ALL of us have failed, it says in the Bible, by trying to find our own way, yet that is not the end of the story for anyone who finds the right way. Coming to the reality, that we are not good enough, is the first, step, in finding freedom. God sent his son, Jesus, who was fully God, and fully Man, to help us get to the place we all want to be.

Psalm 100 – A Psalm of Thanksgiving & Gratitude
As we approach this beautiful season we call Autumn of Fall, may we approach this changing of the season, with a heart ❤️ of Joy and Thanksgiving, (In spite of our circumstances). Every day is a gift from God, whether you know it or not. Take the time, to remember, all the things that God has blessed you with, and not the circumstance you find yourself in. Whether you know God or not, take the time in a quiet place and seek him out. Ask him to reveal himself to you in a personal way. He love us, in spite of ourselves. He care so much, that HE created us in his own image. He gave his only son, to take our place before him, that we might stand before him, without blemish. Is that not reason to rejoice, I ask you. If you can take the time, in your stillness, take a moment and listen to the song below of Gratitude, by Brandon Lake, but more importantly, reflect on his Word, from the Psalm 100. I this will be a blessing it is for you, as much as it is to me.
Thanks for your time.

If we confess our sins, he is faithful and just, to forgive us our sins, and deliver us from ALL unrighteousness.
Seek and ye shall find, ask and ye shall receive.
One of the Greatest blessings I ever had at Cornerstone Community Church in Simi Valley, CA, was to be asked to come as Elder, to pray for one who was physically or spiritually sick as a group. We took it seriously, to come and confess our sins, one to another as we lifted this person up in prayer before the Lord. There was no greater pleasure for me, to come before someone, as overseer, than lifting and walking with this person, before the Lord.
“Is anyone among you suffering? Then he must pray. Is anyone cheerful? He is to sing praises. Is anyone among you sick? Then he must call for the elders of the church and they are to pray over him, anointing him with oil in the name of the Lord; and the prayer offered in faith will restore the one who is sick, and the Lord will raise him up, and if he has committed sins, they will be forgiven him. Therefore, confess your sins to one another, and pray for one another so that you may be healed. The effective prayer of a righteous man can accomplish much. Elijah was a man with a nature like ours, and he prayed earnestly that it would not rain, and it did not rain on the earth for three years and six months. Then he prayed again, and the sky poured rain and the earth produced its fruit.”
James 5:13-18 NASB1995
Light Overcomes the Darkness!
Mariano Rivera and the 2091 World Series and his favorite verse. “I know what it is to be in need, and I know what it is to have plenty. I have learned the secret of being content in any and every situation, whether well fed or hungry, whether living in plenty or in want.” (Philippians 4:12)
