My Reflections

The Joyful Sound

Take UP Your Cross

Prompt:
Psalm 89:15-18
15 Blessed is the people that know the joyful sound: they shall walk, O Lord, in the light of thy countenance.
16 In thy name shall they rejoice all the day: and in thy righteousness shall they be exalted.
17 For thou art the glory of their strength: and in thy favour our horn shall be exalted.
18 For the Lord is our defence; and the Holy One of Israel is our king.

Explain these verses.

Answer:
God glorifies his people as they follow him and walk in his ways. He causes them to rejoice. I believe this joyful sound to be rejoicing and celebration. We are blessed and we win when we live for Jesus.

Scripture writing - Romans 8:35-39

Scripture:
35 Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword?
36 As it is written, For thy sake we are killed all the day long; we are accounted as sheep for the slaughter.
37 Nay, in all these things we are more than conquerors through him that loved us.
38 For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come,
39 Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.

Observations:
Verse 35- Nothing and No one can separate from the love of Christ.
Verse 36- Even when we are suffering persecution, we are not separated from His love.
Verse 37- we are MORE than conquerors in Christ.
Verses 38 and 39- Nothing in or out of this world 🌎 can separate us from God's love which we have in Jesus Christ.

Application:
We are loved unconditionally by God.

Prayer:
Dear God,
Thank you for loving me. Thank you for the security and assurance I find in you.
In the name of Jesus,
Amen

Prompt: What Easter be like for you compared to last year?

Well last year I stayed home and watched Easter services online as did most people. This year I hope to go in person. Either way, I am still thankful that Christ rose from the grave and provided a way of Salvation for all.

Geese are beautiful birds. I love to take pictures of them when I can. It amazes me to watch them in flight. I have taken some awesome pictures of geese in the past. I would love to get some more. I think one day I would love to go to a lake and watch the sun rise or set while taking some pictures and if I am lucky there will be some geese there too.

Day 5056: March 31, 2021

Prompt: "It is the nature of the strong heart, that like the palm tree it strives ever upwards when it is most burdened." ~ Philip Sidney
Write about nature and palm trees.

The ninja monkeys would like this prompt I think. 😂 I get a mental picture of them climbing the palm trees, picking the coconuts, and throwing them at people and each other from in in the tree they are in. 😂

There is a game for the Xbox One and Wii that is Super Mario Party 8. It has a board you can play that is tropical and has mini games that include monkeys climbing ropes while trying to avoid getting hit in the head with coconuts. It is quite the challenge and a fun little family game. I recommend it, and yes there are palm trees in this game. 😊🌴🥥

Palm trees make me think of a beach or a tropical area. I think of sunshine and a light breeze. Short of a picture of a hurricane, it is actually quite a relaxing scene I see in my imagination. It would be fun to go to a place like this and take pictures, especially if there are seagulls or other animals around the area and close to sunrise or sunset with a few clouds floating in the sky.
