Elephants & strong faith ! :)

 Blessings to you , reader !

Let's enjoy God's Word and His creation - the Elephant .

God's majestic Elephants ! 
Even though they are listed as an endangered species ,
they will always represent courage , endurance and strength.
Just as elephants are not indestructible , neither are human beings.
This world brings a great many challenges to the living , whether they are
human or one of God's other creations. And along with those worldly challenges 
can come some very overwhelming odds that can defeat even the best of us .
 
Telling someone , in their most difficult hour , to be strong and of good courage
can sometimes be met with a measure of resentment , or a feeling of being
completely inadequate to meet the level of those well intended words. 
The one thing that you need to keep in your heart is that no sorrow or frustration
can take you out of God's reach.  Ask for His grace , and He will meet you whenever
and wherever you need Him to , so that He can enable you to be so much more than 
you can handle.

God bless you  as you read His Word , seek His face and heed the good
words that He put within the postcard below.

The Number 13 Series : November 13

     To many , the number thirteen ( 13 )  has plenty of negative 

connotations , but here , on BIBLE PAGES , we're going to enjoy 

the number thirteen from a better perspective.   👍

    From HISTORY , November 13 certainly has a variety of good and

bad events , but two positive dates include : [ wiki sourced info ]

1956 - SCOTUS declared Alabama's bus segregation to be illegal.

 Racial hatred has no place in a clean heart.

If you are dealing with racial hatred , then please ask God for

forgiveness , and for Him to fill your heart with His love and grace.

He will forgive you and move many mountains for you , and for 

others , too.  God bless you as you pursue a pure heart !

 



 Matthew 7:12
" In everything, then, do to others as you would have them do to you. 

For this is the essence of the Law and the prophets."

Romans 13:8
" Be indebted to no one, except to one another in love, for he who loves 

his neighbor has fulfilled the Law."

Romans 13:10
" Love does no wrong to its neighbor. Therefore love is the fulfillment 

of the Law. "


1982 - The Vietnam Veterans Memorial was dedicated.

To our military personnel and families , our nation owes them 

a debt and full respect , irregardless of one's opinions of  their 

assignments at that time . Our nation tried to save South Vietnam 

from the very anti-freedom ways of Communism ; and even though 

South Vietnam fell to Communist North Vietnam anyway  -  

for numerous reasons - our major objective was noble . 

Those who lost their lives due to that war , they should not be

forgotten , be they civilian or military. And neither should we 

forget the mistakes made during that era that allowed the fall

to happen. Communism is always worthy of our best fight against it !

.......................................................................................

Switching over to another topic , each month - and sometimes 

on specific days - there are food themes that have been established .

For the second week of November ( November 13 , 2020 ),

SPLIT PEA SOUP is the theme.  God blessed us with the

very healthful vegetable called the Pea , so if you can find a

way to enjoy peas in your diet , it will be an investment in your health !

 Investigate this informative page from Wikipedia about Peas ,

which includes a nutrition chart , pictures of the peas , flowers 

and even art work ; plus it has some international information related 

to God's produce, also.  Enjoy !
