John 14:6 NKJV Jesus said to him " I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the father except through me."-----------------------------------------------------If you were told about a beautiful resort with a mansion to stay in, and a river running through the land, would you be interested in hearing more about it? If you found out that it is all inclusive, all expenses paid, would you want to know where it is? If you were told that it is part of of a free gift that anyone can have, would you ask how do i get it? Revelation Chapter 21 gives us a picture of this place- this New Jerusalem. A place with walls made of precious stones, streets of pure gold, and gates made of pearl. A place where there will be no more tears, no more death, no more sorrow, no more crying, no more pain. Our eternal home as believers is beyond our imagination. We will be free to become all that God created us to be- to His praise and Glory. And best of all, we will get to enjoy fellowship with our Lord and Savior forever. It will be a wonderful place to dwell, But there is only one way to get there from here. Jesus paid the price, Jesus built the bridge for us. [ John 3:16] " for God so loved the world that He gave His only begotten son, that whoever believes in Him should not perish but have everlasting life."------------- Jesus died on the cross for our sins ; Past, present, and future. If you have never trusted Jesus as your personal savior, you are missing out on a promise of a better life in heaven. Call out to Him wherever you are- He will meet you there. Admit that you are a sinner [ Romans 3:23] " for all have sinned and fall short of the glory of God."-------- Confess your sin [ 1 John 1:9] " if we confess our sins, He is faithful and just to forgive our sins and cleanse us from all unrighteousness."------ Repent or turn from sin, Proclaim that Jesus is Lord and you will be saved. [ Romans 10: 9,10,13] " that if you confess with your mouth the Lord Jesus and believe in your heart that God raised Him from the dead, you will be saved. For with the heart one believes unto righteousness, and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. v.13 for whoever calls on the name of the Lord shall be saved."---------- Christ's sacrifice on the cross was enough to save everyone ; But we have to make the choice to accept the gift, or to reject the gift. I hope you will accept it now- before it is too late. [ 2 Peter 3:9] " The Lord is not slack concerning His promise, as some count slackness, but is longsuffering toward us, not willing that any should perish but that all should come to repentance."-////

This is the first thing I do every morning :)

"And Jabez called on the God of Israel, saying, Oh that thou wouldest bless me indeed, and enlarge my coast, and that thine hand might be with me, and that thou wouldest keep me from evil, that it may not grieve me! And God granted him that which he requested."

22 And Jokim, and the men of Chozeba, and Joash, and Saraph, who had the dominion in Moab, and Jashubilehem. And these are ancient things.

38 These mentioned by their names were princes in their families: and the house of their fathers increased greatly.

 

39 And they went to the entrance of Gedor, even unto the east side of the valley, to seek pasture for their flocks.

 

40 And they found fat pasture and good, and the land was wide, and quiet, and peaceable; for they of Ham had dwelt there of old.

 

41 And these written by name came in the days of Hezekiah king of Judah, and smote their tents, and the habitations that were found there, and destroyed them utterly unto this day, and dwelt in their rooms: because there was pasture there for their flocks.

 

42 And some of them, even of the sons of Simeon, five hundred men, went to mount Seir, having for their captains Pelatiah, and Neariah, and Rephaiah, and Uzziel, the sons of Ishi.

 

43 And they smote the rest of the Amalekites that were escaped, and dwelt there unto this day.

The Church of the Open Door was conceived by R. A. Torrey who had come to Los Angeles to start a Bible institute (now known as Biola University) similar to Moody Bible Institute. The church was to be strictly non-denominational, though Evangelical. Its purpose was to reach the lost of Los Angeles, which was reflected in the name based on two passages of Scripture: John 10:9 and Revelation 3:8. Other pastors have included Louis T. Talbot (1932–1948) and J. Vernon McGee (1949–1970). The current Pastor is Ed Underwood.

 

For 70 years the church was located in downtown Los Angeles on Hope Street. It relocated to Glendora, California in 1985.

The original church building was located in downtown Los Angeles and was demolished in the late 1980s. Despite efforts led by the late William Eugene Scott to prevent the building from being sold to developers and to have the building saved as a historic landmark, the building could not be saved because it was so damaged in the 1987 Whittier Narrows earthquake that it was declared unsafe and the cost of repairs deemed prohibitive. The historic "Jesus Saves" sign from the original building can now be seen atop the Ace Hotel Los Angeles. It was relocated there by the late William Eugene Scott who took it with him when his church (Los Angeles University Cathedral) relocated following the earthquake.

Only in God is my soul at rest

In Him comes my salvation.

He only is my rock

My strength and my foundation.

 

“For God alone my soul waits in silence; from him comes my salvation. He alone is my rock and my salvation, my fortress; I shall not be greatly moved.”

 

Ps 62

In memory of my friend Sherry. We lost her one year ago today to breast cancer. I thought this would be perfect for Pretty Pink Tuesday.

 

Included in the photo:

bracelets that I wore daily to support her and continue to wear to support those fighting; a scripture that was meaningful to her; a thank you note from her six months before she died.

 

Sweet friend, mother of four, wife, daughter, teacher, inspiration to many, talented singer, my daughter's namesake. I miss her.

CAMP ARIFJAN, Kuwait — Soldiers from the 1st Theater Sustainment Command and the 143d Sustainment Command (Expeditionary) participated in various social and spiritual activities to celebrate the holiday season.

 

On Christmas Eve hundreds of service members, Department of Defense civilians and contractors gathered at a hangar decked out for the holidays. Put together by 1st TSC and 143d ESC Soldiers along with the helping hands of Morale, Welfare and Recreation employees, the event included a buffet dinner, a visit from St. Nicholas and a secret Santa gift exchange in front of a Christmas tree. Several Soldiers and civilians demonstrated their singing or dancing skills on stage during a “Camp Arifjan’s Got Talent” show judged by members of the 143d ESC’s junior enlisted ranks.

 

Though the celebration generated much laughter and applause from the lively crowd, some Soldiers preferred to spend Christmas Eve at a more solemn venue.

 

Chaplains and chaplain assistants deployed to Camp Arifjan hosted a Christmas Eve vigil at the post chapel that evening. The nondenominational Christian service wove scripture readings and traditional Christmas carols before the congregation brought the service to its climax as it illuminated the chapel with hundreds of lit candles.

 

The celebration continued the next day with a 5k run and a Christmas feast served by the 1st TSC and 143d ESC’s senior leadership at Camp Arifjan’s Dining Facilities. The 143d ESC also hosted a barbecue lunch as well as various sporting activities such as volleyball and cornhole.

When I was searching for an ebay name 8 years back I was inspired by this passage of scripture. It's Matthew 19-21. I coined treasureup from this and it stuck. It's a constant reminder to keep an eternal perspective on my life.
