Encouragement for Christian Sisters

 Greetings sisters in Christ, I pray you are strong in the Lord and not allowing circumstances or people get in the way of your devotion and obedience to God. Yes, in everyone's life, even godly homes, there can be much strife and flesh, but we as sisters in the Lord, must strive diligently to not get swept away in it.  The ones closest to us can hurt the most, but that doesn't mean we should hurt them the most, does it? The word of God says we are to love our enemies and we can say it all day long, but do we really? Ye have heard that it hath been said, Thou shalt love thy neighbour, and hate thine enemy.

(I like a strong cheese.)   He did, and walked back in the buy the rest.  A couple nights later I found this discounted cheese for $1.25 lb, another awesome deal.  (Brother Jim really likes that kind.) What goes better with discount cheese than discount bread!  It's turned into a daily meal for us...we rip off a hunk of bread, a

Good evening sisters in Christ, Brother Jim brought up this subject of 'blessings or curses'. Behold, I set before you this day a blessing and a curse; A blessing, if ye obey the commandments of the  Lord  your God, which I command you this day: And a curse, if ye will not obey the commandments of the  Lord  your God, but turn aside out of the way which I command you this day, to go after other gods, which ye have not known. (Dueteronomy 11:26-28) As we take our morning walk we often see nails and pieces of metal laying in parking lots so we pick them up and dispose of them, calling it ' loving our neighbor '.  We were in an area for a few days and walked quite a bit in one particular area and saw several nails in the parking lot... After picking up another nail brother Jim stopped me and said ' Stand here and look around.  Do you see something fishy going on ?' I stood by him, looked for a couple seconds when I saw this sign...
