Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:
I keep hearing the lyrics of an old song–pick yourself up, dust yourself off, and start all over again. It is indeed good advice for these days. Let today be a new day and a new beginning. Leave the past behind, and look with hope to the future.
Isaiah 43:18-19 Do not remember the former things, nor consider the things of old. Behold, I will do a new thing, now it shall spring forth; shall all you not know it? I will even make a road in the wilderness and rivers in the desert.
Revelation 15
The Angels with the Seven Calamities
And I saw another sign in the heaven, great and wonderful, seven angels having the last seven calamities, for in them the rage of God was finished. And I saw as a glass sea with fire being mixed, and the ones overcoming of the beast, and of his image, and of the number of his name, standing upon the glass sea, having harps of God. And they sing the ode of Moses the bondman of God, and the ode of the Lamb, saying, Great and wonderful are Your works, O Lord God almighty; just and true are Your ways, O King of the nations. Who in no way should fear You, O Lord, and glorify Your name? For You alone are holy. For all the nations shall come and shall do obeisance before You, for Your ordinances were manifested. And after these things I saw, and the temple of the tent of the testimony was opened in the heaven. And came forth the seven angels, the ones having the seven calamities, the ones who were being clothed in clean and bright flax, and being girded around the breasts by golden belts. And one from the four living creatures gave to the seven angels seven golden bowls being full of the rage of God, of the one living into the eons of the eons. And the temple was filled of smoke from the glory of God, and from His power; and no one was able to enter into the temple until the seven calamities of the seven angels were finished.
August 20, 2024. I want you to trust Me as Jesus did while hanging on the cross. The pain and rejection were almost unbearable. Those that He had served and sown into had abandoned Him. I know that you have been abandoned, rejected and those you have helped left without a trace. Do as He did, saying “Father, forgive them because they don’t know what they are doing.” Do the same and you will be at peace just as He was.
Luke 23:34 “But Jesus was saying, “Father, forgive them; for they do not know what they are doing.” And they cast lots, dividing up His garments among themselves.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
August 20, 2015. (Reposted 8-20-24) Make it a point to intentionally receive the Holy Spirit. You have heard and have been instructed about Him. But have you invited the Holy Spirit to come live and move inside you? Make this your priority today. Invite this most powerful Holy Spirit to come in and take over. He will shine light on Jesus and reveal Him in all His dimensions and ministries to and through you. When He manifests Himself in and through you, your whole world will change for the better.
John 20:22-23 “Then he breathed on them and said, “Receive the Holy Spirit. If you forgive anyone’s sins, they are forgiven. If you do not forgive them, they are not forgiven.”Ras Robinson
