Sunday Scripture Blessings Link Up 7 14 19

As I'm re-reading the Bible slowly, I am in Exodus as well as reading the New Testament in my Daily Wisdom for Women Day Devotional Bible. Reading the Law: Master and Servant Exodus 21, had to make a note that it really seems harsh. Some servants warranted to be free after seven years, but seems if they didn't pay particular attention to their P's 'n Q's (as we say), they never attained freedom. It seemed strange to me that Moses led the people out of Egypt to freedom, but for some they were still slaves only now to one another. Is why some parts of the Bible, I need to dig further to understand. The Law: Injuries to the Person seemed fair.

My post: with God we are all the same who accept him was my thought on Matthew 20:1-19. The parable Jesus tells of the kingdom of heaven is like unto a man that is an householder which went out early in the morning to hire labourers into his vineyard. Some were hired early in the day for a penny a day, some were hired later in the day for a penny a day. Some worked more hours but at the end of the day, they all attained the same reward - a penny for the day.
Matthew 20:14 Take that thine is, and go thy way: I will give unto this last, even as unto thee.
So no matter when we accept the love of Jesus into our heart, we are all the same to him. 💖

I hope all will have a good week ahead, and a great Sunday. 😃

Sunday Scripture Blessings Link Up 7 7 19

As we celebrated Independence Day this week, I have to reflect on all the glory that God has actually given to America. Even with its faults, I still think it is a great place to live. We can't all be the upper echelon, but even though I came from a broken home, a single mom, I realize it all could have been worse. On her death bed, I thanked her for not abandoning me before or after my birth. I think God was definitely leading her when my dad was just not a dad, and left her alone with me and my sisters. She was broke, no place to live, but God provided, and I had a very happy childhood. We are planted where we are, and on our paths in life. They cannot all be clones of one another. I thank God this week of celebrations that he planted me in America, and is continuing to teach me.

God has now chosen to put me on a path without the love of my life, and on an alone path, but he is still leading my way. I grumble at times at him on the lonely days, but I know it all could be worse, and I pray this day for those who do have it much worse. I say God Bless to those on a lonely path, on a broken path, on a young path, and also to those who are on a path with much more than others. I celebrate their successes. God will lead one foot at a time, one step at a time. He is leading me on my new path without my husband, I'm learning to deal, but there are times that I do rail because I wanted more time, but it could not be. This week of Independence is two months since my best friend had to go.

I hope everyone had a good and safe week if they celebrated July 4th. I have a selfish prayer that this rain will slow down for a bit. We have had rain month after month and so much flooding. It is time for a break. Prayers for those in the hardest hit areas.

Now on to Sunday Scripture sharing, and thank you always for visiting Peabea Scribbles.

Pictorial Tuesday Link Up 7 2 19

from the Hydrangea bush that is growing at my son and dil's house. They are so pretty.

I made a butterfly embellishment that I cut out using Adobe Photoshop from the middle of the flower. So easy to make cut outs with that program of things and then save them as a .png file for use in other photos. Sharing my butterfly below if you would like one. :) Feel free to use it however you like in your photos or digital graphics. No credit back needed, but welcome if you do. Just right click on the photo with your mouse and save as your own.

You can always resize it to however you like once you've added it to your photo, etc.

Also, needed a present for a baby shower, and I never like to buy the tissue paper, etc. to add to a bag that I'm placing a present in so I just make a bag topper. So easy. I just use my photo program and copy the design of the bag, and then using a regular 8.5 by 11 sheet of cardstock, I put the scan of the design on one half of the cardstock right side up, and then upside down on the other half. Then you can fold the sheet of cardstock in half and the design will show correctly on both sides of the cardstock. Just cut a slit to insert the cord or ribbon that is already on the bag and you have a topper without having to cover the present. It's now my original idea so if want better description, think I found it on YouTube.

Now on to your sharing this first Tuesday in July. The rain seems to have tapered off, but now we are extremely hot. Near the 100's over the week-end.

Have a Happy and Safe 4th of July and a safe and great week ahead.

Studying in the book of Exodus and the story of Moses and Aaron who led the people out of Egypt. Above scripture is part of the song that Moses and the children of Israel sang once they were let go.

Thank you for visiting this last Sunday in June and sharing a scripture blessing.

Sunday Scripture Blessings 6 23 19 Link Up

Hello, and Happy Sunday. Trying again since think things may be resolved with inlinkz link up.

And the story of Moses leading God's people out of Egypt begins.

Exodus 3:13-14
And Moses said unto God, Behold, when I come unto the children of Israel, and shall say unto them, The God of your fathers hath sent me unto you; and they shall say to me, What is his name? what shall I say unto them? and God said unto Moses, I AM THAT I AM, and he said, Thus shalt thou say unto the children of Israel, I AM hath sent me unto you.

As I read in the book of Exodus, I have always wondered, Why? God hardens Pharaoh's heart, why would he do that?

I counted twelve plagues that God sent on the Pharaoh and his people, and each time God hardened the heart of Pharaoh so that he did not let the people go.

1 Rod turned to a serpent
2 Waters turned to blood
3 Frogs everywhere
4 Lice
5 Flies
6 Cattle died
7 Boils
8 Pestilence
9 Hail
10 Locusts
11 Complete darkness
12 Death to all firstborn of the Pharaoh and his people

Each time though, God saved the people of Israel from suffering any of those plagues.

This time reading through this story, it dawned on me that had Pharaoh bent to Moses and said, "Okay, your people can go." What would really be the lesson in all this? Of course God knew that if he didn't hardened Pharaoh's heart, then there would be no lesson learned. God knew he had to show Pharaoh that he is the LORD. Pharaoh, each time, tried to have his Wise men and sorcerers compete and do the same, but they could not compete with the plagues that God sent.

Exodus 5: 2
And Pharaoh said, Who is the LORD, that I should obey his voice to let Israel go.

Or at least that's my take on this scripture in reading it this time around.

I appreciate all who have stopped by each week to visit and share. Thank you.

Sunday Scripture Blessing 6 16 19

Jesus, such a smart man as he walked the earth. Sometimes the way we perceive things is not always how it should be. Eating with unclean hands, as Jesus explained, did not mean we would put dirt into our mouths which would then defile us. I am one who does always wash their hands, but I'm sure there are cases of people who are so starved that they will eat just about anything, anywhere, and with unclean hands. That does not the man make.....however, if his heart is unclean with bad thoughts, bad wishes for others or just plain evil, then he is defiled. So, with that thinking, it is sad that some are homeless, baths are not readily available nor is hand washing so if they are handed something to eat, and their hands are not clean, they do not defile themselves? Same with how someone might look at someone more unfortunate than themselves. If they eat with dirty hands because they have no choice, but the one who thinks badly of them, of these two, which is defiled? A rule or law can be good in one circumstance, but should not be followed in other circumstances. Jesus wanted us to allow for times when; is it really necessary to hold fast to thinking that is not that important?

Hope all have a Blessed Sunday. Thanks for visiting.

Sunday Scripture Blessings 6 9 19

Psalm 22:9-21

But thou art he that took me out of the womb: thou didst make me hope when I was upon my mother's breasts. I was cast upon thee from the womb: thou art my God from my mother's belly. Be not far from me; for trouble is near; for there is none to help. Many bulls have compassed me; strong bulls of Bashan have beset me round. They gaped upon me with their mouths, as a ravening and a roaring lion. I am poured out like water, and all my bones are out of joint: my heart is like wax; it is melted in the midst of my bowels. My strength is dried up like a potsherd; and my tongue cleaveth to my jaws; and thou hast brought me into the dust of death. For dogs have compassed me; the assembly of the wicked have inclosed me; they pierced by hands and my feet. I may tell all my bones; they look and stare upon me. They part my garments among them, and cast lots upon my vesture. But be not thou far from me, O LORD: O my strength, haste thee to help me. Deliver my soul from the sword: for thou hast heard me from the horns of the unicorns.

Was this a song of Jesus to come?

I'm sorry as there is no link up. I totally give up on @InLinkz. I have an account, but it won't let me in, and says that I don't have one. Each week, it is something new with them. I hope you will continue to stop by and say hi on Sundays.

Sunday Scripture Blessings Link Up 6 2 19

PEACE
HOPE
LOVE
STRENGTH
BLESSINGS

Just a few of the many promises that God gives. How empty lives would be if there is no peace or calmness within us, no hope of things to come, but just the mundane. And of course love....we all love, love; to feel love - to be loved - and a good feeling when we share love. Without strength, how would we carry on day after day. But the God who created us, knew we need these as well as so many other promises. He is an awesome God.

Happy June and my prayer is that June blesses you. Thanks for stopping by, and linking up or just saying hello in the comment section. Have a great Sunday and week ahead.

NOTE: With this version of InLinkz, there are ads, but instead of on the page, they are as a link up so just letting you know in case you don't want to click on those. Should be able to tell which is an ad.
