SATURDAY STROLL

Welcome to "SATURDAY STROLL!"

In these posts I will be interacting with Scripture – making it a conversational walk of faith.

Sometimes we'll be talking with Jesus, sometimes God will be talking with us.

There might even be *guest appearances* by some of our beloved characters from the Bible!

So put on your walking shoes – you know we can all use the exercise!



A *WORD* STUDY


Now…

Today, this minute, right now…

All…

Not some for God and some for me. No, ALL…

Glory…

Magnificence, splendor, majesty, grandeur, beauty, wonder…

To God…

Almighty God, The LORD, the One and Only…

Who is able…

Omnipotent, powerful, strong – who alone has the ability to do anything and everything…

To do…

To work out, to make happen, to change, to renew, to turn around, to restore…

Through His mighty power…

His power, His might, His strength – not mine…

At work…

Not idle, not uninvolved, not uncaring, not passive…

Within us…

Not just around us, but IN us – through the awesome transforming work of the Holy Spirit…

To accomplish…

Achieve, complete, finish, get done, bring about, carry out, undertake…

Infinitely…

Forever and ever, without ceasing or ending…

More…

Extra, better, above and beyond, to a greater extent…

Than we might ask…

Dare we request?

Or think…

Dare we dream?


OH YES!

He invites us!


May we have the power to understand how wide, how long, how high, and how deep His love is.

May we experience the love of Christ, though it is too great to understand fully!

Glory to Him through all generations, forever and ever!

Can I get a great big AMEN?!


(Selections from Ephesians 3:18-21, NLT)

  1. I always know when I come here that it will be loaded! FULL of thoughts and scriptures that always make sense to me and challenge me. God has given you a gift of teaching, and your blog is reflecting it. Thanks for seeing Him in your day to day circumstances and always getting a spiritual application that teaches and Glorifies Him.

  2. "Oh love that will not let me go. I rest my weary soul in thee..." Abundantly more through God's love for me -- even more than I could ask for -- more than I thought was a possibility. I always think of God as "more."

"So [I] have been greatly encouraged in the midst of [my] troubles and suffering, dear brothers and sisters, because you have remained strong in your faith. It gives [me] new life to know that you are standing firm in the Lord. How [I] thank God for you!" (1 Thessalonians 3:7-9)
