HEALING

Good news from the Eye Specialist, everything is clear. Sight has returned to normal after a hemorrhage in the right eye in November. Now just a check in 3 months, for any changes.


Exodus 15:26 (Message)
That's the place where God set up rules and procedures; that's where he started testing them.
God said, "If you listen, listen obediently to how God tells you to live in his presence, obeying his commandments and keeping all his laws, then I won't strike you with all the diseases that I inflicted on the Egyptians; I am God your healer."

Life's Word

“He has told you, O man, what is good, and what the Lord requires of you: Only to do justice and to love goodness, and to walk modestly with your God; then will your name achieve wisdom.”
Micah 6:8 (Tanakh Translation)


The Tanakh Translation is a Christmas gift, so I thought that I would quote my Life/Ministry verse from that translation.

Preach the Word

2 Tim. 4:1-5 (Message)
I can't impress this on you too strongly. God is looking over your shoulder. Christ himself is the Judge, with the final say on everyone, living and dead. He is about to break into the open with his rule, so proclaim the Message with intensity; keep on your watch. Challenge, warn, and urge your people. Don't ever quit. Just keep it simple. You're going to find that there will be times when people will have no stomach for solid teaching, but will fill up on spiritual junk food—catchy opinions that tickle their fancy. They'll turn their backs on truth and chase mirages. But you—keep your eye on what you're doing; accept the hard times along with the good; keep the Message alive; do a thorough job as God's servant.
