Harry Houdini is considered one of the great escape artists of all time. For example, he escaped from milk cans, jails, straightjackets (while suspended upside down), and of course his most famous the Chinese Water Torture Cell. Obviously these were tricks, but great skill with physical and mental stamina were needed in escaping these various devices.

Paul lets us know that we have the opportunity to perform escapes greater than any Houdini ever accomplished! What an incredible promise God has given!!

Temptations are real. Even Jesus Himself was tempted (Hebrews 4:10.) We all struggle with that “sin which so easily ensnares us” (Hebrews 12:2.) Yet God’s promise remains and is true. When temptation knocks and wants in our mind, we are promised that we can handle it and will be given an escape opportunity from it.

When we realize that each time a temptation attacks our mind and we find that escape route from it, a battle is won toward the ultimate goal of honoring our Savior and heaven. So, surrender your mind to Jesus (2 Corinthians 10:5.)

Do you complain about thorns on the stem of roses or can you look past the thorns and be thankful for the beauty of the rose?

The current atmosphere in the United States is quite draining. Regardless of where you look or what you hear it seems that everything is coming up thorns instead of roses. When the country’s mood is so politically and socially toxic it can appear as if there is nothing to be thankful for. Yet, can we stop just for a moment and consider Psalm 9?

King David wrote this psalm knowing he had personal enemies that would love to destroy him and his country but took the time to still be thankful. How? Because of the relationship David had with God. He looked past the thorns and saw the rose. David saw God!

David could be thankful because God will judge the wicked.
David could be thankful because God could be trusted in times of oppression.
David could be thankful because God showed mercy to His people.

Does the same not hold true for us IF our relationship with God is not one sided?

We can be thankful that a relationship is even possible with God because of Jesus.
We can be thankful that God is righteous in His judgments, assuring us that He will never leave us alone in a dark cruel world.
We can be thankful that His mercy will always be available to us because of what Jesus of Nazareth accomplished.

So may we also learn to look past the thorns and see the beauty of the rose. Thank God for this “Rose” too wonderful for words! (2 Corinthians 9:15)

Love & peace my friends…Stevo

Memorial Day is a day set aside for citizens to remember those men and women of our armed forces that never came home alive. An estimated 1.3 million Americans have died protecting our freedoms. Our nation’s capital has memorials dedicated to those who fought and died. The Vietnam Wall vividly comes to mind as one I have visited many times. All for a clear purpose – to Remember and Not Forget. I am so thankful I was born in this country.

We that follow Jesus should know what it is like to remember and memorialize. We are to remember how God loved us and offered grace. We are to remember Jesus gave Himself so we could have forgiveness of sins and a new covenant. We are to remember and never forget what was done for us eternally.

To all that lost a loved one in combat, may you find the peace that passes all understanding from God in Jesus Christ.

Love & peace my friends…Stevo
