It's Friday Eve and Weight Watchers Weigh In Day

It's been a long but pretty good week. Took my dad to the Med Center for a test at St Luke's Tower, of course there was road construction, thankfully he knows all the side streets down there and as navigator helped me avoid most of the construction. We then stopped for lunch at a Houston institution, James Coney Island. I was shocked because he rarely eats that type of food. I can hardly wait to weigh in this morning after a meal at JCI ha ha ha, I have lost 7 lbs about 50 to go. It's a start and I have to remember through Christ Jesus all things are possible.

I am re-reading a book by Anne Graham Lotz, The Vision of His Glory, I read it about 10 years ago and decided to re-read it because I will be leading a study on Revelation early next year. She talks about the omnipresence of Jesus which I find so thrilling and so humbling at the same time. Jesus is the Lord God who is, who was, and who is to come (Rev 1:8b). He has the same personality in heaven as when He walked on earth 2000 years ago, and his personality will be the same when we meet Him in heaven. He never changes, He is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow. Through the Bible his personality is revealed to us.

We have a God who loves us so much, He sacrificed his Son for us, He reveals himself to us in His word, His mercy and grace are never poured out 1/2 measure. If you are feeling a little down today, or a lot down, praise Jesus for who He is.

Stay focused on Him through praise, prayer, and time in the word. He loves you! I am going to get another cup of coffee and get in the word right now. Have a blessd day.

Isn't that the best news, that we will see the Jesus the disciples got to hang out with! The Jesus of the Bible the same yesterday, today, for eternity. Seven pounds is a great accomplishment. I did like the old WW a little better, but still think it's the best thing around for true lifestyle changes. You go, girl! Love, Annette

Joel Rosenberg & Ezekiel 38-39

I wanted to share a little info compiled by author Joel Rosenberg concerning a few chapters from the book of Ezekiel. This has caused me to wonder since Iraq is in such a mess; if that's why it is not listed as a country which attacks Israel. Revelation 18 goes on to say: 2With a mighty voice he shouted: "Fallen! Fallen is Babylon the Great! She has become a home for demons and a haunt for every evil spirit,a haunt for every unclean and detestable bird. 3For all the nations have drunk the maddening wine of her adulteries. The kings of the earth committed adultery with her, and the merchants of the earth grew rich from her excessive luxuries." If Iraq becomes a land of such rich excesses, could it be 1 of the only major oil producers left? (This is food for thought on my part.) In a moment, I will walk you through the prophecies step-by-step. But first, let me note that the predictions found in Ezekiel chapters 36 & 37 have already come true. These are the famous ...
