Be careful who you talk to and interact with.
who does not bring this teaching,
do not receive him into your house;
do not even greet him,
for whoever greets him
shares in the evil he does."

"After making the crossing
There is nothing like the healing touch of Jesus.
they reached the shore at Gennesaret;
and when the men of that place recognized him
they spread the word throughout the region.
People brought him all the afflicted,
with the plea that he let them do no more
than touch the tassel of his cloak.
As many as touched it
were fully restored to health."
Matthew 14:34-36
Just to be near him is awesome.
He will heal you.
Your life will be fully restored.

"Once again the high priest interrogated Jesus:
They did not understand.
'Are you the Messiah,
the Son of the Blessed One?'
Then Jesus answered:
'I am; and you will see the Son of Man
seated at the right hand of the Power
and coming with the clouds of heaven.'"
Mark 14:61-62
They did not see.
Jesus was right there before them.
So close and yet so far away.
He is the Promised One.
He is the Son of God.
He is the Messiah.

I woke up this morning thinking:
Jesus said,
Jesus, we pray for peace today in Egypt.
what can I do to bring peace to
Egypt
.
There is more and more violence every day.
Prayer for sure is part of the answer,
but there is probably many other things
to do that would be helpful.
You think of Facebook and Twitter
with over 1 billion people.
Someone knows the answer or
many people working together know the answer.
God knows the answer.
"'Peace' is my farewell to you,
my peace is my gift to you;
I do not give it to you as the world gives peace.
Do not be distressed or fearful."
John 14:27
We turn to you.
We need you.
We need your peace.

"This Son is the reflection
Give praise to the Father, Son and Holy Spirit.
of the Father's glory,
the exact representation
of the Father's being,
and he sustains all things
by his powerful word."
Hebrews 1:3
Three persons in one God.
We don't understand how this can be.
God is beyond our comprehension.
But he loves us.
We are his children.
He sustains us.
Read his powerful words.

"You will show me the path to life,

"While Peter was down in the courtyard,
People will notice you.
one of the servant girls
of the high priest came along.
When she noticed Peter warming himself,
she looked at him more closely and said,
'You too were with Jesus of Nazareth.'
But he denied it:
'I do not know what you are talking about!
What are you getting at?'"
Mark 14:66-68
They will stop and take a close look.
Live for Jesus.
Proclaim your faith in him.
Give glory to God by your life.
Don't deny it.

There is a
Job Fair
in Omaha today
"Many have undertaken to compile a narrative of the events
They tried to write it all down for you.
from 1 PM to 5 PM near 70th and Grover
on the south side of the street.
God bless all the people trying to find a job
or get a better job.
which have been fulfilled in our midst,
precisely as those events were transmitted to us
by the original eyewitnesses and ministers of the word."
Luke 1:1-2
They captured as much as they could.
Read what they said in the gospels:
Matthew, Mark, Luke and John.
Read one chapter a day.
See what they saw and
wanted to tell you about.
Jesus did a lot of things.
He said many things.
(August 5, 2013 Mon 6:56 AM CDT)
Lately I have been playing the game
Jesus taught,
Don't turn back.
Candy Crush
.
It is highly addictive.
You get to a point sometimes
when you run out of lives.
Then you have to stop playing for 30 minutes
or ask friends on Facebook to send you a life
or pay money to continue.
It starts off a free game and
then they trick you to give them money.
Millions of people play the game daily.
"Remember Lot's wife.
Whoever tries to preserve his life will lose it;
whoever loses it will keep it."
Luke 17:32-33
Keep going forward.
The Lord will preserve your life.
Give your life to Christ.

"The weapons of our warfare
God is all-powerful.
are not merely human.
They possess God's power
for the destruction of strongholds."
2 Corinthians 10:4
He is your source of strength.
Go to him often.
Ask for help.
Ask and you shall receive.
Your life will change for the better.

Grow in faith.
rich in the harvest of justice
which Jesus Christ has ripened in you,

That is my wish.
That is my prayer.
