School starts this week in the Philippines. The sponsored kids are excited. There’s still time for you to sponsor a child who will not be in school without the help of a sponsor. See below.
June 4, 2012. Words became important to me as a young man. A teacher suggested I read Reader’s Digest monthly and take the “Word Power” test quizzing the meaning of 20 words. This was raw meat to my hungry mind. As an adult, I tried to pick five new words daily to memorize and use in conversations. It was fun and I taught it to my children. In a recent two hour lunch with my son, who now writes for us, he made mention of his appreciation for the foundation in vocabulary he received growing up. I told him how astonished I am at his literary abilities. He pointed upward to God twice in that conversation. Be careful the foundations you lay. Children are listening.
Proverbs 4:20-23 (NASB) “My son, give attention to my words; Incline your ear to my sayings. Do not let them depart from your sight; Keep them in the midst of your heart. For they are life to those who find them and health to all their body. Watch over your heart with all diligence, for from it flow the springs of life.” Ras Robinson
June 4, 2012. Something keeps blocking your efforts to connect with someone. Right now you aren’t sure if it is the devil or Me. You sure don’t want to find this out after the fact. You want this so badly your judgment has become cloudy. Complete surrender of your emotions submitted to your spirit will be necessary before you will know. Your spirit completely submitted to My Spirit is the only way you will absolutely know. Stop in your pursuit until you find out. Keep your heart in the right place with your emotions in check. Deep down you want only My best. Wait on Me and you will be able to see clearly.
1 Corinthians 2:11-12 (NLT) “No one can know a person’s thoughts except that person’s own spirit, and no one can know God’s thoughts except God’s own Spirit. And we have received God’s Spirit (not the world’s spirit), so we can know the wonderful things God has freely given us.” Bev Robinson

June 4, 2012. How wisely are you using your time? Is your time spent satisfying your own desires and pleasures? Is your time used in a self-sacrificing manner fulfilling everyone else’s needs before your own? You place so much value on time and the lack thereof. Will you devote as much time to Me and My ways as you do toward other matters? Invest your time wisely. Seek My face to see what I am doing, to hear what I am saying. There is so much noise clattering for your attention. Filter out the racket in order to hone and refine your devotion toward Me. I yearn and desire for quality time with you.
Psalm 27:8 (AMP) “You have said, Seek My face [inquire for and require My presence as your vital need]. My heart says to You, Your face (Your presence), Lord, will I seek, inquire for, and require [of necessity and on the authority of Your Word].” Kevin Robinson
