and I'm feeling good

Welcome, folks, to Light of a New Day. This blog project was started back in 2010 by Jake and Sydnee. Over the years, several others have left their mark, by contributing articles, their time, and love for Christ. The blog has went through some dry spells, because - let's face it - we all have moments where posting happy thoughts isn't quite possible. For Jake and Syd both, someone shot the bird dead out of the sky. Unfortunately for them, that bird was a phoenix - and baby, it's back. What you can expect are posts. Maybe not regular, and maybe not all of them will be happy. This phoenix is an honest phoenix, life isn't perfect - and people need to stop acting and teaching like it is. This is Light of a New Day. a REAL day. If you have any thoughts or comments, would like to drop us a contribution, or would like to join our team - drop me a line at trun4rth@yahoo.com

God Bless,

Daily Devotion, September 4th, 10

You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, or his manservant or maidservant, his ox or donkey, or anything that belongs to your neighbor. – Exodus 20:17


I tell you what. If I have a problem with anything in this world today, it is people's inability to abide by this commandment. People covet EVERYTHING about their neighbors. Their looks, oh she's so thin! their money, their perfect boy or girlfriend, their car, their careless parents that let them do anything. Be thankful for what you HAVE! I don't understand this problem. Envy is a freaking deadly sin. Envy for what you don't have and jealousy towards what they have. Leads to greed for those things, and anger when you don't have them. God gave you the power to have anything, you have to work for it, and be faithful to him, and his son. If you do these things, the happiness that follows will be greater than any Porche Carerra or roll of 100$'s.
