They are NEW EVERY MORNING: great is thy faithfulness."

~ ~ ~I've been updating the site contest / rating buttons at the bottom of every page because of different groups "disappearing", and their buttons being "x"-ed out. It takes a LONG while, but to me that is a part of having a spirit of excellence for the glory of my LORD!
AAAAAAA!!!!! Just when I finished the 250 some pages and started on the
360 something hymn devotionals, another one disappeared!!!!!!
Please bear with me as I try to keep our site broken link-free!!

There are no 'accidents' with God in control....
Beloved, think it not strange concerning the fiery trial which is to try you, as though some strange thing happened unto you:
But rejoice, inasmuch as ye are partakers of Christ's sufferings; that, when his glory shall be revealed, ye may be glad also with exceeding joy. ~ I Peter 4:12 & 13
GOD is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble.... ~ Psalm 46:1
To every thing there is a season,
and a time to every purpose under the heaven:
A time to love, and a time to hate; a time of war, and a time of peace.... ~ Ecclesiastes 3:1 & 8
And they that know thy name will put their trust in thee: for thou, LORD, hast not forsaken them that seek thee. ~ Psalm 9:10

~ ~ ~This one thing I have learned through our time of trials in 2005 & 2006...oh, and now 2007 *_*:
JEHOVAH Jireh - The LORD will Provide.
So many times in my life, I have said that. I have believed that. Yet I saw the paychecks coming in. I was seeing Him provide through my Dad, through my own labor, through my husband / the Navy. Now, I see Him providing through so many different vessels, and I am humbled to tears...albeit, tears of deep joy. Our God, Whom we serve with a willing heart, is providing for us; and I cannot thank Him enough.
Hugs to you, to all my brothers and sisters in Christ who have prayed so faithfully. Praying friends and family are more precious than gold in a time of need.
~ ~ ~PRAISE THE LORD! I just got permission from Kim Moore--a songwriter--to include the lyrics to her song in the ninth book in The Bennett Vignettes, Run the Race.
God Makes No Mistakes
My life I give to You, O Lord.
Use me, I pray.
May I glorify Your precious name
In all I do and say.
Let me trust You in the valley dark
As well as in the light,
Knowing You will always lead me;
Your will is always right!
I know God makes no mistakes.
He leads in ev’ry path I take
Along the way that’s leading me to Home.
Though at times my heart would break,
There’s a purpose in ev’ry change He makes:
That others would see my life
And know that God makes no mistakes.
And when someday in Heav’n above
I see His dear face,
May I then be counted faithful
As a runner in this race.
But now I’m trusting in the Savior
To show me the way.
In His righteousness He guides me,
As I seek to please Him day by day.
I know God makes no mistakes.
He leads in ev’ry path I take
Along the way that’s leading me to Home.
Though at times my heart would break,
There’s a purpose in ev’ry change He makes:
That others would see my life and know that God...
Our God makes no mistakes.
I know....

4 Seests in Paradise's Devotionals just passed the 100,000 mark!
That is such a blessing!
The main reason our site is online is really the main reason all Christians are HERE:
to reach the lost with the Gospel
and
to encourage other believers to walk in obedience...in Christlikeness.

Okay, did anyone notice all of the "Sewing Bees"?
"Pleasant words are as an honeycomb, sweet to the soul, and health to the bones." Proverbs 16:24
~ ~ ~
It is said of the virtuous woman "in her tongue is the law of kindness" (Proverbs 31:26b)
I've also heard that we need to keep our words "sweet" because we may have to EAT them some day! ...kind of makes the pet name "honey" a very "sweet"
compliment *_*
Bee SWEET!!!
