Good Morning
Pig and me are all already for the day.
Pig and I were looking for the blessings that GOD promises new every morning.
Lamentations 3:22-23
The steadfast love of GOD never ceases:HIS mercies are new every morning.
Great is your faithfulness.
English American Standard version.
Read King James too.
Pig asked, The whole chapter?
Yes, Pig. This will make you more grateful to know how much
HE cares for you and wants to protect you everyday.
Pig and I wake up everyday now with a new window view to our room.
We wake up with the sun rising. No clock needed.
Pig says, Time to get up, as she shakes herself making her fur body all fluffy again.
I am always ready for my special breakfast, she said.
My menu of Pancakes and butter with maple syrup warmed up and with my ice cold milk.
I like my milk now in little mason jars, it's more fun.
If I don't drink it all ? You just put a lid on my milk with my name on it.
Funny Pig.
That was a good idea you had.
She smiled and said, Thank You.
Funny Pig. To think I don't know your breakfast? This I know.
Pig interupted because THE BIBLE TELLS YOU SO?
Funny Pig. You know thats the part of the JESUS loves me song LYRIC, not your breakfast menu.
I know, Pig said.
I like that HE loves me too Part of the song.
It really starts my day out with a happy thought and feeling knowing that not only me but we are ALL Loved by JESUS.
Pig, I said. That is a very sweet thought and we should sing it.
Pig said, ok as I was making breakfast.
We started discovering all the blessings we have every day and the ones we just think will always be there.
Like your breath and your life and your Peace.
It's exciting to wake up with a new Hope and a new JOY.
New expectations a Hope that something good is going to happen to you like my Granny would say.
GOD says to come expecting something good and think on something GOOD.
Phillipians 4:6 :
Do not be anxious for anything, but in everything by prayer and supplication with Thanksgiving let your requests be made known to GOD.
and the Peace of GOD, which surpasses all understanding,will guard your hearts and your minds in CHRIST JESUS.
Beautiful, Pig said. And that is quite a blessing but what does supplication mean?
Funny Pig. I asked the same thing in my mind. Glad you asked that.
It can be defined as by The Websters dictionary as a sincere, humble and earnest request or Prayer to a higher power, such as GOD, for assistance, protection, guidance, or forgiveness.
Wow, Pig thats loads of Blessings in just one word.
Pig responded again to herself.
Would you expect anything less when GOD is talking?
You are funny Pig and with a very observant thought since with HIM speaking very few words the entire world was created.
Genesis 1;3 And GOD said let there be light and there was light.
Psalm 33;9 HE spoke and it was done; HE commanded and it stood fast.
Psalm 150 says to Praise with Music and instruments and singing. It says let have everything that hath breath, Praise THE LORD. Read full chapter to get its fullness.
Pig said, I have one more question for today. What is it Pig?
Why does te scripture Phillpians 4:6 include the word MINDS in JESUS protecting them all.
Ok Pig, I noticed that too.
First I thought it was said figuratively like all our minds of the people together.
And then to know our one physical mind has many parts inside that can't be seen.
But felt and experienced in different ways. So JESUS is protecting every Part of us in our minds.
One mind awake to our conscious mind.
One mind that includes our sub conscious mind that we are not aware of.
One mind that has our super conscious where are dreams and connections to more than what we know of creative self and receive inspiration of GOD.
We need to be careful to feed your mind the word of GOD.
Why? you ask.
Because just like TV or computer Pig,
you can be directed the channel to good stuff or bad stuff.
Thats why GOD says think on these things whatsoever things are true, honest,whatsover is just,pure,is lovely or of good report if there be any virtue,and if there be any praise,
think on these things. Phillpians 4:8
You and me who know JESUS AS SAVIOR AND LORD are all protected by GOD.
Because we are HIS children. HE protects us.
We do have to make daily choices PIg, to what we see or to do good or evil.
Job in THE BIBLE told himself to guard what he saw and what he heard so he did not sin
against GOD. Job 31:-4
I looked it up. The seceret is we need GOD and HIS word in us every day to fight the enemy in our minds Pig.
Today Pig and I are Praying for divine protection written by a teenager named Patrick full of the HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD.
We have so many blessings to be able to Pray and request boldly but humbly to GOD who made us to protect and guide us daily.
Pig and I are reciting this Prayer out loud for our ears and minds to hear what the Spirit of THE LORD says.
St. Patrick's Breastplate: Divine Protection
Christ with me,
Christ before me,
Christ behind me,
Christ in me,
Christ beneath me,
Christ above me,
Christ on my right,
Christ on my left,
Christ when I lie down,
Christ when I sit down,
Christ when I arise,
Christ in the heart of every man who thinks of me,
Christ in the mouth of everyone who speaks of me,
Christ in every eye that sees me,
Christ in every ear that hears me.
I arise today
Through a mighty strength, the invocation of the Trinity,
Through belief in the Threeness,
Through confession of the Oneness
of the Creator of creation.
Praying in JESUS NAME
AMEN
As Patrick Prayed this Prayer
He had received Jesus Christ as Savior
And to deliver him and protect him.
THE HOLY SPIRIT OF GOD
filled him and
drew closer to him as Patrick
Accepted Christ as Savior.
He also would recite THE LORDS PRAYER.
OUR FATHER WHO ART IN HEAVEN
HALLOWED BE THY NAME
THY KINGDOM COME
THY WILL BE DONE
IN EARTH
AS IT IS IN HEAVEN
GIVE US THIS DAY OUR DAILY BREAD
AND
FORGIVE US OUR TRESPASS
AS WE FORGIVE THOSE THAT OR TRESPASS AGAINST US
AND
LEAD US NOT INTO TEMPTATION
BUT DELIVER US FROM EVIL
FOR THINE
IS THE KINGDOM
AND
THE POWER
AND
THE GLORY
FOREVER
AND EVER
AMEN
We Pray day and night without ceasing thinking of GOD during our day by saying
Thank you for the things you notice everyday that HE does for you.
Thank GOD for the things you hope for in the future.
Sometimes I know, we don't know what to say after a minute praying to GOD.
So Pig and I we start thanking HIM for our blessings.
Like not being sick or having a full belly or getting to do something fun today or so many things to think about to count your many blessings.
Pig said, then name them one by one and see what tHE LORD has done.
Yes, Pig thats how to do it.
It becomes our life. The game of Life full of Happiness and Joy that says, Thank you for all the Blessings that GOD gives to us all daily.
But when you are in trouble Pig, You and I know that the words just pour out of your Soul and Spirit.
Do you know whats wonderful Pig?
What? she said.
GOD is there and hears your every cry and and every word you said.
And then HE comes by your side to help you and comfort you.
Thats the GOD we serve, Pig.
Pig looked at me and said, I know.
Then we both smiled each other.
This is the story for today
from Pig and me.
