these things so that you might know that the Lord is God; besides him there is no other. 36 From heaven he made you hear his voice to discipline you. On earth he showed you his great fire, and you heard his words from out of the fire. 37 Because he loved your ancestors and chose their descendants after them, he brought you out of Egypt by his Presence and his great strength, 38 to drive out before you nations greater and stronger than you and to bring you into their land to give it to you for your inheritance, as it is today. 39 Acknowledge and take to heart this day that the Lord is God in heaven above and on the earth below. There is no other. 40 Keep his decrees and commands, which I am giving you today, so that it may go well with you and your children after you and that you may live long in the land the Lord your God gives you for all time." Lord, I pray that I may always remember your Word; Your wonderful promises. And may I keep them and honor Your Name with my life with Your help. In Jesus name, Amen.
