Granny's Corner

Have you ever sat and thought about grandma sayings? I remember my Grannie use to tell me to plant a seed. Plant a seed of God's word. The same principle applies to God's word in our lives. The bible tells us "Thy word have I hid in my heart that I may not sin against thee" (Psalms 119:11) She would always say if you can't say nothing nice don't say anything at all. Which is one of the reasons why I believe her and my dad planted seeds of the word in my life. They knew they had a wild child on their hands who was going to be used for God's glory. Did I ever sin against God? Of course! Was it a blessing blocker? YES! This is why we must keep the word planted in our hearts to avoid a harvest of grief and sin. When we release the word it go's out and performs it work. (Isaiah55:11) We don't have to do it the world's way. The word says do not be conformed any longer to the patterned of this world, but be ye transformed by the renewing of your mind. (Romans12:2) I renew my mind daily not only for me but for you. God surely has a plan for man and his motives. He declares in his word. "For I know the plans for you". It's good and not evil. It's to prosper you in all the areas of your life. Plans to give you hope and a future. (Jeremiah 29:11) Yet as good as God's plan yet for man or for us women. Everything determines on our willingness to receive His plan and act on it in obedience. So  By his divine power, God has given us everything we need for living a godly life. We have receive all of this by coming to know him, the one who called us to himself by means of his marvelous glory and excellence.  And because of his glory and excellence, he has given us great and precious promises. These are the promises that enable you to share his divine nature and escape the world’s corruption caused by human desires. In view of all this, make every effort to respond to God’s promises. Supplement your faith with a generous provision of moral excellence, and moral excellence with knowledge,  and knowledge with self-control, and self-control with patient endurance, and patient endurance with godliness,  and godliness with brotherly affection, and brotherly affection with love for everyone. The more you grow like this, the more productive and useful you will be in your knowledge of our Lord Jesus Christ. But those who fail to develop in this way are shortsighted or blind, forgetting that they have been cleansed from their old sins. So, work hard to prove that you really are among those God has called and chosen. Do these things, and you will never fall away. Then God will give you a grand entrance into the eternal Kingdom of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. So much wisdom she would spoke. Then she ended with this..You can't afford to go backwards when God is constantly pulling you or shall I say calling you higher. Hmm..Thank you Lord. (Slience)

Father, We thank you! We come before you right now with our life. Oh Lord we trust and lean on and rely on you. Let us not be put to shame for our hope is in you. Let not our enemies rejections, hurt, unworthiness triumph over us. Father, for you said in your word "For you know the thoughts and plans for us. plans of peace, good and not evil. To give us hope and a future. You are not a God that lie. May we continue to walk in your word and your power. The instructions that you have given to us. We don't take it lightly. It is so in Jesus mighty name Amen!
