Small Straws In A Soft Wind by Marsha Burns: There are plenty of people who will beat you up for making a mistake, but that does not mean that you must whip yourself also. Fix what you can when you can and move on. Nobody on the earth is perfect, but that does not mean that you should not try to do the best you can in every situation. Gather your strength and forge ahead.
Isaiah 41:10 Fear not, for I am with you; be not dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you, Yes, I will help you, I will establish you with My righteous right hand.

I know your sorrow and I feel your pain but you must remember that I am working things for your good – even the bad events – they are working for your good. Begin to think on the good. A positive outlook in a negative situation will eventually lead to joy. Give yourself permission to be happy and smile, it will change your whole outlook.
1 Thessalonians 4:13 “We do not want you to be uninformed, brothers and sisters, concerning those who are asleep, so that you will not grieve like the rest, who have no hope.” Robin Robinson Bohlin
December 16, 2024. Your life is full of choices. Today I say to you, be very careful about the choices that you make. The right choices will lead you down the right path to Me and the wrong choices will lead you into the direction of the world. The enemy is cunning and will use fear and lies to entice you down the wrong path. My Spirit is with you and will always lead you into what is best for you!
Galatians 5:16-17 “But I say, walk by the Spirit, and you will not carry out the desire of the flesh. For the flesh sets its desire against the Spirit, and the Spirit against the flesh; for these are in opposition to one another, so that you may not do the things that you please.” Jonas Bohlin
December 16, 2013. (Reposted) Put your hope in Me. Your hope placed in anyone else will lead to disappointment. I always know what is best for you. I have plans that have been working since before you were born. Make your choices in line with those plans. Seek Me, and do what I say even when you don’t know if you have heard Me exactly. If you stay in My stream and your heart is to obey, I will turn you to walking in My path and you will eventually arrive at the right destination.
Jeremiah 7:23 “But this is what I commanded them, saying, ‘Obey My voice, and I will be your God, and you shall be My people. And walk in all the ways that I have commanded you, that it may be well with you.’” Bev Robinson
December 16, 2013. (Reposted) Giving thanks continually as a part of your daily prayer is as good a spiritual discipline as you can find. Do you have a difficult time being thankful in all circumstances? Though difficult, I choose to join the ranks of King David in the early morning prayers. I repent (our pastor stressed this yesterday in his sermon and prayers). Scripture clearly says we are to continually be thankful “in” (but does not say “for”) all things whether in a festival, prison, high worship service or when there is great loss or gain financially or an unexpected medical issue.
1 Thessalonians 5:16-18 “Always be joyful. Never stop praying. Be thankful in all circumstances, for this is God’s will for you who belong to Christ Jesus.” Ras Robinson
