The Peace of God

-Red Petunias in flower box with Old Fashioned Pink Holly Hocks growing up through them :o)

 Philippians 4:4-9


..."Rejoice in the Lord always; again I will say, rejoice!


Let your gentle spirit be known to all men. The Lord is near.


Be anxious for nothing, but in everything by prayer and supplication with thanksgiving let your requests be made known to God.


And the peace of God, which surpasses all comprehension, will guard your hearts and your minds in Christ Jesus.


Finally, brethren, whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is right, whatever is pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is of good repute, if there is any excellence and if anything worthy of praise, dwell on these things.


The things you have learned and received and heard and seen in me, practice these things, and the God of peace will be with you."...

The Peace Of God


Don't you worry about anything

Instead pray about everything

Tell God what you need

And thank Him for all He has done


And the peace of God

Far beyond what we can understand

Will guard your heart 

And your mind in Christ Jesus

Putting Out Fires

-Candair CL215

..."But realize this, that in the last days difficult times will come. 

For men will be lovers of self, lovers of money, boastful, arrogant, revilers, disobedient to parents, ungrateful, unholy, unloving, irreconcilable, malicious gossips, without self-control, brutal, haters of good, treacherous, reckless, conceited, lovers of pleasure rather than lovers of God, holding to a form of godliness, although they have denied its power; Avoid such men as these. 

For among them are those who enter into households and captivate weak women weighed down with sins, led on by various impulses, always learning and never able to come to the knowledge of the truth. 

Just as Jannes and Jambres opposed Moses, so these men also oppose the truth, men of depraved mind, rejected in regard to the faith. 

But they will not make further progress; for their folly will be obvious to all, just as Jannes’s and Jambres’s folly was also.

Now you followed my teaching, conduct, purpose, faith, patience, love, perseverance, persecutions, and sufferings, such as happened to me at Antioch, at Iconium and at Lystra; what persecutions I endured, and out of them all the Lord rescued me! 

Indeed, all who desire to live godly in Christ Jesus will be persecuted. 

But evil men and impostors will proceed from bad to worse, deceiving and being deceived. 

You, however, continue in the things you have learned and become convinced of, knowing from whom you have learned them, and that from childhood you have known the sacred writings which are able to give you the wisdom that leads to salvation through faith which is in Christ Jesus. 

All Scripture is inspired by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness; so that the man of God may be adequate, equipped for every good work."
