June 7

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
God loves you. He can never love you less.
He can never love you more. He just loves
you, that's it: He loves you. You do not need
to dress up or make up... just be yourself.
(Sally Kennedy-From Christian Voices)

SCRIPTURE:
God is Love. 1 John 4:16

Isn't it sad that we think being ourself is not
good enough and try to win God's love...
folks it's already there!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

June 6

Greetings: God bless you this day!
Welcome to the first workday of the week.
Don't leave Jesus in yesterday's pew... take
him into the workplace or school. My poem
"What would Jesus Do?" fits very nicely with
today's thought.

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Doing something wrong can get a grip on you,
in more ways than one. You can experience guilt
because of it. Relationships crumble under the
strain of it. There is a solution to this problem.
Deliverance comes by believing in Jesus Christ
as your Savior. He sets you free to live for Him.
(Vantage Point Devotional)

SCRIPTURE:
And having been set free from sin I have (now)
become a slave of righteousness. Romans 6:18

And then... there's God's mercy... I'm depending on it!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

June 5

Greetings: God bless you this Lord's Day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
Good friends are like stars. You don't always see
them, but you always know they're there.
(Maxine-From Phyllis Leonard)

SCRIPTURE:
Two are better than one. If one falls down, his friend
can help him up. Ecclesiastes 4:9-10

The very best kind of friend, is one you may not see often,
but when you do, it is as if you were never apart!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

June 4

Greetings: God bless you this day!
Today's thought corresponds somewhat with today's
Poem, "Trust." http://fredasgardenofpoetry.blogspot.com

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
How often have you sung about Victory or heard
people talk about the Victorious Christian life and
felt utterly defeated inside? If you're like most
Christians, that's happened more often than you'd
like to admit. Even the greatest saints in church
history, have gone through times when they felt far
from triumphant. But we can emerge stronger in our
faith if we never cease seeking God.
(The Pocket Devotional)

SCRIPTURE:
No, in all these things we are more than conquerors
through him who loved us. Romans 8:37

We need to remember:
We serve God more with our will than our emotions.
Our emotions are very susceptible to our environment.
That does not make us a (cold-law-keeping christian)
but God has not left us, if we do not feel on top of the
world every day!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

June 3

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
If our earthly families are not the most stable and
strong, we can be encouraged to know our heavenly
family is one in the Lord. I take comfort in knowing
I have a great family in the body of Christ.
(Daily Disciples Devotional)

SCRIPTURE:
For this reason I bow my knees to the Father of our
Lord Jesus Christ, from whom the whole family in
heaven and earth is named. Ephesians 3:14-15

If you do not know the comfort and joy of being part
of a church family, I urge you to find one!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

June 2

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
All people smile in the same language.
(Author Unknown-From Mary Scroggins)

SCRIPTURE:
If I say I will forget my complaint, I will change
my expression and smile. Job 9:27

Kindness has no foreign tongue!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda

Greetings: God bless you this day!

THOUGHT FOR TODAY:
When anxious thoughts come your way send them
on to God. (The Pocket Devotional)

SCRIPTURE:
Cast your cares on God for he will sustain you.
Psalm 55:22

And if those anxious thoughts come back to you,
send them out again and again until they fly to
the very throne of God!

Know I prayed for you today. Blessings-Freda
