Weary Not in Praying
By Karen and Amanda Tero(This is a poem that I wrote with Mom (though she was the main person who wrote it. I only contributed to the last phrase)
Are you troubled in your heart,For family or friends,Who travel through their time on earth,As if it will not end?They never quite have time for Christ,As they work and as they play.How will they ever turn about?Oh Christian, you must pray!
Praying without ceasing,Giving thanks in everything.Crying out to God on high,Our Savior and our King.His love...

Psalm 119:34-35
Psalm 119:34-35(34) Give me understanding, and I shall keep thy law; yea, I shall observe it with my whole heart.How important it is to follow God and His ways with our whole heart! Here, we are encouraged to observe (hedge about, guard, protect, attend to, etc.) God's law with our whole heart. This is not half-way piddling in God's law, but seeking, studying, and applying it - daily - to our lives."Blessed are they that keep his testimonies, and that seek him with the whole heart." (Ps...

"Though He were a Son, yet learned he obedience by the things which he suffered;" Hebrews 5:8
If Jesus learned obedience through suffering, how much more should we go through the class of suffering, that we might learn obedience!

Psalm 119:33
Psalm 119:33(33) Teach me, O LORD, the way of thy statutes; and I shall keep it unto the end.How many times are "way" and "ways" mentioned in Psalm 119?"Blessed are the undefiled in the way, who walk in the law of the Lord." (vs. 1)"They also do no iniquity: they walk in his ways." (vs. 3)"O that my ways were directed to keep thy statutes!" (vs. 5)"Wherewithal shall a young man cleanse his way? by taking heed thereto according to thy word." (vs. 9)"I have rejoiced in the way of thy testimonie...

The Valley of the Shadow of Death
It has been TOO long since I've been able to sit down and design something! I jumped at the excuse to do so when I was helping a friend (or piano-student-turned-photo-editing-student) learn Photoshop Elements and Lightroom.
Beau had taken a picture during vacation and mentioned that he thought Psalm 23:4 would go well with it. So we I decided now was as good as any to show him how to do some text editing on Elements. So, in essence, it was a joint-effort graphics-design.
Here is the origi...

"I know thy works, and thy labour, and thy patience, and how thou canst not bear them which are evil: and thou hast tried them which say they are apostles, and are not, and hast found them liars: And hast borne, and hast patience, and for my name's sake hast laboured, and hast not fainted." Revelations 2:2-3
God is not unrighteous to forget our work and labor of love shown to His Name (Hebrews 6:10). The letters to the seven churches repeats, "I know thy works." Jesus sees our every work - bot...

Psalm 119:29-32
Psalm 119:29-32(29) Remove from me the way of lying: and grant me thy law graciously.Lying - (8267 sheqer, untruth; by implication, a sham (often adverbial):)Before we understand the way of truth, the way of lying/error must be purged from us. We cannot walk in the way of lying and be living in God's law. We must step off the way of lying and walk in the way of truth. Thankfully, the Lord is there to help us change from one path to the other.
