<22> He who finds a wife finds a good thing, and obtains favor from the Lord. ```
Thinking this morning about works and the book of James, which I've always had trouble reconciling with the grace I see in the bulk of the other scriptures. I think what the Lord is trying to point out here, at least in part, can be summed up in the word 'attitude'. Attitude can be described as the place where 'motive' and 'objective' intersect. (more on this as I ruminate) Feel free to add your comments.
Simply put works are a natural product of faith. Look at the parable of the talents. Faith is a gift that is never earned though.
As I sat in a hospital room this past week, I was surprised to be visited by two acquaintances of mine, at separate times. The reason I was surprised is that both fellows are liberal Democrats. Neither of them are particularly religious or spiritual and yet they were doing the works
Devin Nunes & the team are now requiring the deep state cabal Schiff & his crew to testify in a hearing.

Psalms 29
Psalm 29:1-11 KJV
**Psalm 29 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<1> Give unto the Lord, O ye mighty, give unto the Lord glory and strength. <2> Give unto the Lord the glory due unto his name; worship the Lord in the beauty of holiness. <3> The voice of the Lord is upon the waters: the God of glory thundereth: the Lord is upon many waters. <4> The voice of the Lord is powerful; the voice of the Lord is full of majesty. <5> The voice of the Lord breaketh the cedars; yea, the Lord breaketh the cedars of Lebanon. <6> He maketh them also to skip like a calf; Lebanon and Sirion like a young unicorn. <7> The voice of the Lord divideth the flames of fire. <8> The voice of the Lord shaketh the wilderness; the Lord shaketh the wilderness of Kadesh. <9> The voice of the Lord maketh the hinds to calve, and discovereth the forests: and in his temple doth every one speak of his glory. <10> The Lord sitteth upon the flood; yea, the Lord sitteth King for ever. <11> The Lord will give strength unto his people; the Lord will bless his people with peace. ```
Thank you to the patriots who pray for the lies to be exposed. If there is a 'winning' folder, please include yesterday's Breaking News announcement that the CDC has finally spilled forth the truth that it is the Black Market thc-oil carts that are killing our loved ones, not the legitimate nicotine ecigs. Praise the Lord!
Please pray that today's DC Rally against tyranny goes smooth and without mishap.
Mathew 15:10-11
**Matthew 15:10-11 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**
```Dust
Things That Defile
<10> Then he called the crowd to him and said to them, "Listen and understand: <11> it is not what goes into the mouth that defiles a person, but it is what comes out of the mouth that defiles." ```

**Matthew 15:16-20 - King James Version (KJV)**
```Dust
<16> And Jesus said, Are ye also yet without understanding? <17> Do not ye yet understand, that whatsoever entereth in at the mouth goeth into the belly, and is cast out into the draught? <18> But those things which proceed out of the mouth come forth from the heart; and they defile the man. <19> For out of the heart proceed evil thoughts, murders, adulteries, fornications, thefts, false witness, blasphemies: <20> These are the things which defile a man: but to eat with unwashen hands defileth not a man. ```
Please note; I'm not saying that there are not things that people consume that can make y sick and even kill you. Just saying if your heart is right God is greater than these things.
@Shadetree49 , smoking is tar and smoke that kills the living cells. Nicotine vapes remove the smoke and tar, and help the smokers to quit smoking while mimicking the habitual act. This buys them time to catch a mustard seed. God works in mysterious ways.
The YMCA M.A.G.A. Parody song/video is so inspiring to those who pray for the souls of all God's children. It makes me smile to know that some day, that everyone will be willingly and knowingly happy to be held accountable for their evil ways that they turned away from. Hallelujah! Throw those mustard seeds peeps so that the 'servers' serve the one and only true God. Let's getter done. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_OAqkt6MFgQ

<22> A cheerful heart is a good medicine, but a downcast spirit dries up the bones. ```
Amazing how that random bot put the cherry on top of that video.
There are no coincidences. Q
Please pray for my endurance. I have much yet to do before winter. Since back surgery and now a fractured pelvis I have been extremely slowed down (and the pain is no fun either). As I live alone there is no one to lay some of these tasks on.
@Shadetree49 , Dear Heavenly Father, I ask for your love to cover ShadeTree42 with your healing powers and to send along the needed helpful hands. I know you ask us to ask you for your help and then trust you that you are answering. I place my trust in you fully as you lift ShadeTree49 out of the pits of misery. Thank you Dear Heavenly Father for listening to my prayers, in Jesus precious name, Amen.

@Shadetree49 , reach out to Caleb55 for prayer in DM, too. He's an extra special child of God who can really pray up a miracle if anybody can. Consider yourself on the path to recovery. God bless you.
Potus Trump is a Cyrus appointed by God.

@Uma-Rae I was at Thumpers house when Caleb was having his encounter with the bees . I believe he is a Godly man. From your posts I believe you are also a Child of God. You have prayed. I am believing. God bless you.
@ShyPanther I pray, and it certainly seems to be the case, that God is guiding President Trump. There is a line, however, between praising God for what He is doing trough the flesh of a man and building up a worship of that man. It is the same dilemma facing any church who, seeing God work through their pastor, put him on a pedestal. God will share His glory with no man.
You may actually cause that man to fail by lifting him up.
I Support our President Trump but he is far from perfect and neither was Cyrus
He is just a flawed Man used by God as I hope to be one Day

**Psalm 44:3 - New Revised Standard Version (NRSV)**
```Dust
<3> for not by their own sword did they win the land, nor did their own arm give them victory; but your right hand, and your arm, and the light of your countenance, for you delighted in them. ```
My prayer for my Nation. Oh God, you have in your word, asked me to test you, and you have proven yourself faithful, in my life. Your stead fast love has followed me, even in the hour of profound, personal loses. Each trial, set before me, has tested me, and with your grace and love, I have grown stronger. My nation is in desperate need of your direct intervention, that many would see your hand, and come to trust in you. Many seek my nation’s destruction. I humbly pray, despite my many flaws and failings, your undeserved mercy, for my nation. That those that lay traps for my nation fall to the very, devices they themselves set to entrap others. If in your wisdom you ask of my last full measure, then I offer it freely and fully, that my children and their children and nation might endure in your care oh my God and King, eternal. In Jesus name.
