Caleb’s Real-estate Joshua 14

My brothers lacked faith and made others fearful, but I wholly followed the Lord…and I was given a promise because I wholly followed the Lord…And now, behold, I am this day 85 years old. I am still as strong today as I was in the day that Moses sent me…So now give me that mountain of which the Lord spoke on that day,

for you heard how the giants were there, with great fortified cities.

It may be that the Lord will be with me, and I shall drive them out just as the Lord said.

And Caleb drove them out…and Caleb said, “Whoever strikes Kiriath-sepher, and captures it, to him will I give Achsah my daughter as wife.

And she got off her donkey, and Caleb said to her, “What do you want?” She said to him, “Give!

“Give me a blessing!”

The Next Generation

And there arose another generation after them who did not know the Lord or the work that He had done for Israel. Judges 2:10

And they were in terrible distress. Judges 2:15

Defy the Darkness

He tends his flock like a shepherd;

He gathers the lambs in his arms

And carries them close to his heart;

He gently leads those that have young.

Isaiah 40:11

Jonathan,

I’ve been doing some soul searching lately, and I believe I

have not been a good father to you, but recognize that by

God’s grace, it is never too late. I am truly sorry for thepain I’ve caused you. May God’s spirit and yourcommitted dad bring healing ointment to your life. Hereis my shoe oil thing--use it whenever you like. All that

is mineis yours! Love,

Dad

Ephesians 3:20

Dad,

I’ve been doing some thinking of myown. I, too, am sorry for the pain I’vecaused you. However, I disagree withyou in that you have not been a goodfather—we’ve just had some roughspots (more like smooth spots on sandpaper, but who’s looking). Here’s mytie—wear it whenever you want.

Jonathan James 1:2-3

And He shall turn the hearts of the Fathers to the children,

And the heart of the children to their fathers,

Lest I come and smite the earth with aCURSE!

Malachi 4:6

The results of the curse:

• serpent – will now crawl on its belly and constant conflict

• Eve – in sorrow she will bring forth children

• Adam – in sorrow he will bring forth the fruit of the ground

sorrow: intense labor

THE GRACE

OF OUR LORD

JESUS CHRIST

BE WITH YOU ALL AMEN.

Revelation 22:21

YOU CANNOT CONTROL

ANYTHING WHEN YOU HAVE

OUTSTRETCHED ARMS!

Dear Dad:I read your gift. Why do you do

that do me? Yes I cried. But don’t get all suppy and mushy. I ’m forever sorry for not helping you when you needed it. That will change. Things can be different now. Thank you for trying over and over and over again, to be the best father that you can be. I love you. Please hold my hand forever…don’t let it go.
