SEEK TO KNOW GOD BETTER
[For my determined purpose is] that I may know Him [that I may progressively become more deeply and intimately acquainted with Him, perceiving and recognizing and understanding the wonders of His Person more strongly and more clearly]. Philippians 3:10
This was the cry of the apostle Pauls heart as he sought to have such a deep relationship with Christ that the trials of life would barely be noticeable.
At the beginning of this new year, it is a wise thing for you to seek also. There are plenty of problems in life that can weigh you down and cause you to become discouraged, but God wants to provide the strength and power you need to be victorious in every battle of life. Such a relationship requires that you seek God like never before. So start this year right by becoming more deeply and intimately acquainted with the One who has all power in heaven and earth.

Happy New Year!
I'm still at my sister's place and yes, we have been playing a lot of cards nightly.
Besides seeing my Sister, I've been visiting an old friend out on the Washington coast for a few days and am now back with Sister, and I return home tomorrow.

To: All
Dear God: I ask that no Airman, Coast Guardsman, Marine, Sailor, Soldier, Reservist, National Guardsman, or Merchant Marine feel alone or forgotten.
O Israel, hope in the Lord; For with the Lord there is loving kindness, And with Him is abundant redemption. And He will redeem Israel From all his iniquities.
Psalm 130:7 & 8

Howdy, Kathy.
I saw there was a 3.3 quake this morning practically in downtown Anchorage. Don’t reckon that was a fun way to start the day.

The Greater Glory
January 6, 2019
In those days Caesar Augustus issued a decree that a census should be taken of the entire Roman world.
Luke 2:1
Caesar Augustus is remembered as the first and greatest of the Roman emperors. By political skill and military power he eliminated his enemies, expanded the empire, and lifted Rome from the clutter of rundown neighborhoods into a city of marble statues and temples. Adoring Roman citizens referred to Augustus as the divine father and savior of the human race. As his forty-year reign came to an end, his official last words were, I found Rome a city of clay but left it a city of marble. According to his wife, however, his last words were actually, Have I played the part well? Then applaud as I exit.
What Augustus didnt know is that hed been given a supporting role in a bigger story. In the shadow of his reign, the son of a carpenter was born to reveal something far greater than any Roman military victory, temple, stadium, or palace (Luke 2:1).
But who could have understood the glory Jesus prayed for on the night His countrymen demanded His crucifixion by Roman executioners? (John 17:45). Who could have foreseen the hidden wonder of a sacrifice that would be forever applauded in heaven and earth?
Its quite a story. Our God found us chasing foolish dreams and fighting among ourselves. He left us singing together about an old rugged cross.
Father in heaven, please help us to see through and beyond the passing glory of everything but Your love.
The glory we need is the glory of the cross.
The word glory (or glorify) is very prominent in Johns gospel. In John 17 alone its used nine times. Its derived from the base word doxa, which means glory, honor, or praise. Our word doxology (a short hymn of worship) comes from this term. In John, the word glory surfaces first in chapter 1, verse 14. The second time is in John 2:11 where at Cana we read that Jesus revealed his glory by turning water into wine. Through the life, death, and resurrection of Jesus, God was and is honored or glorified.

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.
