 God With Us

Happy Friday!

Help for Ukraine

According to world news. Good News: The stand to force Russian out of Ukraine. Extending mercy is beautiful.  Gas prices may be up but helping this country is far more important. People are fleeing their homes, jobs, and losing their possessions. Our experience is minor in comparison to what they are going through. The enemy always wants to punish people for good deeds, but God will reward those that aid, pray, help, and support. 

A conversation About a woman who was in need: 

Bystander: Every time someone helps her bad things happen to them.

Priest: It is because the enemy bullies' people with the hopes that they will not help their neighbor. He threatens them. 

Bystander: Well, I don't want trouble at my door. I don't want anything happening to me. I would rather do nothing.

Priest: If you refuse to help or ignore this issue it's only a matter of time before the enemy will definitely be at your door too. 

Priest: fight the good fight

Sometimes it takes just standing for what is right.

Don't hide and ignore. Have faith in God. 

Psalm 71

1 In you, Lord, I have taken refuge.

    let me never be put to shame.

2 In your righteousness, rescue me and deliver me;

    turn your ear to me and save me.

3 Be my rock of refuge,

    to which I can always go;

give the command to save me,

    for you are my rock and my fortress.

4 Deliver me, my God, from the hand of the wicked,

    from the grasp of those who are evil and cruel.

Luke cont...

Blessings

"Blessed are you who are poor, 

for yours is the Kingdom of God.

Blessed are you who hunger now, 

for you will be satisfied.

Blessed are you who weep now, 

for you will laugh.

Blessed are you when people hate you, 

when they exclude you and insult you

and reject your name as evil, 

because of the Son of Man.

Rejoice in that day and leap for joy, 

because great is your reward in heaven. 

For that is how their ancestors treated the prophets.

Have a beautiful Day!
