Our hearts.
As believers, we must read and study the WORD thoroughly day and night. Yes, we should listen as well as listen to people preach to us about the WORD, as well as spread it ourselves. But, we should know the WORD so that we are not so easily lead in evil way. HIS WORD has all truth. If you listen to only parts, then you will only hear and know the parts that someone wants you to hear and know. Do your best to read all, believe, and you will definitely receive. Love all people!! Do good from the heart or your true intention will eventually be shown; GOD will make sure of that! Be ready to give to others as much as you would like to be given. This doesn't mean be poor ( because you're already rich in spirit), but this means to not have fear to give away what you have ( which has been given by GOD). GOD will give it back if you truly need it. I'm definitely a witness to this. Many dont realize the power of GOD on and around them. Many think they do things on their own. Do some of us remember kids back in school who were smart and did not get so far. Teachers that might have stopped their grades, stopped their progress, and even their growth. Even at jobs, there are bosses that give people chances that dont even have the requirements for the job. Whether we realize it or not, we do nothing on our own. We always have help from some where and from other people. But, GOD puts this in others' hearts so that we all can live together on this earth. Those that go against the LORD, even they help each other. LOL!! Believers, that means, we should be doing the same. At least that. GOD has to trust us with little before HE gives us much more. HE knows the heart, so HE knows what we would really do with worldly riches. HE wants none of us without, but if HE knows it will harm us and others, then HE won't give it to us; or HE will take it away from us. Test your hearts before we ask why or why not question to GOD. Just speaking to the righteous, believers, and those trying to do good in this life in Jesus holy name.
Love to all!! Be loving, patient, and kind.
Please pray the LORDS PRAYER and please read:
3 JOHN 5:-12 5 My dear friend, you have done loyal work in helping these brothers, even though they were strangers to you. 6 They are a proof to the whole Church of your love and it would be a kindness if you could help them on their journey as God would approve. 7 It was entirely for the sake of the name that they set out, without depending on the non-believers for anything: 8 it is our duty to welcome people of this sort and contribute our share to their work for the truth. 9 I have written a note for the members of the church, but Diotrephes, who enjoys being in charge of it, refuses to accept us. 10 So if I come, I shall tell everyone how he has behaved, and about the wicked accusations he has been circulating against us. As if that were not enough, he not only refuses to welcome our brothers, but prevents from doing so other people who would have liked to, and expels them from the church. 11 My dear friend, never follow a bad example, but keep following the good one; whoever does what is right is from God, but no one who does what is wrong has ever seen God. 12 Demetrius has been approved by everyone, and indeed by Truth itself. We too will vouch for him and you know that our testimony is true.
MATTHEW 5:43-48 43 'You have heard how it was said, You will love your neighbour and hate your enemy. 44 But I say this to you, love your enemies and pray for those who persecute you; 45 so that you may be children of your Father in heaven, for he causes his sun to rise on the bad as well as the good, and sends down rain to fall on the upright and the wicked alike. 46 For if you love those who love you, what reward will you get? Do not even the tax collectors do as much? 47 And if you save your greetings for your brothers, are you doing anything exceptional? 48 Do not even the gentiles do as much? You must therefore be perfect, just as your heavenly Father is perfect.'
Praise JESUS

This should read a bit better. Some corrections. Computer is slow this morning!! LOL! But, it’s made by humans. Humans are not perfect, nor are their machines. LOL!! But we keep trying!! Excuse any type 0s, run-ons, and other grammar mistakes that I missed or just did not pay attention to ( for those that look at that more than the message!! ;). LOL!!AMEN!!
TO ALL,
GOD BLESS US ALL!!

Thank you J4L.
I am upset about the Paul Ryan endorsement of Rick this morning. and this helps me to deal with my fear.
Since God knows all, why ask? Doesn’t God know what will be in our hearts even before we are even born?
John 3:17
For God did not send the Son into the world to judge the world, but that the world might be saved through Him.
John 12:47
If anyone hears My sayings and does not keep them, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world, but to save the world.
AMEN!!
John 3:19
19 And the judgement is this: though the light has come into the world people have preferred darkness to the light because their deeds were evil.
John 12:48
48 anyone who rejects me and refuses my words has his judge already: the word itself that I have spoken will be his judge on the last day.

Stuartcr,
GOD knows all. I dont ask for HIS sake.
This post if for people to ask themselves this question. Some will speak their answers openly, some not, and some may not even pay attention.
Either way, GOD does know all.
Have a blessed day.
Praise Jesus,
Jesus4life
Mountain Mary,
AMEN! You’re welcome, and of course GOD gets all the thanks and praise for using me and anyone to help others in their daily situations.
GOD always knows what we need when we need it.
Have a great GOD day everyday.
Praise JESUS,
Jesus4life
You’re wonderful, j4l.
Isn’t it amazing how we get just what we need from God when we most need it?
Seems like it doesn’t really matter what people do, as God knows their hearts regardless.
Thanks
MountainMary,
AMEN!!!! Yes it is amazing!!!!!! GOD IS GREAT and more.........
Praise Jesus,
Jesus4life
Stuartcr,
AMEN!! In the thought of trying to fool HIM, then it doesn’t matter what people do, because HE knows the heart/intention of each human being.
Because HE knows, this is why we are not ordered to judge each other. We are told to judge actions in order to guide someone to the path GOD wants. But we can not judge them to say they are evil or good, going to hell or heaven, or are the devil or not.
We can not judge like this by actions because then all of us would have been, at one time, extremely guilty.
This is why we must love one another and be living examples to one another. Showing each other through faith how each one of us should live. We must be honest enough with one another to talk through our issues/sins we have done to one another.
We must have patience for each other’s misunderstandings, bad teachings, and influences that sometimes lead each one of us to do things against HIS WILL and against one another.
We should always keep in the back of our minds that Jesus kept all the 12 disciples with HIM, fed them, did miracles around them, and taught them all the gospel. HE loved them all, even the one HE knew would betray HIM. This is what we should do with one another.
As Jesus says, “ love GOD with all your heart, soul, and mind, and strength: this is the first commandment. And the second is thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself. There is none other commandments greater than these!! “
Praise Jesus,

You know I am a spiritual person and a Catholic ..but I’ve never been very good at praying. I always end up making it about ME,,,like “Dear God, please help me to find my car keys”. :-)
But this whole primary race and Hussein’s threat to America has brought me to my knees in a whole different way. Now I pray for God’s will to be done and for Him to bless our country and Rick Santorum in the ways that He sees fit.
ie If Rick is not the nominee, then God has other plans for him and doesn’t want him to suffer at the hands of the evil regime(who we all know is going to try to make mince meat out of them)...not that they wouldn’t defeat them..but that the path is not a healthy one for him and his family to have to endure.
But right now, I’m thinkin’ GAME ON!! And here in Wisconsin, we just might have a surprise for everyone come Tuesday.
I so want to see Karl frantically trying to scratch out a last minute strategy for Mittens on his white board.
And the dour look on Brit’s face get more dour. I swear that man’s face looks longer and more miserable every day. Pretty soon, his jaw is going to rest on his chest.
And that walrus Dick Morris,sweating and cackling like a crow. Would someone tell me why he has cred with ANYONE?
Who’s paying him to spew his lies?
Mountain Mary,
AMEN! GOD has a way to show all of us at one point in our lives that it is all about HIM!! HE has a way of showing us that we are not in control, and to put all of our cares and worries in HIM!! HE will give us what we need when we are ready to receive and do the right things with it( talking to those that believe).
I am overjoyed to hear that HE has you praying the way HE wants you to pray. More changes will happen. This is the way of GOD, who brings us in HIS time to HIS LIGHT!
Praise JESUS,
Jesus4life
“And that walrus Dick Morris,sweating and cackling like a crow. Would someone tell me why he has cred with ANYONE?

~ ~ ~
Dick doesn’t “see” and will he take other commentors with
him? I think people are afraid, imagine, to elect a
Christian President. It’s insane.
Prophecy states the #1 judgment coming down on our country is for abortion. God is saying through his prophets pray for a leader who is 100% for life.
Do you “see” everyone, this will mitigate God’s just judgment on our nation. Stop when you remember and say a
heartfelt prayer for Santorum.
I like the way you write Mountain Mary.
