God does not give us things to make us miserable, does He? I have never read where He does that. His gifts are always for our good and enjoyment. I read about some gifts this morning that I would like to share with you that I believe will help us in our Christian walk. Do you need help? I know that I do. I have been going through some pretty heavy things lately and I need encouragement to get to the other side of them.
I hope this encourages you too.
Psalms 19:7-11. I am going to go through these verses piece by piece to see the gifts and what they do for us.
Verse 7 has two gifts in it: "The law of the Lord is perfect converting the soul; the testimony of the Lord is sure, making wise the simple;" Converting our soul is a gift that God does for us when we study His law and convert means transform, I need my soul transformed into His image, this is a wonderful gift and the other gift is making wise the simple. I am simple and need His wisdom, so there are two gifts that I need especially.
Verse 8 "The statues of the Lord are right, rejoicing the heart; The commandment of the Lord is pure, enlightening the eyes." My understanding of the word 'statues' is that they are the rules that God gave Israel for their well being as they were written out by Moses and placed in the side of the ark, not in the ark as were the commandments and included things for health and comfort for them. Some of them are still pertinent for today and they rejoice our hearts or bring joy to our hearts to heed them. And the commandment of the Lord was written on stone and is still enlightening to us as we walk our Christian walk.
Verse 9 "The fear of the Lord is clean, enduring forever; The judgments of the Lord are true and righteous altogether;" We have nothing to fear as long as we are following His instructions, they are clean and last forever. His judgments are true and righteous, all of them.
Verse 10 "More to be desired are they than gold, yea, than much fine gold. Sweeter than honey and the honeycomb. We should desire His word more than we desire gold because it means everlasting life to those who follow His word and do those things that are pleasing to Him.
Verse 11 "Moreover by them Your servant is warned, and in keeping them there is great reward."
In keeping His word there is great reward and as we follow on to know the Lord, it becomes sweeter as the days go by. This is so true and this little study has helped me to see how important it is to please Him.
His Word transforms us and makes us simple ones, wise, it rejoices our heart and enlightens us in our journey. We need not fear on this journey we are on because His word endures forever and is righteous and true. As we walk the Christian walk it becomes sweeter each day of our journey. Try it, you just might be overjoyed in your Christian walk. Grandma Joan

Different Kinds of Friends
I am very sure that you have had all kinds of friends and they may be described in this study. I know I have had many different kinds of friends and some are still my friends today, even though we don't communicate, if we did it would be like old times. In first Samuel 18 it tells how close David and Jonathan were and that's how it should be with us.
Proverbs 18:24 "A man who has friends must himself be friendly. But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother."
2 Corinthians 2:12,13 "Furthermore when I came to Troas to preach Christ's gospel, and a door was opened to me by the Lord. I had no rest in my spirit, because I did not find Titus my brother; but taking my leave of them I departed for Macedonia." Evidently Paul and Titus were close like brothers and when he wasn't there Paul had no rest in his spirit. What a beautiful friendship they must have had. I guess you would call it an ardent friendship.
Then there are friendships that are not so good.
Matthew 26:48-50 "Now His betrayer had given them a sign saying 'whomsoever I kiss, He is the One seize Him. Immediately he went up to Jesus and said, Greetings, Rabbi' and kissed Him. But Jesus said to him, 'Friend, why have you come?" Then they came and laid hands on Jesus and took Him." I would call that a treacherous friend, wouldn't you?
Deuteronomy 13:6-9 it tells about trying to get your family or your friend to go and serve false gods. That would be a dangerous friend, don't you think?
Job 19:14-19 Job tells how all his family and friends have turned against him in his affliction and abhor him. Talk about unfaithful friends. Job had it all. No one wanted anything to do with him and even his wife told him to curse God and die. That's why we hear the phrase, 'the patience of Job'. He must have been a very patient man and when it was all over and he proved his faithfulness to God, God blessed his latter days more than his former and he was a rich man to begin with so he was blessed abundantly because of his faithfulness. But his friends turned out to be unfaithful friends.
I guess we need to be careful of what kind of friends we pick because there are all kinds and we want to be sure they are faithful and true and if we are faithful and true, God will help us pick our friends carefully. We don't want to be led astray from God by unfaithful friends who don't like what we believe or like the way we live our life. Let's be very careful who we associate with as bosom friends. We need to show ourselves friendly to everyone and even help strangers as we have learned but be careful when choosing close friends with whom we confide in. Grandma Joan

Office of the Holy Spirit
Ezekiel 36:26,27 "I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit within you; I will take the heart of stone out of your flesh and give you a heart of flesh. I will put My Spirit within you and cause you to walk in My statutes, and you will keep My judgments and do them."
MB 7 "Whom Christ pardons, He first makes penitent, and it is the office of the Holy Spirit to convince of sin. Those whose hearts have been moved by the convicting Spirit of God see that there is nothing good in themselves. They see that all they have ever done is mingled with self and sin. Like the poor publican, they stand afar off, not daring to lift up so much as their eyes to heaven, and cry, 'God be merciful to me a sinner'.Luke 18:13. And they are blessed. There is forgiveness for the penitent, for Christ is 'the Lamb of God, which taketh away the sin of the world.' John 1:29. God's promise is; 'though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.' 'A new heart also will I give you....And I will put My Spirit within you. Isaiah 1:18 and Ezekiel 36:26,27."
Shall we let the Holy Spirit do His office work in our hearts. Pray for His Spirit to fill you and you will be filled if you make it a daily practice to walk in the Spirit. Grandma Joan

Sharing Our Feelings
It is so good to have someone to share your feelings with. I miss my husband so much and that is one of the main things we did was share our feelings with each other and when that is gone, who do you share with? It's hard to share with some people because they think you are gossiping, or finding fault or just don't like somebody when that is not the case at all. Most of the time it just helps to get things out in the open so you can see what it looks like and with a little help from your spouse, you can really see what it does look like in someone else's eyes. Very good to find out what something looks like to someone else. And their advice on how to handle things can be most helpful too.
Galatians 6:2 "Bear one another's burdens, and so fulfill the law of Christ." It is good to help lift someone else's burdens, it not only helps them, it helps you too to help lift their burdens as much as you can, and you can always tell them to let Christ share them too and that really helps.
Hebrews 13:3 "Remember the prisoners as if chained with them--those who are mistreated--since you yourself are in the body also." I understand from those that do prison ministries that it is a very rewarding work, and they come away overjoyed with their encounters with prisoners. Sharing their feelings, listening to their heartaches and their sorrow over why they are there. It would be a very rewarding ministry.
In John 11, Jesus expresses His feelings of sorrow over one of His best friends death. It says, 'Jesus wept'.
You can read the chapter, it is very touching and also the ending is very exciting. Jesus also feels our pain and sorrow and wants to bring us healing as well.
Luke 10, This is the story of the Good Samaritan that found a fellow traveler that was wounded and stopped to show compassion on him, and treating his wounds and taking him to an Inn to be cared for and paid for his care also. Sharing feelings for a fellow traveler, who was a stranger to him. A good example for sharing with a stranger.
Acts 20:35 "I have shown you in every way, by laboring like this, that you must support the weak. And remember the words of the Lord Jesus, that He said, 'It is more blessed to give than to receive." Isn't that the truth, it is more blessed to give than to receive. I love to give, but sometimes I don't have anything to give but some love and let others know that I care but when I can give material, I try to do that too, to those who are weak or have encountered misfortune. Lately it seems I am on the receiving end but when I get on the
giving end, I will repay for all I have received, if not to the giver maybe to others who are in need. It just depends on the circumstances. I love to give. Do you? I am sure that most people do and I hope you will share your feelings with others to help them on their upward walk. Grandma Joan

Things That Are Sweet in the Bible"
We talked about sweet smelling things and I thought about the word sweet and figured that a study on sweet things other than smell might be quite interesting.
Proverbs 16:24 "Pleasant words are like a honey comb, sweetness to the soul and health to the bones." It's very important that our words are sweet." Psalms 19:14 "Let the words of my mouth and the meditation of my heart be acceptable in Your sight, O Lord, my strength and my Redeemer." If everyone's words were sweet wouldn't it be a wonderful thing to hear. It would be such a blessing.
Psalms 119:103.104 "How sweet are Your words to my taste sweeter than honey to my mouth! Through Your precepts, I get understanding...." A great way for us to get sweet understanding.
Psalms 55:14 "We took sweet counsel together and walked to the house of God in the throng." Sweet fellowship, Oh how much I miss it! Sweet counsel together, how much of that is needed today by just about everybody, me included.
Psalms 104:33,34 "I will sing to the Lord as long as I live; I will sing praise to my God while I have my being, May my meditation be sweet to Him; I will be glad in the Lord." When we meditate on His love and compassion towards us, it is sweet to Him and probably be sweet to us too.
Proverbs 3:24 "When you lie down, you will not be afraid; Yes, you will lie down and your sleep will be sweet." How many people have trouble sleeping at night? I have had trouble sleeping and trouble going to sleep and it seems like the devil wants to bring up all kinds of thoughts to my mind that trouble me and things that I have been forgiven for, but he is cruel and ruthless and he doesn't care what happens to us but God does and so I have learned to pray out loud when this happens and it goes away, the devil is not a match for my Savior at all. Jesus always wins.
To wind up this study on sweetness, pleasant words are sweet, God's words are sweet and we get sweet understanding from them. Christian counsel is sweet, and fellowship with Christians of like faith is sweet. It is also sweet to meditate on His love and compassion towards us. And sound sweet sleep is so refreshing when you wake up after a nights rest like that. To sleep without fear is great too. I was robbed last year while I was gone and I am so glad that I never was afraid to sleep after that and I'm still not. It was my troublesome thoughts that were annoying me. But I nipped that in the bud too. Sleep is so important to good health and I know what it is like to only get three or four hours a night for a long time when my husband was ill. So friends sleep well, enjoy the sweetness that the Bible offers us. Grandma Joan

A Sweet Smell
I don't know how many of you like sweet smells but I love them and I thought it would be interesting to see what God says about sweet smells. I love the smell of a beauty bush, they are hard to find but their smell is out of this world, also gardenias, I had gardenias on a white Bible for my wedding bouquet. Roses have a special smell but have you noticed that all flowers do not have a sweet smell, some even stink, I think, but their beauty over rides the smell. Some have no odor at all.
John 12:3 "Then Mary took a pound of very costly oil of spikenard and anointed the feet of Jesus, and wiped His feet with her hair. And the house was filled with the fragrance of the oil." I have never smelled spikenard but it must have been wonderful. Maybe you have, I would love to get a faint smell of it just to know what she anointed His feet with.
Hosea 14:7 "Those who dwell under His shadow shall return: they shall be revived like grain, and grow like a vine, Their scent shall be like the wine of Lebanon." The new Christian will have a scent about them that reminds us of new wine. The smell of grapes fresh off the vine is great and the juice is even greater. Their character will be fresh like new wine. What a great way to express the character of a new Christian. I like that, don't you? I want to have a character that has a special aroma about me of freshness.
Ephesians 5:1,2 "Therefore be imitators of God as dear children, and walk in love as Christ also has loved us and given Himself for us, an offering and a sacrifice to God for a sweet smelling aroma." Our offerings and the sacrifices that we make to God are a sweet smelling aroma. We are also told in Revelation 8:4 that our prayers arise like the smoke of incense before God. I love incense, I guess you could say that anything that smells good I like. To think that my prayers rise before God like sweet smelling incense is encouraging and should want to make me pray more, shouldn't it?
Well, those are some of the sweet smells that the Bible writers talk about and we can apply most of it to our lives, the smell of spikenard, which someday I am going to see if I can find some and the smell of new wine, I love the smell of fresh grape juice and to have a fresh aroma about us like that for a new Christian is really special, I think.
And of course when our prayers rise to God like sweet smelling incense makes me want to light an incense when I pray and watch it go up before God. I don't think God expects us to do that but it would be interesting to do. I don't want to make light of anything that we do but sometimes an example of some of the things that God expects of us has more meaning when we make it real before out eyes. Will you try to be a sweet smelling savor by being a great Christian in your life? I think God would appreciate all that we do to be an example to others, don't you? I want to be. Grandma Joan

A Vital Ingredient In Life.
Do you feel like your missing out on something, maybe some little area of your life seems to have a void in it? Or maybe you feel like there is a big hole that needs filled and you can't figure out just what it is that you are missing? This should concern you because any time we have that empty feeling, there is probably something vitally important that concerns us and we need to fill it.
I, personally have felt that void and have been prompted to seek out the reason for it and fill it, sometimes it takes an extremely deep longing for something, we are not sure for what. Let's see if we can discover what it might be.
I named my blog 'Vital Concerns' because I had a lot of 'vital concerns' when I started this blog and I thought perhaps others had the same concerns. I have tried to cover a lot of them and sometimes twice they seem so vital to me. Today is one of those days that I will probably duplicate another study but not entirely.
The 'vital concern' that I have right now is 'prayer'. How much time should I spend in prayer? How often should I pray? What should I pray for and who should I pray for? Is my prayer reaching the throne of God? Do you think these are vital concerns? I sure do.
We must have a forgiving spirit when we come to God in prayer, so that we may be forgiven. Matthew 6:14
We must come to Him in humility and in a repenting, sorrowing spirit. Luke 18:10-14.
We must come to Him with tenacity or stubborn spirit that won't let go of Him. Luke 18:1-8.
We must come to Him with persistence, keep on asking and persevering until we receive our answers. Luke 11:5-8.
We must have an intensity of spirit, a spirit of deep concern and sincere. Matthew 7:7-11.
We must have confident expectation, expecting an answer. Mark 11:24.
Oh yes, we must not use empty, pharisaical phrases, phrases that don't mean much or say things in insincerity. Matthew 6:7.
We must be in an attitude of prayer at all times, in other words, there shouldn't be a moment when we can't reach out to God anytime, anywhere, in emergencies, in temptation, whatever the moment might bring, we should be able to talk to Him as to a friend. 1 Thessalonians 5:17.
Make a prayer list and pray for those on it as often as you feel it necessary. Daniel prayed three times a day, he made it a point to do that. We can do the same. Daniel's life was close to God and I think that might be the greatest void in our lives today, we are so busy and so many things on our minds that we forget to cast all our cares upon Him Who cares for us in all circumstances. We forget to talk to Him as to a Friend, He is our very best Friend and sometimes we ignore Him, but He doesn't ignore us. He sees every tear, every heartache, every burden, so let's pray more and let Him take care of all our needs and see if that void in our lives doesn't go away. It's worth a try isn't it? I think so.
