God is at the window!


Good evening, boy am I stuffed!!! I ate dinner and got so sleep tired that I indulged and laid down, that was almost 4 hours ago. I am awake now but still feel like I am stuffed! I pray that your dinner was an amazing one and that you are now taking time to relax and enjoy your full tummies and any company that might be visiting with you! 
    In prayer this night I thanked God for the wonderful beautiful blessings in  my life, I asked him to bless each of you with peace, calm, and comfort. That he be a shield of protection for our soldiers wherever they might be this evening, and to allow each of them to feel the love we have for them and the great appreciation we feel. I prayed for all those battling illness, frailty due to age, addictions, depression, financial problems, and lack or loss of faith, asking him to bring us from the darkness and into his light. Father God love and protect each of us, heal our broken parts and let us follow the footsteps all the way back to you. In the name of Christ I ask blessings and mercy upon all. Amen

The Duck and the Devil

There was a little boy visiting his grandparents on their farm. He was given a slingshot to play without in the woods. He practiced in the woods, but he could never hit the target. Getting a little discouraged, he headed back for dinner.

As he was walking back he saw Grandma’s pet duck. Just out of impulse, he let the slingshot fly, hit the duck square in the head, and killed it. He was shocked and grieved. In a panic, he hid the dead duck in the woodpile, only to see his sister watching! Sally had seen it all, but she said nothing.

After lunch the next day Grandma said, “Sally, let’s wash the dishes.” But Sally said, “Grandma, Johnny told me he wanted to help in the kitchen.” Then she whispered to him, “Remember the duck?” So Johnny did the dishes.

Later that day, Grandpa asked if the children wanted to go fishing and Grand! ma said, “I’m sorry but I need Sally to help make supper.” Sally just smiled and said,” Well that’s all right because Johnny told me he wanted to help.” She whispered again, “Remember the duck?”

So Sally went fishing and Johnny stayed to help.

After several days of Johnny doing both his chores and Sally’s he finally couldn’t stand it any longer. He came to Grandma and confessed that he had killed the duck. Grandma knelt down, gave him a hug, and said, “Sweetheart, I know. You see, I was standing at the window and I saw the whole thing. But because I love you, I forgave you. I was just wondering how long you would let Sally make a slave of you.”

Thought for the day and every day thereafter: Whatever is in your past, whatever you have done — and the devil keeps throwing it up in your face (lying, debt, fear, hatred , anger, un-forgiveness, bitterness, etc.) whatever it is, you need to know that God was standing at the window and He saw the whole thing, He has seen your whole life. He wants you to know that He loves you and that you are forgiven. He’s just wondering how long you will let the devil make a slave of you.

The great thing about God is that when you ask for forgiveness, He not only forgives you, but He forgets -
It is by God’s Grace and Mercy that we are saved.

Go ahead and make the difference in someone’s life today.
