November Inspiration




Brighter



My path shines brighter 

as I walk with the Lord,

delighting in His bright, true Word.


***

Proverbs 4:18 NIV
[18] The path of the righteous is like the morning sun, shining ever brighter till the full light of day.

Watering


As rain comes sprinkling and wat'ring down,

So I must be in my home or town:

Singing, and sharing, and pouring love,

telling of Jesus who shed His blood.

***

Proverbs 11:25 NIV
[25] A generous person will prosper; whoever refreshes others will be refreshed.

https://bible.com/bible/111/pro.11.25.NIV

Wisdom



Stupidly, I walk away from Wisdom:

I shake, and stumble, fall.

But Wisdom helps me up:

He strengthens me once more.

He gives me everything I need:

For Wisdom is my All.


***

Proverbs 8:14 NIV
[14] Counsel and sound judgment are mine; I have insight, I have power.

Grace


Proverbs 11:16(a)
[16] A gracious woman gets honor (ESV)


***


Linda just managed to hold her tongue by the grace of God. She clattered a little in the sink in order to release some emotion, whilst her heart breathed a desperate plea. "Please change him Lord. I can't."

After the last dish was packed away, and the floor swept, Linda sat in her usual spot, and picked up her quilting. After a while, she heard some clattering coming from the kitchen. Jake.

Before long, he was standing at her side, his large hands grasping her favourite mug. "I'm sorry for snapping at you Linda. Forgive me?"

Dearest Reader,

Thank you so much for stopping by to spend some time with me: an ordinary person with faults and failings, flaws, and ups and downs.

As we near the end of this year, my prayer is that I will grow more and more into the person God designed me to be. In my home, my family, my church, and my community.

I pray that I will be bold by God's grace: to love, to pray, to serve, and to share the Gospel.

And if it is God's will for me, I pray for the inspiration, joy, and strength, to write more encouragement for you.

I pray too, that if you have not yet done so, that you will cry out to Jesus to save and forgive you. He is faithful and will answer your cry.

May God bless and keep you.

Love and hugs,

Alison

Battle. A Free Short Story.

Battle Evil swarmed and swooped thickly throughout the valley. Jonathan's sword slashed to the left and right. Sometimes, it arched through the air above his head, as infuriated hisses and screeches filled the darkness. To Jonathan's left and right, inky blackness was being pushed back by his companions. Stretched across the valley, they marched on, their swords slashing and crashing through the thick air, and bringing limp scaly bodies to the ground. The bright ones could not stop. Victory was not theirs yet, for the evil hordes kept coming. There were more than ever before it seemed, here at the closing of the ages. Jonathan grimaced as a foul creature landed close beside him. It screeched and bared its fangs in final rebellion. But Jonathan kept on. Supernatural strength coursed through his body, as more warriors joined the battle. They were nearing the far side of the valley now. The atmosphere remained black and grim: the battle was far from over. Jonathan's sword coul...

A September Medley

  Psalm 81:3 "Blow the trumpet at the New Moon, at the full moon, on our feast day." Trumpet A trumpet sounds: A royal din: Our long-awaited Groom steps in. A joyful wedding  song now plays and we will love Him all our days. *** End Times Tales: Every Little Bit Counts. Lisa's father pointed his teaspoon in her direction as his brows drew together gloomily. "What's the point? There are masses of lost people in the city. What can one girl do? Besides," he added more gently. I don't want you getting hurt. People are just plain mean these days." He waved the spoon as Lisa quietly placed her books in her backpack. "It's not the old days anymore. Just like the Bible says, people are proud and boastful; scoffers, arrogant..." "I know, Dad, but I have to try. It's what Jesus wants me to do. There's so little time left before the Rapture." "Like shovelling sand with a teaspoon." Her Dad grumbled. Lisa shook her head...

The Searching: A Free Inspirational Story

  The Searching: A Free Inspirational Story Dear Readers, Here is a gift from me to you. "The Searching" is a story which has been puttering around in my heart for awhile. It nearly didn't get written though, as I was a bit unsure as to whether I could get it to work. But God is faithful, and He gave me both the inspiration and the words. There were a few times when I nearly gave up, but now, I'm so glad that I didn't. It's one of my favourites, and I hope that you enjoy it too.  *** Previous cover The Searching: A Novella *** By Alison Lawrence *** Copyright Copyright owner: Alison Lawrence. 2024 All rights reserved.
