Philem 1 Paul, a prisoner of Jesus Christ, and Timothy our brother, unto Philemon our dearly beloved, and fellowlabourer,

Phil 4:10-13 But I rejoiced in the Lord greatly, that now at the last your care of me hath flourished again; wherein ye were also careful, but ye lacked opportunity.
11 Not that I speak in respect of want: for I have learned, in whatsoever state I am, therewith to be content.
12 I know both how to be abased, and I know how to abound: every where and in all things I am instructed both to be full and […] -

Deut 33:27 The eternal God is thy refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms: and he shall thrust out the enemy from before thee; and shall say, Destroy them.
KJV
A dear saint of God asked me many years ago to use the above verse as a text for their funeral which I did of course. What a tremendous truth, the eternal God is our refuge. I continue to see the disappointment and discouragement in believers in Christ over this […] -

That includes the things that we do not understand, the things […] -

KJV
I have become very distressed and discouraged as I watched the returns of this election come in over the night. How can a self proclaimed Godly nation vote in an ungodly way? Yet there should be no trouble in my heart or yours because our God is still in control. Does that mean God knows what this outcome will be and God will […] -

KJV
This verse has absolutely nothing to do with the election today but I use it to make this application, God is still in control. I pray today as I have been for our President to be given another four years but I also know that […]
