18 If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone. 19 Do not take revenge, my dear friends, but leave room for God’s wrath, for it is written: “It is mine to avenge; I will repay,” says the Lord. 20 On the contrary:
“If your enemy is hungry, feed him; if he is thirsty, give him something to drink. In doing this, you will heap burning coals on his head.”
"I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith. Henceforth......" Timothy 2 4:7. I picked it for my dad's headstone, nothing was truer.
For My thoughts are not your thoughts, Neither are your ways my ways, saith the lord. For as the heavens are hight than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways, and my thoughts than your thoughts
Galatians 2:20 says, "I have been crucified with Christ. Yet it is no longer I who live, but Christ who lives in me. And the life I now live in the flesh I live by faith in the Son of God, who loved me and gave himself for me".
@LadyGrace These two verses are also my two favorites...I fully understand the first one....I went to the Hospital because I collapsed at the clinic...That morning I collapsed too hearing Angels sing she's alive she's alive she's alive...They did a ECG and determined that I had Hypotension....What I was going through wasn't for the faint of heart while laying in the bed in the ER a false prophet was telling the Doctors all about my sins from early childhood on, she told them half truths and lies!!!! She was planning my funeral with white roses and me changing my name to my middle name which was my Grandma's name!!! But not me I was clinging to my Angels singing!!!!!I'm ALIVE! But during this time I felt the very real pain of Jesus's pain on the cross in my own body! I felt stigmata in both hands both feet and my right side....I told the doctors about it that I was suffering from stigmata and that I could hear the Angels singing....Then I had this strong urge to pray for the patients in this hospital and the one in the next town....That's when Jesus started Healing everyone!!!! It was not me but Christ who lives through me.... [media=https://youtu.be/hdw1uKiTI5c] [media=https://youtu.be/_cLhaZIBSpo] The second song is fitting because the spirit of the fragrance of LIFE called out poor baby check that to the doctor who received a woman who had already given birth 4 days earlier to a baby girl, turns out she was pregnant with twins and the boy was left inside of her....The drought breaks with the tears of a Mother a baby's cry is the sound of love come down...I just like these songs because they're true and Heavenly God gave me beauty for ashes. Thus healing me with His beauty!
@saintsong Aw, beloved, you've been through so much. I'm so sorry. Yes, God gave you beauty for ashes and victory! Praise be to God. He is so good and he loves you so much. You are special. Those songs are so beautiful and I thank you so much for sharing them. You are a beautiful soul and a sweet lady. I'm thankful for you. A true lover of God and so faithful. I know he's very proud of you. I wish we had more sweet and kind people in this world like you. God bless you, Sister
Ephesians 2:8-10 (8)For by grace are ye saved through faith; and that not of yourselves: it's the gift of God:(9) not of works, lest any man should boast. (10) For we are His workmanship, created in Jesus Christ unto good works, which God hath before ordained that we should walk in them.
The Spirit of the Sovereign Lord is on me, because the Lord has anointed me to proclaim good news to the poor. He has sent me to bind up the brokenhearted, to proclaim freedom for the captives and release from darkness for the prisoners, 2 to proclaim the year of the Lord’s favor and the day of vengeance of our God, to comfort all who mourn, 3 and provide for those who grieve in Zion— to bestow on them a crown of beauty instead of ashes, the oil of joy instead of mourning, and a garment of praise instead of a spirit of despair. They will be called oaks of righteousness, a planting of the Lord for the display of his splendor.
Isaiah 41:10 King James Version 10 Fear thou not; for I am with thee: be not dismayed; for I am thy God: I will strengthen thee; yea, I will help thee; yea, I will uphold thee with the right hand of my righteousness.
