This is for all the new Christians you are metal junkies. Welcome to the family of God. If you like the music, I listen to Stryper radio on Spotify.

Proverbs 3:7 MSG [5-12] Trust God from the bottom of your heart; don’t try to figure out everything on your own. Listen for God’s voice in everything you do, everywhere you go; he’s the one who will keep you on track. Don’t assume that you know it all. Run to God! Run from evil! Your body will glow with health, your very bones will vibrate with life! Honor God with everything you own; give him the first and the best. Your barns will burst, your wine vats will brim over. But don’t, dear friend, resent God’s discipline; don’t sulk under his loving correction. It’s the child he loves that God corrects; a father’s delight is behind all this. Good Friday evening to you. I hope and pray that you had a wonderful week and ready for the weekend. Have a blessed weekend and a wonderful week ahead. Buckle up, stay safe, and keep it between the ditches. God bless 🙏.

Matthew 5:43-44 MSG [43-47] “You’re familiar with the old written law, ‘Love your friend,’ and its unwritten companion, ‘Hate your enemy.’ I’m challenging that. I’m telling you to love your enemies. Let them bring out the best in you, not the worst. When someone gives you a hard time, respond with the supple moves of prayer, for then you are working out of your true selves, your God-created selves. This is what God does. He gives his best—the sun to warm and the rain to nourish—to everyone, regardless: the good and bad, the nice and nasty. If all you do is love the lovable, do you expect a bonus? Anybody can do that. If you simply say hello to those who greet you, do you expect a medal? Any run-of-the-mill sinner does it. Good Wednesday evening to you. I hope that God blessed you today. Buckle up, stay safe, and keep it between the ditches. God bless 🙏

Isaiah 41:13 MSG [11-13] “Count on it: Everyone who had it in for you will end up out in the cold— real losers. Those who worked against you will end up empty-handed— nothing to show for their lives. When you go out looking for your old adversaries you won’t find them— Not a trace of your old enemies, not even a memory. That’s right. Because I, your God, have a firm grip on you and I’m not letting go. I’m telling you, ‘Don’t panic. I’m right here to help you.’ Stay focused and know that He will never leave you. Buckle up, stay safe, and keep it between the ditches.
