May we show Grace, this season, as as one who has received much Grace. Lord help us see through your eyes, to see how much Grace, we have received, that we might give freely to others. May your Spirit fill us with the same Love, that we have received.
May God, continue to bless this great country, in spite of all of our differences!
Our Strength and Power, comes from the Lord!
Each day is a Gift. Let us not grow weary, as we serve him together. Father, forgive us, when we get caught up on the things that do not matter, eternally.

The Human Condition you Can’t Escape(No Matter Where you Live)
Jethro’s Wise Counsel to Moses
How often are we running around, trying to do everything ourselves, whether in our ministry, business, or our job. We were not meant to build something, that God had called to, without the help of others. Take a breath, seek God’s wisdom(James 1), look for people you can trust, and will give you wise counsel, to accomplish the goals set before you. Listen to the counsel from Mose’s father-in-law from Exodus 18 and a verse from Ecclesiastics.
Ecclesiastics 4:9-10
9 Two are better than one,
because they have a good return for their labor:
10 If either of them falls down,
one can help the other up.
But pity anyone who falls
and has no one to help them up.
Exodus 18: 13-26
“The next day, Moses took his seat to hear the people’s disputes against each other. They waited before him from morning till evening. When Moses’ father-in-law saw all that Moses was doing for the people, he asked, “What are you really accomplishing here? Why are you trying to do all this alone while everyone stands around you from morning till evening?” Moses replied, “Because the people come to me to get a ruling from God. When a dispute arises, they come to me, and I am the one who settles the case between the quarreling parties. I inform the people of God’s decrees and give them his instructions.” “This is not good!” Moses’ father-in-law exclaimed. “You’re going to wear yourself out—and the people, too. This job is too heavy a burden for you to handle all by yourself. Now listen to me, and let me give you a word of advice, and may God be with you. You should continue to be the people’s representative before God, bringing their disputes to him. Teach them God’s decrees, and give them his instructions. Show them how to conduct their lives. But select from all the people some capable, honest men who fear God and hate bribes. Appoint them as leaders over groups of one thousand, one hundred, fifty, and ten. They should always be available to solve the people’s common disputes, but have them bring the major cases to you. Let the leaders decide the smaller matters themselves. They will help you carry the load, making the task easier for you. If you follow this advice, and if God commands you to do so, then you will be able to endure the pressures, and all these people will go home in peace.” Moses listened to his father-in-law’s advice and followed his suggestions. He chose capable men from all over Israel and appointed them as leaders over the people. He put them in charge of groups of one thousand, one hundred, fifty, and ten. These men were always available to solve the people’s common disputes. They brought the major cases to Moses, but they took care of the smaller matters themselves. Soon after this, Moses said good-bye to his father-in-law, who returned to his own land.”
