Post 131A

I've been encouraged lately by asking God to bless me. I had been reading James 1 about asking God for wisdom without doubting, also my art teacher Don West was talking on this. I asked the Lord for 3 different things last Saturday and when I got to the end of the day I realized that He had fulfilled them all! Thank the Lord, He wouldn't do anything less, and is continuing to do so

 

1. I asked God to enlarge my sphere of influence for Him. God answered it by a grandmother and her granddaughter who's house my brothers and I were working at. She really likes us. I gave her a CD and she had me get it playing for her. She was so happy with it and thanked us over and over.

2. I asked God to give me creativity. There are 3 songs I have been working on for quite some time, and He gave me some excellent ideas and techniques to continue them.

3. I asked God to give me stories that explain good truths. And God answered it my reminding me of two stories that I have been through that teach some great things.

 

So I am thanking God that He gives good gifts, and does not hold anything back.

James 1:5 If any of you lack wisdom, let him ask of God, that giveth to all men liberally, and upbraideth not; and it shall be given him.
6 But let him ask in faith, nothing wavering. For he that wavereth is like a wave of the sea driven with the wind and tossed.
7 For let not that man think that he shall receive any thing of the Lord.
8 A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

But you've got to have faith. If you don't have faith, don't think that God will give you anything.

 

 

 

Here are some pictures of sledding with the church. There's a ton of them, so I have split this entry up into posts A, and B. Enjoy Jesus!...
