Writing and Art From A Life Redeemed by Jesus Christ

                                                  Man Shall Not Live By Bread Alone                                                       © 2006 Debbie Turner Chavers                                                            Matthew 4:4 and Luke 4:4 A few weeks ago I signed up to receive a weekly study help at the Joyce Meyer website. Spending time reading the Word is a wonderful way to begin to establish a growing relationship with the Lord.  Every relationship requires due diligence to get to know the other party.  How will you know what God has to say about this life and beyond unless you personally take the time to spend time with Him. Psalm 46:1  God is our refuge and strength, a very present help in trouble. This morning I received the study help copied below.    Click here to be taken to the website to sign up for your own weekly encouragement to help in your study of the bible.  I accepted and received Jesus Christ as my personal Savior close to 30 years ago.

Word Buoys - Life Preservers © 2015 Debbie Turner Chavers I am posting a copy below of a newsletter update from Missionaries Jason and Nicole Fitzpatrick.  I want to encourage you that someone is always watching our daily life. This story below is an example to persevere. Keep on keeping on!  Make a positive difference while you can.  You never know which seed sown will grow with God's help.

Therefore said he unto them, The harvest truly is great, but the labourers are few: pray ye therefore the Lord of the harvest, that he would send forth labourers into his harvest. Galatians 6:7-9 Be not deceived; God is not mocked: for whatsoever a man soweth, that shall he also reap. For he that soweth to

Genesis Chapter 1-2, And God Said, Let There Be © 2004 Debbie Turner Chavers Most people do not realize their importance in day to day living.  Therefore a spirit of excellence is diminished by a lack of knowledge.  We need to see ourselves and our daily walk in this world as important. I want to remind you and encourage you to post this somewhere where it becomes settled in your heart and mind. "Remember everything you do today is important and makes an eternal difference." ~Debbie Turner Chavers You are so loved and were born for such a time as this.  God does not make mistakes.  His ways are perfect and planned.  You were part of His plan.  Psalm 139 Everything done or not done has eternal consequences.  If you keep this in mind as you do your daily life you will begin to see the smallest things that connect to a life well lived. Example...dirty dishes.  Dirty dishes can be a sign that there was nourishment provided and eaten.  The cleaning up gives you an o

Psalm 23-Beside Still Waters © 2008 Debbie Turner Chavers At times when spending time in God's presence I write poetry, paint art parables, read the bible, or sit and soak in His Peace.  At times I rejoice, making melody in my heart, singing out loud and at times play my tambourine.  There are so many ways to spend time with the LORD.  Make time today, you will be glad you did. I wrote this poem during my study for the art parable "Psalm 23-Beside Still Waters" I Heard Your Voice Beside still waters I heard your voice As a whispered song of love that flowed along. As I traveled a weary road I heard your voice as a crescendo A bubbling brook that refreshed my soul. As I lay to sleep I heard your voice As a wooing song That lapped gently along the edges of my dreams Rowing me home. When my earthly journey is over At the end of my days I want to hear you say "Well done, good and faithful servant." © Debbie Turner Chavers Matthew 25

PURPOSE .  Do it. An encouragement to persevere.  Set your mind on things above. 1 Chronicles 29:5  The gold for things of gold, and the silver for things of silver, and for all manner of work to be made by the hands of the artificers.   And who then is willing to consecrate his service this day unto the LORD? Everyday there is opportunity set before you to serve God with your whole heart.  God has provided. Out of all the things and possessions we gather, God is able to replace in a blink.  Sometimes we become so insistent in gathering we forget who provided. As we work day in and day out as unto the LORD...remember... 1 Chronicles 29:14  But who am I, and what is my people, that we should be able to offer so willingly after this sort? for all things come of thee, and of thine own have we given thee. What do you lack for the task at hand? Ask, He has all that you need. ~Debbie All writing, poetry, posts, art, and photography, copyright © 2015 Debbie Turner Chavers. Pr
