Bible Study

good morning from my neck of the woods.         it looks like it might be a great day today.          I thought yesterday was gonna be a fine day, but it got all dark and dreary and rained some and we were under a tornado warning, so welcome to spring.          but regardless of what it looks like on the outside, the Son still shines on the inside.        woohoo!!!         so today will be a great day too.        I have a lot to do this week and I look forward to doing it.         one thing on my agenda is to get some yellow potato and sweet potato bites made for the freezer.         I'm telling you, we go thru those things like nobody's business.          they are so good.        I wish I could come up more veggies that I could do that way to have a variety.        the other day, just on a whim, I took a can of cut green beans and drained them and then rinsed them and let them dry a little.        I put them in a zip lock sandwich bag and sprayed some avocado oil on them then sprinkled some greek seasoning and onion powder on them.        sealed the bag and worked them around in the zip lock bag till everything was evenly coated and then dumped them in one half of my 8 quart air fryer.        I put some of my sweet potato bites and hubby's yellow potato bites along with 2 apple chicken sausages laying between the green beans and and the potatoes.        set the air fryer for 400 degrees for 15 minutes and I'm telling you, those green beans were fantastic!!!         so I know I'll be growing as many green beans as possible this year.         I take the whole ones that I grow and do the same thing and air fry them too.       it's wonderful and I suggest you give them a try.        you can season them any way you like, of course.         I just love being able to fix a whole meal in the air fryer at one time.        what are some things that you like to air fry?

I found this and thought it was beautiful and I wanted to share it with us all.         May we find ourselves in one of these and claim it over our day!!!

What do you tell yourself every morning as you start the day?

-----------------------------
today we start in Jeremiah chapter 1,         never forget, that there is someone who knows you better than you know yourself.         your Creator!!!         He knew us even before He formed us.          He designed what our lives would be even before we were born.        when we follow God, He is with us and nothing can prevail against us!!!         God will save us!!
Jeremiah 2,          this chapter shows us God's unfailing, unwavering love for His people!!!         it also shows our ungratefulness for His ever presence in our lives.          how easy it is for us to trust the world and not trust God, when He is faithful to us.           we need to remain faithful to God and repent and keep our relationship with God strong.        God is with us, He is for us and He is forgiving.        yet, we keep on forgetting Him and His ways.        God continues to deliver us from sin but we still turn away from Him.
Jeremiah 3,          here we see that, unlike the world, God does NOT abandon us.         He waits for us to turn around and head back to Him, then He comes running to us.        despite unfaithfulness, God wants us to repent and come back to Him.     in this chapter we see forgiveness, restoration and hope.        these are only found in God, thru the shed blood of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.
Jeremiah 4,         what areas of your life do you give to God that is in need of forgiveness and restoration?        this question is where the rubber meets the road and it's very humbling.       there is consequences for sin, but mercy and grace of God will take care of it when we repent.       and once we repent and get back in relationship with God, then we pray for others for to repent also.
Jeremiah 5,          Jeremiah couldn't find a single righteous person in Jerusalem!!!         how many righteous persons can be found our churches this morning all across this globe?          I dare say, not many.         it's always the religious folks that don't know God.         it's always been the religious folks that don't God because they are all about the man made rituals and not about the commandments that God, Himself gave to man.        we think we know better than God.         we don't!!          I keep saying for us to keep seeking after the heart of God and this is why.        if we are not actively and purposefully  seeking after the heart of we'll never get close to Him.        God's judgement will happen, but He keeps giving us day after day, for a while at least, to know His heart and do His will.
next time we will pick up with Chapter 6.
------------------------------
well, I guess we'll leave it right here for the time being.          I pray that we all have a wonderful day today and that we get a lot done.         I hope that we remember to keep seeking after the heart of God in all we do.        we'll never fail or go wrong when we are actively seeking God.      blessings of hope and restoration be ours today.
hugs and love, patty
