MAY YOU ALWAYS HAVE LOVE JOY AND PEACE!



What is your greatest concern in life?! What is the one thing in life that causes your heart to cry out for it most passionately? What is your first thought each morning? What is that one thing that makes your heart soar higher than all other things? In Luke 10:41-42 Martha was all wrapped up in serving God according to the customs of her day. She was all engrossed in and driven by worldly distractions and appearances. So much so that she was frustrated that Mary would not leave her chosen desire to help her fulfill hers. She requested of the Lord that He command Mary to leave His presence and join her in her worry and upset that the details of worldly protocol might be viewed as less than perfect.
In all actuality Martha was wrapped up in and indulging the desire of her flesh. (Just think of it, her request of God was, "Lord, make Mary do what I want instead of what you have commanded of her." Martha knew of the command to put God first. All the Israelites knew this commandment) However, Mary had chosen to obey it and refused to be distracted from that which held her heart spell-bound and enraptured with joy! The pleasure of Christ presence was so dear to her that the world could not rob her of that which she derived from sitting captivated at His feet. Mary understood that in God's presence there is pleasure, provision and protection. See Psalm 91; 16:11. And she was not going to miss out on that for anything the world could demand of or offer her.

God wants His children to learn that the greatest truth in life is that seeking Him first will put everything else in the proper perspective. And keep you always in His presence. See Matthew 6:33. There is one most interesting thing about God, He never tells His people to worry. In fact He forbids it in His family. Philippians 4:6-7, Psalm 37:8. He tells us to seek His presence, to put Him and His kingdom's welfare first, to behold His beauty and inquire of Him concerning His perfect will and plan of us. 1 Chronicles 28:9. And when we do this, when trouble comes our way, (and it will surely come) He will hide us in His pavilion, in His secret place. He will place us high upon the rock of our salvation where trouble must flee and the warmth of His love will comfort, protect and provide all of our needs according to the riches of His glory. See Psalm 27:4-5; Philippians 4:19. This is not merely a theory to be debated but a reality to be experienced.

Many are the stumbling blocks that are set before each of us to keep us from God's presence. Because, that is where peace abounds and blessings flow. Christ has freed us from the curse of the law, but He has not freed us from the obligation of living according to or by it. Therefore, seek His face, and He will teach you His ways. And lead you in a smooth path, because it is only He who knows all the onslaughts, and ambushes of your enemies. Psalm See 27:11. Copyright © Sylvia F. Liani 2009

I do pray that you, my beloved, are having a HAPPY DAY!!

IF THE SHOE FITS who you are wear it with boldness for the glory of the one who made it fit! Ephesians 6:15.



How beautiful are your feet, O Bride of Christ, as you bring the good news that will set those who are still held captive by satan to freedom. Your actions are like bright shinning jewels clustered together carrying out the works the Father has prepared for you to accomplish in the name of His Son. The works of your hands are directed and applied by the skillfulness of God's own hand and accompanied by the fragrance of Jesus, the rose of Sharon. God has brought you into His very own banqueting house that you may feast on His excellence as His banner of love waves encouragingly over you! God has raised you to a place of influence, power and authority in Christ, a place of rulership for the saving of nations. By His exhibition of Himself through you! And He wants you to know that His blessings are always greater than satan's ability to deceive and defraud you. Therefore, believe unwaveringly in the sufficiency of His word. God has given you every gift that is needed to fulfill the purpose for which He created you. For that reason let us break forth in joy and sing together as we carry the Gospel of His kingdom, of peace (wholeness of life) and mercy to the ends of the earth. See: Luke 4:18-19; Isaiah 52:7; Song of Solomon 1:2, 4; Romans 10:15. Remember as Jesus is so are you IN THIS WORLD. Consequently, we can have boldness now in this life and on the Day of Judgment. We can face the enemy tenaciously and victoriously every place we encounter him. By holding on to all the inheritance that is ours in Christ we can stand on the certainty of the Word and watch him flee from our resistance of Him. See 1 John 4:17; James 4:7. O Happy day when Jesus washed our sins away! Copyright © Sylvia F. Liani 2009

Frank's a great guy, isn't he? And he always has very nice things to say about you...

My life? It always surprises me what other people find interesting. lol (Yet I can't understand why my anthropological discussions make my husband snore. Go figure. But it's alright--he pays me back by talking football.)

Hi there!

He saved us from all that. It was all his doing; we had nothing to do with it. He gave us a good bath, and we came out of it new people, washed inside and out by the Holy Spirit. Titus 3:5 The Message
I pray that you see yourself cleansed - not by your own efforts, but by the grace of your Loving Abba Daddy.
