The Blame Game

A funny thing happened … We had been looking for a special Razorback drink holder, but were unable to find it. One day, my husband washed and cleaned the car and found it under the seat. Since I am usually the car driver and he is the truck driver, he immediately assumed I had used the drink holder last. Upon further inspection, it held his favorite soda pop drink, not mine. Opps!

     This got me to thinking about the “blame game” and how often we use it. In this particular case, it was done in humor; however, that is not always the case. So, why do we “blame”?

 

It could be because of: 

 

B ruised emotions

L ow self-esteem

A fraid

M alice toward another

E nvy toward another

 

Blame is often done because we do not see the “speck in our own eye.” 

 

Matthew 7:3 “And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye?”

 

Expectations

Nothing may come of my day, but eager expectations jump start it. What does that encompass? 

 

E nter into prayer 
X-pect good things
P raise God non-stop
E njoy the moments
C ommit thy ways to the Lord
T hink positive 
A nswer with respect 
T alk with love 
I ncorporate scripture 
O wn your deeds 
N  ip the negative 
S avor the joy   

When I Awoke

There is nothing like a little talk with God...in the early morning hours...before the day begins.

O Lord, 

This morning as I awoke, 

I ask that you take my yoke;

The weight from my shoulders,

The little things and the mighty boulders.

Take my burdens, my cares,

And all my personal affairs.

I give it all to you to control;

To mold, and my steps to patrol.

I, in turn, 

Give you my concern.

Let my steps match your walk

And your talk;

To align;

To give you the yolk that is mine.

O Lord,

Lift the weight, 

Make my path straight,

Seal me with Your grace and heaven’s fate.

“Cast thy burden upon the Lord, and He shall sustain thee: He shall never suffer the righteous to be moved. Psalm 55:22 KJV 

 

“Come unto me, all ye that labour and are heavy laden, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you, and learn of me; for I am meek and lowly in heart: and ye shall find rest unto your souls. For my yoke is easy, and my burden is light.” Matthew 11:28-30 KJV 

 

Sing A Joyful Song

 I have so much to be thankful for, and I am in awe of the blessings given by my Lord. My heart if full, and I sing a joyful song.

I Sing a Joyful Song 

I shout joyfully to the Lord,

And strive to be of one accord, 

For it is He who made me;

I am His, the lamb in His meadow,

And through Him I flow and grow.

 

I sing a song of joy to the Almighty One;

Through Him all things are done.

In His hands are the depths of the earth;

He made all things of worth.

In His hands are the peaks of the mountains.

The sea is His-He made it!

His hands formed the dry land;

By Him all things were made rich and grand.

 

I rejoice and am glad in the Lord,

For He is the God world-wide,

And the One forever by my side.

He firmly established the earth.

He set the seas.

He formed the creatures, trees, and bees.

 

Though I walk through the city streets,

And feel the winter breeze or the summer heats,

It is His.

Though I walk through the crops and fields,

It is His and what it yields.

Though I walk upon the forest floor

Or across the ocean shore,

It is His,

And I praise His holy name,

For it is from Him I came!

“O come, let us worship and bow down: let us kneel before the Lord our Maker.” Psalm 95:6 KJV 

Watched

It is automatic with any mishap, like a fall, etc., to suddenly look around to see if anyone saw the embarrassing moment. Even when I fail and sin in some way, I never want anyone to know. Yet, I am assured that someone is watching, and it causes me to groan. 

     Proverbs 5:21 tells me, “For your ways are in full view of the Lord, and He examines all your paths.” 

     On another level, this verse assures me that God is watching, not only for instruction, but in love, as well. He continually pulls me away from my sin and toward the right path. In this case, I am so glad I have a Lord who watches. He sees me, cares and forgives!

Born and Reborn

The month of July, this year, came in very hot and humid; however, I was blessed that God sent a rain shower and lowered the temperature. It's like July has taken on a whole new refreshed life.  As I sit and enjoy this new freshness in the morning coolness, I cannot help but consider the tremendous blessing of my salvation, my rebirth, and how God washed new life into me. 

Born and Reborn

 

After God breathed into me His very breath,

I was born hungry and thirsty.

My soul fainted from within

Because of sin.

I was troubled-

Problems doubled.

I was often in distress,

Not knowing who to address.

I had a parched and thirsty soul-

Feeling empty and un-whole.

I was in chains-

Pain running through my veins

There was darkness and I felt broken

Until I heard a voice softly spoken.

It led me to the Light

And stopped my fight.

He cured my thirst

And I was immersed.

My troubled storms were gone

With God’s new dawn.

My thirst was turned to living water

When I became God’s daughter.

From death to life-

Into a fruitful land, God brought me out-

His Name I glorify and shout

From a dry and weary land,

God took my hand,

And I was born again.

“Therefore, if any man be in Christ, he is a new creature: old things are passed away; behold, all things are become new.” 2 Corinthians 5:17 KJV

 

 

 

Consider God's Ways

Consider the: 

 faint whisper

 loud shout

 enticement

 allurement

 driving desire

 continuous thought

 urging from within

 

From whom does it come? What could it be? 

Temptation beyond God’s given boundaries 

or 

A nudging to do something right? 

 

Whatever it is, take it to the Lord, first and foremost. Consider God’s ways! 

 

2 Corinthians 11:3 “But I am afraid that just as Eve was deceived by the serpent’s cunning, your minds may somehow be led astray from your sincere and pure devotion to Christ.” 

 

Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to Him, and He will make your paths straight.” 

 

Rain In July

It is so uplifting when experiencing a dry spell in July when an unannounced and unexpected heavy rain, leaving puddles, pops up out of nowhere. Even when it begins to stop and the sun pops out, there is still the vision of rain in the background. The landscape literally sparkles! Only God can do this! What a blessing!

A Clean House

While thinking about the joy of dwelling in God’s house, my final resting place, it brought to mind the following song of old: 

 

Sing the wondrous love of Jesus; 

Sing His mercy and His grace; 

In the mansions bright and blessed 

He’ll prepare for us a place. 

When we all get to heaven,

what a day of rejoicing that will be! 

When we all see Jesus, 

we’ll sing and shout the victory!

 

Although I think about my final restful dwelling home with Jesus, I have to, also, think about what kind of place I am preparing in the present. The Holy Spirit indwells with me here, and I rejoice in that. To maintain a clean dwelling place for Him, I need to: 

Stop………to consider the pulling of the conscience

Listen…..and do not ignore His nudging

Choose…to reject missteps

Apply…. His guidance

If I can do this, then I can “sing and shout the victory” in the present. 

 

 

 

Mercies Given

Independence Day starts with the Power of God. He has been merciful in all things by blessing our great nation. He also blesses me, personally, with independence by His gifts, and I acknowledge all His ways. 

     God see all and is merciful! When I am wrong, He see. When I troubled, He sees. When I cry, He sees. 

       

Mercies Given

 

Great are Your mercies, O Lord!

You hear me when I cry 

From Your throne on high.

You reach out to guide,

And I know You are by my side and abide.

When sadness or glee enters my eye,

Lord, You know why!

You watch when my tears flow,

And my troubles, You know.

You understand and revive me

Within my sorrowful plea.

When my eyes shed streams of water,

I know you love me, your sinful daughter.

You are my hiding place,

As I seek Your face.

With every shimmering tear,

You are there to care and cheer.

Great are Your mercies and forgivings,

Helping me through my daily livings.

In my sobbing disgrace,

Your peace enters my space.

When I weep

Your presence makes my heart joyfully leap.

You establish my ways

Throughout my days.

You, O Lord, are my help in times of distress,

And I am blessed.

Great are Your mercies!

“Behold as the eyes of servants look unto the hand of their masters, and as the eyes of a maiden unto the hand of her mistress; so our eyes wait upon the Lord our God, until that he have mercy upon us.” Psalm 123:2 KJV 

 

Morning Prayer

My Morning Prayer

 

O Lord,

You created me in your image.

I feel and reason,

But only You can change the season.

You wove my inward parts,

Then sent the Holy Spirit into my heart.

You made me limited in body,

But You have no limitations;

You rule the nations.

You made me Your living temple, but I am confined-

Only You can indwell 

Within every human body and cell.

My life is here for a term-

You, O Lord, always was, is now, and forever

Helping me with my endeavor.

I came to be when You molded me,

But You existed before and will always forever be.

I change in thought and time,

But You, O Lord, are constant, unchanging, steadfast-

The One I need first and last.

You created me, 

And I become weary, tired, and fearful,

But You are there to make me cheerful.

From Your creation, I grew into a sinful state

With ways and thoughts, so lowly,

While Yours are greater and holy.

I, O Lord, am just a common, living being,

But You are all-seeing.

Lord, I am only flesh-

You are Spirit, the joy of my soul,

And it is You who makes me whole. 

You made me to, one day, be gone in the blink of an eye,

But You will remain to govern the earth and the sky, 

By Your hand, I will be reborn to live again-

To dance across your rebuilt glenn.

I will praise Your Holy name in my rebirth, 

And rejoice to live upon Your restored earth.

“Be thou exalted, O God, above the heavens: let thy glory be above the earth.” Psalm 57;11 KJV 

Think on These Things

     I am sure God is very familiar with the term “delay” which is postponing Him. I believe we all do it; for instance: 

 

“God, wait just one moment. Let me review Facebook first.” This is not putting God first. That is delaying!

 

“God, I am really busy right now. I will talk with you when I go to bed.”  Then, I fall asleep in the middle of my conversation with Him. That is not putting God first. That is delaying too long!

 

“God, I really need to talk with You, and I will as soon as this movie or news broadcast goes off.” That is not putting God first! That is delaying!

 

     I really do not think God is pleased with “delaying”. We delay, then we whine about our unanswered prayers. 

Joint Adventure

     Life can be a joint adventure. Anyway, that is usually the way it is in our household. The question might be who does the most? Who labors more? Who is in control? 

     Any successful adventure needs to include the One Most High. Take for example the following: 

 

I plant the garden, but my husband waters it, but who makes it grow? 

 

On trips I drive halfway, and my husband drives the other half, but who gets us there safely? 

 

I cook, and my husband does the dishes, but who supplies the food? 

 

I dust, and my husband vacuums, but who puts the real joy into our home? 

 

I believe I found the answer in 1 Corinthians 3:6-9. It is the joint-partner we hold tightly to in prayer and thanksgiving.

 

“I planted the seed, Apolios watered it, but God has been making it grow. So neither the one who plants nor the one who waters is anything, but only God, who makes things grow. The one who plants and the one who waters have one purpose, and they will each be rewarded according to their own labor. For we are co-workers in God’s service; you are God’s field, God’s building.” 

 

 

 

 

Love One Another

My “knee-jerk” reactions don’t always show how I prefer others to see me. I often wish I were slower in speech and action in order to consider what I want others to see in me. Is it:   

 

Rude or Polite

Unkind or Kind

Angry or Calm

Mad or Happy

Hurtful or Comforting

Ungrateful or Grateful

Unloving or Loving 

 

I only have to remember John 13:35 to know what needs to be instilled within.

“By this shall all men know that ye are my disciples; if ye have love one to another.” 

 

What To Say

 What do I say to God when I awake to plan the day? 

If I can say "Your will - not mine,  Your timing- not mine, Your plans - not mine, Your way - not mine," then at the end of the day all will be right.

Insert "Me"

It helps me to make scripture more personal if I can sometimes take a scripture and insert “me” into it. Take the following, for instance: 

 

Psalm 67: 1 “God be gracious to us (me)  and bless us (me). And cause His  (Your) face to shine upon us (me). 

 

Or 

 

Psalm 67:3 “Let the Peoples (me) praise You, O God; Let all the peoples (me) praise You.”

Sweet Tea and Jesus

I’m a southern girl, so I like the quote” 

    “Raised on Sweet Tea 

         And Jesus”

I also like the summary given in my Sunday School lesson today which stated, “Christians possess confidence, light, love, and Jesus.” 

     What does this statement mean to me? It means that I have confidence that I belong to God because I believe in my Jesus. It means even as a sinner, I strive to walk in the Light, because God is Light. By walking in the Light, I strive to keep God’s laws in such a way that others see Him in me, and I love God and my fellow-man. 

     So, give me a whole lot of Jesus!

The Glory of God

The beauty of a sunset, a flowerbed in bloom, or something in nature excites us. Many snap a photo to share on Facebook, and I marvel at their glory. When I see these posts, I know that the majesty of them all comes from God. He is greater, more glorious, and the Ruler of all. 

 

As glorious as the stars and the rising and setting sun are, God is higher.

   “And the heavens declare His righteousness, for God Himself is judge.” Psalm 50;6

 

Jewels and diamonds have nothing on my Lord. 

     “The Lord reigns, He is clothed with majesty: the Lord has clothed and girded Himself with strength. Indeed, the world is firmly established, it will not be moved.” Psalm 93:1

 

The excitement of catching a glimpse of racing wildlife or their slow grazing is nothing compared to my God.

     “For every beast of the forest is Mine.” The cattle on a thousand hills.”  Psalm 50:10

 

The birds in flight hold no comparison. He created and knows them all.

     “I know every bird of the mountains. And everything that moves in the field is Mine.” Psalm 50:11

 

When I consider the wonders of my God’s Almighty power, I must exclaim, 

“O Lord, open my lips, that my mouth may declare Your praise.” Psalm 51:15

 

The "Big" Baseball Game

I found one more humorous joke from scriptural events. The reason I chose this is because I have been watching the baseball world series. I am not usually into baseball, but my state team was playing. This was Big! However, they lost in the bottom of the 9^th last night. To say the least I was disappointed. 

      So, here’s to the baseball lover.

 

     It happened in the Big-inning. Eve stole first. Adam stole second. Cain struck out Abel. David struck out Goliath. Noah took a couple of bats, but was rained out. The Prodigal son took a home run.  

 

     The thing to remember is that there are always winners and losers. Even the loser can be a winner, and a winner can be a loser. It depends on how I choose to look at it. I might be “batting a hundred,” but if I do not have God in my life, I am certainly the loser. 

 

 

 

Prince Charming

I was raised with Prince Charming stories; those who came to rescue the damsel in distress like, Cinderella, Snow White, Rapunzel, and many more. I enjoyed reading all the fairy-tales.

     I was also raised with the Biblical story of Ruth. She was a damsel in distress. She left her hometown to care for her mother-in-law, Naomi. They both had lost their husbands and were in need. Boaz was the Prince Charming who came to their rescue.

      There is a joke that asks, “What kind of man was Boaz before he got married? The answer was Ruth-less. 

     Actually, Boaz was a good guy. He was prosperous, kind and generous. He saw the need of the two women and provided. He also came to love Ruth and, as in the fairy-tales of old, they married and lived happily ever-after. However, this was no fairytale; it is a true-life story. Truth be told, Boaz was probably not a prince-charming to the full degree. He was just a man, like us, enduring but, yet, holding true to the promises of God. 

     The Bible was given to us as true-life events. It was given to show mankind how to live and who to look to for guidance, love, and direction. The writings are inspired to show how to be rescued. How to obtain our true needs. How to be saved and be able to live forever with the King on High. The true Prince is Jesus, who is the only begotten Son of God. 

     I believe in God, Jesus, and the Holy Spirit. I believe in the death of Jesus on the cross to save anyone who will believe. And, I believe I will be rescued; taken up to live with God and His Son happily forevermore. 

 

     “For God so love the world that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”  John 3:16 KJV

     

Adam and Eve Short Version

I respect every scriptural reading, but I often enjoy good clean humor from what I have heard and read. I like to think in terms of what Sarah said in Genesis 21, “God hath made me to laugh…”

     Three humorous jokes I found about Adam and Eve follow. Although funny, if you know scripture, there is sadness in their disobedience just as there is in our disobedience today. 

 

How did Adam and Eve feel when they were expelled from the Garden of Eden? They were really put out.

 

What excuse did Adam give to his children as to why he no longer lived in Eden? Your mother ate us out of house and home. 

 

What is one of the things that Adam and Eve did after they were kicked out of the Garden of Eden? They raised cain.

 

     The story of Adam and Eve can be found in Genesis. God created the first man, Adam, and placed him in the Garden of Eden. After that, God took a rib from Adam and created Eve as a helpmate. He gave them instructions not to eat of the fruit of just one tree of many in the Garden. Then along came the serpent, Satan, and deceived Eve into eating of the forbidden tree. She ate and then enticed Adam to do the same. When God asked what they had done and why? Adam blamed Eve. Eve blamed the serpent. God kicked them out of the Garden and told them to get a job; go work for a living. Afterward, they started a family. Cain was the firstborn, followed by Abel. Cain worked the field; Abel the sheep. Cain made an offering to God but his heart was not in it, so God did not approve or respect the offering. Abel made an offering out of love and desire, and God approved. It made Cain angry, so he killed his brother Abel. God then banished Cain to another place. 

 

     That is the short version, but does it sound familiar in terms of today? If so, be thankful for God’s grace and His plan of salvation through Jesus, his Son, because we do not deserve all His almighty blessings.

Through The Months

Every month "I will bless the Lord at all times: His praise shall continually be in my mouth." Psalm 34:1

Through The Months 

 

January hosts 31 days

When resolutions are just a phase

It can be weary,

Sometimes cheery.

February can be cold and dreary

Unless you look for a happy theory.

March creates winds of starch.

April brings a warming spell, so frail,

But it blows in Spring’s fling.

May finds children going out to play

While flowers pop up in early morning hours.

June is a month sublime

When the Clematis strives to bloom and climb.

July is usually dry,

But lovely butterflies still fly.

Summer has issued in 

And moisture drips from the skin.

August is sometimes filled with drought’s dust,

Or whatever prevails, you learn to adjust.

Then, there’s September

When the season begins to turn to fall,

And golden leaves come to call.

November is when all is dressed out for Thanksgiving

And blessings being given for healthy living.

December ends in a winter’s year

With coming months unclear.

Lights are all aglow

With thoughts of coming snow

And of new resolutions intending to make

And then to break.

Twelve months have come and gone

With God’s control in every dawn.

I will praise Him through the months He brought;

The months I got;

The months that change,

For He does not.

My Salvation -A Personal Story

I am going to write something very personal this morning. It is about my salvation experience. 

     I was ten, but I had been attending church all my life. The day I decided, to give my life to Jesus was just a normal day. I was brough up to obey my parents, so I remember walking outside where Mother was washing clothes in an old wash pot. I asked her if I could join the church at our next Sunday service and she said it would be great. 

     As it happened, I was sitting with my parents when I decided to move during the invitation to go up-front. Mom had to tell Dad to step aside, because he was blocking my exit. 

     One other girl also accepted Christ that day, and I remember her well. I had my head bowed sitting on the front bench. She came down the aisle after me, and when she sit down, I looked up. She was grinning at me. I smiled back and then, again, bowed my head. 

     There were several who were baptized on the same day I was. I also remember that while others turned to the side when they entered the baptistry, I turned and looked to the front toward the crowd. 

     After the service, we simply went home as usual, but I felt different. I was excited and I knew I was new. I had been washed clean.

     Today, if someone asked me how I know I have Christ in my life, I would simply have to say, “The Holy Spirit lives within. I feel His joy, I feel when He leaps within my heart. I see the workings of God in my life. I have peace when I seek to follow God’s will. I carry a sadness and guilt when I disobey His Word. There is a movement within that makes me want to right the wrong, and a peaceful, calming assurance when I make all right. And I have a belief which no one can change, and that is, that Jesus died for me. He is my Living Breath!”

     There is also a song I adhere to, “Jesus Loves Me This I Know, For The Bible Tells Me So.”

     There is also one of the first verses in scripture I ever memorized, and it is this verse I must tell others about. It is the way to everlasting life.. John 3:16 says, “For God so loved the world, that He gave His only begotten Son, that whosoever believeth in Him should not perish but have everlasting life.”

Consider

There are many “Considers” in scripture. I touch on just a few: 

 

Consider the generations long past

     How God cared for His people and gave them the nations

Consider what great things God has done

     How God has blessed

Consider the heavens

     Who created them and give God the glory

Consider all God’s works

     Meditate on them and praise Him

Consider the ways of the ant and be wise

     Work 

Consider what God has done

     How He makes straight the crooked

Consider the raven, they do not sow 

     God feeds them

Consider the wild flowers that do not labor or spin

     God clothes them in beauty 

Consider that we belong to God

     We are His children

Consider Christ who endured opposition 

     He endured it for all mankind

Consider how far you have fallen

     Repent and come to Jesus 

 

Consider and Praise

Psalm 8:3, “When I consider Your heavens, the work of Your fingers, the moon and the stars, which You have set in place…” I praise You!

 

Psalm 8:5, “You have made them (man/me) a little lower than the angels and crowned them (me) with glory and honor…” And, I give You all the praise and glory.

 

Psalm 8:6, “You made them (man/me) rulers over the works of your hands; You put everything under their (man’s) feet.”  I thank You for Your power to do all things under Your guidance, and I thank You for Your grace when I fail.

 

Psalm 8:9, “Lord, our (my) Lord, how majestic is Your name in all the earth!” Lord, You deserve all my honor, glory, thankfulness, and praise.

 

 

 

The Shadow

As I read my Daily Hope devotional which talked about walking through the Valley of the Shadow and looking to the Light, I was inspired to write the following.

 

The Shadow

 

Should I walk through the shadow of death,

There is still breath,

And I will not fear,

For God is there to steer.

Should I walk through the shadow of debt,

I can overcome the threat.

Through the shadow of conflict,

I will stand strong and not be licked.

In the shadow of depression,

There is still intercession.

When I walk through the shadow of dismay,

I will overcome when I pray.

In the shadow of what is unclear,

I know Jesus stands near.

Should I see a shadow looming

I know it is not all-consuming.

A shadow can disappear from my sight

When I look to the Light,

For He says, “Do not fear,

For I am near.”

 

Mary Crisp Jameson 6/11/2025

 

“Yea, though I walk through the valley of the shadow of death, I will fear no evil; for thou art with me; they rod and thy staff they comfort me.” Psalm 23:4 KJV 

 

 

 

 

 

Come-Take-Learn

Matthew 11:28-30 “Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light.” 

 

I find three verbs of meaning within this scripture. Jesus says to Come-Take-Learn. These words are simple in definition, but within this scripture they have a powerful meaning.

 

It is really simple to come to Jesus. When I come to Him in prayer and thanksgiving, He has the power to solve my problems and relieve my burdens. I just need to release them to Him. 

 

When I take up my yoke and share it with the Lord, He carries the main load. We move together as one and in the same direction.

 

When I begin to learn about Jesus and His loving ways, my burdens are lifted; they become lighter and life is easier and more restful.

Naked

I was born to this world and clothed by my parents, but I was clothed in righteousness when I was reborn by accepting Jesus. My earthly deeds had meaning, but when I leave this world and meet my Savior face to face, I will take nothing with me.  

 

Naked

 

Naked, I came in birth. 

Naked, I died to this world,

What was my worth? 

What was seen in between?

Were my deeds full or lean? 

What did others glean?

Hopefully, a life washed clean!

 

Naked I came.

Naked I left.

What was my gain?

What did I leave undone?

What was my sum?

How was my life’s run?

Hopefully, others saw my love for the Son! 

 

Naked I was born.

Naked I died. 

Coming quickly is my reward?

I will be clothed and restored.

I will be adorned;

Made one with my Lord.

 

Mary Crisp Jameson  6/6/2025

 

“And, behold, I come quickly; and my reward is with me, to give every man according as his work shall be.” Revelation 22:12 

 

 

 

 

 

Never Alone

It is always a comfort knowing I am never alone because I know I have the Father, Son, and Holy Spirit always with me. 

Jesus is There 

 

No matter what…

When I cannot see ahead

Or where I must tread,

Jesus is there!

 

When I simply cannot conform

And must weather the storm,

Jesus is there!

 

When I stand alone

And groan,

Jesus is there!

 

When I am in grief,  

I find relief.

Jesus is there!

 

No matter what…

 When I walk through the day, 

I find a way.

‘Cause Jesus is there!
