“Give us this day our daily bread” Matthew 6:11
“Do not worry about tomorrow; for tomorrow will worry about its own things. Sufficient for the day is its own trouble.” Matthew 6:34 NKJV
Now same verse from the message:
“Give your entire attention to what God is doing right now and don’t get worked up about what may or may not happen tomorrow. God will help you deal with whatever hard things come up when the times comes.”
“Exhort one another DAILY, while it is called “Today,” lest any of you be hardened through the deceitfulness of sin. Hebrews 3:13
We all have watched and heard the unfolding of the tragedy that has taken place at Virginia Tech. We are watching daily the loss of lives that happen almost daily in Iraq on behalf of our Nation and other Nations. Our communities are losing young men and women both in war zones and at home. Hebrews 3:15 says, “Today, please listen, don’t turn a deaf ear…”
Study with Sara-A Beautiful Leopard
Passage Jeremiah 13:23 Ampl.
“Can the Ethiopian change his skin or the leopard his spots? Then also can you do good who are accustomed and taught [even trained] to do evil.”
Do you think that we have practiced an evil for so long that it is impossible to do good?
Do you think rebellion or stubbornness is just so enjoyable and fulfilling that we do not want to do good?
Do you think we may have practiced telling lies for so long that it just comes so easy for us that we have no conscious thoughts of truth, or even a desire to tell truth? Rev. 22:13-17…”outside the gates will be whosoever loves and practices a lie.”
What about other habitual habits we have practiced and have no desire to give up? We justify them no matter what?

Biographer: Einstein Struggled with God
Voices: Walter Isaacson Says Physicist’s Religious Beliefs Informed His View of Science
April 8, 2007 — – Walter Isaacson, the biographer of Ben Franklin and Henry Kissinger, is tackling Albert Einstein in his new book, “Einstein: His Life and Universe.” According Isaacson, Einstein, arguably the greatest scientist of the 20th century, struggled with God.
Isaacson: You know, he was at a dinner party once in Berlin and everybody assumed he was an atheist and he said, “No. I have a deep feeling of faith, a deep religiosity that comes from my appreciation of the way the Lord made the universe,” and everybody was stunned.

2 Corinthians 10:6 “… being ready to punish all disobedience when your obedience is filled.”
The Apostle Paul is quite bold in speaking to the church in this chapter. And, out of the boldness of his pen comes this charge to the Body of Christ. Now, that you know, understand and practice OBEDIENCE, from here on declare war on DISOBEDIENCE!
I am so looking forward to your bold pen helping us to understand and have the knowledge on how to do this. How to punish all DISOBEDIENCE! How to Win The War on this order.
I am listing of few of my thought questions as I journey with each of you for answers.
Essay…from my Journal of pain
It all started on a cold winter day;
as I sat together with my church family in a restaurant planning a spiritual retreat. All at the table were involved to some degree; or so it seem to me. I had started to believe that heaven was pleased, but maybe it was just me!
I started the plans laying out an agenda for a Spring Retreat to the beach; with way too much glee, or so it seems.

In the suburbs of New Orleans on the Northshore sat a newly constructed two-story middle school. In its newness, it out shone the schools around it. It was one of the first two story schools constructed in the area and had a modern look at the time of a glass front entrance and to the left side of the entrance glass sections that protruded outwards in a convex fashion running up the height of the building. One could stand in the library on the second floor and survey the parking lot. Although no one usually did, unless, of course, they were waiting on their parents to check them out and they just so happened to be in the library.

Hosanna in the Highest (Matthew 21:9)
Then the multitudes who went before and those who followed cried out, saying:“ Hosanna to the Son of David! Blessed is He who comes in the name of the Lord! Hosanna in the highest!”
1)What does the word Hosanna mean is this scripture?
2)Why Hosanna to the Son of David?
3)Why do we use this scripture in the Christian church to celebrate Palm Sunday? Why do we call it Palm Sunday?
