Acts 28:15 (April 21st)

Quiet Time Nugget:

When was the last time you thanked God.  In the book of Acts, Paul took the time to thank God.
There are so many things to be thankful for.  From the moment we wake up until we go to sleep, we have numerous opportunities to thank God.  If it wasn't for Him, we would not be here.  If it wasn't for Him we would not have all the wonderful things.  Yes, we all go through illnesses, loss, grief and many other sad things but once we pass them, they make us strong.  Take the time to thank God and take courage.   Courage will allow you to do the next thing in life - those things you have been putting off.  Just by having the courage to place your trust in Him is the beginning to many amazing things to come.

Acts 27:25 (April 20th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Sometimes it is extremely difficult to have faith, to believe in something we cannot see.  We are weak and fall into many temptations.  Thank God for His mercies and understanding. Even though we may stumble and fail, God takes us in His arms, comforts us and guides us.  The Bible says to take heart and have faith. We must believe in that and not allow our faith to diminish.   God does not change His mind like we do.  God does not forget.  If you know and believe exactly what He told you and promised you, then have patient and wait - don't lose faith, it will come.  God always keeps His promises - WAIT!

Acts 26:16 (April 19th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Rise and stand!  If God is with you, do not be afraid to rise and stand and share the good news to others.  God appointed us as a servant and witness.  A servant, someone who is going to listen to what God tells he/she to do.  Has God told you to do something and you are still waiting for confirmation? Please don't wait any longer, do it.  When God tells us to do something (no matter how big or small) we must listen because if you don't, you will be missing out on the greatest blessing that is set to come your way.  Be a witness.  You have been reading the Word of God.  You know the Word of God.  You believe it and follow it.  Why not share it?  Tell others please do not hesitate any longer.  Rise and stand and go!

Acts 24: 14,15 (April 18th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Who do you worship? 'I worship the God of our fathers' is what Paul told those you wanted to kill him.    I hope you can say the same.  I worship God for all He has done for me and continues to do on a daily basis.  God has allowed me to share the gospel.  God has allowed me to teach the gospel.  God has allowed me all the wonderful things that life can give.  I worship Him daily by reading His word, singing, praying, and thanking Him continuously.  God is eternal so your worship should be eternal.  We spend hour talking to others - take sometime to talk to Him too.

Acts 23:11 (April 17th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Have you seen the movie "The Wizard of Oz" where there was a lion who wanted 'courage'.  We do not need to go to a wizard to get courage or anything else.  Go to God with your needs.  Take courage - ask Him.  He will welcome you with open arms.  He will forgive your past and start brand new.  He loves you so much that He send His only son to die for our sins.  No one would do that, I know I won't, but He did so that you and I can have the opportunity to experience His love and mercies everyday.

Acts 22: 8,10 (April 16th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Who are you Lord?  --have you ever heard someone or you have asked this question.  Who is God to you? To me He is my savior, redeemer, healer, comforter, provider, and so much more.  He is much bigger and greater than me but understands everything about me and will never leave me alone.  He forgives the faults I have.  He accepts me with open arms no matter who I am.  He loves us all the same.  He lets me make mistakes but is still there with me to help me learn and grow.  He knows my every thoughts and what is coming next.  So, what shall I do, Lord? All I have to do is trust in Him and He will never fail me. With Him everything is possible.  We just need to have patience because everything will happen when the time is right and He knows when that is.

Acts 21:14 (April 15th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

It is funny to see how little children begin to show their individual personalities at such a tender age.  As we get older and continue to settle in our own ways, we tend to get so comfortable in the way we do things that we don't allow anyone to change us.  However, if we need to make changes and need to let the will of the Lord be done, we have to allow Him.  Talk to Him, tell Him that you want His will to be done in you.  He will re-mold you very gently and will bring you thru.  Do not be afraid.  God will never hurt or embarrass you.  Allow His will do be done and you will be amazed at the results.

Acts 20:35 (April 14th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

I don't know about you but I love to give.  I love to give gifts, my time, and my talents to others.  Christmas and birthdays are wonderful times to give gifts but we need to give gifts at all time - no particular reason - just because.  Have you ever received a gift just because?  Did it make you feel great?  Think of how others would feel if you did that to others too.  Try it, it's a great feeling.  Do you have a talent that can benefit others?  Maybe you can bake, cook, organize, clean, drive, paint, etc and someone can use your help.  The Bible says that you will be more blessed if you give then receive then why not start today.  Take the time to help others and God will bless you immensely.

Acts 19:2 (April 13th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Do you believe?  Do you believe that Jesus Christ is our Savior?  Do you know that He died on the cross, resurrected, and lives?  When Jesus died and rose from the dead He made a promise to us before He went to the heavens to be with His father.  He promised that He would send us the Holy Spirit to guide us and comfort us.  If you believe in Jesus and have accepted Him as your savior then when someone asks you - did you receive the Holy Spirit when you believed? You should say, "YES, because the Holy Spirit is here on earth and those that believe have received Him.

Acts 18:9 (April 12th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Many of us are afraid to tell others that; "Jesus Lives," "Repent of your sins," "He is coming soon to save us," etc.  The Bible tells us not to be afraid and not to be silent because He is with you and no one will attack you.  God does not lie.  God is almighty.  God has never gone back on a promise.  So if you have been wondering and doubting how to speak to probably a co-worker, your boss, your spouse, do not be afraid, He will protect you just be obedient.  There are so many ways to share the gospel.  I just love how the internet has made it so easy.  Take for example this blog, tell your friends about it and point to them those verses that speak on salvation.  God will do the rest.

Acts 17:3 (April 11th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Jesus is Christ. Jesus is Jehovah in the old testament and the Messiah in the New Testament.  He is the son of God.  He died on the cross.  He resurrected from the dead and lives.  He is coming again to take those who believe in Him and give us eternal life.  I believe in Him and I can't wait for the day that I will live eternally in His presence.  I hope you believe in that too.

Acts 16:30-31 (April 10th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

"What must you do to be saved?
Believe in the Lord Jesus, and you will be saved…"
Once you believe that Jesus can save you, there is something that you must do.  It is not difficult and it is available to everyone.  All you have to remember is your ABC's.
 A= Accept (You must accept that Jesus is your savior.  You can say it in your heart, tell someone, write it down, sing it, etc).
B = Believe (This one is a little difficult for some because you can't see God but you have to believe He is alive and can save you from everything you are going through.  Try it, believe in Him and wait and see what starts to happen.)
C = Confess (This is when you tell God - "I accept you as my Saviour, come into my heart, forgive me, help me, guide me, etc.  You can do this quietly in the privacy of your home or you can go to someone who has Jesus Christ in their heart and is saved, they can pray with you)
Check out my link here for more information or just web search "how to accept Jesus as my saviour".

Acts 15:11 (April 9th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

Thank God for His grace everyday!  We would be doomed if it wasn't for His grace.  God is so wonderful.  He knows your every needs and takes the time to listen to everything you have to say; and boy do we have a lot to say and especially ask for.  If you are going through some difficult times and you feel that God has abandoned you - remember His word.  We often forget that God is God. He rescues us daily from so many things.  He carries us in His arms.  He comforts us.  He protects us.  He forgives us again and again.  No human in this world could ever do what He did, does and will continue to do.  Just believe that you will be saved through His wonderful grace and mercy.  B-E-L-I-E-V-E !

Acts 14:23 (April 8th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

We know that God answer prayers but did you know that God does not want us to just pray, He wants us to fast too.  In this day and age it is extremely difficult to fast because we are faced with the smell, pictures (magazines), view (TV), drive by areas that have lines of restaurants - plus, food is so good! But the Bible tells us to "commit", so I too better do that and commit to prayer and fasting.

Acts 13:33 (April 7th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

We are sons and daughters of God.  He has made us.  God has so many wonderful things for us because we are his children.  We all know that parents always try to give their children the best they have - how more so our God who knows us and knows what we need.  All we need to do is ask Him and have faith that He will not fail us. The problem is that we think that God doesn't answer our prayers…oh how wrong you are my friend -- God ALWAYS answers prayers - it might not be the answer you wanted but nevertheless He answers your prayer.  Remember there are three possible answers: "Yes", "No", or "not now-later".

Acts 12:5 (April 6th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

As a christian I believe in the power of prayer.  The Bible mentions of earnest prayer to Him, God.  Through out the Bible we see how different men and women prayed and God answered without hesitation.  We read of stories of God healing, protecting, comforting, feeding, and more because people prayed.  God has not changed and never will so why don't we too pray earnestly for the things that we need like healing, protection, comfort, and feeding and more.  Today is a good day to have earnest prayer to God - just start.

Acts 11:23 (April 5th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

I pray that I am faithful to the Lord until the day I die.  There are so many roads but only one towards Him.  I pray that I continue on that road no matter how difficult it may be.  All roads are difficult but what is at the end of the road is what matters, eternal life.  I must have a steadfast purpose.  I know I can do it with His guidance.  Where do you find this guidance? - In His Word.  I love to read the Bible and this new journey is helping me do that more and more everyday.  (Hope you can join me and of course tell others, spread the gospel!)

Acts 10:35 (April 4th)

Quiet Time Nugget:

"Oh Lord I do fear you!  I respect and trust you Lord!  I believe in you! I come to you everyday with fear and joy knowing that you listen, speak, and answer prayers.  All you ask of me is to do what is acceptable to you."  This I added to my prayer today.
We all tend to ask and ask and ask; - God I need this -God I want that, but am I doing what is right all the time?  I know what is right from wrong!  I just have to make sure that I do it all the time and/or ask Him to continue to teach me to notice when I am not doing what is right.  (I hope you understand what I mean. - Just do what is right - Just Do It!).

Acts 9:31 (April 3rd)

Quiet Time Nugget:

After Jesus died on the cross, resurrected and went up to the heavens, He promised to send us the Holy Spirit, which he did to comfort us.  This verse is very special because it emphasizes that all we need to do is walk trusting that He will comfort us in times of need.  We need to trust in Him.  We need to fear (respect) Him but rest too.  He is powerful but yet gentle.  I must always remember that He cares and trust in him 100%, you should too.

Acts 8:22 (April 2)

Quiet Time Nugget:

We are all sinners and we know that because it is stated in the Bible and we all know the story about Adam and Eve, if you don't please read the book of Genesis.  Because we are all sinners, we sin everyday.  Thank God for his daily mercies and His compassion.  Repent everyday, every minute, every second you realize you have done, looked at, said something that does not please God.  I do this continuously and I will continue but I must remember to pray more.  We all love to say, "I'm sorry" but do we really mean it?  Say you are sorry, repent and really mean it.  I know God forgives us every single time we repent but let us take sometime and pray too.
