  So much suffering... yet God is good Even though God is good it does not stop the suffering in the world.  Humans are responsible for their own actions.  The killing of innocent lives? It is not God.  Abortions? It is not God.  The world dying of hunger and wars? It is not God.  God is all good, but just.  There is one in this world, the Bible says: Steals, kills and destroy...We must blame him. Satan, the devil.  He divides to conquer, he is smart but not as powerful as God.  God has given him until a certain time and then there will be a judgment on him and all his followers.  Sufferings also come on those who although may look to be innocent are doing evil.  God knows what is in the heart of every man and woman.  If you are evil, be warned that your days are also numbered.  You are not as innocent as you may think or anyone else for that matter. If you have never heard of repentance, here it is...It is being truly sorry for your sin or evil ways and refuse strongly to do them. Thr

 Do not assume Due to circumstances this post might be shorter than others. My mother passed away on Sunday.  It was to be expected since she had dementia and she was rapidly deteriorating. But in that light, I had like to warn you about not assuming that you are always right in your views, particularly of God. Right he is a loving God and he also is a just God.  He wrote the Book of life not you. Don't assume that your views are going to match his Book, the Gospels. The simple Gospel is this: Jesus died on the Cross for our sin and then he rose from the dead on the third day. He is the Son of God. If we confess that he is we have eternal life, Many people today have sketched their own god and truly believe that this will give them entrance to Heaven.  Not so! Your beliefs have to live up with what the Gospels presents in the light of who Jesus Christ is. Thank you for your participation. For coming back on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. You are the best. I am Bernard and love

  In God’s Strength Luke 4:1-15 During his 40 days fast, Jesus was tempted by the devil himself.  It is not something to take too lightly.  A short fast can be challenging for most people, never mind a 40 days’ fast.  For Jesus coming in his humanity and going through these temptations as a human being it must have been very challenging.  Like ourselves when faced with temptations his only weapon was the Word of God.  All the Scriptures he chose against his enemy were out of Deuteronomy.  When it came to Satan making the offer and suggesting that he turned the rocks into loaves of bread, it was real, and I am sure that the temptation to do so would have been strong enough to sent desires to his brain. This was a real battle for Jesus fighting a real desire.  Have you ever attempted a fast?   Mostly, what I see through this passage is that Jesus did it in the power of the Holy Spirit.   He didn’t do it in his own human strength.   He had to lay down self and operate in the power
