Life According To Plumb

READ: Psalm 119:9-16

Your Word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You. —Psalm 119:11

Charlie Riggs has been called “the man behind Billy Graham.” For nearly 40 years, Riggs was the director of counseling and follow-up for Mr. Graham’s evangelistic meetings. In his counselor training classes, Charlie taught thousands of people the basic principles of how to live for Christ and share their faith with others.

At Charlie’s 90th birthday celebration, many tributes mentioned his lifelong practice of memorizing Scripture. His goal was not merely to know the Bible, but to know Christ and live by His Word.

Charlie followed Psalm 119:9-11, “How can a young man cleanse his way? By taking heed according to Your Word. . . . Your Word I have hidden in my heart, that I might not sin against You.” He likened the Scriptures to “plumb bobs” for his heart. Like the weight that holds a builder’s plumb line straight and true, these divine principles never change, no matter what the circumstances. He sought to measure his own thoughts, feelings, and behavior by God’s Word, not the other way around.

Charlie Riggs’ life was quiet and steady behind the scenes. His example challenges us today to hide God’s Word in our hearts and let it guide our lives. Charlie demonstrated what it means to live according to plumb.

The Bible will transform our lives
And turn us from our sin,
If we will read it and obey
God’s principles within. —Sper

The Bible: Know it in your head, stow it in your heart, show it in your life, sow it in the world.

He Who blessed our forefathers Abraham, Isaac and Jacob - may He bless the fighters of the Israel Defense Force, who stand guard over our land and the cities of our G-d from the border of the Lebanon to the desert of Egypt, and from the Great Sea unto the approach of the Aravah, on the land, in the air, and on the sea.

May HASHEM cause the enemies who rise up against us to be struck down before them. May the Holy One, Blessed is He, preserve and rescue our fighting men from every trouble and distress and from every plague and illness, and may He send blessing and success in their every endeavor.

May He lead our enemies under their sway and may He grant them salvation and crown them with victory. And may there be fulfilled for them the verse: For it is Hashem, your G-d, Who goes with you to battle your enemies for you to save you.

G-d bless and keep your children safe, Alouette.

Hey Kathy,

Very mild here but poor Galveston (Bolivar Penninsula) was decimated, heavy loss of life but order was restored and they are in the process of cleaning up, prayers for them all.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Prayers for our troops, veterans, families, allies, friends, and Canteeners
for a safe and peaceful week ahead.

[Kathy in Alaska]

Thanks for the update....just seeing the pictures of the land scoured of most homes, and knowing so many chose to stay...the outcome had to be bad. Glad order has been restored and clean up goes forward. Prayers for all of them.

[Kathy in Alaska]

The Lord's Prayer

[Poetgal26]

Everyone can I ask you to pray for me please and for the rest of my pregnancy
I am hurting tonight, I have been for a while now.
I can’t get comfy and relax any, can’t sit for long periods, cause it feels like my ribs are pushed up into my chest. I am going to lay down and get some sleep.

Apart of me thinks I am going to give birth to this Angel before Thanksgiving.

Thank you and I appreciate it!

[MEG33]

Isaiah 41:10
~Fear thou not, for I am with thee; be not dismayed, for I am thy God;
I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea,
I will uphold thee with the right hand of my
righteousness.~

Wishing The Canteen And All Who Serve Our Country
A Blessed Lord's Day

Prayers for you and your baby and the rest of your family.

Dear God, please let this baby be born healthy and that her/his
mom gets some rest before hand so she will have the energy
for the task at hand when the time comes.

God bless all of you!
