Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns:

Refuse to get stuck in trying to guess what the future will bring, and what you might have to do. Conjecture is not truth. Take every day as it comes and do the best you can with current circumstances. 

Matthew 6:34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.

Revelation 22

The River of Life
And he showed to me a pure river of water of life, bright as crystal, going forth from out of the throne of God and of the Lamb. In the midst of her square, and of the river, from this side here and from that side there, a tree of life producing twelve fruits, each rendering its fruit by month; and the leaves of the tree were for treatment of the nations. And every great curse shall not be any longer; and the throne of God and of the Lamb will be in her; and His bondmen shall serve to Him. And they shall see His face; and His name is upon their foreheads. And there will be no night there; and they have no need of a lamp, and the light of the sun, for the Lord God enlightens them; and they shall reign into the eons of the eons. And he said to me, These words are trustworthy and true. And the Lord God of the Spirits of the prophets sent His angel to show to His bondmen what must take place quickly. Behold, I come quickly. Blessed is the one giving heed to the words of the prophecy of this scroll. And I John am the one hearing and seeing these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell to do obeisance before the feet of the angel showing to me these things. And he says to me, See that you do not! For I am your fellow-servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of the ones giving heed to the words of this scroll; to God do obeisance! And he says to me, You should not set a seal upon the words of the prophecy of this scroll, for the time is near. The one wronging, let him wrong still! And the filthy one, let him be filthy still! And the righteous, let him do righteousness still! And the holy one, let him be sanctified still! Behold, I come quickly, and My wage is with Me, to render to each as his work will be.

Alpha and Omega
I am the Alpha and the Omega, the Beginning and End, the First and the Last. Blessed are the ones observing His commandments, that their authority will be unto the tree of life, and by the gatehouses they should enter into the city. Outside are the dogs, and the administers of potions, and the fornicators, and the murderers, and the idolaters, and every one being fond of and committing a lie. I, Jesus sent forth My angel to testify to you these things  unto the assemblies. I am the root and the race of David, the bright early morning star. And the Spirit and the bride say, Come! And the one hearing let say, Come! And the one thirsting, let come! The one wanting, let take water of life without charge! I bear witness to every one hearing the words of the prophecy of this scroll; if anyone should add upon these, God will place upon him the calamities being written in this scroll. And if anyone should remove from the words of the scroll of this prophecy, may God remove his part from the tree of life, and from the holy city of the  things having been written in this scroll. The One testifying these  things says, Yes, I come quickly. Amen. Yes, come O Lord Jesus! The favor of our Lord Jesus Christ be with all the holy ones. Amen. 

August 27, 2024. I know you feel like retaliating but it’s not in your best interest. It’s best not to return evil for evil. It is best to return evil with good. When you do this, you become stronger, deeper and wiser. Yes, I know it’s hard, but you should follow the Golden Rule, treating others the way you want to be treated. Let me handle the situation with seedtime and harvest. What you sow will produce a harvest.

1 Peter 3:9  “Don’t repay evil for evil. Don’t snap back at those who say unkind things about you. Instead, pray for God’s help for them, for we are to be kind to others, and God will bless us for it.”  Robin Robinson Bohlin 

August 27, 2024. I’ve heard you say, Lord, I want to feel Your presence, I want a sign that You are with me. I say to you that I am in the details of your life. Just as you feel the wind blow across your face, I am the One blowing the air. Just as the waves return to the sea, I am the One moving the waters. I am the very breath you take. I am with you.

Joshua 1:9 “Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.”

Hebrews 13:5-6 “Don’t be obsessed with getting more material things. Be relaxed with what you have. Since God assured us, “I’ll never let you down, never walk off and leave you,” we can boldly quote, God is there, ready to help; I’m fearless no matter what. Who or what can get to me?” Pam Jackson
