Do you realize that ucountable numbers of people are anxious to
Please the Crowd instead of God?
We all know that there are people who are "born dictators" and others are "attention seekers"...
When in a position of authority they do not consider anyone's feelings... Some Governments strive to please the people despite the millions who are hurt in the process... Others cause pain and suffering because of obstinacy and a self-centred attitude, and then you realise that this is because they do not know God.
Pontius Pilate wanted to please the people. So he freed Barabbas
for them. And Pilate told the soldiers to beat Jesus with
whips. Then Pilate gave Jesus to the soldiers to be killed on
a cross. Pilate knew that Jesus was innocent and yet he ignored this fact because he was trying to please the people!
-- Mark 15:15 (ERV)
Pilate knows Jesus is innocent, yet gives in totally to the wishes of
the mob -- he first has Jesus scourged ("flogged with a lead-tipped
whip") and then turns Jesus over to be crucified. Why does he do it?
Pilate has to keep Rome happy by maintaining order. To maintain order,
Pilate has to appease the crowd. Even though he has already pronounced
Jesus "not guilty" of any crime, Pilate has the final say. In his mind,
his word is law. In the eyes of the crowd, Pilate's word is law. Jesus,
however, knows that Pilate has no power to act, rule, or enforce his
verdict apart from God's granting him that power. Pilate is a puppet
who cannot recognize that he acts in concert with the crowd's will,
Rome's desire, and God's plan. Jesus is allowed to be crucified -- both
by Pilate, to appease the crowd which is being manipulated by the
religious leaders, and also by God, who is using this horrifying event
to save the world. If God can bring such a great redemption out of such
an unfair injustice, imagine what he can do with our suffering for his
sake.
Can any one of us imagine what it must take to sacrifice your child! I cannot!
TODAY'S PRAYER:
O God, you are the Almighty, the one in control even when I cannot see
Your control. Help me to understand that you will redeem every
injustice brought upon your people at your chosen time. Give me the
faith and strength to endure such times and the courage to live my life
in the hope that even if the scales of justice are not balanced in my
lifetime, they will be at the end of time. In Jesus' name I pray. Amen.
Hello Judy;

Judy remember that the Holy Spirit is the voice of hope in our lives and He will stengthen our hearts day by day to live our live to His praise and glory.
I grew up south of Houston in a town called Nassau Bay (across from the Johnson Space Center). Went to school with the sons and daughters of the astronauts and my Dad worked at NASA. We were less than 20 miles from Pasadena and Gilleys (rode the mechanical bull a few times growing up). That was all before it was cool and way before "Urban Cowboy" flick in 1980 with John Travolta. I can speak with a drawl when required. Good chatting with yall!
I came to Jesus 33 years ago, I have ment so many people who came to faith in the 1970s. I like to refresh my brothers and sister by bringing worship vidios. It is truely a way tocome into His presence. God bless
Hi, again, I am sorry for it taking so long to get back to you. Being mother of 9, homeschooling, and writing, my head is rarely screwed on straight! I love my life but I get so busy! You asked if I were familiar with Lousiana? Somewhat, but not a lot. My brother-in-law used to live there and we visited him, plus we've studied it in our homeschool somewhat, so....How are you? Have a blessed day, it's for HIM I live, Anna

SO who is it that you know from Moline?
i'd say it's pretty big but people know people who know people haha

Hi Judy ,Thanks for the comment. It is hard finding Christian friends on the internet. I am getting ready for my weekend work as a shift manager at a rather large homeless shelter in Lakeland, Fl. It is a great place to serve the Lord and to help others less fortunate than I.
In Christ Robert
