When I remember who you are I am reminded of what you can do. Lots of things I cannot count on but you "I CAN." Lots of things I don't find hope in, but you Lord I find "HOPE" in.
Thank you Lord for reminding me this day:

1. I can count on your presence to re-assure me I am not alone
2. I can count on your power to lift me up when I am weary.
3. I can count on your love to change my life.
4. I can count on you to always show me the way when I go astray.
5. I can count on you to provide for me every need.
6. I can count on you to give direction for my life.
7. I can count on you to use me to bless others.

The list is infinite, but thank you for reminding me of these seven truths.

I am counting on the lord;yes, I am counting on him.I have put my hope in his word.
PSALMS 130:5

Passing it on, how good are we at doing it, I know we are good at passing on to generation after generation things that absolutely don't matter, I know we are good at passing on to generation after generation bad habits/traits.

But how good are we at passing on the word of God. Is it written on your heart so that your children can witness it with their eyes, is it heard in their ears when you speak, have you become a living testimony of the word of God in the lives of those you encounter.

When people see you, do they see Jesus, when people hear you do they hear Jesus.
Israel was instructed every 7th year to read the the book of instruction and teach people the way to be blessed, by following the Lord. This was so that children who had not heard the word would hear of the immutable God they serve and then follow Him.

12 Call them all together—men, women, children, and the foreigners living in your towns—so they may hear this Book of Instruction and learn to fear the lord your God and carefully obey all the terms of these instructions. 13 Do this so that your children who have not known these instructions will hear them and will learn to fear the lord your God. Do this as long as you live in the land you are crossing the Jordan to occupy.” Det 31:12-13

All the Pharos Tombs are empty because someone took them out, but Jesus although He had no pulse, not breath in His lungs, no life in His body rose from the dead, rolled the stone away and He Lives.
Because Jesus lives:

•  I have Hope for the future
•  I have Power for today
•  I have Peace 
•  I have Grace sufficient for all my needs
•  I have Mercy I don'd deserve

I have found a hope that cannot be quenched, cannot be matched, cannot be replaced, my Hope is in Jesus Christ, He is who He said He was, He can do what He said He can do, He lives and now so can I
Thank you Lord!
And if Christ be not risen, then is our preaching vain, and your faith is also vain. 1 Corinthians 15:14

Little white fences, even from the time we are young we are taught to make a life in this world, yet the Bible tells us that we are ambassadors, sojourners, visitors just passing through on a mission.

Often we make our plans for this life, and forget that the most important thing is to make preparations for the next, its what we do for the Kingdom we belong too that matters most. A Kingdom that will not fade, will last forever, the very place God is, that is the future I plan and hope for.
