Encouragement for Today (4/17/24)

Greetings to godly sister saints who love the Lord!

But when he saw the multitudes, he was moved with compassion on them, because they fainted, and were scattered abroad, as sheep having no shepherd. Matthew 9:36 

What a wonderful Savior, one of compassion, who came to shed His blood for the remission of sins that we should have to pay ourselves but He offers the way through Him, the GOSPEL. 

Then Simon Peter answered him, Lord, to whom shall we go? thou hast the words of eternal life.John 6:68 

We saints also, have compassion on our neighbors, sharing the truth with them and being longsuffering for those who are repentant and seeking to obey all truth.  Obviously not long suffering in sin, but to those who repent...

Jesus saith unto him, I say not unto thee, Until seven times: but, Until seventy times seven.  Matthew 18:22

Many won't repent because they can't see their sins, they're blinded even when shown.  

At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.  Matthew 11:25 

Brother Tupos and I took part of the day to reorganize and sort the van which was really satisfying.  We're very organized (you have to be in super small spaces) but it's nice to go through and redo things, see what you have and what you might need etc.  Then we traveled to a small town where we'll be through tomorrow as it's supposed to rain all day and we try hard to avoid traveling in the rain, and dark, unless necessary.  I'll show you my view (the park is on the other side of the van) and the awesome bird songs going on that we're blessed to have ears that can hear such awesome sounds.

We took a quick walk around the park before a ministry call.  

We've been in this town many, many times and have witnessed to so many people we can't remember them all. Just tonight on our walk, we gave away a couple gospel cards to a young woman and young man and we have a lot of gospel signs on the van with people driving by being able to see.  

We had free pizza from a survey so I made salad to go with it.  Simple blessings to be grateful for and not taking for granted as there may be times coming where we don't have much at all except hunger or thirst (physical) but we won't go hungry or thirsty spiritually will we, if we hold fast to Christ. 

But whosoever drinketh of the water that I shall give him shall never thirst; but the water that I shall give him shall be in him a well of water springing up into everlasting life. The woman saith unto him, Sir, give me this water, that I thirst not, neither come hither to draw. John 4:14-15 

Let us drink from the well and eat from the bread of Christ that we may be fulfilled with Him.  What a blessing that we can partake of anything good from Him.  

I hope you all have a joyous day, striving after the King of Kings and Lord of Lords. 

Love to you all, in Christ,
​Sister Aman
