Sometimes it is just better to listen to a book than to read it. Do you have friends who prefer listening to reading? If so, let them know these treasures are available.

I read the following quote which was posted on The Drudge Report on May 30, 2018.

The entire time I read this chapter and listened to the video on the baptism in the Holy Spirit and the gift of speaking in tongues, I kept thinking back to when my son Sean and I received the baptism of the Spirit and spoke in tongues.

God speaking in Eric's journaling: Ask My people to look up! Exhort them to engage the eyes of their spirits and see what I AM doing!

God tells us how to take His Word as medicine - Hebrew meanings inserted below

LaWanda – ♪♪ “Who is like you Lord in all the earth?  Matchless beauty, endless worth.  Nothing in this world will satisfy.  Jesus you’re the cup that won’t run dry. O Jesus, O Jesus, your presence is heaven to me. O Jesus, O Jesus, your presence is heaven to me.” ♪♪   Thank you, Jesus, that you ARE the  cup that won’t run dry.

But to me it is a very small thing that I may be examined by you, or by any human court; in fact, I do not even examine myself. For I am conscious of nothing against myself, yet I am not by this acquitted; but the one who examines me is the Lord. Therefore do not go on passing judgment before the time, but wait until the Lord comes who will both bring to light the things hidden in the darkness and disclose the motives of men's hearts; and then each man's praise will come to him from God (1 Cor. 4:3-5).

I love the Christmas season. This month, we have done Christmas sing-alongs for two events, and on Christmas Eve, we will be conducting a sing-along on our front porch for our neighbors. I love Christmas songs and carols. I live about 500 meters from my local United Church, and I am reminded that since 1826, people have been singing these same Christmas carols on Christmas Eve every year since then. There is an intimacy with God, I feel, knowing that so many people who came before me worshiped at the same time in the same place, singing the same songs.

Linda: I love you, Lord. Thank You for the rain today. Thank You for the greens in the garden. You blessed our garden this year so that we had plenty to can, and some to share.

Question: I listened to your health videos and really enjoyed them. What is your perspective on 1 Timothy 4:3-5, which states that all creatures created by God are good for us? I find there is still a controversy among naturopathic doctors about pork and seafood being okay to eat.
