Gospel of Peace


Therefore take up the whole armor of God, that you may be able to withstand in  the evil day, and having done all, to stand firm. Stand therefore, having fastened on the belt of truth, and having put on the breastplate of righteousness, and, as shoes for your feet, having put on the readiness given by the gospel of peace. 

In all circumstances take up the shield of faith, with which you can extinguish all the flaming darts of the evil one; and take the helmet of salvation, and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God, praying at all times in the Spirit, with all prayer and supplication.

Ephesians 6:13-18a

Water


...but whoever 
drinks the water 
I give them 
will never thirst. 
Indeed, 
the water I 
give them 
will become 
in them 
a spring of water 
welling up 
to eternal life.





Thanks

Thunderstorms
not really thunderstorms
Heroes
villains who became heroes
hearts turned
An Avalanche of Blessings




What are you thankful for?
