OCP Blog Challenge - August 12th

Let's do the bible passage that speaks to you the most right now and why.

Right now, the bible passage that speaks to me the most has to be Psalm 23:

The LORD is my shepherd, I shall not be in want.
He makes me lie down in green pastures,
he leads me beside quiet waters,

he restores my soul.
He guides me in paths of righteousness
for his name's sake.

Even 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.

You prepare a table before me
in the presence of my enemies.
You anoint my head with oil;
my cup overflows.

Surely goodness and love will follow me
all the days of my life,
and I will dwell in the house of the LORD
forever.

It speaks to me right now because it was my father-in-law's favorite verse, and he's gone to be with Jesus in Heaven and I can't wait to join him there (hopefully not for a LONG time yet).

I hope you enjoyed reading, until next time.

God Bless You,

Dear God

I am very late on this one, as it was mentioned back at the beginning of this month. I am doing it now though :)

Dear God,
I'm sorry I haven't been very loyal lately, but I'm trying to change that. We have decided to stay at our current church, everyone has been SO supportive all these years and I just can't us leaving now. Also, Justin's dad always wanted us to stay at MFC so we are going to do that for him as well. I want to give every day my VERY best and live each day like it's my last, so that I can meet you up in Heaven, and see Justin's dad again too. I need your help in this, and I KNOW you will be there for me to see me through. I thank you for everything you've given me and will give me in the future. Please take care of Justin's mom and help her to realize she NEEDS to be here for her family and she has to take care of herself in order to do that. In your name, Amen.

I hope you enjoyed reading, until next time.

God Bless You,
Jackie
