The Good Silence is a Beautiful Word … By Karen Rowe

Greetings Dear Readers of FGGAM as we go to the Devotion of The Day,

This is a good devotion for me, because I need to learn to listen more.  I need to be trained more and more in the area of “knee-jerk” reactions.  Friends, if we can come to the understanding that people are not trying to hurt us, we will never be the same!  People are dealing with something that we / they just don’t know how to handle.  YET!

The Good News is, God does!  And, God loves us enough to Help us!  Thank you Jesus!  If I get this, I will personally never be the same!  I hope this is a blessing to you too!

I love FGGAM!  Not because I get to write here, but because I get to take time to be still and listen to God here.  I get the opportunity to devote my day to the Lord and I share because I believe that in this world, we practice the wrong type of silence!

Thank you Jesus for this!  We need to get back to the basics of the Truth.  Don’t deny the Truth, but to confess our faults to each other and pray for each other, so that we can help each other, by the same help we ourselves have received from the the same Comforts and Mercies of God!

As we go through this life, I am thankful that My Daily Motto is:   “I don’t have it all figured out, BUT God does, Follow Jesus.”  The Holy Spirit Helps!

I hope you are encouraged in the love of God through your time here today!  Love ~ K

Daily Devotion to God’s Holy Word

Silence is a Beautiful Word … By Karen Rowe

I believe the only way to hold our tongue is to train our mind!

Think about the 1st thing you want to say…in any situation.

Will I honor God with my words?
Will I help this person?

Words are powerful…Can you disagree?

Have you ever been lifted up in your day by something some said to you …perhaps in the very area that no on but you & God knew you were feeling all alone in? H o w about this. Have you ever been hurt by something someone said, EVEN IF it was not true about you? AND, sometimes the truth may even feel like a cattle prod, BUT If we get this we will never be the same!

Silence is golden & full of opportunities to listen to God & also to give others time to speak. Many times I try to stoKe the person, especially my family to tell me what is wrong. BUT when I am silent, that is when they feel FREE to talk to me about what is on their mind.

Both hot tempered, but growing to be trained in the Holy Spirit, I am learning to be careful of what I say. My husband tried to tell me for years, “Karen, Don’t say something that you will have to say you are sorry for later.”

Like the Devotion said yesterday, “Create in me a new heart…” We need God to Create in us a New Attitude on life’s troubles & even excitements!

What about you? Will you take some time that you don’t have TO BE silent in the Presence of the Lord? To fill up with His Goodness, Patience & Wisdom? TO BE prepared with all you need TO remain IN Peace…when your life in this world becomes attacked?

Remember who you are to God!
Rest in your Faith!
SEEK GOD 1st & all these things WILL BE ADDED, like Self-Control!

We are writing our story, what would you like to read about yours?

Me- I hope people see an imperfect me, who is growing into a precious jewel by the Grace of God. A Jewel is made by pressure in silence to become transformed…

Today, If you have something to say, Repent. Pray. Praise. Encourage. Show God how grateful you are for His Son!  And, LOVE!

All for Jesus!

How was this for you? Jesus is blessing me & there goes that Train Whistle again…

The one who guards his mouth protects his life; the one who opens his lips invites his own ruin.
Proverbs 13:3 HCSB

TILL NEXT TIME!

TILL NEXT TIME!  “GRACE AND PEACE TO YOU FROM GOD OUR FATHER AND THE LORD JESUS CHRIST.”

The address in the Bible is found in 2 Corinthians 1:2, and this is the NIV today.

 

LOVE IN CHRIST,

Meet Karen: Hi, I am blessed, by God's good grace and because I know Jesus, I am blessed. I choose to be blessed, because I have a choice set before me and I refuse to look down. I trust God and I know and believe in the love God has for us. I have overcome difficulties; and I am blessed by the grace of God alone. If I have written about it, then I have felt the pain of it in some way, and to some degree. Did you know that Jesus has felt your pain? This is why I write. By God's grace I can identify; and tell you honestly, yes there is hope in anything and everything that you are facing today! Jesus is our Hope! He is the Truth, the Way and the Life. I am married a wonderful man, Robert Rowe; I love my husband and he loves me; and we have been married for 28 years. Together, we have been blessed with a wonderful daughter, named Amanda who is college now; and a wonderful son, named Daniel who is growing up well and soon to graduate elementary school. We work together and by God's grace we run our own business called PSI. We have a pastor over our ministry and over our business and also we depend on him for advise in our family. We have 2 dogs, 4 horses, 2 cats and love to spend time outdoors by the water and by campfires ... that is it seems when we can find time away from life's busy schedule. I love to write because it helps me learn more about God. And, I am driven by a passion from a love that God has put in my heart to share from my experiences and struggles, as I gain understanding in God’s Word to know how effective and powerful God is over our every situation! I share with you so you can know that you are not alone in your struggles. The same God who helps me and my family, is your help and shield as well! Life is not always easy, but it is possible –I like to share the difference that following Jesus makes in my life. And, I love to share God's patience and mercy and love that is with me! I am not perfect, but am experiencing God sanctify me through and through with every mistake I make; and yes, overcome in Christ! Life is not just about the successes; life on this earth is also about the troubles we overcome to discover what God has hidden in our faith to find! Troubles are more a challenge to grow in our faith ... It is not easy, but in the end the grace of God we discover is worth experiencing God in the midst. By Grace, I have discovered Jesus is Peace and He is my Joy and Wisdom from Heaven. God is our Provider and Healer and Creator, who is our help and shield over all things. By grace, I have experienced a nearness to God through my faith in His Son! We are well forgiven by God; and well blessed when we know and believe the love that God has for us. To say, "all is well with my soul" is a powerful knowledge to understand and experience. I sense God's desire for you to know His love for you and how deep His love for you is that He has SO loved you; God gave you His Son. God loves you right now just as you are! There is so much to learn! I believe that as we learn from God, we are God’s gift to each other. It is all God’s story –and for His glory; and God has SO loved us. I love to paint the vision that God has given me about a Father’s love –that God wants you to dream again and visualize His love for you! In God’s eyes, there’s more to life than we see; and in a world that sometimes misrepresents and misunderstands God and love; God wants you to have the courage to dream His dream and see His vision of a Father’s love for you! Many years ago, I prayed to God, “How can I tell a million people what I know about Your Son?” God showed me I had a gift of a ministry about God's Love; and He called it Hope in Today! I write to please God and I write to encourage you; and I write to spend quiet time with God. All because of this love that God has first shown me! I need Jesus –and my life is about my relationship with God. And, every blessing begins with Him! Love in Christ, Karen Rowe, Director Hope in Today Ministries, Inc.
