Good Monday to all and GOD bless!  I pray all are well and for those in this country, recovered from the big game.  Hope you are staying warm where you are.  For those in the bitter cold, our thoughts are with you in our 70's weather for this week.

Am I the only one who noticed GOD's hand in the game yesterday?  Since the NFL refused to announce or punish the guilty,  it was left to the Lord.  He showed the guilt of the guilty side when the miracle catch was made by the Seahawks.  Example of the will of GOD.   The coach of the Seahawks then ignored the gift and chose his way and lost the gift.  Example of mankind's free will.  

First, nothing escapes the will of GOD, sorry Mr's Kraft, Bellicheck and Brady or whomever the guilty ones were.  Second, always accept the will of GOD and His precious gifts. Third, nothing is impossible with GOD.

Opened to Hosea today, one of the latter prophets.  Just a few things to share from the pages today.

My people are bent on turning away from Me; so they are appointed to the yoke, and none shall remove it...Hosea 11:7

The Lord the GOD of hosts, the Lord is his name:  "So you, by help of your GOD, return, hold fast to love and justice, and wait continually for your GOD."...Hosea 12:5-6

Ah, but I am rich, I have gained wealth for myself; but all his riches can never offset the guilt he has incurred...Hosea 12:8

I am the Lord your GOD from the land of Egypt; you know no GOD but Me, and besides Me there is no savior.  It was I who knew you in the wilderness, in the land of drought; but when they had fed to the full, they were filled, and their heart was lifted up; therefore they forgot Me.....Hosea 13:4-6

Look to the Lord and His strength; seek His face always.....Psalm 105:4

Your thoughts float freely and randomly, losing your focus on Me.  This allows problems to drift in and take hold, pulling your focus from Me.  Negativity sets in and drains your energy, losing sight of Me.  Train your mind to look for Me in every situation, every moment.  It takes time, so begin now, this moment.  You can find Me in all things, the birds singing, the sunset, the breeze, anything of My Father's creation.  Seek Me and you will find Me......

Do not conform any longer to the pattern of this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind.  Then you will be able to test and approve what GOD's will is----His good, pleasing and perfect will....Romans 12:2

Thomas 48:  His disciples said to Him:  "Who art thou, who tellest us these things?"  "By the things that I tell you, do you not recognize who I am?  But you yourselves have become like the Jews:  they like the tree and detest the fruit, they like the fruit and detest the tree!"

Thomas 49:  Jesus says:  "He who has blasphemed the Father will be forgiven, and he who has blasphemed the Son will be forgiven:  but he who has blasphemed the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven either on earth or in Heaven."

Thomas 50:  Jesus says:  "Grapes are not gathered from thistles, and figs are not gathered from thorns:  they do not give fruit!  A good man brings out of is barn what is good, but a wicked man brings out of his wicked barn---which is in his heart--evil things, and from them he sows evil, because they are evil, he brings out the abundance of his heart."

GOD Bless!
