OUR COVENANT WITH GOD



Abram accepted the covenant God offered him, "I Am God Almighty; walk before me and be blameless. I will confirm my covenant between me and you and will greatly increase your numbers." Abram fell face-down, and God said to him, "As for me, this is my covenant with you: you will be the father of many nations. No longer will you be called Abram: your name will be Abraham, for I have made you a father of many nations." (Genesis 17:1-5). Like Abraham, we also have a covenant with God; we are asked by God to "walk before Him" loving one another as He has loved us. When we are in covenant with God, we humbly submit ourselves, innocent from self-centered interest, to obey His commands to love our God with all of our being, and to love our neighbor as ourselves. Fulfilling the covenant with God, Abraham received the blessing of familial prosperity. God's desire is to grant prosperity to each of our lives. Are we faithful in our love of God and each other?

Seagulls have 2 redeeming qualitys.

They will lead you to land or fish.

They will also lead you to a garbage scowl, but thats another matter.

Chicken recipe I gave is fast, flavorful, and so moist you can cut it with a fork.

Thats the way el pollo loco is, its marinated in citrus. Its fall apart tender.

Its not overly sweet. I dont care for overly sweet or sour for that matter. Not for dinner anyway.

I read some old whaling stories about the Essex. (scary story involving cannibalism)

Even they didnt like seagull. Now that’s saying something about seagull!
