"Be kind to one another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, as God in Christ forgave you." Ephesians 4:32 (ESV)*******JUDY HAD NOT SPOKEN TO HER sister in thirty years. One night as she asked the usual "Bless Mary Beth, " to her prayers, she sensed a clear message: That's not good enough. You need to go ask her for forgiveness. Judy felt shocked. "Ask her for forgiveness?" But she flew out to visit Mary Beth, who was in poor health. When Mary Beth said she didn't feel like she could be forgiven for the life she'd led, Jesus shared the love of Jesus and then mailed her a Bible. Two months later, Mary Beth was found dead. Nearby the Bible lay, open to psalm. ***As Judy shared her story in the Bible study, a though nagged Gayle: I've made a mistake. Gayle and her own sister had not communicated much through the years due to various reasons. Now Sandy was recovering from a stroke. Gayle drove two hours to Sandy's house and spent the evening talking. The door Opened to a close and loving relationship.***Refusing to forgive someone is like getting trapped in a maze of bitterness and resentment that stunts our spiritual growth and infects all areas of our life. Even simply neglecting a family relationship can steal our joy and peace. If we sense a prompting to take the first step toward reconciliation, it's a gift from God. Yes, we'll feel awkward or fearful reaching out, wondering if our efforts will be rebuffed. Yes, we do risk getting hurt. but Jesus will give us the ability to forgive if we ask for His help. And who knows what chain reaction of grace our obedience might set off? " --DIANNE NEAL MATTHEWS*********"FAITH STEP: Ask Jesus to reveal anyone you need to reach out to for reconciliation. Trust Him to give you the courage to take the first step and the wisdom to speak the right words." [MORNINGS WITH JESUS, A GUIDEPOSTS PUBLICATION, JULY/AUGUST 2020, VOL 6 NO 4, www.guideposts.org, 800-431-2344]*******Enjoy a blessed, healthy, safe, strong, prosperous, pleasant, happy & great Saturday today & always!

Heavenly Father, thank You for allowing me the gift of a new day, and many other chances to praise You and give You the glory You deserve.

"Whoever serves , me must follow me; and where I am, my servant also will be. My Father will honor the one who serves me." John 12:26 (NIV)*********"THE HALIBUT, PLEASE." I FOLDED the menu shut and smiled at the server. My husband and I sat at a small table, at an outdoor cafe in Mexico. "I'm sorry, we're out of halibut tonight." The waiter glanced downward before handing the menu back to me. **"We just served our last one, Senora." "Okay...the tilapia?" "No more today, Sorry." ***"What's left?" At this point, the situation seemed laughable. He bowed his shoulders and shook his head, as if at a loss for words. "I have an idea. I"m in a rut, always wanting the same things. Ask the chef to surprise me. I'm sure I'll like whatever he comes up with." Straightening, he raced back to the kitchen. When my dinner arrived, it was a feast, better than anything I could have imagined. I left more than satisfied, knowing I'd been blessed. ***Jesus often surprises me, turning my focus in a direction quite different from the one I'd planned. As I follow Him, He seasons my dreams and goals, switching them up to meet His standards. And when I serve others according to His will, even with unfamiliar tasks, I feel fulfilled, nourished from the inside out. I'm free to be what He wants me to be and my faith increases as I obey. Jesus knows what's best for me. He's never disappointed me and never will. I only need to trust in whatever He cooks up for me!" --HEIDI GAUL******"FAITH STEP: Be brace and follow a new recipe, adding spices you wouldn't usually choose.
