T.O.D.A.Y.'S ENCOURAGEMENT for Oct. 29, 2007
T.O.D.A.Y.

14745 Merrilltown #1611 Austin TX 78728 Good Morning!
I
am so happy to be back with all of you guys and gals, and my "time
off" was exactly what I needed to be refreshed and ready to go again.
Sometimes, we all need that time of just waiting on The Lord and allowing Him
to "re-charge" our batteries! Amen?
I am going to continue
sharing with you about making a decision to take God at His Word, and choosing
to BELIEVE Him. I don't know everything, but this one thing I DO
know . . . The Lord will keep His Word! However, we have to
BELIEVE it in order to RECEIVE it! Another thing I know is this ~~~~~ I
know in whom I have believed and I am fully persuaded that He is able to keep
that which I have committed unto Him! This is what the Apostle Paul said
to Timothy, and it is what Luanne says to anyone and everyone that
will listen!
 Because it is real
to me!! You can find this verse in 2 Timothy 1:12 and it is also
included in a Hymn that I sang numerous times in the church that I
attended for so many years. However, at that time . . . it was just
words on a page in a Hymnal. Then one day, I came to really "know"
The Lord (became intimately acquainted with Him)! I had
accepted Jesus as my Savior at a very young age, but did not really KNOW
Him the way that I do now! So, that "verse" really did
not have an effect on my life. I was just happy to be
"performing" in the church choir!  Hold
on a sec . . . before you "stone" me, think about it! Have you
ever sang a Hymn or read a verse of scripture and did not really stop and
think about what you were singing or reading! Hummm . . . moving
right along ~~~~
I have said all that, to
say this (again) . . . I KNOW IN WHOM I HAVE BELIEVED AND I AM FULLY PERSUADED
THAT HE IS ABLE TO KEEP THAT WHICH I HAVE COMMITTED UNTO HIM! For me,
this is no longer just "words" written on paper . . . it is the
"truth" that is written on my heart! I have used this
scripture today because I want to expound on it in my next
Encouragement. I will be doing that on Wednesday . . . see you
then!
