1 Thess 5:24-25 Faithful is he that calleth you, who also will do it.
25 Brethren, pray for us.
KJV
I wonder if this could be a project for the New Year, to list the things one prays for and then the answers that come to those prayers?

Isa 1:18 Come now, and let us reason together, saith the Lord: though your sins be as scarlet, they shall be as white as snow; though they be red like crimson, they shall be as wool.

Matt 8:27 But the men marvelled, saying, What manner of man is this, that even the winds and the sea obey him!
KJV
This is a question asked about Jesus that is recorded three times in the Bible, “What manner of man is this”? I wonder what manner of man is Jesus to you today? For many the name of Jesus is just a curse word. For others the name of Jesus in one to be thought of once each […] -

1 Thess 5:18-19 In every thing give thanks: for this is the will of God in Christ Jesus concerning you.
19 Quench not the Spirit.
KJV
“In every thing give thanks”. There are no qualifiers before or after that command. We would rather give thanks for things that please us, help us, strengthen us, build us up and so on, but that is not what the Bible says. We are to give thanks for every thing “For this is the […]
