WHO IS YOUR HERO OR ROLE MODEL?

JESUS is, of course, our Primary Hero and Role Model. Secondary ones might include a Biblical Character, Historical Figure, Family Member, or even a Literary Character. Who has been a Beacon of Light, a Ray of Hope, or an Inspiration to you?

Who invested him or herself in your Life? Who has filled a Critical Role for You? We all need someone we can look up to and learn from. Give this some thought Today, because such people will nudge you toward God's Best For Your Life.

WHO'S YOUR INSPIRATION?

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Take a moment to think about one of your Heroes or Role Models. Is it a Parent, Sibling, Grandparent, Mentor, Teacher, Pastor, Missionary, Benefactor, Counselor, Coach, or Doctor? Have you ever cut out a Newspaper Article on a Local Hero you admire? Have you learned a Great Deal by studying the Life of the Apostle Peter, Eleanor Roosevelt, General Patton, or Don Quixote?

Or, have you learned about Courage from a terminally ill Friend? We must Embrace Life's Lessons through Pain to find Real Peace, Freedom, and Truth.

*I have learned that we Make our Plans, but that GOD Directs our Steps. I also know that his way and timing are Perfect, and that he wastes Nothing. I have Encountered Truth ~ JESUS CHRIST. That Relationship has Challenged me, Changed me, and continues to bring me New Life as I Surrender Daily to Him.*

**Real Heroes and Role Models are ordinary People, who have developed Character that has taught them to Obey Christ. Their choice to follow GOD'S Principles and Listen to his Spirit is Life ~ Giving to those they are sent to Serve.**
Daniel was a Hero
Daniel faced lions rather than bowing to a King whom others adored as a GOD.
Read Daniel 6:1-28. Do you tend to hang around People who are this Bold and Daring for the LORD? What might such Role Models inspire you to do?
SCRIPTURE TO PONDER
Therefore, since we have a Great High Priest who has gone
through the Heavens, JESUS the Son of GOD, let us hold firmly
to the Faith we Profess. (Hebrews 4:14)

~ STRENGTH FOR YOUR DAY ~

* WE SHALL PRAISE YOU *

Lord Jesus Christ
You said:
May they all be one, just as, Father,
You are in Me and I am in You,
So that the World may Believe
It was You who sent Me.

Dear Lord, bring together in Love and
Peace all who Believe in You . . .

Amen

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

All shall be Amen and Alleluia.
We shall Rest and we shall See.
We shall Know and we shall Love.
We shall Love and we shall Praise.
Behold our End that is no End . . .

Amen

<><><><><><><><><><><><><><><>

Lord, Enlighten us to see the Beam that is in our own eye, and blind us to the mote that is in our Brother's. Blind us to the Offenses of our Beloved, Cleanse them from our Memories, take them out of our Mouths for ever . . .

Amen

~ SEEKING GOD'S LOVE ~

Worship God in Adoring Embrace, Celebrate in Trembling Awe . . .

None of the good Promises the LORD had made to the House of Israel failed. Everything was Fulfilled . . .

DEEP ROOTS
They are strong, like a tree planted by a River.
The tree produces fruit in season, and its leaves
don't die. Everything they do will Succeed.
PSALM 1:3 NCV
Looking for Peace in the Psalms is not a random choice on your part. There's a reason you've come here. Perhaps you're seeking understanding in a difficult situation. Or maybe you don't know where else to turn. Either way, you're looking in the right place ~ the only place Peace can be found: in God. You'll always find God in his Word.
Like River Waters nourishing a tree's Roots, when you drink in God's Word, it goes deep into your Heart and makes you Strong. God's Nurturing Truth gives you the Courage and Wisdom for whatever you're Facing.
So Seek Him ~ allow his Word to take Root deep in your Heart. You'll be sure to find the Peace you're looking for.
God, I know that I haven't come here by chance.
Thank You that the Psalms will Strengthen my Heart
and Nourish my Soul.
Delight in doing everything the LORD wants;
Day and Night . . . think about his Law.
~ AMEN ~
