Today's Bible message comes to us from Romans 9-12....

I might...be prepared...to say to them...Lord will carry out...who pursued the law....if it were by works...[speaker telling us e is prepared to tell us the Lord will save those who follow the law through works]

As it is written...a stone that causes...shame...may be saved...[as it said a stone, {burden/sin}, that causes shame ma save us]

With your mouth...you profess...you will be saved...with your mouth....your are saved...then...how beautiful...they are....those who...share good news...[By sharing the good news then you are helped to be saved.  Share your faith boldly yet humbly, boasting only in the Lord as Paul told us]

Israel does not understand...I revealed myself...to an obstinate people...and what was GOD's answer.....bow the knee.....[He brought His people to their knees for their obstinacy, which is NOT a condemnation, for it is written they would be punished but then saved.  Sometimes GOD lowers us just so He can raise us up to show us His power and glory and as a testament to Him]

Grace would no longer...be among them...their table became a snare.......eyes darkened...means riches for Gentiles...[this meant His grace was then bestowed unto the Gentiles which helped it to spread across the world]

Their full inclusion...to the Gentiles...[their blessing, inclusion in the gift also given to the Gentiles]
Dough offered as firstfruits...is holy....[What is dough?  Unleavened bread, raw, offered as firstfruits and raised up to be holy]

Support the Root...by faith...[support the Root, the Christ, by faith, by believing]

Therefore...be grafted...and in this way...will come...away their sins...[be grafted, bonded into, and then your sins will be lifted]

As far as the Gospel is concerned...two...patriarchs...may now...cover disobedience......and knowledge of GOD...given...through Him...for from Him...are all things...[as far as the Gospel, 2 patriarchs, who they are not known exactly, are now able to cover disobedience to GOD and give knowledge of Him through Christ Jesus]

To Him be the glory...therefore I urge you....as a living sacrifice...conform to the pattern...by the renewing...then you will be able to...by the grace of perfect will...so be in Christ...[Glory to Him and being urged to conform to GOD's plan, the pattern of the universe, as a living sacrifice by renewing your faith, believing with all your strength, focusing on Him, prioritizing Him first.  Then you will be able to be in Christ by the grace of His perfect will and not your own imperfect will.]

Jesus is continually calling out to us, inviting us to come unto Him.  His love is unconditional, limitless, boundless just as the Father is limitless and boundless.  Stop and listen for it and you may be surprised you can hear it.....

I pray that out of His glorious riches He may strengthen you with power through His Spirit in your inner being, so that Christ may dwell in your hearts through faith.  And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, may have power, together with all the saints, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, and to know His love that surpasses knowledge----that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of GOD....Ephesians 3:16-19

When you are struggling and worn down with weariness, turn to Him and rest in His loving embrace.  When we are weak then we are strong from His strength.  Do not worry about others who seem to go along having no trouble.  Each of us has a different path and they may be a mess inside or in private or they may have gone through their troubles or have yet to.  He knows you struggle, give control over to Him, "Jesus I offer up all my troubles to you for I can no longer carry the burden.  Help me to get through this time.  Thank you Jesus!" 

A bruised reed He will not break, and a smoldering wick He will not snuff out.  In faithfulness He will bring forth justice...Isaiah 42:3

In the same way, the Spirit helps us in our weakness.  we do not know what we ought to pray for, but the Spirit himself intercedes for us with groans that words cannot express....Romans 8:26

GOD BLESS!  PRAISE JESUS CHRIST!  GOD IS AWESOME!
