AS FOR ME AND MY HOUSEHOLD, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD. ( JOSHUA 24:15 *NIV )
As a child of GOD, we are to strive to become as much like CHRIST as we can possibly be. Remember that CHRIST came as a Servant, not as a Great King, and Serving others is an important way of becoming more like JESUS!
After all our Savior JESUS CHRIST said: “FOR EVEN THE SON OF MAN DID NOT COME TO BE SERVED BUT TO SERVE, AND TO GIVE HIS LIFE AS A RANSOM FOR MANY.” ( MARK 10:45 )
Therefore we should also, BE VERY CAREFUL TO KEEP THE COMMANDMENT AND THE LAW THAT MOSES THE SERVANT OF THE LORD GAVE YOU: TO HOLD FAST TO HIM AND TO SERVE HIM WITH ALL YOUR HEART AND WITH ALL YOUR SOUL. ( JOSHUA 22:5 )
Now, we may do that by sharing our love with each other, and by Serving our Heavenly Father as well. Some Serve GOD by teaching Sunday School, others by helping people who are in need! After all, there are many ways to Serve our Heavenly Father.
Therefore why not volunteer to help others when the need arises, SINCE YOU KNOW THAT YOU WILL RECEIVE AN INHERITANCE FROM THE LORD AS A REWARD. IT IS THE LORD CHRIST YOU ARE SERVING. Amen. ( COLOSSIANS 3:24 )
Let not your heart be troubled

BLESSED BE THE GOD AND FATHER OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST, THE FATHER OF MERCIES AND THE GOD OF ALL COMFORT. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 1:3 *NKJV )
GOD is our comforter when troubles hit our life. For HE is the one: WHO COMFORTS US IN ALL OUR TRIBULATION, THAT WE MAY COMFORT THOSE WHO ARE IN ANY TROUBLE WITH THE COMFORT WITH WHICH WE OURSELVES ARE COMFORTED BY GOD. ( 2 CORINTHIANS 1:4 )
After all it is written: THOUGH I WALK THROUGH THE VALLEY OF THE SHADOW OF DEATH, I WILL FEAR NO EVIL; FOR YOU ARE WITH ME; YOUR ROD AND YOUR STAFF, THEY COMFORT ME. ( PSALM 23:4 )
Indeed, HE comforts those who turn to HIM, and HE even tells us to, “BE STRONG AND OF GOOD COURAGE, DO NOT FEAR NOR BE AFRAID OF THEM; FOR THE LORD YOUR GOD, HE IS THE ONE WHO GOES WITH YOU. HE WILL NEVER LEAVE YOU NOR FORSAKE YOU.” ( DEUTERONOMY 31:6 )
So, remember the words of our Savior JESUS CHRIST, for HE said: “LET NOT YOUR HEART BE TROUBLED; YOU BELIEVE IN GOD; BELIEVE ALSO IN ME.” ( JOHN 14:1 )
Now, BRETHREN MAY THE GRACE OF OUR LORD JESUS CHRIST BE WITH YOUR SPIRIT! AMEN. ( GALATIANS 6:18 )
Always put your hope and trust in God
Jul 3rd
FOR YOU ARE MY HOPE, O LORD GOD; YOU ARE MY TRUST FROM MY YOUTH. ( PSALM 71:5 *NIV )
When ever you feel stressed, worried or overwhelmed by things or people in this World, always put your hope and trust in our Heavenly Father. Have faith that He will guide you through the stumbling blocks that life has put before you! For it is written: DO NOT FEAR, FOR I AM WITH YOU; DO NOT BE DISMAYED, FOR I AM YOUR GOD. ( ISAIAH 41:10 )
Therefore never try to make decisions or to fight the battles of life alone. Always ask God in prayer for the answers. He will then, not only provide answers and guidance, but also will bless you as well, for it is written: BLESSED IS THE MAN WHO TRUSTS IN THE LORD, WHOSE CONFIDENCE IS IN HIM. ( JEREMIAH 17:7 )
So, make sure that you, TRUST IN HIM AT ALL TIMES, YOU PEOPLE; POUR OUT YOUR HEART BEFORE HIM; GOD IS A REFUGE FOR US. ( PSALM 62:8 )
In closing, I pray that, THE GOD OF HOPE FILL YOU WITH ALL JOY AND PEACE AS YOU TRUST IN HIM, SO THAT YOU MAY OVERFLOW WITH HOPE BY THE POWER OF THE HOLY SPIRIT. Amen ( ROMANS 15:13 )
