February 22nd
prompt
Psalms 20:6-7
6 Now know I that the Lord saveth his anointed; he will hear him from his holy heaven with the saving strength of his right hand.
7 Some trust in chariots, and some in horses: but we will remember the name of the Lord our God.
What does this mean to you?
Trusting in God is the only sure thing.
February 23rd
prompt
Write about any scripture pertaining to holiness.
1 Peter 1:16 - Because it is written, Be ye holy; for I am holy.
This is the first verse that comes to mind followed by
Hebrews 12:10-14
10For they verily for a few days chastened us after their own pleasure; but he for our profit, that we might be partakers of his holiness.
11Now no chastening for the present seemeth to be joyous, but grievous: nevertheless afterward it yieldeth the peaceable fruit of righteousness unto them which are exercised thereby.
12Wherefore lift up the hands which hang down, and the feeble knees;
13And make straight paths for your feet, lest that which is lame be turned out of the way; but let it rather be healed.
14Follow peace with all men, and holiness, without which no man shall see the Lord:
This second verse was right in the back of my mind somewhere. I had to look it up. However, it tells us God does not punish us just for his benefit but for ours. That's something to think about.

prompt
What scripture comes to mind when you feel misunderstood?
Could being misunderstood be a form of suffering persecution? Maybe sometimes. Jesus was misunderstood. So was Joseph and a few other Biblical characters. The main biblical story that comes to my mind is when Hannah was asking God for a son and the priest thought she was drunk.

prompt
How should a Christian handle disappointment?
A Christian should handle disappointment by trusting in God's sovereignty and knowing that all things work together for good. We can also rest in the fact that God has a good plan for us and always has our best interest at heart.

Prompt
What can we learn from the story of David and Goliath in 1 Samuel 17?
There are many lessons we can learn from this. God will fight our battles. God always wins. When we have the Holy Spirit, anything is possible. When the Holy Spirit is not with us, we are doubtful and full of fear. We can remember past victories in the Lord to help us have faith in the present. I am sure there are more but that's all I can think of at the moment.

I have too many irons in the fire and need to re-find my balance. Sorry I missed this prompt.
March 1st
(Has anyone seen my brain? lol I seem to have misplaced it.)
On a more serious note: I think I am having an autoimmune flare up. I do apologize. I could have sworn that I sent out a blog prompt last night for today. I have no idea what happened to it, but I obviously didn't get it sent. Wow! I feel like I am so out of it. Brain fog is no fun!

Prompt
Do you believe there is only one way to get into heaven or many ways?
Jesus is the only way. Anything that comes from another way, is a thief and a liar. Jesus himself said so.
March 2nd
prompt
Write about your thoughts on Biblical blessings and curses.
You are either living a blessed life in Christ or you are already cursed and condemned according to John 3:16 among other scriptures.
Today is the day a very good friend of mine passed away due to COVID. This one really hurts. If I ever got caloused and careless about death, I think there would be something wrong with me. However, ever since September of 2017, I have experienced a lot of it, especially in the last couple years during the pandemic. It is so heartbreaking. Yet I cling to the hope I have found in Christ. I hope that I will see loved ones again in Heaven. I hope because someday all my teas will be wiped away. All pain and suffering will end for those of us whose faith is in Christ. We just have to endure until our life ends. I hope because my loved ones in Christ don't have to hurt or sorrow or cry any more. It is so much more difficult when someone dies without Christ.

prompt
How can a Christian handle fear?
A Christian should handle fear by running straight to Christ. Fear shows a lack of faith when we cling to our fears. God does not want us to be afraid but to trust in him.
