We can be strong in the Lord and the power of his might! God has given us all the resources that we need to be victorious in life. Here is a poem about Ephesians 6:10-18.

Six Doctors
With the new year comes health resolutions for many. Six faithful “standbys” for good health are: fresh air, clean water, sunlight, proper rest, exercise, and good food. Here’s a little poem about them.
Let’s continue in prayer
With all of our heart.
Speaking in tongues—
Always a fresh start.

Do the Best that You Can
When others are watching and you’re on the spot,
Where everyone’s into comparing,
Just give it your all—don’t concern with what’s not,
Do the best that you can, that takes daring!
As God’s Messiah, Jesus Christ was longed for since the time of Adam. He is the subject of God’s Word, even though he is not specifically named in every book of the Bible. Our savior knew that the scriptures spoke of him, and that he could declare, make known the Father (John 1:18).

Love and Respect
Ephesians 5:22,25,33:
Wives, submit yourselves unto your own husbands, as unto the Lord.
Husbands, love your wives, even as Christ also loved the church, and gave himself for it.
Nevertheless let every one of you in particular so love his wife even as himself; and the wife see that she reverence [respect] her husband.

The Bees in the Rosemary
I went for a walk this morning up a beautifully paved street. I crossed avenues named “Dauntless” and “Exultant” and “Stalwart.” It reminded me of the “ways” that we can walk in when we listen to our heavenly Father—by reading His Word with meekness and using the spiritual connection He gave us through His Son, Jesus Christ.

Every Day Is a Holiday!
Originally, God set up special days to recognize His goodness to His people. Yet, God has always wanted every day to be a holy day, set apart for Him. That is where we get the modern word “holi-day,” meaning a holy day. The word “holy” in the Bible means to be set apart for another. We are set apart to love and worship our heavenly Father every day! Every day is a holiday.
In Part 1, we saw that our eyes are to be flooded with God’s spiritual light, just as a mighty laser can focus photons into a brilliant stream of power and energy. We also learned that humility opens our eyes to see what the Father has for us to learn. And we saw how to keep His light in our hearts.
My father-in-law has worked with lasers for most of his adult life. He received his PhD in Physics from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign in 1960.
