ANA's Birthday VERSE -- PROVERBS 1:8

Ana, my friend and co-worker has three grandchildren --

Camila...

Monce...

and Melani --
who are the precious apples of her eye.

Align Left PROVERBIOS 1:18 -- Hijo mio, escucha las correcciones de tu padre y no abandones las esenanzas de tu madre. (Listen, my son, to your father's instruction and do not forsake your mother's teaching.)

ANA's PROVERBS 1:8

From the Ten Commandments of GOD, it is written:

Honor your father and your mother, as the LORD your GOD has commanded you, so that you may live long and that it may go well with you in the land the LORD your GOD is giving you. (Deuteronomy 5:16, Exodus 20:12)

KEDID's JOY -- Nehemiah 8:10

Do not sorrow for the joy of the LORD is your strength.
(Nehemiah 8:10b)

Happiness is fleeting, dependent upon circumstance...
but the joy of the LORD is like an effervescent
rainbowed bubble that just won't burst,

no matter the circumstance in life,
for true JOY is found only upon the ROCK of Ages.

His holy name is "J" --


E...S...U...S.

True JOY is loving JESUS first --

The CHRIST rules surpreme in our affections.

Next -- loving others.
It truly is more blessed to give than to receive...
and to love others before ourselves.

Last -- loving yourself.

JESUS, Others, Yourself --

the JOY of loving this WAY fulfills the Law and Prophets.

GOD is LOVE.

He who does not love does not know GOD, for GOD is love. (1 John 4:8)

In this the love of GOD was manifested toward us, that GOD has sent His only begotten Son into the world, that we might live through Him. (1 John 4:9)

In this is love, not that we loved GOD, but that He loved us and sent His Son to be the propitiation for our sins. (1 John 4:10)

KEDID's JOY -- NEHEMIAH 8:10

Kathy's JAMES 2:18

What does it profit, my brethren, if someone says he has faith but does not have works? Can faith save him?

If a brother or sister is naked and destitute of daily food, and one of you says to them, "Depart in peace, be warmed and filled," but you do not give them the things which are needed for the body, what does it profit?

Thus also faith by itself, if it does not have works, is dead.
But someone will say, "You have faith, and I have works." Show me your faith without your works, and I will show you my faith by my works.

But do you want to know, O foolish man, that faith without works is dead? For as the body without the spirit is dead, so faith without works is dead also. (James 2:14-18, 20, 26)
