Sunday Scripture 3/10

Genesis 1:26
And God said,  Let us make man in our image,  after our likeness ;


It really is that simple. We were created in God's image, if more would remember that and reflect that image.

Sunday Scripture 2/24

Proverbs 3: 5,6
Trust in the Lord with all thine heart and lean not on thine own understanding , in all thy ways acknowledge him and he shall direct thy paths.


Sometimes it is hard to trust him, you think you know what is best for you or your children, but God knows much better what he has planned. When we trust him, he makes his plan available to us.

Sunday Scripture 2/17

This week my list of inspirational scriptures grew as the week went on, I finally settled on one to share.

Psalms 86:6
King James Version (KJV)

⁶ Give ear, O Lord, unto my prayer; and attend to the voice of my supplications.

Prayer is a powerful thing and been on my mind a lot lately.

Have a great week!

Sunday Scripture 2/10

John 8:58
Verily, Verily I say to you, Before Abraham was, I am.


I love this passage, it simply tells them that before the man you so highly regard  , Christ was and will always be.

Sunday Scripture, a little late in the week

I Corinthians 13:8 (to 1st .)

                                                   Love never fails.

Such a simple verse, but a powerful thought. God never fails us.

Scripture Sunday 1/6/13

Psalm 66:19

Amplified Bible (AMP)

¹⁹ But certainly God has heard me; He has given heed to the voice of my prayer.

Psalm 66:19

King James Version (KJV)

¹⁹ But verily God hath heard me; he hath attended to the voice of my prayer.

From 

Science and Health with Key to the Scripture by Mary Baker Eddy

pg 15:14-18

 In order to pray aright, we must enter into the1515 closet and shut the door. We must close the lips andEffectual invocationsilence the material senses. In the quietsanctuary of earnest longings, we must1818 deny sin and plead God’s allness.

My goal for this year is to post a  Bible scripture and a piece from Science and Health with Key to the Scripture by Mary Baker Eddy the textbooks used in our weekly service. I will pull from a copy of our weekly Bible Lesson and share my own personal thoughts as well.

Prayer is a powerful thing. I have read several books about prayers in the last couple years, but one things always seems to be left out, God hears my prayers even before I speak them. It is that voice, that God give voice that he hears. 

I am so grateful that he hears my cries even when I can't put them into words. 

Scripture Sunday 12/30/2012

This is the last Sunday of the year and what a year it has been.

This week the Golden Text for the weekly bible lesson was simply beautiful. 

2 Corinthians 9:15

King James Version (KJV)

¹⁵ Thanks be unto God for his unspeakable gift.



Have a blessed New Year.

Scripture Sunday 12/24

We had an all day family Christmas yesterday so I am posting Scripture Sunday on Monday.
Praying you have a Blessed Christmas with Family and Friends.

Isaiah 9:6-7

King James Version (KJV)

⁶ For unto us a child is born, unto us a son is given: and the government shall be upon his shoulder: and his name shall be called Wonderful, Counsellor, The mighty God, The everlasting Father, The Prince of Peace.
⁷ Of the increase of his government and peace there shall be no end, upon the throne of David, and upon his kingdom, to order it, and to establish it with judgment and with justice from henceforth even for ever. The zeal of the Lord of hosts will perform this.

In light of recent events this passage seemed so perfect. The prophecy of his birth and his ultimate power over our world spoke to my heart. 

I pray my boys will grow to understand that which he is called.

Wonderful

Counselor

Almighty God

Everlasting Father

Prince of Peace

Knowing that the government will be on HIS shoulders, the earthly government isn't the government the verse is reffing to , but the government of the spiritual. The peace is that of knowing and being at- one with God.
Knowing that God is in control of this world and our spiritual world makes my heart lighter.

Sunday Scripture December 16th

I wasn't sure what I was going to share this week, but these verses spoke to be this weekend.

John 1:1-3

1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

² The same was in the beginning with God.

³ All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made.

Sunday Scripture 12/9

I wasn't going to post a Sunday Scripture this week since I am posting our Fruit of the Spirit lesson with lots of verse, but felt like this verse was telling me to share.

Nehemiah 9:6

King James Version (KJV)

⁶ Thou, even thou, art Lord alone; thou hast made heaven, the heaven of heavens, with all their host, the earth, and all things that are therein, the seas, and all that is therein, and thou preservest them all; and the host of heaven worshippeth thee.


Have a wonderful week!

Scripture Sunday November 18th

1 Corinthians 2:12,13

¹² Now we have received, not the spirit of the world, but the spirit which is of God; that we might know the things that are freely given to us of God.

¹³ Which things also we speak, not in the words which man's wisdom teacheth, but which the Holy Ghost teacheth; comparing spiritual things with spiritual.

This one stood out for me in reading last week's lesson. 

So did this one:

1 Corinthians 6:20

²⁰ For ye are bought with a price: therefore glorify God in your body, and in your spirit, which are God's.

Hope you have a blessed week of gratitude.

Scripture Sunday November 4th

A couple of days late , but I still wanted to share a passage that really hit me from the weekly lesson.

Jude 1:21

    Keep yourselves in the love of the Lord looking for the mercy of our Lord Jesus Christ unto eternal life.

Especially today being Election day here in the United States, this verse really struck me and gives me a sense of peace in today.

Sunday Scripture 6/17

We took a week off from school so the boys didn't have to copy the text but did have to read it.

O Lord God of hosts, who is a strong Lord like unto thee? 

 The heavens are thine, the earth also is thine: as for the world and the fullness thereof, thou hast founded 

them. Psalms 89:8a ,11

Scripture Sunday May 20

...hope thou in God:  for I shall yet praise him , who is the health of my countenance, and my God.
Psalms 42: 11b
This week's verse introduced the boys to new concepts and a few new words,.but they did well.

Scripture Sunday

This week the boys had a longer text to copy, but it gave them something to think about.
...when that which is perfect is come, then that which is in part shall be done away... For now we see through a glass, darkly; but then face to face:
1 Corinthians 13: 10, 12
