WG'S THOUGHTS

150  They draw nigh that follow after mischief: they are far from thy law. 151  Thou art near, O  Lord ; and all thy commandments are truth. 152  Concerning thy testimonies, I have known of old that thou hast founded them for ever. 153  Consider mine affliction, and deliver me: for I do not forget thy law. 154  Plead my cause, and deliver me: quicken me according to thy word. 155  Salvation is far from the wicked: for they seek not thy statutes. 156  Great are thy tender mercies, O  Lord : quicken me according to thy judgments. 157  Many are my persecutors and mine enemies; yet do I not decline from thy testimonies. 158  I beheld the transgressors, and was grieved; because they kept not thy word. 159  Consider how I love thy precepts: quicken me, O  Lord , according to thy lovingkindness. 160  Thy word is true from the beginning: and every one of thy righteous judgments endureth for ever.

Hebrews 12:2 King James Version 2  Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.

The Stream There is a crooked stream, running quiet and still, just half a mile, over that hill. One day last fall, there was a big rain, that old stream was raging, a rage no man could tame. It roared and rushed, took houses and land, where ever it went, it obeyed no command. Sometimes our life, is like that stream, all peaceful and calm, then comes trials, that explode like a bomb. We have a place, where we can go, to our Heavenly Father, who by His loving hand, soothes and calms, that raging stream, with one command, it obeys His will, as He speaks, Peace be still. –Winston Staples– Share this: face book, twitter

O, what a beautiful day, beautiful September morn, the sun shines bright, and the dew, still lies heavy on the corn. The robins peep, everywhere, taking care of their young, another day so precious, and still so many blessings, blessings to come. The crows fly high, the eagle soars, the neighbors, saw up winter wood; O, how I love the saw sound, from next door. The hymns I enjoy, on the computer play, they are soothing, and blessing me today. The words I hear, refresh my thinking, and remind me, God is very near, very near, He never departs, His spirit dwells, dwells in my heart! written by Winston Staples

When I was a young lad, I would go fishing in the brook close to home. After I was gone a short while,  it seemed like, my mother would call out loud seeking my health and welfare status and I will never forget her calling me to supper. Like my mother’s call, God also calls us to come to Him; in the next few writings we are going to see what His word tells about His calling nations and people unto Himself. Isaiah 55: 5  Behold, thou shalt call a nation that thou knowest not, and nations that knew not thee shall run unto thee because of theLord thy God, and for the Holy One of Israel; for he hath glorified thee.  Romans 1:Among whom are ye also the called of Jesus Christ:  God sends His call by CHRIST! Revelation 22: 17  And the Spirit and the bride say, Come. And let him that heareth say, Come. And let him that is athirst come. And whosoever will, let him take the water of life freely.   God gives the call to come by His HOLY SPIRIT! Psalms 19: 2 ...

Someone’s Calling   Hi! Today opens the moose season here and there is a lot of hunters looking for a moose, so there is a lot of calling for a moose to answer. The last blog,  we  looked what the Bible said about the call of God, today we will continue. Isaiah 45: 22  Look unto me, and be ye saved, all the ends of the earth: for I am God, and there is none else. God’s call is for all mankind to be saved but sad to say this does not happen because all men do not listen to the  call of God.  Matt.20: 16  So the last shall be first, and the first last: for many be called, but few chosen. Proverbs 1: 24  Because I have called, and ye refused; I have stretched out my hand, and no man regarded; 25  But ye have set at nought all my counsel, and would none of my reproof: God’s call to man is of: GRACE — Galatians 1:15   But when it pleased God, who separated me from my mother’s womb, and called me by his grace,  2 Tim.1: 9  Who h...
