Wonderful..... Kristene DiMarco


"The mercy of Your blood would not relent. My guilty stains You washed them all away."

 I stand innocent of God's judgment only because I put my hope and trust in Jesus Christ. 

I don't think there is one of the commandments that I have not broken. If not in action, I've done it in thought. If you are honest with yourself, so have you. 

The 10 Commandments List

  1. You shall have no other gods before Me.
  2. You shall not make idols.
  3. You shall not take the name of the LORD your God in vain.
  4. Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy.
  5. Honor your father and your mother.
  6. You shall not murder.
  7. You shall not commit adultery.
  8. You shall not steal.
  9. You shall not bear false witness against your neighbor.
  10. You shall not covet.

There may be some of these we still do. The joy of a relationship with Jesus is, His love for us is unconditional. Scripture even says that the Spirit is willing but the flesh is weak, Matthew 26:41. At the cross is where all our weaknesses has a place to die. His desire is to draw us closer and closer into a relationship with Him.

I don't want to break any of these commandments intentionally, but I might unintentionally. That's the difference, and I am so glad that God sees into my heart. One day we all will face death, that's a fact. You may not believe you are going to face judgment, and that's your choice. It may be the worst choice you ever made in your life. Or better said at your death. Hebrews 9: 27, "Just as people are destined to die once, and after that to face judgment."

You know what's crazy? It takes more faith to believe we came from nothing, than to believe that there is a Creator.

Jesus set me free and now I stand redeemed.

With much love

Remember to Remember.... Steven Curtis Chapman


Joshua 4:21 ...."In the future your children will ask, "what do these stones mean?"

I love the lyrics of this song. But I also love that in the beginning he picks up a stone and puts it in his backpack. I do that too when I go to places I've never been, along with the other stones I've collected. I also love that he sings about mountains and valleys. That is what my BlogSpot is titled. (Mountain and Valley Devotionals)
My children and grandchildren will find memory boxes filled with special stuff I saved and letters I have written them. But even more special, they will find all the blogs I have written over the years. I pray that they can look back at them and be strengthened by remembering just how faithful God has always been.

Many years ago, God laid on my heart to start writing. "Write through your pain and life experiences with Me and other things I will open the eyes of your heart to see. One day you will look back, and others will to, and remember Who carried you through the valleys. You'll be able to tell others about my promises and that "I Am" always faithful to help you see the mountain view."

 I love Christian Music, I love God's word, and I love life. Put it all together and my blogging started to take off. It is viewed all around the world. Thanks to my son in law Brian for putting it together for me. I can look and see all the other countries that view and follow it. Over 68,000 now! All glory to God.
When I say I love life, that means I have learned to accept the good, the bad, and all the in between. I don't like the painful parts at all. But I do like what it's doing to me, in me, and through me. None of us are going to live a pain free life, but it's what you choose to do with it. Remember to remember "Who" walked you from the valleys deep to the mountain view.

Like the lyrics say : As sure as the sun will shine, there'll be more mountains I will climb and more deep dark shadowlands where desperate faith is all I have. But Jesus tells me: "Look where we've been and where we're going, and remember to remember".....

The rest of my days, I pray my life brings Him glory.
Much Love
Kim
