Salvation Comes From God

Psalm 2, verses 7-12

” His chosen one replies,” I will reveal the everlasting purposes of God, for the Lord has said to me,” You are my Son. This is your Coronation Day. Today I am giving you, your glory.” ” Only ask, and I will give you all the nations of the world. Rule them with an iron rod; smash them like clay pots!” V-12 Fall down before his Son and kiss his feet before his anger is roused and you perish. I am warning you—his wrath will soon begin. But oh, the joys of those who put their trust in him!” ” Amen and Amen!”

For Each Of You, Our Veterans-God’s Soldiers,The Faithful

Blackeye susans-3

The good news is upon all of us, regardless of today’s press, I know that God is on our side, Amen!!! The 3 exclamation marks mean The Father, Son and Holy Ghost, now once you see that I do not have to write it out each time, Amen !!! see how easy that is.

You probably think what is Jimmy doing with these 3 images today, 2 Black Eye Susan, cut mums in a vase and a young foal just starting life, what do they all have in common, is there a common denominator in all this? And how do Veterans fit into this type of story, why does Jimmy keep blessing the veterans, why o why? Isn’t it better to bring things to light while there is time, and if you recall what happened to Humpty Dumpty.

I have many, many friends near and far and this is possibly the beginning of one of my most important stories in a month. Abiding in God’s love and go where he calls seems easy enough, but how many of you listen and go do as the soft voice of the Lord ask of you? I guarantee will change your life for the better, trust your inner voice and the first impression is the correct one, don’t let that SOB of a negative critic jump in there, shut’em down right on the spot, and go do your first order that came to you, you’ll start to know that God is in charge once you do.

Getting back to the story at hand, you say Jimmy I do not have all day to read this long winded blog, ok take your time and spend 1 minute today and 1 minute tomorrow, however long, where are you going to be in such a hurry, but in no time you will learn and get the message, no need to rush we have all eternity, Jesus is in control of time now and for ever more and I thank God for his eternal message and while Heaven is awesome, he has asked me to come to earth to abide in love and kindness, no matter how the wind blows, and like our fellow veterans, having spent 6 years in the Army, every Veteran knows how the winds blow while serving, whew and how the wind continues to blow for our veterans. The Lord as our Commander in Chief has already paid our ransom in red blood, on the cross, so I thank you Jesus for this love to save me and all people everywhere regardless of their accepting Jesus, Jesus is still Lord over all, no exceptions, not even one.

Two Scriptures today, 1. Colossians Chapter 1, verse 12 and Jeremiah Chapter 17, verse 7.

This is easy to remember: What the Word FORGET really means”

F-faithful

O-omnipotent Father

R-Royal

G-gratitude

E-everlasting love

T-thanks Be

Now back to the 3 paintings, the Black Eye Susan, mums, and young foal. Any guesses, probably a few?

Like the human race we are sort of in the fall or autumn of and moving toward winter. The Black Eye Susan common wildflower gracing our fields in late summer has the very deep purples and yellow, there are 2 of them. In the mums there are 3 white blossoms in a green vase and the young foal having been just born in the spring in May reminds me that new life continues to come faithfully not listen to the critic, who would try to convince there is no reason, since everything eventually dies, but remember this is the Lord’s Earth, that he created and everything in the air, water and earth and we are to celebrate his gift of life, to live abundantly and when things get tough, I defer immediately to Jesus and in his name all is possible.

The first painting 2 flowers the second painting 3 flowers so that is 23, and Psalm 23 comes to mind, and the foal with 4 legs reminds me of all living things are possible because of, 3 in 1-!!! and every living thing is connected to !!! making 4 in 1, hence the 4 legs that hold the grown horse to the earth are possible because of God.

May everyone have peace and love, and If I can paint for you speak up, I love to work.

Marriage Is About Truth

Since time began and as we leaned about Adam and Eve, truth is one of the cornerstones God is teaching us, he teaches us many lessons. We all know about speaking a little white lie or not coming clean when speaking to our spouse. Why? What prompts us to fudge with the one we love? Our word is important and what we say to our spouse matters. It all gets back to being a trusting and loving spouse. In Proverbs 6 Jesus shares the seven things God hates, and two of them relate to lying, so for me just saying like it is be right up front is ok, respect and understanding come from a communication that is built of truth. Love is marrying that person, consistently doing what is best for him or her, and staying faithful for the rest of your life.

The wildlife animals and the wild kingdom are true and faithful, they abide by God’s laws too or they would perish. Next year my sons Norm and Chris and Me are going elk hunting, in the rugged mountains, no luxury or electricity, just horses, no other people other than our hunting camp and so we will be in what I can say is the ” wilderness ” our whole way for that week is based on God and his majesty in all things and our very existence depends on listening to God. Keep posted and bless everyone you know and remember a stranger is only a friend you have not met yet. God speed and peace be yours. Most of all best wishes and may love abide.

“Praise Our God”

“All you His Servants and those who fear Him, both small and great!”

It wasn’t that long ago I was working at 3M and for 35 years, I love this company and so many wonderful people, putting on their garb, hats of work, so to speak and make their daily bread. And The Nation and 3M Company and the people prosper, not because they are clever or know how to make widgets that outsmart the competition, but WilliamMcKnight was a man of God and he cared for his people and his company in a way that was very different from the authority approach of earlier years of Industry in America. McKnight was a man of vision and loved the Lord and when you are a part of a company like 3M for close to 40 years and still ticking there is a lot of good happening and money is not the actual goal, but the result of abiding by God’s law and God is the provider, not us, we are his people and doing his work.

Have a great day 3M and you continue to bear fruit by your actions and God Bless all the people who make 3M the company that so many have come to love. The 3M Brand is for the people, by the people of the people.

I want to say a pray for you and for my friend David who is a veteran and now in the VA hospital, a courageous man, loving, kind and compassionate man, not too much different from all you men at 3M, just for a moment, give pause and share your love with the Hueper family. I’ll be going to the VA Hospital Today, and if any of you want to come you come, the room is small but there is plenty of room to gather by his side.

This painting is for all of you at 3M and is a special day, the Fall Harvest and this is a day of Thanksgiving to each of you, may you enjoy your work and Know that God love you. Peace. Jimmy Springett-wildlife painter
