Endings - Tickling "truth"


“Instruct those who are rich in the present world not to be conceited or to fix their hope on the uncertainty of riches, but on God, who richly supplies us with ll things to enjoy. Instruct them to do good, to be rich in good works, to be generous and ready to share, storing up for themselves the treasure of a good foundation for the future, so that they may take hold of that which is live indeed. O Timothy, guard what has been entrusted to you, avoiding worldly and empty chatter and the opposing arguments of what is falsely called ‘knowledge’ – which some have professed and thus gone astray from the faith. Grace be with you.” I Timothy 6:17-21

“For the time will come when they will not endure sound doctrine; but wanting to have their ears tickled, they will accumulate for themselves teachers in accordance to their own desires; and will turn away their ears from the Truth, and will turn aside to myths.” II Timothy 4:3-4

Ever notice how we are capable of molding information to fit our concept of what is correct. One thing I learned early on is that there is your opinion, my opinion and then God’s Truth. Only the One is reliable.

Stay near God's Word. Take care. Your servant & friend in Christ, Darlene

PS: Ongoing prayer requests: Gary, lost his job, wisdom for doctors caring for: David, Adrian, Randy and Michael. The Kossallys and me during some big changes. For a new work project for me. Praise: Lyle’s brother (out of hospital, learning to stand again).
