It's a tad late to wish a Happy New Year but I sure hope that it's kicked off good for everyone. Ours kicked off with being so THANKFUL for what God has done and is doing. As I told my family as we were reminiscing over 2024, "There is a lot of 2024 I DO NOT WANT A RE-DO but the Lord has surely taught me so very much. I am truly thankful for each breath, each day, family and close friends. We had our three youngest grands for New Years Eve. We had a great time and the girls enjoyed a little fishing, bonfire with their great-grandfather and roasting marshmallows. Their great-grandfather will be 90 years old next month. As most of you know I do a monthly focus board and this makes my 3rd or 4th year. I've lost count. Only fitting that New Beginnings would be my focus for January. This has been so good for me as it sits on my kitchen counter so I can see it daily. Wonderful way to focus and quote God's Word daily. I felt up to hosting a lunch and movie day with ...
The Bible says that one day we will all stand before the Lord and every knee shall bow.......Romans 14:11 says; .Is written: "'As surely as I live,' says the Lord, 'every knee will bow before me; every tongue will acknowledge God.". (NIV)
We ALL will bow regardless of whether one knows Him personally or not! He is the King of Kings!
Matthew 7:21-23 says, "Not everyone who says to Me, ‘Lord, Lord,’ shall enter the kingdom of heaven, but he who does the will of My Father in heaven. Many will say to Me in that day, ‘Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in Your name, cast out demons in Your name, and done many wonders in Your name?’ And then I will declare to them, ‘I never knew you; depart from Me, you who practice lawlessness!’(NKV)
Oh I pray that that those that do not know Christ will HEAR His voice. Time on this earth is but a vapor. Here today and gone tomorrow.
James 4:14 (NASB) says, "Yet you do not know what your life will be like tomorrow. You are just a vapor that appears for a little while and then vanishes away".
May you know the King of Kings and the Lord of Lords. He loves us so!

Love the picture. Those verses in Matthew 7...they hurt my heart for those who just pretend to know Him...or "play church". Very scary way to live!
