What You Can Control-Selah71-CMAW168

S   Got an email from OnePathPublishing with clarification on an issue I raised last week which is that Jesus, or Yahusha, will return on on 1st of Tishri and when He said that we would not know the day or the hour He was referring to the fact that the Feast of Trumpets is on the 1st day of the month, which is defined by when the moon first appears, to be confirmed by 2 priests and so it's impossible to predict on which day that will be, let alone the hour.   Luke 7:37-38 "37 “Judge not, and you shall not be judged. Condemn not, and you shall not be condemned. Forgive, and you will be forgiven. 38 Give, and it will be given to you: good measure, pressed down, shaken together, and running over will be put into your bosom. For with the same measure that you use, it will be measured back to you.”" Teacher on the radio said we often use this verse about giving to talk about finances, but it's context is right after telling us not to judge and to forgive.  Jesus was providing a foundation for all our relationships and ministries, if we want to experience gods kingdom and see our circumstances really change, we must change and forgive, world teaches we must wait for others to change but if we follow that advice we may remain in bondage forever, we can become a blocked channel or vessel unable to receive the love and mercy God has for us, forgiveness is a gift we give to others and ourselves and we will receive God's best as a result.   I've seen conflict in many parts of my world.  At the macro level, we see nations in conflict, Russia and Ukraine, China and Taiwan, Israel and Iran and many other countries.   In our country it's right vs left, vaccine mandates vs freedom of choice.  But at the micro level I see conflict within the church even in my own church, within families, I see pretty major conflicts not within my immediate family but in my extended family in a big way.  In all of these instances, I can see how forgiveness is the solution.  We cant' control others.  We can only control ourselves and one of the best choices we can make is to forgive others. FM 92.1 on 2/20/22   Self Help in 2 Chapters Ps 1 and Prov 3 Today I'd like to read Psalm 1 and next time I'll read Proverbs 3.  IT's a reminder to me that I don't need self-help books, even if they're called Christian.  I need the Bible.   E   L       Do not toil to acquire wealth; be discerning enough to desist. When your eyes light on it, it is gone, for suddenly it sprouts wings, flying like an eagle toward heaven.
