April 17 Hello every one
hope all is well
I have been realy busy.
I post more later
GBU robin February 15
John 13:16 records the final hours Jesus had with the disciples. What he taught during this brief and crucial time would reflect the most important things for them (and us) to remember.
Repeatedly in these important scriptures He urges us to ask of Him. Read John 14:13-14; 15:7; 16:23; 24, 26. Seven times in these scriptures He said, “Ask,”. Fear of asking amiss as James said (4:3) can destroy faith. We are afraid to ask for fear it will not be according to the will of God. These are scriptural stipulations for asking, but there are other stipulations by which we can measure our asking in a more positive way.
Ask in His name – as though He Himself were requesting. Ask with the knowledge that you are abiding in Him – seeing yourself in Christ as you ask. Ask according to His word – according to the principles and promises of God. Ask so that the answer glorifies God.
“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think according to the power that worketh in us” ( Ephesians 3:2).
Have a great week.

by Gayla Baughman  I always thought men were of the impression that women were the carnal ones that needed to be whipped into shape. We were the ones that were naturally worldly. It was the woman that suffered insensitive gossip, inflated vanity, and inappropriate affections. One day the Lord began to deal with my totem-pole syndrome.
I am not alone. Many women suffer from this totem-pole syndrome. We see the people around us as the faces carved, one above the other on a vertical tree trunk. The higher the face is on the trunk, the more close to God they are, or the more successful they may be. But alas, our face is the one closest to the dirt. Where did we get the idea that we were the lowest face on the totem pole? Where did we get the idea that we were the least important person in the world? God never gave us that place. We just took it because we didn’t know that there was a better place to be.
Eventually I begin to notice who was praying in our churches…the ones that were faithful sitting on the pews. One pastor confided to me that if it were not for the women in his church, he would never see revival. They were committed; they were the ones that were praying, they were the ones that raised money to make the rent payment or mortgage on the church building payment.
I am no longer a victim of the totem-pole syndrome. Now I see myself as God sees me. I am a precious jewel that he saw fit to come to this earth and die for. Isaiah 43:4 says, “Since you were precious in My sight You have been honored, and I have loved you.” Now I am living by grace and the forgiveness of Jesus Christ who died on a tree at Calvary, and rose again. A living loving God, rather than intimidating faces on an old dead tree, a totem-pole. “But now, thus says the LORD, who created you, O Jacob, And He who formed you, O Israel: “ Fear not, for I have redeemed you; I have called you by your name; You are Mine.” Isaiah 43:1

Matthew 2
| Mt 2:1 |
Now when Jesus was born in Bethlehem of Judaea in the days of Herod the king, behold, Wise-men from the east came to Jerusalem, saying, |
| Mt 2:2 |
Where is he that is born King of the Jews? for we saw his star in the east, and are come to worship him. |
| Mt 2:3 |
And when Herod the king heard it, he was troubled, and all Jerusalem with him. |
| Mt 2:4 |
And gathering together all the chief priests and scribes of the people, he inquired of them where the Christ should be born. |
| Mt 2:5 |
And they said unto him, In Bethlehem of Judaea: for thus it is written through the prophet, |
| Mt 2:6 |
And thou Bethlehem, land of Judah, Art in no wise least among the princes of Judah: For out of thee shall come forth a governor, Who shall be shepherd of my people Israel. |
| Mt 2:7 |
Then Herod privily called the Wise-men, and learned of them exactly what time the star appeared. |
| Mt 2:8 |
And he sent them to Bethlehem, and said, Go and search out exactly concerning the young child; and when ye have found [him,] bring me word, that I also may come and worship him. |
| Mt 2:9 |
And they, having heard the king, went their way; and lo, the star, which they saw in the east, went before them, till it came and stood over where the young child was. |
| Mt 2:10 |
And when they saw the star, they rejoiced with exceeding great joy. |
| Mt 2:11 |
And they came into the house and saw the young child with Mary his mother; and they fell down and worshipped him; and opening their treasures they offered unto him gifts, gold and frankincense and myrrh.
| Mt 2:12 |
And being warned [of God] in a dream that they should not return to Herod, they departed into their own country another way. |
| Mt 2:13 |
Now when they were departed, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth to Joseph in a dream, saying, Arise and take the young child and his mother, and flee into Egypt, and be thou there until I tell thee: for Herod will seek the young child to destroy him. |
| Mt 2:14 |
And he arose and took the young child and his mother by night, and departed into Egypt; |
| Mt 2:15 |
and was there until the death of Herod: that it might be fulfilled which was spoken by the Lord through the prophet, saying, Out of Egypt did I call my son. |
| Mt 2:16 |
Then Herod, when he saw that he was mocked of the Wise-men, was exceeding wroth, and sent forth, and slew all the male children that were in Bethlehem, and in all the borders thereof, from two years old and under, according to the time which he had exactly learned of the Wise-men. |
| Mt 2:17 |
Then was fulfilled that which was spoken through Jeremiah the prophet, saying, |
| Mt 2:18 |
A voice was heard in Ramah, Weeping and great mourning, Rachel weeping for her children; And she would not be comforted, because they are not. |
| Mt 2:19 |
But when Herod was dead, behold, an angel of the Lord appeareth in a dream to Joseph in Egypt, saying, |
| Mt 2:20 |
Arise and take the young child and his mother, and go into the land of Israel: for they are dead that sought the young child`s life. |
| Mt 2:21 |
And he arose and took the young child and his mother, and came into the land of Israel. |
| Mt 2:22 |
But when he heard that Archelaus was reigning over Judaea in the room of his father Herod, he was afraid to go thither; and being warned [of God] in a dream, he withdrew into the parts of Galilee, |
| Mt 2:23 |
and came and dwelt in a city called Nazareth; that it might be fulfilled which was spoken through the prophets, that he should be called a Nazarene. | |
