🕊️ Seeing then we have a great High Priest who has passed through the heavens, Jesus the Son of God, let us hold fast our confession.

For we do not have a High Priest who cannot sympathize with our weaknesses, but was in all points tempted as we are, yet without sin.

Let us therefore come boldly to the throne of grace, that we may obtain mercy and find grace to help in time of need. 🕊️

Hebrews 4:14-16

🕊️ Father God, thank you for this day!

Thank you for my life!

Thank you for my sweet bride and our beautiful daughter.

Thank you for all the many blessings we have and for keeping us safe.

We are witnesses of so much suffering here at home, in our community, and outwardly in the many communities in our state and all around the world. I cannot begin my day without first lifting up my hands and voice in praise!

Help us Lord, to live our lives simply and peacefully, looking for even the smallest opportunity to share what we have with those in need around us.

May the light You shine in our hearts reflect outwardly, in all we say and do, not in pride or boasting, without sinning, but in our actions or walk by faith and as You lead us. As we grow in faith and by Your grace, may Your Spirit fill us with words of wisdom and truth to live by, and share with others as is appropriate and in love, in Jesus’ name, Amen! 🕊️

🕊️ For where envy and self-seeking exist, confusion and every evil thing are there.

But wisdom that is from above is first pure, then peaceable, gently, willing to yield, full of mercy and good fruits, without partiality and hypocrisy.

Now the fruit of righteousness is sown in peace by those who make peace.🕊️

James 3:16-18

Good morning Father!

Thank you for this day!

Thank you for my life!

Thank you for all the blessings you rain on me and my family each day. Thank you for watching over us and keeping us safe! May your light shine in and through me and my family this day, in all we say and do!

Lord, as I go about my day, help me to be watching for those who need a healing word. Help me to listen to the needs being expressed around me. At work or in leisure, guide me to listen to what individuals are saying beneath the conversation. Is their life difficult right now? Are they excited about a recent joyful event?

Every conversation I have with another person is important! Help me oh Lord, to speak words of encouragement and love, in the exchange of friendly banter or deep discussion about faith and life…they all matter, because these connect me with other beings created in Your image.

Remind me oh Lord, to be an encourager, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

🕊️ A New Covenant with God: “…I will put my law in their minds, and write it on their hearts, and I will be their God, and they shall be my people.

No more shall every man teach his neighbor, and every man his brother, saying, ‘Know the Lord,’ for they all shall know me, from the least of them to the greatest of them,” says the Lord. “For I will forgive their iniquity, and their sin I will remember no more.” 🕊️

Jeremiah 31:34

🕊️ “Therefore, brethren, having boldness to enter the Holiest, by the blood of Jesus, by a new and living Way which he consecrated for us, through the veil, that is, His flesh, and having a High Priest over the house of God, let us draw near with a true heart in full assurance of faith, having our hearts sprinkled from an evil conscience and our bodies wash with pure water.

Let us hold fast to the confession of our hope, without wavering, for He who promised is faithful. 🕊️

Hebrews 10:19-23

Thank you Father, for your love and your sacrifice for my life and to help free me from the chains of guilt and shame, I was shackled by my sin and seen as an outcast, but then, through your mercy and grace, you accepted me as I was, full of hatred, anger and bitterness, and You delivered me!

Your Holy Spirit has filled me and set my feet on solid ground. Through the years, with the seed of your Word, now deeply rooted in my heart and mind, may I always and forever radiate with Your light in all I say and do. May I hear your Word echoing in my mind, leading me, directing my every step, causing my way to be sure and true, and steady. Thank you Lord, in Jesus’ name, Amen!

There is therefore now no condemnation to those who are in Christ Jesus, who do not walk according to the flesh, but according to the Spirit. 🕊️

Romans 8:1

🕊️ Likewise, the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we shall pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groaning which cannot be uttered. 🕊️

Romans 8:26

🕊️ A sick man, who is rich, cannot buy life, when he is dying. With such a short time left brings one to thoughts on all the memories before him. Where has my focus on life taken me? How will I be remembered? Did I make a difference?

So many thoughts to consider, I say live each day as if it were your last! Tell those important to you that you love them, while you still can! Speak words of hope and peace to those around you! Give to someone in need and extend a hand of friendship to the stranger before you. The epicurean seeks joy in what pleasurable things he has or does in his short life, but the spiritual man finds happiness in life daily, because he sees the riches of an everlasting joy, and love, and peace that awaits him. 👀

We all are on a mission, a journey, which has many paths. I pray the life I choose, each step I take, leads me along the path of righteousness, in Jesus’ name, Amen! 🕊️

🕊️ “Come, my children, listen to me; I will teach you the fear of the Lord.

Whoever of you lives life and desires to see many good days, keep your tongue from evil and your lips from speaking lies. 🕊️

Psalms 34:11-13

With so much debauchery and imprudent messages coming from those who are supposed to lead and protect the people they serve, I am reluctant to join their band or sing their song.

Today, I find myself digging deeper into God’s Holy Word and meditate on His messages of hope and inspiration.

How will I lead my loved ones if my heart is bitter and cold, my hands wringing as I watch the news and hearing more negativity and playing the same hopeless song?

This day I choose to rejoice in the good news of Jesus Christ! I will read from His Words of the hope and comfort which brings me peace and calms my spirit.

Today, I make plans to walk along a path I know will lead me to truth and righteousness. Each step I take brings me ever closer to a deeper relationship with the One who brings me joy and love for life, strengthening my walk as I enter into the light of His presence.

Bless me this day Oh Lord, that I might keep my eyes on you alone, and may I walk in the light, as You lead me, by faith, and filled with Your Spirit in my life and as I journey towards truth.

Thank you Father, for your Love, and sacrificing your son, Jesus Christ, so I might find grace, mercy and peace, for myself, my family, and all those I come across, searching for the answers, in Jesus’ name, Amen 🕊️

1-23-2025 “Hush of Humility”

Posted by webholyman on

(from: One minute Prayers for Men)

🕊️ For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith, and that not of yourselves, it is the gift of God, not by works, so that on one can boast. 🕊️

(Ephesians 2:8-9)

God, everything I have is from you.

The faith I hold onto tightly is a gift of Your Grace.

If people see the peace and wholeness of my life, may I never claim responsibility for such things.

I will share about Your mercy.

I will share how Your love transformed me at a time when I could do nothing to help myself.

My dependence on You should shine far brighter than my self-sufficiency.

Let everything I do, say, accomplish, or receive praise for be a reflection of Your gift.

~~~~~~~

🕊️ Good morning Father!

Thank you for this day!

Thank you for my life!

These words I pray, the words I write down in my journaling, and share online with others, they are from my heart and it’s a purposeful endeavor driving me.

🕊️ Thank you Lord! 🕊️

…For it is God’s will, that by doing ‘good’, you should silence the ignorance of foolish men. 1 Peter 2:15

The quiet words of the wise are more to be heeded than the shouts of a ruler of fools. Ecclesiastes 9:17

🕊️ Good morning Father!

Thank you for this day!

Thank you for my life!

Thank you for my sweet bride and our beautiful daughter!

All that we possess and all that we are, they are all blessings from you.

Help me this day Lord. Fill me with your Spirit, and guide me with your unfailing Love, to share words of ‘hope’ and ‘strength’ to those struggling in the dark beside me. May your light shine in and through me this day, in all I say and do, in Jesus’ name, Amen! 🕊️

🕊️”Blessed be the God and Father of our Lord Jesus Christ, the Father of mercies and God of all comfort,

who comforts us in all our tribulation, that we may be able to comfort those who are in any trouble, with the comfort with which we ourselves are comforted by God.

For I am persuaded that neither death nor life, nor angel nor principalities nor powers, nor things present nor things to come,

nor height nor depth, nor any other created thing, shall be able to separate us from the love ❤️ of God which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.🕊️

7-27-2024 prayers for this day.

Posted by webholyman on

Father, God, supplier of all our needs, you are the one and only answer for what we need. As we experience our physical bodies age and become weak, we pray for healing and grasp onto whatever we receive to maintain us for another day.
Help us as we face the physical challenges, give us your wisdom and patience to wait upon you and not be shackled to the demands of the world around us.
Help us oh Lord, Father, as your children, we still need you to guide our way through the dark.
See our hearts Father and judge our motives. Forgive us where we lack the vision to see the answers in front of us.
Guide us with your Holy Spirit and grace. Give us your Peace and grant us oh Lord, the courage to see another day through, in Jesus’ name, Amen!🕊️

7-14-2024 The Way of Love

Posted by webholyman on

Lord I pray this day, I may show love to all those around me, from my family and friends whom I worship with in church today, to the stranger I come across while driving, out shopping, or in passing on the street. Fill my heart, mind, and spirit with your love Lord, in Jesus’ name Amen!

The Way of Love – 1 Corinthians 13
1 If I speak in the tongues of men and of angels, but have not love, I am a noisy gong or a clanging cymbal. 2 And if I have prophetic powers, and understand all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith, so as to remove mountains, but have not love, I am nothing. 3 If I give away all I have, and if I deliver up my body to be burned, but have not love, I gain nothing.
4 Love is patient and kind; love does not envy or boast; it is not arrogant 5 or rude. It does not insist on its own way; it is not irritable or resentful; 6 it does not rejoice at wrongdoing, but rejoices with the truth. 7 Love bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
8 Love never ends. As for prophecies, they will pass away; as for tongues, they will cease; as for knowledge, it will pass away. 9 For we know in part and we prophesy in part, 10 but when the perfect comes, the partial will pass away. 11 When I was a child, I spoke like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When I became a man, I gave up childish ways. 12 For now we see in a mirror dimly, but then face to face. Now I know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I have been fully known.
13 So now faith, hope, and love abide, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

It’s a New Beginning

Posted by webholyman on

11-28-2023

Just under a week ago I posted I will begin posting regularly. My motivation to share online is due in part, to my continued personal conviction and also the kind words of encouragement from NJE, a close friend, to share my stories.

I have put off posting on my blog, as a regularly scheduled endeavor, until I felt I had all the pieces I needed, now firmly in place.

This is not a complete list but to provide a window in my world, I now have my new awesome MacBook Pro laptop, a new 4 TB external drive with a crazy fast transfer rate required for transferring videos directly from my drone, I’ve been refreshing my use of Adobe software, I.e. Photoshop, Lightroom, and Premier, and having my local and cloud data storage infrastructure, my recording format I.e. Apple ProRes for all my visual story formats regardless if in text, photos, and videos.

~~~

My primary consideration in my writings is to include in each message or story, some spiritual underlying quality or feel, but not in a judging or condescending way.

~~~

My personal goal is for my “Legacy writings” or stories, to be an encouraging message to my family, friends and the public, with a loving kindness, one which will be remembered and retold or visited many years after I am gone.

~~~

Father God, I’m sitting at my desk, lift my hands and heart to you this day, my thoughts and prayers for your Holy Spirit to guide me in each message posted, so as to be a blessing, with a clarity of conscience. I pray each day be a strong foundation on which I plan to build on for each consecutive post. My life is in your hands Lord. I pray you mold me and make me to be an instrument you may use to shine your light and love, in Jesus’ name Amen!

Prayer for a mind of service

Posted by webholyman on

It’s a serious choice to consider when my service is required helping others around me. For some it is easy and yet for others it is a struggle. I have seen God work in my life many times, and just when I needed it most. So as I witness and experience this time of struggle happening all around me, with all ages of people suffering, I feel God’s Spirit directing my spirit to serve, without judgement, where it is needed or required of me. In my case it is with my family here at home. It is as a teacher to my daughter, a helper to my sweet bride and our aging mother’s care.

“…To a graceless neck the yoke of Christ is intolerable, but to the saved sinner it is easy and light. We may judge ourselves by this: do we love that yoke, or do we wish to cast it off? Psalms 2:3”

For me this day, I pray, Lord help me to serve those in need around me. I pray your Spirit guide my steps, with a willing heart, for service and your Loving care. Teach me to be selfless and remind me of the many blessings I already receive from you daily. In Jesus’ name, Amen!

Family

Posted by webholyman on

Last night I was looking at some photos of two of my grandchildren and i realized, all my children are on my mind…tonight…and all the time.

I ponder, how are they each doing in life, physically, emotionally, financially, where is their faith walk, what is the status of their family.

I pray for them every night with my Sweet Bride Amy.

In Matt 18:19 & 20, the bible says: “v19 …Again, truly I tell you that if two of you on earth agree about anything they ask for, it will be done for them by my Father in heaven. v20 …For where two or three gather in my name, there am I with them…”

So tonight we prayed again for my children, and I asked the youngest of all, hanging out with God and all the angels, to keep watch over them all…Our dearest Tommy.

Family is one of the most important things to me, and one of my biggest challenges to maintain.
This is why I invoke my Lord, and my God, Jesus Christ…hear me Father GOD, I cannot do it alone.
I pray Holy Spirit, you are there beside each of them, speaking to them, listening for them to call out to you.
I pray for all my family, extended family and my brothers and sisters in my church. I pray for Peace for our country internally and for abroad. I pray for the unity of all believers to work and pray as one, for this peace and a time of healing for us all…in Jesus’ name Amen!

Today I saw my neighbors become heroes

Posted by webholyman on

I was watching TV when I heard a crash just outside my house.
Then there was a car alarm sounding. One man said he believed the woman’s car strut had broke causing her to lose control of her car.
The car collided into a parked van and then flipped upside down, landing on the driver’s side roof. The top had been crushed closing the window’s opening to allow the driver to escape. By the time I got to the other side of the car, my neighbors were already helping the woman get out of the passenger’s side…she apparently was thrown into the back seat and was not visibly harmed in the crash. I watched as I saw a couple of my neighbors calling 911 and reporting the crash. Other neighbors were offering the woman a blanket, water, a first-aid kit and comfort. I believe she is going to be fine. Today I saw my neighbors become heroes.

My wife just went to a workshop all about getting to know our neighbors. It’s amazing how many we met today!

Mom, (Evelyn Evageorgina Corsini) passed last night sometime after 11:30 pm.
She had a rough last two weeks and although her spirit was strong, her body was just too weak.
Mom is with the Lord now and no longer suffering or in pain.
Amy and i are confident she is holding our baby boy Tommy, a grandson she never got to meet.
We will post memorial arrangements later….

Senior Lobby Day Photos

Posted by webholyman on

As a member of the Bellevue Network on Aging, our sub-committee members attended this event to discuss the issues facing seniors and meet with legislators.
We met with them to thank them for listening to our requests and we presented our concerns about the upcoming fiscal budget and possible cuts to important programs.
This is the first of maybe three more event opportunities to support legislation to help sustain seniors, the homeless and vulnerable populations and their programs.

Gun Violence story and my feedback…

Posted by webholyman on

Today I watched a story about Sammi Rahamim.
Please take the time to watch this video.

Should my life be ended in like manner, as Sammi’s dad, I would hope and pray my children will do likewise in helping stop the violence.

Having lost our son at birth in 2009, albeit he was not shot to death, a death and loss is the same, that life is not present and the expectation of walking a continued journey in life with that loved one has ended.
I am sharing this video and my words, as an encouragement to revisit the topic of this story and the action we all need to take to keep our loved ones safe. I am not about taking away our ability to protect ourselves, rather preventing the slaughter and death of innocent lives from happening more often….or at all.
