This week’s background scripture:
Luke 12: 22-28 22 Then He said to His disciples, “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. 23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. 24 Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? 25 And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 26 If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? 27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
Are Christians exempt from problems? Of course not. We all have had some trials, some tribulations, or some adverse circumstances. I have never read that we as Christians are exempt from problems. I have never read that when you become a Christian your life situations would automatically get better. Let's face it, we have a enemy whose purpose is to kill, steal, and destroy. So, as long as we are on this earth we have to deal with our enemy but (Praise Be To God) we have been guaranteed the victory In Christ Jesus to get us through all of life's challenges! Amen!!
Today, lets do something together. Everyone, in your own way; take the time out of your day to give Our God the Praise. For every mountain He brought us over, For every trial He has seen us through, For every blessing Hallelujah!! For this we give You Praise!
One way to live without regrets is to acknowledge the blessings you already have. Thank God for your family. Thank God for Jesus! Thank God for The Blood of Jesus! Thank God for health and strength! Thank God for your family! Thank God for your job! Thank God for your cars and home. Thank God for peace and joy! Thank God for restoration and deliverance! Thank God! Praise God! Shout Hallelujah Anyhow! He is worthy to be Praised. My heart and soul cries out to You God! Oh Magnify the Name of Jesus! Exalt His Holy Name! He is Worthy!
Live! Praise! Dance! Laugh! Rejoice! In spite of what's going on in your life. In spite of how you feel. Praise Him! Praise Him! Praise Him!
If you have a voice, If you have a tongue, If you can read this, you have an obligation to Praise Our God! He has been good to You! He has blessed You! He has brought you through. He did not leave you. He did not forsake you. He has been there with you. He has given you this day to rejoice and be glad in it !
It's your choice, Praise or regrets. It's your choice, Praise or defeat. It's your choice, the victim or the Victor. I choose to Praise My God and live with no regrets.

"What's Important" "Who's Important"
This week’s background scripture:
Luke 12: 22-28 22 Then He said to His disciples, “Therefore I say to you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat; nor about the body, what you will put on. 23 Life is more than food, and the body is more than clothing. 24 Consider the ravens, for they neither sow nor reap, which have neither storehouse nor barn; and God feeds them. Of how much more value are you than the birds? 25 And which of you by worrying can add one cubit to his stature? 26 If you then are not able to do the least, why are you anxious for the rest? 27 Consider the lilies, how they grow: they neither toil nor spin; and yet I say to you, even Solomon in all his glory was not arrayed like one of these. 28 If then God so clothes the grass, which today is in the field and tomorrow is thrown into the oven, how much more will He clothe you, O you of little faith?
In your life , what is really important? Who is important in your life?
The day that my sister passed I was at work doing the business of the City of Birmingham. I did not know that a phone call would change everything for me that day. In a instance, what was important was not my job at the time. I immediately wanted to get to my mother and talk to my sister , wife and kids. I wanted to call relatives and inform them. I really wanted this to not be happening but it was. In a quick instance, what was important before my call was not important after the call. Life had just changed for me and my family.
I take this time to challenge all of us to evaluate our lives. Evaluate, “What’s Important!” “Who’s Important!’ In your answer, I believe you will find out if you are on track or not. Remember, when you leave here, your money stays. Your cars stay and your home. The only thing you take with you is you. For teaching purposes only, If you left here today, would people be angry with you? Would you be full of regret because of lost relationships with important people in your life? Would you be leaving warm, loving memories of yourself or memories of you being a hell raiser? Would you be wishing you did more for the kingdom of God? Would that car and house matter that much? The people you were angry with and you would not forgive; would it matter?
Take the time to see who and what is important in your life. It just might change your attitude and someone’s opinion of you. If you are reading this, God is giving you and I an opportunity to live without regrets and to focus on what’s really important.
