Jeremiah 33:3 - Call unto me, and I will answer thee, and shew thee great and mighty things, which thou knowest not.

God wants us to pray and give Him our requests. He wants to prove Himself mighty in our lives. Sometimes, we don't get what we want simply because we don't ask. We need to get in the habit of taking our petitions to Him. Thank you, Lord, for answering my prayers!

Proverbs 21:1 - The king's heart is in the hand of the LORD, as the rivers of water: he turneth it whithersoever he will.

from time to time, we encounter people who seem to be immovable and are blocking us in what we want to do. If it is something God wants us to do, we can be assured that He can change hears if He needs to, in order to enable us to do His Will. I am thankful for an omnipotent, sovereign God.

Proverbs 25:25 - As cold waters to a thirsty soul, so is good news from a far country.

Today, I received phone calls from two different friends who live far away from me. I was feeling down, after having a wreck yesterday, and it lifted my spirits immeasurably. I thank God for the friendships He has brought into my life.

Malachi 3:6 - For I am the LORD, I change not;

God still hates sin as He did thousands of years ago, but that's not all. He also loves me just as much today as He did while He was dying on the cross to redeem me. I have sinned and failed Him so many times, but He keeps loving me, and forgiving me as I repent. What a wondrous thought! I thank God that He is the same yesterday, today and forever!

Hosea 4:6 - My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge: because thou hast rejected knowledge, I will also reject thee, that thou shalt be no priest to me: seeing thou hast forgotten the law of thy God, I will also forget thy children.

Never before in modern history, has the English-speaking world experienced such a lack of knowledge concerning God and the Bible. The worst part is the apathy toward anything religious. My aim is to saturate myself and my son in the Word of God so that we will have the knowledge we need to combat the devil and not be rejected by God. I thank God that we live in a land where we still have the freedom to study His Word.

Proverbs 31:10 - Who can find a virtuous woman? for her price is far above rubies.

Today is my mother's birthday. If she were still living, she would be 70 today. This chapter which describes a virtuous woman has always reminded me of Mom. She lived up to the description better than any other woman I've ever known. She's been gone a little over 8 years, and I still miss her terribly. I thank God so much for the Godly mother he blessed me with.

Proverbs 14:12 - There is a way which seemeth right unto a man, but the end thereof are the ways of death.

We often think we are so smart, when in reality we know nothing. We think we're doing the right thing, but we are really causing havoc for ourselves and others around us. Thank God we can always go to His Word to find the wisdom we need!
