Baker's Dozen #4 - FLOWERS

BakersDozenFlowers

Baker's Dozen #4 - FLOWERS

This is the fourth post in my 2024 series celebrating the 13th year of "God's Growing Garden".  The term "baker's dozen" comes from medieval England where there were strict laws about the price of bread/wheat.  If a baker was caught cheating on the size of bread they would be fined or even punished physically.  To make sure that punishment never happened bakers started adding an extra baked good in with each customer's order. 

Once or twice a month I will post in this series.  I will choose a topic and then share 13 previously published posts on that chosen topic.

Today's topic:
FLOWERS

ENJOY!

God's Power Within Us #7 - THE POWER OF LIFE & PEACE

SundayPower7

God's Power Within Us #7 - The Power of Life & Peace

Today we continue learning about God's Power within us.  God's Word is full of passages talking about His power and showing us that we have nonstop access to His strength every second of every day.

Today we will be focusing on Romans 8:3-11

Remember, Jesus said that we (Spirit filled Christians) are able to perform all of the miraculous works that Jesus did when He was here in human form.  Actually, Jesus said that we would do EVEN GREATER than what He did (see Scripture passage below).

SundayPower


John 14:12-14 also shows us how powerful the name of Jesus Christ is:  "If you ask anything in My name".  (It is important to note that these miracles must glorify our Heavenly Father).

I usually write a "Power" post on the last Sunday of every month but I missed one last month because of the holiday.

Below is the featured "power" passage for April:

Romans 8:3-11

The Law was POWERLESS.  Jesus Christ's sacrifice and resurrection filled us with LIFE & PEACE!
(see Scripture passage below)

SundayPower7b

When we are filled with the Holy Spirit He fills our mind.  When our minds are full of Jesus, then our thoughts are full of life and peace - and our actions automatically follow.  A peace filled mind creates positive actions and an abundant life (see Bible verses below).


SundayPower7c

Notice the word "hostile" in the Scripture above.  It always makes it easier to understand when we look at the definition.

Hostile - openly opposing or resisting, unfriendly.

Isn't that the truth! - before being filled with the Holy Spirit our sinful nature was always running from God and doing the exact opposite of what He asked or planned.



SundayPower7a


It is as if we have been resurrected with Jesus Christ because His Spirit lives in us.  Our old personality is dead and our new self in Christ is alive and full of peace.

Peace is so much more powerful than turmoil. 
Death is fear but LIFE is PEACE!

Fun Fridays #56 - TAX DAY

by Angie Ouellette-Tower for http://www.godsgrowinggarden.com/ photo DSCF7791_zpsl7swvr3u.jpg

Fun Fridays #56 - TAX DAY

Happiness and laughter are so good for our health!
"A happy heart makes the face cheerful" Proverbs 15:13
(click HERE to read the health benefits of laughter)

This is a series called:  "Fun Fridays".  I used to post on the first Friday of every month (sharing with you an old photo or something from the recent past that made me happy;  in hopes that it will at least make you smile 😊), but now I post a couple times a year.


unnamed (59)


Since Tax Day is Monday I thought I'd share the key to easy tax preparation - help from this character - haha.  
(My cat "Friskie")

ENJOY!
