Clearing Cobwebs

Haha this place is dormant. Looks like it's not gonna work out to be a lively place after all. Anyway I just wanted to share a passage I came across while reading the Daily Bread which I think it was really good and applicable to me. I think it'll apply to you as well so here goes;

In All Kinds Of Weather
READ: Acts 18:9-11
Lo, I am with you always, even to the end of the age. —Matthew 28:20

When Jesus sent His disciples out, He gave them this promise: “I am with you always, even to the end of the age” (Matt. 28:20). Literally, the word always means “all the days,” according to Greek scholars Jamieson, Fausset, and Brown.

Jesus didn’t simply say, “always,” but “all the days.” That takes into account all our various activities, the good and bad circumstances surrounding us, the varied responsibilities we have through the course of our days, the storm clouds and the sunshine.

Our Lord is present with us no matter what each day brings. It may be a day of joy or of sadness, of sickness or of health, of success or of failure. No matter what happens to us today, our Lord is walking beside us, strengthening us, loving us, filling us with faith, hope, and love. As He envelops us with quiet serenity and security, our foes, fears, afflictions, and doubts begin to recede. We can bear up in any setting and circumstance because we know the Lord is at hand, just as He told Paul in Acts 18:10, “I am with you.”

Practice God’s presence, stopping in the midst of your busy day to say to yourself, “The Lord is here.” And pray that you will see Him who is invisible—and see Him everywhere. — David H. Roper

God’s unseen presence comforts me,
I know He’s always near;
And when life’s storms besiege my soul,
He says, “My child, I’m here.” —D. De Haan

Seek the Lord while He may be found, call upon Him while He is near. —Isaiah 55:6


Hope this is helpful when you all are feeling down depressed and all kinds of stuff. God's always there waiting for us to call Him.

Hope everyone's doing fine in school or where-ever you are, holidays or not.
It's handbilling season again so let's get up and down for the distribution of it (:
Everyone should post here frequently. (Though that was really random but who cares)
Did a little revamp on the photo too haha though we don't really have a proper regional photo.
More should take up photography.
It's a good skill
Glad to see people having good responses at outreaches during net.
And at Edge
Anyway the people that visit this blog are the younger ones haha the days where we roamed the Internet whenever we could get our hands on it
As time passes the Internet loses its... attractiveness to such stuff.

Remember, "YOU are a gift from GOD!"
