SUNDAY MEMORIES
Judy Wills
I’ve mentioned in previous musings, that I am on facebook quite a bit. And if I find something that resonates with me, I “save” it and sometimes use it in a blog post.
That’s exactly what I would like to do with today’s post. I found this particular cartoon by Charles Schulz, and it appealed to me, so here it is.

Why did this particular cartoon spark my interest? Well yes, it WAS, indeed, sound theology. And sound theology from God does, indeed, have the means to comfort and reassure us. I have, personally, found that to be quite true.
How often have I found Satan trying his best to sway my thinking to something that God would not want me to be thinking about? Far too often, that’s for sure.
So what do I do – to get my mind off that topic and onto something pure? I turn to Scripture. There are many Scripture verses that I have learned/memorized, that lead me right back to God. Satan cannot stand to be in the presence of Scripture – it literally drives him away and out of my mind!
One of my favorites – and one I’ve quoted in oldthingsrnew before is:
In this world you will have trouble,
but TAKE HEART!
For I have overcome the world
John 16:33
But the Scriptures that help me the most, are ones that praise and adore God Himself. They lift me up as no others.
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord God Almighty
Who was, and is, and is to come!
Revelation 4:8
and again:
Holy, Holy, Holy is the Lord Almighty,
The whole earth is full of His Glory!
Isaiah 6:3
You see, it doesn’t take a lot of memory space to praise God. But that SOUND THEOLOGY gives peace like I’ve never had before.
And just for your information – those Holy, Holy, Holy words are the words batted back and forth among the angels, before God’s throne. WOW! I get to magnify God with the angels! Amazing!
I am so glad God made a way for me to praise and adore and worship Him that way!
