The book of Job teaches us that we can trust GOD, his purpose, wisdom, and goodness even while we may be going through great suffering or trials. Our understanding of our circumstances is limited at times and we should not lean on our understanding but trust that GOD is working out all things for our ultimate good if we are among those who love him and have been called according to his purpose.Good times and difficult times have the potential to work for our and others benefit and conform us all to a more perfect image of Christ.Job invites the reader to further ponder some of life's most difficult questions.Todays reading shows us that just because we don't yet understand the "WHY" something is happening doesn't mean there is not a purpose for it, and even if what we are enduring is intended for evil against us, GOD can still turn the results of it into something that is ultimately good for us or those we may be trying to help.Scripture ReferencesJob Chapters 38-42Mark 11:24 "Therefore I say to you, all things for which you pray and ask, believe that you have received them, and they will be granted you."Numbers 6:22-26 "Then the Lord spoke to Moses, saying, “Speak to Aaron and to his sons, saying, ‘Thus you shall bless the sons of Israel. You shall say to them: The Lord bless you, and keep you; The Lord make His face shine on you, And be gracious to you; The Lord lift up His countenance on you,And give you peace."My Reflection This Episode: Our true worth is found in our relationship with GOD. Job is showing our value in the LORDS eyes, is based on our faithfulness to Him, NOT on earthly recognition and NOT our status or position among mankind, and definitely not on how many words we use to pass judgement on ourselves or others.Episode Take AwayThe best way to handle life's circumstances regardless of my current situation is to focus on who the LORD is, what he has done, and that nothing is impossible for him to do for me or someone I may be trying to help at that very moment in time or into my/their future if I/they believe and continue to focus and rely on him in faith.Reflection QuestionsHave you, like Job or his friends, ever realized that you spoke without truly having the understanding you thought you had and it humbled you or made you ashamed? Did you repent and ask the LORDS forgiveness?Why do you think the LORD forgave Job and restored to him all he had lost and more?Why do you think the LORD spoke to Job, Eliphaz, Zophar, and Bildad but he does not address Elihu nor is Elihu mentioned any more in the book of Job?Do you live with a victim mentality or do you cast your cares on the LORD and believe for him to work all things out for your good in his timing?After listening to this series did you realize you may have pre-judged others at times or gave biblical advice before truly understanding what the LORD wanted you to do, say, or not say?Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

The tongue of the righteous is as choice silver, The heart of the wicked is worth little. The lips of the righteous feed many, But fools die for lack of understanding."Ecclesiastes 5:2 - "Do not be hasty in word or impulsive in thought to bring up a matter in the presence of God. For God is in heaven and you are on the earth; therefore let your words be few."2 Timothy 2:16-17 - "But avoid worldly and empty chatter, for it will lead to further ungodliness, and their talk will spread like gangrene."Matthew 5:37 - "But let your statement be, ‘Yes, yes’ or ‘No, no’; anything beyond these is of evil."My Reflection This Episode: Our true worth is found in our relationship with GOD. Job is showing our value in GODs eyes is based on our faithfulness to Him, NOT on earthly recognition and NOT our status or position among mankind.Episode Take AwayElihu is defending Gods character and trying to restore a more right way of thinking to both Job and his friends.Whether younger or older, age doesn't always equal wisdom. Reflection QuestionsHave you ever been overly zealous about a topic to the point of not using any restraint, but instead hastily uttering harsh words of judgement?Did you later realize your many words had done more harm than good and wished you had exercised restraint over your words?

Be alert and of sober mind. Your enemy the devil prowls around like a roaring lion looking for someone to devour. Resist him, standing firm in the faith, because you know that the family of believers throughout the world is undergoing the same kind of sufferings. And the God of all grace, who called you to his eternal glory in Christ, after you have suffered a little while, will himself restore you and make you strong, firm and steadfast.

Today we are reading from Acts Chapter 10 and part of Chapter 11. This reading is about Peters vision while in a trance like state where he saw something resembling a sheet being lowered from the sky with a variety of animals on it. Previously, I had not understood the meaning of this vision for myself. I had been taught it meant that Yehovah GOD changed his previous dietary directives for mankind and we could now eat whatever meat we wanted.After examining these scriptures for myself, I now understand and accept what I believe is the true interpretation because explanation comes from the author and recipient of this vision himself as he shares in these scriptures what was revealed to him personally through the Spirit and evidence of the events that transpired when he met with Cornelius.The gift of the Holy Spirit has been poured out to also include the Gentiles!Scripture ReferencesActs 10:1-48Acts 11:1-18Deuteronomy 14:3-20Our podcast is also available on most podcast player apps.Support the showSend us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

I am on a journey to find out for myself what GODS word says. Actually read it for myself, to study, and do my best to understand and to live according to what Yehovah instructs me through it. If others want to study along with me, thats great!I share what I believe to be truths with you from studying I have previously done however, be aware as I continue to study throughout my life, it's possible my understanding of any scripture may change over time because GOD's word is living and powerful. That is why it's as relevant today as it was a thousand years ago and reveals more and more to us as we continue to study it.We should always be learning, growing, and repositioning ourselves in order to better align our lives and our thinking with that of our Father.I have no desire to teach you a "religion". How we each choose to respond to what we study is up to us individually.My goal is to get myself ready for the reality that we all must face one day and that is death and ultimately answering Yehovah for how we lived our life.The beautiful thing, but also a big responsibility that he gifted to us, is the power to choose. It's our very own. It's called free will. The free will to chose to trust, love and hang out with and learn from him, or to simply disregard and ignore him. I hope you join me on this journey!If you haven't listened to Genesis 1 (Episode 46), Genesis 2 (Episode 47), Genesis 3 (Episode 48), or Genesis 4 (Episode 49) I suggest you listen to those first then continue to this episode. I believe we need to start at the beginning and follow the Bible through to its completion to truly understand what is being said in context. We also must keep an open mind because when we do, we are going to learn many, many things we didn't know before. In this episode we are reading Genesis, Chapter 5.Scripture ReferencesGenesis 5:1-32Ephesians 2:8Genesis 1:26Ephesians 2:102 Timothy 3:16-17Genesis 2:17Deuteronomy 8:11-201 John 2:3-6Luke 10:27Exodus 32Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

I am used to getting what I want when I want it.I have lived life assuming everything I need or want will be available to me on a whim. That, every day I'm given life will be the same as the day before it.However, we all NOW know how quickly and unexpectedly our complete world can change. For goodness sake the thing I thought the least about in my wants and needs prior to this time, was toilet paper!, but now it too, has become a precious and rarely found commodity!Another is time with family and friends. This is something I kept meaning to do more of, but spent way to much time pursuing other things, thinking I would visit soon, after I got all the other things I wanted or needed to get done, then I would take time to visit. It's interesting to me that right now, as we can't get with others because of quarantine that we suddenly feel such a desire to.Could it be that we only focus on the things we can't have like spoiled brats? Listen along as I explain some things weighing on my heart.Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

Surely others must ask themselves this question and like me, desperately seek to have some assurance on the most important part of life which is our death, because life is short but eternity is forever!I was raised attending and being actively involved in church my whole life. I feel I have tried to be a good person each day of my life by treating others the way I would want to be treated, by helping others when I have the resources available, attending church, and just generally trying to be a good person.But I am currently struggling with the thought of whether I will go to heaven or not? I think I will, but I'm not sure and I wonder how some people are so adamant about knowing they are going to heaven while I still feel unsure? It could be because I'm getting older and know that naturally my time on earth is growing shorter or that I don’t want the life given to me to be one where I just existed. I want to know that I accomplished something that made this world a better place for my family, my friends, or those who will live after me. I so desire to know that my GOD (Yehovah) is proud of me for who I was and what I did for him with this precious life he has gifted me with.I am seeking reassurance to give myself peace of mind and/or to find out what I possibly need to change in my life to be assured that I will live eternally with my GOD. If you have had the same questions I invite you to join along with me as I search for the answer to the most important questions anyone could ever ask themselves in my opinion.

Because I love to eat (and you can tell that if you looked at me) I want to talk to you about food. So if you will allow me, I will start at the beginning.I'm not sure exactly how I came to think like I do now about food and food insecurities. In my adult life and spending a few years as a single mother of three we definitely had times that there was little food to choose from and no money to obtain any.I thank GOD for other people who had somehow understood that we might need items and at times shared things with us saying they had more than they could use, because their generosity sustained us.But, even while having a good understanding of what its like to be without food, I still somehow just relied on getting food at the store when we had the money to do so. Somehow I never thought to put some things away for those times when money was low or there was none at all.

Today I want to talk about grace.I found some vitally important scriptures (in my opinion) that we should all take time to think about and use them to apply in our lives so that when we stand before our GOD (Yehovah is his actual name) to answer for how we lived our lives, we won't be condemned to the eternal fires of hell.So let's do this.Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

Do you hold any grudge against yourself or someone else?Merriam Webster Definition:Grudge: to give, do, or allow (something) in a reluctant or unwilling way: to dislike or feel angry toward (someone) for something.I tend to internalize and beat myself up for things I've done that are wrong or mistakes I have made, or in areas where I failed at something. I was trying really hard to do well, but sometimes I carry the guilt, shame, and disappointment around with me like a school girl with a loaded down backpack. Have you ever done this?

Today I want to talk about something that has happened to me many times and maybe it has to you as well.Have you ever eagerly set out to meet a friend and you genuinely want to find out what's going on with them since you saw them last because you have missed their company, but you also have a desire to have that rendered back to you and them show a genuine interest in you and what you have been up to and get their input or advice in your life because you respect their opinion?However, when you leave them, instead, you feel empty and disappointed because all they did was talk about themselves and not ask you anything about you or what you had been up to?Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

Today I want to talk about how important it is to choose the right friends. The people we choose to hang out with.In times past I have spent way too much time caring what other people thought of me and have been guilty of choosing friends by the way they made me feel or because I thought they were cool or they were popular and I had a lot of friends.I sought attention and self-worth from what others thought of me so much so, that at times I did or said things I wouldn't normally do or say because that's how the people I was trying to impress talked or acted.Have you ever done that?

I woke up very early this Saturday morning. I felt as though I needed to spend time alone with GOD, like he wanted to tell me something or for me to do something. It started yesterday morning actually. I had prayed that GOD would use me that day to do something meaningful for him. I started the day strong working on a variety of things I had on my to do list for this podcast outreach. But last night as I was about to fall asleep I realized I had gotten majorly distracted and felt disappointed and that I had not accomplished very much of what I had intended to do, that as the day progressed I had completely forgotten to seek GOD and wait for his response. You know, we can spend our entire lifetime repeating the pattern of good intentions and plans being diverted due to our distractions and getting sidetracked by things that don't make any difference. I have done this over and over in my life.Let's talk about this more.Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/

Have you ever done things for the church or for other people to impress them, so they would see you as a “good person”?I want to talk about something critically important to everyone on the face of the earth (in my opinion) and I will explain as I share.Send us a textSupport the showhttps://www.facebook.com/saundraspodcast/
