Today I'm going to focus on praying over our friends and friendships. May seem like a silly thing to pray about but Jesus chose his disciples and according to the Bible, he had friends who thought that he was beside himself. That thought didn't stop Jesus from teaching the Gospel and later on, Jesus declared that his disciples were his true friends because they were doing the will of his Father, which means that Jesus had some friends that he chose to let go of. Or because they thought that he was becoming too weird, the other friends chose to let go of Jesus' friendship. Either way, both group of persons found someone new to socialize with. Pray with me and enjoy.

This episode is a prayer. I forgot to pray last week at the end of the episode as promised but I've done it this week. God bless each and everyone of you and congrats on your new life. If it's not your cup of tea, skip the episode.

This is part two of the talents message from two weeks ago. This portion deals with the scripture and the metaphor of money as it addresses people who preach the gospel on assignment from God. Enjoy.

Matthew 25:14-29

Mat 25:14  For the kingdom of heaven is as a man travelling into a far country, who called his own servants, and delivered unto them his goods. 

Mat 25:15  And unto one he gave five talents, to another two, and to another one; to every man according to his several ability; and straightway took his journey. 

Mat 25:16  Then he that had received the five talents went and traded with the same, and made them other five talents. 

Mat 25:17  And likewise he that had received two, he also gained other two. 

Mat 25:18  But he that had received one went and digged in the earth, and hid his lord's money. 

Mat 25:19  After a long time the lord of those servants cometh, and reckoneth with them. 

Mat 25:20  And so he that had received five talents came and brought other five talents, saying, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me five talents: behold, I have gained beside them five talents more. 

Mat 25:21  His lord said unto him, Well done, thou good and faithful servant: thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 

Mat 25:22  He also that had received two talents came and said, Lord, thou deliveredst unto me two talents: behold, I have gained two other talents beside them. 

Mat 25:23  His lord said unto him, Well done, good and faithful servant; thou hast been faithful over a few things, I will make thee ruler over many things: enter thou into the joy of thy lord. 

Mat 25:24  Then he which had received the one talent came and said, Lord, I knew thee that thou art an hard man, reaping where thou hast not sown, and gathering where thou hast not strawed: 

Mat 25:25  And I was afraid, and went and hid thy talent in the earth: lo, there thou hast that is thine. 

Mat 25:26  His lord answered and said unto him, Thou wicked and slothful servant, thou knewest that I reap where I sowed not, and gather where I have not strawed: 

Mat 25:27  Thou oughtest therefore to have put my money to the exchangers, and then at my coming I should have received mine own with usury. 

Mat 25:28  Take therefore the talent from him, and give it unto him which hath ten talents. 

Mat 25:29  For unto every one that hath shall be given, and he shall have abundance: but from him that hath not shall be taken away even that which he hath.

Just talking about what I've observed in my environment.

Just talking about my failure to locate my glasses and my goal in this new year to wear them all year without missing a lot of days. It's really hard for me. Let's see if I managed to do it in December 2023! This will be a revisit :-).
