As a new day begins, Jamie is watching PBS cartoons and I am wondering about the Tigers and the Cardinals in the World Series and then there is the concern for teenagers and the difficulty in communicating with them. I just hope that God's grace and His plan, with deliverance will be enough to enable us to overcome these challenges and struggles. This mornings verse for meditation is an important one..."Since you have heard all about Him and have learned the truth that is in Jesus, throw off your old evil nature and your former way of life, which is rotten through and through, full of lust and deception. Instead, there must be a spiritual renewal of your thoughts and attitudes. You must display a new nature because you are a new person, created in God's likeness--righteous, holy and true." Ephesians 4:21-24 New Living Translation

There certainly are reasons for hope and faith and staying the course in love, but overcoming this sinful nature and "sweeping the room clean" so that 7 far worse do not ... maybe there are explanations. All unpleasant to explore, deliver me from evil... Father, help me i pray.

Jesus gave His life, shed His blood, died and rose again so that sin may be forgiven. That is the Truth and the Power and the glory to God the Father...my only hope for redemption. Debts, sins and tresspasses...covered by the blood of Christ.
