A PRAYER OF PROTECTION
The light of God surround you The love of God enfold you The power of God protect you The presence of God watch over you Wherever you are, God is, And all is well. Amen.
BLESS THIS HOUSE Bless this house O Lord we pray; Make it safe by night and day;
Bless these walls so firm and stout, Keeping want and trouble out:
Bless the roof and chimneys tall, Let thy peace lie over all;
Bless this door, that it may prove ever open to joy and love.
Bless these windows shining bright, Letting in God's heav'nly light;
Bless the hearth a'blazing there, with smoke ascending like a prayer;
Bless the folk who dwell within, keep them pure and free from sin;
Bless us all that we may be Fit O Lord to dwell with thee;
Bless us all that one day we May dwell O Lord with thee.

Good evening, Mac...*HUGS*...I’ve been listening to Mark Levin in Virginia and he kept talking about the huge storm going on. Are you in it?
Lots of clouds today, but mostly sun...hoping for more rain this week.

I missed Mark Levin this evening - I always try to listen to him on my way home - got home this evening before his show started. The map shows heavy thunderstorms all around us, but all is calm here up to now.

Keep Calm And Carry On
June 12, 2014
Read: Ezra 5:7-17
Keep calm and call mom. Keep calm and eat bacon. Keep calm and put the kettle on. These sayings originate from the phrase: Keep Calm and Carry On. This message first appeared in Great Britain as World War II began in 1939. British officials printed it on posters designed to offset panic and discouragement during the war.
Having returned to the land of Israel after a time of captivity, the Israelites had to overcome their own fear and enemy interference as they began to rebuild the temple (Ezra 3:3). Once they finished the foundation, their opponents hired counselors against them to frustrate their purpose (4:5). Israels enemies also wrote accusing letters to government officials and successfully delayed the project (vv.6,24). Despite this, King Darius eventually issued a decree that allowed them to complete the temple (6:12-14).
When we are engaged in Gods work and we encounter setbacks, we can calmly carry on because, like the Israelites, We are the servants of the God of heaven and earth (5:11). Obstacles and delays may discourage us, but we can rest in Jesus promise: I will build my church, and all the powers of hell will not conquer it (Matt. 16:18 nlt). It is Gods power that enables His work, not our own.
Thou art our life, by which alone we live,
And all our substance and our strength receive.
Sustain us by Thy faith and by Thy power,
And give us strength in every trying hour. Psalter
Gods Spirit gives the power to our witness.
