God’s Word

God’s Word

~ Psalms 90:12

Teach us to number our days aright, that we may gain a heart of wisdom.

Thoughts on this Verse:

So often we look up and time has passed us by. The things we promised ourselves we'd accomplish and the deeds we told others we'd do get left undone. Before we know it, days have become weeks, and weeks months, and months years. We find ourselves unable to do what we once assumed we could do any time we want. We must ask the Spirit of God to help us see and seize the opportunities the LORD places in our path.

Smile:

~ One day a lady criticized D. L. Moody for his methods of evangelism in attempting to win people to the Lord.  Moody's reply was "I agree with you.  I don't like the way I do it either.  Tell me, how do you do it?"  The lady replied, "I don't do it."  Moody retorted, "Then I like my way of doing it better than your way of not doing it." … D. L. Moody

End of the days

Numbers 24:14  

Now I am going back to my people, but come, let me warn you of what this people will do to your people in days to come.”

Deuteronomy 8:16  

He gave you manna to eat in the desert, something your fathers had never known, to humble and to test you so that in the end it might go well with you.

Thoughts

~ Jesus taught, first, that a man's business is to do the will of God; second, that God takes upon Himself the care of that man; third, therefore, that a man must never be afraid of anything, and so, fourth, be left free to love God with all his heart, and his neighbor as himself. - George MacDonald

~ Marriage, and the process of coming to it, is not heaven!  It is the bonding together of two needy sinners in order to make a partnership which is substantially greater than either of them alone. - Sinclair Ferguson
