The picture before you is a copy of one of the most significant books in the history of the reformation. It is a copy, a fascimilie, of the Geneva Bible published in 1560 a.d. What makes it unique is it is the first study bible ever made, having notes and references within each page (annotations); it was the known bible brought with the pilgrims (on the Mayflower) when coming to the new world; it preceeded the King James Bible by 51 years; it was the main bible used by the protestants during the reformation; it was the first bible to use verse numbers based on the works of Stephanus. Want to know more? Google it... you will be suprised at how this translation has influenced much of our world's history.
The above passage is from John 3:16-17.
For the LORD is a great God, and a great King above all gods. In his hand are the deep places of the earth: the strength of the hills is his also.
The sea is his, and he made it: and his hands formed the dry land. O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the LORD our maker.
Psalm 95:3-6 KJV

Class rolls for scripture and ethics classes at the public school where I volunteer to teach Primary Ethics classes. Ethics started with 3 classes when I began 2.5 years ago. Now we have seven Ethics classes, the same number as both Anglican and Catholic scripture.

Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.
-Matthew 5:11-12
"There is No Fear in LOVE, but perfect LOVE drives out Fear because Fear has to do with punishment, and so one who Fears is not yet perfect in LOVE." 1 John 4:18

WHAT IS THE LORD PERSONALLY SAYING TO ME?
Trusting that God will be with us in our trials, sets us free to continue on in confidence, and in a calm fashion. Believing/Knowing that God is ALWAYS at our side gives us the courage to take on each day. But we must stay close to Him in scripture and prayer or we will easily go astray or get distracted by the things of this world 🌎 ...
WHAT DOES THE LORD PERSONALLY WANT ME TO DO?
Keep holding hands with Jesus and Mary, (that's why we have two hands...) stay close to God in the Sacraments and Sacramentals (Holy Water, Rosary, Scapular, Christian Art, a Crucifix or Cross necklace, etc.) that He has given us. Read/Study the Bible each day, Pray several times a day. This is a RELATIONSHIP after all. The more we engage in it the more it flourishes, the more fruits will come from it and #Fear will be far from us.
PRAYER
“Lord Jesus, thank you for being with me and helping me to face my fears.” #prayer from www.wau.org check out today's reflection.
