Thanks Joel! If I wasn't almost 79 years old I would help you with doing the drywall you need. my body has been complaining a lot this year, but the Lord blesses me every day. Jim
Love a man who reads and lives by His word! Wish there were more Godly men in this world and we would not have somany of our issues today. My go to verses are Philipians 4:6-7. Merry CHRISTmas!
Joel, what an amazing delight to discover this channel. I've been subscribed to Gun Guy for some time and had a suspicion your were a follower of Jesus. Your study in Matthew 6 is timely. In the course of life, we all encounter tests and trials where our faith and trust in the Lord is challenged. I think of Job's 'friends', maybe 'well meaning' but lacking in the vital relationship with the Lord. I think of Noah's friends and neighbors who 'advised' him for as long as 75 years that an ark without ocean is a waste of time. When we choose to 'let our light shine before men' we expose our priorities at some risk to our public safety. But all is good, we are in His hands! In my own study over the past few days, I came across two verses in 2 Corinthians 4:8-9 (ESV) 'We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair; persecuted, but not forsaken; struck down, but not destroyed.' The words of John 16:33 bring comfort: I have said these things to you, that 'IN ME' you may have peace. In the world you will have tribulation. But take heart; I have overcome the world.' Blessings on you! Greg

Thank you, Joel.
Remember, He promises to meet our needs not our wants. He knows what we need before we even ask Him. Holding you up in prayer. God bless!
