Quote:

"Genuine repentance has to be granted by God to a heart that is truly sorry toward God...that is godly sorrow works repentance not to be repented of.

I’ve seen to often how the flesh will feign a change from seemingly to be sorry but when things get better it goes right back to it’s self centered way."

Good to hear someone else affirm what I have seen.

Thank-you so much for sharing your insights on this issue. I rarely talk about it because when I do all I get are blank looks and so feel no urgency to explain further because they can't fix it either.

God still made the birds and the flowers beautiful and I can revel in that beauty because God is a wonderful creator. Just awesome. And He loves me still!

You know what God does? He allows me to experience vexing things in everyday living and then intervenes on my behalf! Like finding misplaced keys that ended up a ways beside the road....! Then I wonder why do I allow unrepentant persons to distract me from God?

God bless.

Sandra

I want to praise God for His son, Jesus Christ, and for the Holy Ghost. I want to praise Him for a sound mind. The Scripture says we can be overcomers by the blood of the lamb and the words of our testimony and by not loving our lives. Unto death. I thank God that He had made His people victorious. I thank Him for the Word of God, which is unchanging. When a problem arises in my life I can go to the Word of God for a solution and 20 years from now(Lord willing) when I have another need or trial I am facing I can go to the same Word and it will have the same answer. People will change, seasons will change, but God and His Word will not and for this I praise Him.

It is totally amazing what praise will to to the giver and the recipient! I suspect the devil does not appreciate it at all when it is directed towards God and his saints.

Enter His gates with thanksgiving
And His courts with praise.
Give thanks to Him, bless His name.

His lovingkindness is everlasting
And His faithfulness to all generations.

Sanctuary
Chris Rodriguez

Seems I left the innocence of Eden long ago
Tempted by my heart to go it on my own
Beyond the garden, somehow through the desert
Of my wanderings alone, You have never let me go

I turn from You and still You cover me
I fall so far, You find me in the deep
Anywhere I am, anywhere I am
You sanctuary me

I have felt the separation deep within my bones
Brought me to my knees, crying out for hope
Beyond the garden, somehow through my tears
You heard the words I could not speak, You were there to rescue me

I turn from You and still You cover me
I fall so far, You find me in the deep
I lose my way, You're reaching out to me
Anywhere I am, anywhere I am, You sanctuary me

I turn from You and still You cover me
I fall so far, You find me in the deep
I lose my way, You're reaching out to me
Anywhere I am, anywhere I am, You sanctuary me

Psalm 148

1 Praise ye the Lord. Praise ye the Lord from the heavens: praise him in the heights.

2 Praise ye him, all his angels: praise ye him, all his hosts.

3 Praise ye him, sun and moon: praise him, all ye stars of light.

4 Praise him, ye heavens of heavens, and ye waters that be above the heavens.

5 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for he commanded, and they were created.

6 He hath also stablished them for ever and ever: he hath made a decree which shall not pass.

7 Praise the Lord from the earth, ye dragons, and all deeps:

8 Fire, and hail; snow, and vapours; stormy wind fulfilling his word:

9 Mountains, and all hills; fruitful trees, and all cedars:

10 Beasts, and all cattle; creeping things, and flying fowl:

11 Kings of the earth, and all people; princes, and all judges of the earth:

12 Both young men, and maidens; old men, and children:

13 Let them praise the name of the Lord: for his name alone is excellent; his glory is above the earth and heaven.

14 He also exalteth the horn of his people, the praise of all his saints; even of the children of Israel, a people near unto him.

Praise ye the Lord.
