~Home~
By wisdom a house is built, and
through understanding it is established;
through knowledge it's rooms are filled
with rare and beautiful treasures
Proverbs 24:3-4

Families are woven together with memories
and bound by a Mother's love and Father's care.

Having a place to go is Home
Having someone to love is Family
Having special people in your life are Friends
Having all three is a Blessing. Psalm121:1 "Unless the LORD builds the house, its builders labor in vain. Unless the LORD watches over the city, the watchmen stand guard in vain." Let JESUS CHRIST our Lord be the Head of our Homes. Let Him be a silent listener to our every conversation. Let's not leave Him out of any discussion. Let HIM have His way in our lives and Home. Be Blessed Julia

Home sweet home...:)

The Lord Blesses the home of the Righteous. (Proverbs 3:33)

Psalm 84:3, Even the sparrow has found a home, and the swallow a nest for herself, where she may have her young— a place near your altar, O LORD Almighty, my King and my God.
Home Is Where The Flowers Bloom

Home is where the flowers bloom
and children love to play,
And mother's whispered lullaby
Is heard at end of day.
Home is where the Bible's read
and children learn to pray
Before they hurry off to school
and put their toys away.
Home is where you live a dream
that others make come true
Because they love you as you are
and want the best for you.
Home is where the years fly by
on wings of solid gold.
And memories are precious gems
To treasure when we're old.
Home is where the flowers bloom
although we are apart,
And we can smell the roses
forever in our heart.
~~Clay Harrison~~

Every house where love abides
And friendship is a guest
Is surely home
And home sweet home
For there the heart can rest
~Henry Van Dyke


Today, I pray  that God's favor and grace will be your portion. May the Lord's presence flood your homes May God Bless You

What makes a house a home...?

Psalm 127:1

 Unless the Lord builds the house, the builders labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the guards stand watch in vain.

It's said: Quote>>It takes hands to build a house, but only hearts can build a home.<<Unquote

True!

A house may be built by the best architect, have many rooms, can have the best furniture, good interiors or it may just be a little hut but if love, understanding, communication, acceptance, forgiveness, faith , hope, trust, inspiration, comfort is not present within it's walls in midst of all the ups and downs, joys and sorrow, abundance and lack.....it cannot really be a home!

The Lord Blesses the home of the Righteous. (Proverbs 3:33) Julia

If we need to blossom like a rose...

Hi Family and friends....

Read this beautiful quote once...

"If you desire to Blossom like a rose in a garden. You have to learn the art of adjusting with the thorns."

How true this is, each of us desire to blossom like the rose but find it difficult to face hard and tough situations in life.

Even Our Lord Jesus refines us like Silver.

PSALM 66:10

"For you, O God, tested us; you refined us like silver."

When God allows us to pass through testing times we should know we'll come out stronger and better.

ISAIAH 48:10,

"See, I have refined you, though not as silver; I have tested you in the furnace of affliction."

Daniel 11: 35,

"Some of the wise will stumble, so that they may be refined, purified and made spotless until the time of the end, for it will still come at the appointed time.

Malachi 3:3,

"He will sit as a refiner and purifier of silver; he will purify the Levites and refine them like gold and silver."

1 Peter 1:7

These have come so that your faith—of greater worth than gold, which perishes even though refined by fire—may be proved genuine and may result in praise, glory and honor when Jesus Christ is revealed.

Let's learn to face the trials of life that seem to be like thorns. Then we too will blossom like a beautiful rose.

We need to learn to cope with pain, rejection, misunderstanding, loss, death etc.

When we faithfully endure, in due season God will help us bloom.

Stay Blessed,

May Grace and Peace of our Lord Jesus be Multiplied on each of you.

Good Night

YSIC,

Julia

Marriage....

God is the beginner of marriage, children, family and home.

Marriage sure is not a life long date, nor bringing up kids all fun. But its a joy to see kids grow, its satisfying to see relationship with kids and spouse be strengthened through years. Looking back we can thank God not just for good times but also for the storms and thorns because it's the tough times that has made us stronger and so it is worth it all. And God makes everything work for our best and binds us with cords of love that cannot be broken!

Praise the Lord!
