Don’t just read God’s word but absorb God’s Word

Adversity Follows
Stopped by a policeman for driving without a taillight, a driver became quite distressed.
“Don’t take it so hard,” consoled the officer, “it’s a minor offense.”
“That’s not the point,” replied the troubled driver. “What worries me is, what’s happened to my wife and my trailer?”
21 TOPIC: Advice Sharing Is Part of Community
A certain fellow was about to make his first parachute jump. The plane carried him up to the proper altitude and he was told, “This is it, friend–jump!” So he leaped from the plane, counted to ten, and pulled the rip cord, but nothing happened. He was falling rapidly toward the earth and his life was flashing before his eyes. He pulled his second emergency cord. Nothing happened. Just then he looked down toward the earth and was surprised to see another man hurtling up toward him from the earth. He couldn’t believe his eyes. As the two men passed each other, the falling parachutist yelled, “Do you know anything about parachutes?”
The ascending man cried out, “No. Do you know anything about gas stoves?”

Proverbs 4:18–19 KJV 1900
18 But the path of the just is as the shining light, That shineth more and more unto the perfect day. 19 The way of the wicked is as darkness: They know not at what they stumble.
Proverbs 4:23 KJV 1900
23 Keep thy heart with all diligence; For out of it are the issues of life.
God has a message for every generation.
God is before there was a sound or letter he’s before anything.
We are redeemed through his Blood.
Revelation 1:4–8 KJV 1900
4 John to the seven churches which are in Asia: Grace be unto you, and peace, from him which is, and which was, and which is to come; and from the seven Spirits which are before his throne; 5 And from Jesus Christ, who is the faithful witness, and the first begotten of the dead, and the prince of the kings of the earth. Unto him that loved us, and washed us from our sins in his own blood, 6 And hath made us kings and priests unto God and his Father; to him be glory and dominion for ever and ever. Amen. 7 Behold, he cometh with clouds; and every eye shall see him, and they also which pierced him: and all kindreds of the earth shall wail because of him. Even so, Amen. 8 I am Alpha and Omega, the beginning and the ending, saith the Lord, which is, and which was, and which is to come, the Almighty.
Things are different in Heaven.
Matthew 22:29–32 KJV 1900
29 Jesus answered and said unto them, Ye do err, not knowing the scriptures, nor the power of God. 30 For in the resurrection they neither marry, nor are given in marriage, but are as the angels of God in heaven. 31 But as touching the resurrection of the dead, have ye not read that which was spoken unto you by God, saying, 32 I am the God of Abraham, and the God of Isaac, and the God of Jacob? God is not the God of the dead, but of the living.
Proverbs 4:26–27 KJV 1900
26 Ponder the path of thy feet, And let all thy ways be established. 27 Turn not to the right hand nor to the left: Remove thy foot from evil.
Look to Jesus.
Hebrews 12:1–2 KJV 1900
1 Wherefore seeing we also are compassed about with so great a cloud of witnesses, let us lay aside every weight, and the sin which doth so easily beset us, and let us run with patience the race that is set before us, 2 Looking unto Jesus the author and finisher of our faith; who for the joy that was set before him endured the cross, despising the shame, and is set down at the right hand of the throne of God.
