Are we lukewarm or on fire ?



Our time may be running out.... 
If we are lukewarm in our spiritual life or have turned away from God or have back slid, it's time to turn to God, ask forgiveness and move ahead in our spiritual life... 
Someone said.."For we can't see the stop-watch of God's patience and there's no bargaining for additional time"

Bless others....



Hi........
We serve a God who is constantly blessing us.
He says in..
Genesis 22:17 "I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. "
Psalm 29: 11 "The LORD gives strength to his people;
       the LORD blesses his people with peace."
We too need to bless not just the people who love us and do good to us but even those who curse us and those who persecute us.
Luke 6:28, "Bless those who curse you, pray for those who mistreat you."
Romans 12:14 "Bless those who persecute you; bless and do not curse."
Instead of trying to take revenge let's see ways we can help them and pray with them and for them.
We can bless others by our words, deeds, prayers and giving them something they'll like or they need.
We can also bless people with a "smile", a 'hug" etc. 
Above all we need to Bless our God. His Name is above every Name.
Psalm 16:7 I will bless the LORD who has given me counsel;My heart also instructs me in the night seasons.
Psalm 115:18 But we will bless the LORDFrom this time forth and forevermore. Praise the LORD!
God Bless you,
YSIC,
Julia
"BLESSED ARE THOSE"
Blessed are those who take the time
To listen to difficult speech,
For you help me to know that
if I persevere,
I can be understood.

Blessed are you who never bid me to hurry up or take my tasks from me
For my failures will be out weighted
By the times I surprise myself and you.
Blessed are you who asked for my help
For my greatest need is to be needed.
Blessed are you who understand that it is
difficult for me to put thoughts into words.
Blessed are you who with a smile encourage
me to try once more.
Blessed are you who never remind me that today
I asked the same question twice,
Blessed are you who respect me and love me
just as I am...
" Love one another deeply, from the heart."
